Brett Favre announces his retirement! (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3276034) What will the NFL be without Favre? Congrats to the ironman and future hall of famer on a brilliant career.

A lot of movement (http://www.nfl.com/freeagency) too...

Mel Kiper gives the Kansas City Chiefs the only 'A' grade in the draft?!? (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/draft08/columns/story?columnist=kiper_jr_mel&id=3357479)

Well, Now that the NHL season is over...what else is there to look forward too.

Hall Of Fame Game Aug. 3rd. Less than two months away.

Go STEELERS

This.... (http://www.pdga.com/msgboard/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=831146&an=0&page=3#Post8 31146) :D

HERE WE GO STEELERS!!!

I can't wait to see how good Woodley is going to be this year. Towards the end of last season he was sure looking strong. Hoping Sweed makes a difference for Big Ben. Just hope our secondary has it's problems fixed.

I haven't even really been keeping up with the Black and Gold with the Pens on the run they were on. Have they signed any of thier rookies yet?

Maybe he is not really retiring?

Who Cares!!! Great player but I'm sick of hearing about him.

How about this (http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/8322622/Druckenmiller-trying-to-strike-deal-to-buy-Steelers) then.

Mel Kiper gives the Kansas City Chiefs the only 'A' grade in the draft?!? (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/draft08/columns/story?columnist=kiper_jr_mel&id=3357479)



Well yay. Show me the MONEY ... Herm.

How about this (http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/8322622/Druckenmiller-trying-to-strike-deal-to-buy-Steelers) then.



I say come on "other brothers" keep it in the family and just sell it to Dan and Art II....please! Don't know anything about this other guy, but I'd hate to see it leave the Rooney's after this long. Another 75 years sounds way better to me....

Here's a better question,

What does it mean when a player is pretty much washed up one year, is over the age to play well, and then suddenly is a super star the next year?

If Brett comes back, I vote for a blood test.

Go STEELERS



Steelers suck! Go Bengals!

Go cowboys.

Go STEELERS



Steelers suck! Go Bengals!



LMFAO. And the Bengals record last year was...

bungles will finish last in the north

MC, I used to think you were a pretty cool dood, now Im not so sure. BUNGLES.. C'MON MAN!!!! Are you a hardened criminal as well?!?

bungles are back

next dilfer



as in the next QB to take baltimore to the super bowl?

baby steps... a playoff win first

dilfer-esque as in winning with a sub 70 rating, just dont turn it over

wont cut it against the steelers, but maybe you can sweep the bungles and browns this year

maybe the pats should be trying to convince culpepper to unretire real fast for one more year

&lt;&lt;&lt;wacko for flacco :cool:



But he's from....Delaware.


(Actually, I saw him play against SIU in the semifinals last year. He looked very good. Wasn't he a PSU washout?)

Flacco washed out of Pitt, not Penn State. He couldn't beat out QB Tyler Palko for the starting job. (who was marginal at best in college, went undrafted, and briefly spent time as the 3rd-string QB of the Saints before being cut)

Flacco's career at Delaware was stellar however, even if it was against I-AA competition. And despite being a Steelers fan and sworn enemy of the Ravens, I drafted Flacco in three fantasy football dynasty leagues as my QB of the future. With his size and arm strength, I envision him as the next Ben Roethlisberger. :cool:

they'll just issue apology letters. You have no sympathy from me, okay well maybe a little.

The Steelers must have gotten ten of those friggin' letters in the late 90's early 2000's.... its total BS!

and btw Cent, your chargers did get probed twice and it wasnt purdy!

It's sad when the official admits he was wrong but there is a rule in place saying that it doesn't matter.

How can it be an incomplete pass when the ball goes backwards?

This Cowboys Eagles contest was like a video game.

WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY...YOU'RE ON PROBATION FROM TEAM YINZER FOR THE NEXT MONTH WITH THAT COMMENT

:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: :mad::mad::mad:

dude, you know I will NEVER, EVER, EVER, even if I live in Bangladesh or some crap, miss a Stiller game or root for anyone besides them... however, I do have the ability to look at things subjectively. Our secondary is suspect at best and Donovan is looking like his prime self. Waxing the Brownies and then hanging the whole game with the most potent offense in football. It's not looking good KP.

on the other hand, maybe the Stillers will run the ball early and control the clock. That is all I can see helping us on Sunday.

