:woot:

We need all hands on board for the Steelers!

Another goodie:

Q: What do you expect from the team (the Patriots) this week?

DB: It's going to be a different team; I will tell you all that right now. I'm saying that right now. For one, it started today. It started today. We're expecting a totally different team.

OhPleaseOhPleaseOhPleaseOhPlease.....

I'd love to see Deion capture a little of the magic he had in 2004 in Pittsburgh.

Part of me knows it's just not right, but that bit of Branch waving goodbye to the Steelers as he scampers past them on that reverse TD is awesome.

Corey Dillon ... sigh.

Good. He's clearly not been healthy for the last few games and any good news on that front is excellent.

That was a great play, all except the stupid "waving". I don't get it. Never saw any of that in the films from the 50's and 60's. I'd like to hear someone tell me what the point is of celebrating before you get in the endzone or slowing down and taunting the other team when you have clear sailing to the endzone. I mean, are these guys 8 years old or adults?

I thought it was hilarious.

I'm just sick and tired of hearing how the Steelers are just a "tough, blue collar" football team that comes out to work everyday. Rodney Harrison was a dirty player, everyone knew that. Douches like Hines Ward / James Harrison aren't dirty though, they're just "tough" guys playing good old "Steeler" football. That's why I could care less about any taunting done to them. Same thing with the "classy" Chargers and Lights Out dance on their homefield emblem. Sometimes the other team deserves it.

Great news coming from Branch!

Goes without saying that we need him at 100%, so hopefully he was being truthful.

I really enjoyed those three interview segments.

That was fun to watch again.

I don't know what you guys think but that was kind of a refreshing read.....be interesting to see the team's performance on SUnday after such open acknowledgements of a very poor performance.

I hope so. If the WR's are healthy it WILL be a completely different offense.

When all you have to hear all season is how the Steelers are better and when all you have to watch is highlights of them celebrating like they won the Super Bowl after the Halloween game with that idiot Joey Porter doing his "THEY AIN'T NEVA, EVA, NEVA EVA EVA EVA", schtick... you're going to be in the mood to celebrate kicking their asses when it really counts.

This is def great news. He looked better in cleveland than he did in SD by a large margin. In SD he looked like he shouldn't have been out there. Hopefully by Sun he'll be back to running those crisp routes we love from Deion.
