Although making fun of my team, at least Jimmy has a bit of a sense of humor. crikey.
can't we all just... get a bong?
That was a rule that was correctly interpreted and the rule is in place this very day the exact same way it was back then.Like your gift AFC Divisional Game against the Raiders?

Meanwhile, the gift the Steelers got against the Oilers (TD incorrectly ruled out of bounds) was the #1 case in support of implementing instant replay.
Well if people are going to bring up championships from the 70's then you leave yourself wide open to bringing up bad calls from those championship season. Besides, who's arguing..? That is among the worst calls in sports history, no arguing about it.Are we honestly arguing over bad calls from the 70's?
You apparently were not smart enough to understand the logic of my post, so let me try again:Who cares? No Steeler fan brings up the Oakland game until Pats fans go bringing up the superbowl. It goes both ways. If you want to concede your first superbowl, we can concede our FIFTH.
The Patriots were the beneficiary of the correct call and correct interpretation of a rule that, for all your whining, has never been changed.
Great post Warden, you are one clever troll, NOT ONE SINGLE TROLL who has ever come here has mentioned that game before you.
Brilliant; what's next, you're going to call the Patriots cheaters and classless for running up the score?
Why don't you at least grow a pair and let all of us know what team you are a fan of.
We're all dying to know, so please enlighten us..........
Gee, isn't this fun.
I'd say a Stoolers fan running to defend cracky; since you didn't mention the Stoolers in the "I'm a fan of team X/whatever team plays the Patriots this week" line from your previous post, that would be my guess.
I can understand why you hate the Patriots; I'd hate them too if they came to my house twice in the AFCCG and dominated my team like they did to yours.............
Although, I never actually met a Patriots fan until after 2001.
It's funny because it's true.
How is it true? Please, explain that to me. Go do your research about sales and attendance and explain to me how there were no fans before 2001. Toddle along now, the big internet is full of lots of information.
I'm sure you had fans who attended the games. It's just that those fans wore bags on their heads.
Okay, now go get the attendance records like I asked. I don't believe they show the stats of bags on peoples heads, but get them anyway. You want to make a statement, back it up with fact.
As I said, I don't doubt you filled stadiums prior to 2001. Aside from that, what stats can I offer you? I can only go off my personal experiences and impressions. Prior to 2001, I knew some Pats fans in college etc. All kept a low profile and clung tightly to the Red Sox. I never heard a peep from these bang wagon jumpers until 2001. Since then, they are all born again believers, and quite obnoxious at that. Until 2001, they were all content to hope for the best while supporting MLB of all things.
When compared to Steeler fans, there is NO comparison. We have fans all over the country and travel better than any team in the NFL. We actually have a tradition to speak of in which fathers pass their love of their team onto their sons. We are the very model of long term greatness with 7 losing seasons since 1971. You are the flavor of the week, and your fans will jump to another band wagon when Brady breaks a leg.

So now you are just saying that Boston loves the Red Sox? Wow! Where'd you get that hard to find information? There's quite a bit of deep rooted history there in case you live under a rock. News Flash..there's Celtics fans here too. I also heard there's Bruins fans.
And your extensive knowledge of New England fans is a couple of guys from college? Wow, that's a pretty extensive database.
I know the history of the Steelers, and I respect it. Pittsburgh has nothing else to root for.
And obnoxious? We are obnoxious, but, seriously, you are a Steeler fan..pot meet kettle.
I didn't bring up the Celtics because the NBA has become one step removed from pro wresting. I was giving you a pass on that one.
I didn't bring up the Bruins because they wear black and gold. :rocker:
The Pirates have a bit of history as well, and we are making more history there as we speak. The Bucs are making a run at the longest streak in the history of MLB for consecutive losing seasons. Unfortunately, that is a different story and a perfect example of just how far baseball as a sport has fallen. What real joy can come from winning a championship that has everything to do with money and very little to do with heart, character, skill, leadership, etc.?
Actually if you are claiming the Bruins, we can claim to have the Pens. The Pens are one of the most exciting young teams in hockey and just signed a lease to stay in Pittsburgh another 40 years in a new arena.
Enough about all those silly sports... All I am saying is Steeler fans make the world go round. The Rooneys represent everything that is good in sports today, which is sometimes hard to find. Just look at superbowl XL. The attendance was 90% black and gold. Steeler fan pride has no equal.