Hochuli=No Super Bowl (http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=ap-nfl-blowncall&amp;prov=ap&amp;type=lgns)

That's fine and dandy BUT, Rule #1 of Team Yinzer - No member will ever say that a Pittsburgh team will lose, even the Buccos.

I just got emails from Josh and Jeff saying the Steelers are going to lose on 11/16...

I do have the ability to look at things subjectively



subjectively speaking, Cent, the boys in powder blues dont have a prayer. :D

I just got emails from Josh and Jeff saying the Steelers are going to lose on 11/16...



Jeff who? It certainly wasn't me.

In fact, I will be on hand in Philadelphia this Sunday to see the Iggles go down as they face a real defense, and in Pittsburgh in November to see the Chargers get demolished. The zebras won't be needed to ensure the outcome of that game. :cool:

See Stella ^^^ Jeff has the right additude.

Jeff - you can have Stella's Team Yinzer Membership for the one month that he will be on probation for saying the Steelers will lose to the Eagles.
Also, be careful out there. I'll give you a dollar to send us a picture of you wearing a Steelers Jersey and waving your Terrible Towel from the game.:D

Also, be careful out there. I'll give you a dollar to send us a picture of you wearing a Steelers Jersey and waving your Terrible Towel from the game.:D



I have been debating that issue for several months now. I have gone to Steelers games in full gear (jersey, hard hat, Terrible Towel) vs. the Giants and the Jets at Giants Stadium in NJ, &amp; against the Ravens in Baltimore and not had a problem. I also went to a preseason game vs. the Eagles at the Linc a few years ago and there was also no issues, but a lot of people are telling me that I would be taking my life in my own hands if I go decked out for regular season game. :confused:

Do not go to Phila dressed like that Grass.

I really wouldn't do that if I were you.

What's the worst that could happen?

Cent, you ever go to an Eagles game with out of town gear on?... clearly not or you wouldnt ask.

minimal, beer dumped all over you... with outside potential for broken face.

yes, its that bad.

I knew the answer...Are you that much of a fan?

Come on Jeff, I think one dollar is worth having some beer spilled on you... :D

we aren't fly-by-night over here (not implying you are with your chargers). It is really in our blood. seriously. I get cut and depending on location I bleed black or <font color="yellow">gold </font>.

http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/images/200709/20070916pd2testfans_500.jpg

To bad your still on probation from Team Yinzer!!! If you get cut within the next month you'll bleed <font color="pink">PINK </font>.

whatchit KP. I may have a slightly torn rotator cuff but that doesnt prevent me from STRIKING WITH KNEES to prove my dedication!

GO STILLERS N'AT!

The only way you can get off probation is if LaGrassa wears his Stillers jersey N'at to the Filthadelphia Eagles game.

That's the only way...or if the Bucco's win the World Series

if the Bucco's win the World Series



Pigs have a greater chance of flying than that occurring. :D

Whats the big deal. It cant be as bad as a Raiders game.

Does Oakland have a Judicial system inside the stadium? Philadelphia has a judge and jail inside the stadium.

Whats the big deal. It cant be as bad as a Raiders game.



Indeed, I've heard that wearing the jersey of the opposing team in the "Black Hole" seating section at Raiders games can be hazardous to your health.

But at Eagles games, THE ENTIRE STADIUM is the equivalent to the Black Hole. :D

When I was stationed in San Diego in 2000 I went to a Raider-Charger game at the Q and a Raider fan stabbed a Charger fan. Raider fan are crazy.

I NEVER thought I'd say this......bring back Marty. This Herm Edward's/Pop-Warner style ain't cutting it here...down right embarrassing. :mad:

why? so you can go 14-2 then 0-1 in the playoffs?

lol Been there and done that...

yinzers gonna be sorely dissappointed come MNF next week! the battle for 1st in the AFC north will take a purple turn as big ben turns black and blue.

stillers squeaked by the brownies while the ravens rolled.

http://www.baltimoresun.com/media/photo/2008-09/42490383.jpg

yeah flacco crushed that secondary...

NFL math = FAIL

Jeff,

Sorry to be the one to inform you...You are no longer allowed to go to away games!!! If you go to one more away game your YINZER membership will be suspended for life!

That was one sad, sad game. :(

why didnt we kick the field goal?

at least the D looked good, secondary no longer questionable...

why didnt we kick the field goal?

at least the D looked good, secondary no longer questionable...



If we are asking the why questions...Why didn't they change Big Ben's drops. Seemed like when he did take a 2 or 3 step drop he could hit the quick slant or curl....but then they would go right back to a 5 step drop and get sacked again.

The D did look good. Hopefully Ben's hand isn't to bad. Maybe this whoopin will wake them up and get things going right for next week vs. the Ravens.

Worst thing is this game just had to follow Dallas beating Philly...now I get to hear all about how the Cowgirls are better because they beat Philly and we didn't....and how they are the greatest all week. :(


HERE WE GO STEELERS...HERE WE GO!!!

or max-protect shotgun and more draws. 6 sacks and an int in 9 pass plays in the 2nd Q... wow

yinzers gonna be sorely dissappointed come MNF next week! the battle for 1st in the AFC north will take a purple turn as big ben turns black and blue.


not so much... 1st despite no sTarTing RB, NT, or DE

TThanks for playing

BIG win... does arians know what a screen pass is?

1st despite no starting, back up, or back up to the back up RB.


HERE WE GO STEELERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

was there ever any explanation for that INT? that was such a momentum killer, up 3 on the 50... no 1st downs the rest of the half after that i think

I never heard anything official...but just from the looks of it, he tried to pull it back at the last second and it was to late(probably some to do with his hand injury from Philly)....so he sent out a lame duck. I agree that was a huge momentum killer. I bet if that hadn't of happened the game would not have ben anywhere near as close.

Hopefully they can get through this week with a W, and get healthy for the bUNgles at home....they always seem to give the Steelers trouble at home for some reason.


Najeh's back...I always did like him anyway. Guess we'll see what kind of shape he kept himself in this weekend.

None of the Ravens make excuses. If their offense scores a TD at any point of the game instead of 3 field goals, or their defense doesn't allow a 90 YARD DRIVE at the end of the game, then any questionable referee calls don't matter.

Additionally, according to the NFL Digest of Rules:


A receiver is deemed to be in possession of a catch when both feet touch down in bounds while the receiver demonstrates control of the football. Should a receiver make a legal catch of the ball with both feet in bounds in the end zone, a touchdown shall be awarded even if no part of the ball was deemed to break the plane of the goal line while in possession of the receiving player.

it was a 92 yd drive

Was really too close to call?? YUP!
While I don't really care either way, there was not indisputable evidence, IMHO, to overturn the NO-TD call on the field. Steelers should have had the ball on the 2-3" line and THEN had to have made the decision on whether to go for the win or kick the game tying FG.
Had the REF's called it a TD, then I don't think there was indisputable evidence to overturn the call...and Steelers get the TD.

I didn't not know this rule until yesterday.....and I have already had to explain it to those( mainly cowboy fans) that work for me today.(that were giving me a hard time about it).

While I agree there was nothing that showed with out a doubt the ball crossed the line, you could easily see he had 2 feet down. By the rule above, there should be no arguments on the subject.



Besides even if it was a bad call(which it wasn't), it's not like the Steelers haven't had their share of bad calls go the other way.

All that really matters is.......

I could say the same thing of you, but won't!

From the same NFL Digest you quoted from:

Touchdown: When any part of the ball, legally in possession of a player inbounds, breaks the plane of the opponent�s goal line, provided it is not a touchback.

It just didn't make sense to me to over turn the call on the field with THIS rule in mind. That's all. The rule you quoted seems to contradict this one and vice versa. I don't care enough to get personal about it though!

If the implication is that the referees somehow favor the Steelers, check this out:


From: http://www.postgazette.com/pg/08355/936498-66.stm


The Steelers have not seen an opponent called for offensive holding since the fourth quarter of the Nov. 3 game against the Washington Redskins, when left tackle Chris Samuels was penalized for holding Harrison.

That's six games -- 24 quarters -- without a holding penalty against the best pass-rush team in the AFC.

"implication?" I could not have been more clear! Quote: "That's all."

I'd have to admit though, it is fun to see your (steel) cage get rattled from time to time! lol

I have been REAL QUITE for along time about the steelers getting breaks from the refs BUT .........

The next person who says that PITT gets good breaks from the refs are NOT watching how JAMES HARRISON ( who was called defensive player of the year ) has gotten RIDDEN to the ground each of the last 5 games at least one time if not 2-3 times and NO bleeping flag . The end for me was just about 15 min ago with san diego driving and they literally tackled james and the WHOLE bleeping stadium saw it and you guessed it NO BLEEPING FLAG.

Ok I am better now .

We know the Steelers are going to win they have the REFS on there side.

sounds good to me

I just want to be busy tomorrow.

...if Pitt stays with the blitz Warner will make them pay with alot of 10 - 15 yarders...

AZ 31 / Pitt 20

If Pitt doesn't blitz much:

Pitt 45 / AZ 17

Just a thought. We'll see... Go CARDS!

We know the Steelers are going to win they have the REFS on there side.



well, the STEALERS certainly had the refs on their side a few SuperBowls back when Seattle kicked their butts all over the field all day in everything but the final score. what a sad day that was for the perennial battle of the $how vs. the Game... :mad:

if Arizona can play D like they did against Dallas earlier this year they will win. Big Ben is tough and had a lot of crucial breaks go his way in the AFC championship, but if Arizona's pass rush can hassle him all day, Warner &amp; company will triumph. Go Arizona! :D

Texas Judge gives 7 year old right to decide custody.

Dallas, TX, December 31, 2008

A seven year old boy was at the center of a county courtroom drama yesterday when he challenged a court ruling over who should have custody of him. The boy had a history of being beaten by his parents and the judge initially awarded custody to his aunt, in keeping with child custody law and regulation requiring that family unity be maintained to the highest degree possible.

The boy surprised the court when he proclaimed that his aunt beat him more than his parents and he adamantly refused to live with her. When the judge then suggested that he live with his grandparents, the boy cried and said that they also beat him. After considering the remainder of the immediate family and learning that domestic violence was apparently a way of life among them, the judge took the unprecedented step of allowing the boy to propose who should have custody of him.

After two recesses to check legal references and confer with the child welfare officials, the judge granted temporary custody to the Dallas Cowboys, whom the boy firmly believes are not capable of beating anyone.

"If you want to see the Pittsburgh Steelers, invite us when we don't win the Super Bowl. As far as I'm concerned, he would have invited Arizona if they had won.''
--Steelers linebacker James Harrison, explaining why he will refuse to accompany his team on a trip to the White House to see President Obama, in quite possibly the most nonsensical quote ever uttered by a professional athlete.

(from SI's MMQB)

who cares? as long as he keeps runnin through your o-line like they're pop-warner, he could say the moon is made out of cheese. silly ravens fans, cant talk about anything on the field cause they cant win. 0 for 3 last year md. maybe ya ll can get 1 this year...

You are correct Mr. Warlocks00, it is always Steelers season here in da burg. Only when another Pittsburgh sports team is in the playoffs does steelers season stop. Good thing for us that only happens with the Pens!

Make no sense at all that she would wait a full year before doing anything about it. The story sounds kind of fishy to me.....

A lady tried to accuse Bettis of this a few years ago as well, she figured out she wasn't going to win so she dropped the charges.

what? do you have terrible towels stuffed in your ears? big ben is a sexual predator!

i can't wait to see if charlie batch can take a hit. i bet he can't. suggs will flatten him.

i'm not getting my hopes up. big bennifer has plenty of hush money and goodell would only suspend him if he were black. beating the steelers will be that much more sweet with that big mongo at the helm anyway.

what? do you have terrible towels stuffed in your ears? big ben is a sexual predator!


To quote a previous post not according to the US justice system. At least not yet....besides that, maybe you've heard of "Innocent until proven guilty" not the other way around. Again I'll point out the Bettis deal a few years ago.....there are all kinds of people out there that will do and/or say anything to try and get rich quick.

Roethlisberger's lawyer releases accuser's e-mails, says they prove she's lying (http://www.rgj.com/article/20090818/SPORTS/90818021/1018/SPORTS)

Look's like Roethlisberger's accuser's (and md90210's) claim against Big Ben is fast running out of air.

lawyers will say anything. rottenburger is a villain!

Read the e-mails for yourself at that link.

Your smear campaign against your team's archrival QB is about as lame as it gets. Ray Lewis is a villian too (http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/story/7300688), but you don't see me crowing me about it. I'd rather focus on the results on the field, which in the last two years, speak for itself.

Well, it would be awesome to have Shaq as Ben's backup until hoops gets underway :D

What's funny about this post is I had a Cowgirl fan ask me last year what it felt like to be a fan of the 3rd place team in a divisions.....meaning he was predicting the Steelers to finish exactly where you put them...
What was really funny about it is the cowgirls ended up finishing 3rd in the their division.....mean while the Steelers won the AFC North and we all know how the season turned out. Can you say....SIXBURGH!!!



Roethlisberger will not last another season...Parker is garbage too.

Won't last another year???? This year Big Ben is going for his Supebowl MVP.
Parker is garbage? He holds the record for the longest run in Superbowl history...Guess one man's garbage is another man's treasure.

One run doesn't mean he is a good RB, his stats are weak. Can't catch out of the backfield, gets injured

2 days until the Titans completely destroy Roethlisberger. Out for the season...

I know the prediction was for this year....I'm just tell you someone predicted the same exact same thing last year and we all see how that turned out.

How good of a "predicter" are you: I'm sure you predicted the AFC Divisional game to go different last year didn't you?

Man I love football season...brings out all kind of trash talking! BRING IT ON!!!!

well, i guess when your team wins 3 playoff games in 14 yrs and gets flaTTened by the steelers over that same span (1-7)... i can understand the hate.

unfortunately, your hatred blinds you from all sense of ReaLity. piTT has the easiest schedule this year, and at worst would take 2nd in the North even if Batch went down for the season right after Ben.

if your confidence remains, let me know if you would like to wager ANYTHING on any and / or all of your laughable prognostications.

unfortunately, your hatred blinds you from all sense of ReaLity. piTT has the easiest schedule this year, and at worst would take 2nd in the North even if Batch went down for the season right after Ben.

realITY aside, your schedule is easiest on paper based on last year's records. Quit living in the past. Some teams get better, and some teams get worse.


if your confidence remains, let me know if you would like to wager ANYTHING on any and / or all of your laughable prognostications.

I don't wager with disc golfers anymore...McCoy, Tyson, Schwebeger, and MTL are the only REAL gamblers as far as I'm concerned. Not only do 24 players owe me from winning fantasy football 2 years in a row, Frederick Doot jacked me too.

Plus, when I'm right, that will be satisfaction enough.

Nice signature file, Cent. While I typically stick to discussing the action on the NFL field (whose results speak for itself the last few years) it's hard to resist commenting on the off-the-field antics of one of your favorite players. You must be so proud. :rolleyes: :D

That really carries weight when the guy who handles your balls in accused of worse...Most people can see that Merriman is being scammed by a total horse. His only crime is that he came within 100ft. of that disease bag...

Yeah...The Ravens will need all the help in the world to win the division! I'm assuming that's why you are rooting for the Titans?!?

the super bowl chumps looked pretty sloppy last night.

You should no we don't care about style points...a win is a win.

You should no we don't care about style points...a win is a win.

kinda. i wouldn't be too confident with how sloppy they looked. losing polamalu has to hurt.

Parker is garbage...


Looked real good last night...You guys rushed for about 9 yards per quarter.

kinda. i wouldn't be too confident with how sloppy they looked.

It was game 1 vs. one of the best team in the NFL...things aren't suppose to look easy. We'll save that for when we play the Ravens. As it stands now...we are 1-0 and in first place in the entire NFL. How could we be upset.... The Steelers just started thier march to 7!!!



losing polamalu has to hurt.

WHY...WHY...WHY...did he have to be on the cover of that stinking madden game??? WHY!!!!!!! When are NFL players going to learn, you don't go on that cover! Now I am just wondering when Fitz is going to go down, I drafted him in fantasy land and didn't even think about it.

36 yards rushing per game will not win the division. Stats are more than fantasy football...

BTW- LT is not picture of health over the last couple of years....isn't he about to lose his job to Sproles???(just so we are clear I am a big LT fan, just adding some fuel)


I can't believe I missed this...No, LT is not in danger of losing his job to Sproles, Bennett, or Johnson. He will carry the rock 300+ times and easily put up 1,200 yards and 10 td's. Willie Parker on the other hand is in danger of losing his job. Sounds like Mewelde will surpass Mendenhall and Parker on the depth chart.

Willie Parker on the other hand is in danger of losing his job. Sounds like Mewelde will surpass Mendenhall and Parker on the depth chart.

I was just telling a buddy of mine that very thing this morning. He had sent me an email telling me that he had drafted Willie....my reply was, "you better pick up Moore cause I can see him taking Willie's job this year". I've always like Moore, even when he was in Minn., then when I heard he was coming to SteelTown, I was very happy....as he is a very versitile back. Willie is a 1 dimensional back, if he can get to the corner he's gone, but not good at catching, and really not that good at running between the tackles. Especially with our run blocking this year. .

And I was more joking with you about LT losing his job....Sproles is Ok and all, but he's no LT. But then again no one is......

36 yards rushing per game will not win the division. Stats are more than fantasy football...

54 is all it took to win the Superbowl.......

54 is all it took to win the Superbowl.......

exactly... but what do chargers know bout that?

how about joe flacco? 300+ yds passing, 3 tds, at least 2 completions to 7 different players. joe cool is the real deal. ray rice very quietly ran for 107 yds and willy mcgahee looked somewhat dominant on his carries as well. heap had a big game too! granted it was against the chefs.

am i excited about the Ravens' O? you betcha

i was in a sky box smack dab on the fitty for the win yesterday. what a beautiful day for football in a great football town. GO RAVENS!

I'd be worried about a defense which gave up 24 points at home to the Chefs who were starting a backup QB.

we all know you are genuinely worried about the ravens' D with good reason.

there were a few wrinkles to be worked out (not nearly as many as the men in yellow) but the D played pretty solid. all teams are dangerous on opening weekend, even the chefs.

despite what the score may lead you to believe, the ravens held the chefs to under 200 yds total offense. 1 chefs td was scored off of a blocked punt, another was set up on a 70 yd interception return off of a bobbled pass (joey flacco made the tackle at the 5).

you can doubt the ravens' D all you want. we know it's simply just fear of the legendary 'play like a raven' defense. ask big bennifer who he fears the most. the greatest D of all time ('00 ravens) gave up 36 pts to jacksonville in week 2 but won the game with 39 pts. they went on to set records and win the super bowl. mind you that was the only defense in super bowl history to not allow pts.

haloti ngata'nother yard, t-sizzle, ray ray, trevor pryce and ed reed will lead this D to dominance ONCE AGAIN!

terrible towels are yellow for a reason.

the bus agrees that the steelers are a little worrisome, especially at RB. if i were a fan of the yellow people, i'd have slapped my forehead pretty well after that RB ran straight into big bennifer last thursday. c'mon jeffrey, fess up, i know you did that!

I'm guessing you are talking about Mendenhale? I will tell you I slapped my head.....I'm not worried about the RBs themself, I'm more worried about the O-line run blocking.

The D though....while of course it hurts to lose a player like Troy. We have been without him before and came out just fine...might even make us better. Then when he comes back we'll just be that much stronger. But the Bus saying Harrison isn't a play maker?? Come on, did he not watch the superbowl last year...that INT for a TD was a great play made by a playmaker!!!! I don't think you can win the D-MVP without being a playmaker. Then you've got Woodley on the other side, he's a playmaker in the making.

HERE WE GO STEELERS!!!!

...might even make us better.

do steelers fans believe everything printed in the post-gazzette?
