it was a block in the side... one hand on the front of his shoulder, one on the back... I'm no homer for any team but flags are missed on virtually every play and unless there is evidence of a blatant missed call calling 'rigged' on every big play a team makes just exposes you as an anti-steelers homer rather than as someone that can present a logical, well-reasoned argument.

..and Ben never raped anyone, James Harrison never illegally hit anyone, and Hines Ward isn't a bitch.

supwithbates confirmed furious

lol steelers

They also seem to forget that the Indy game was one of the one sided called games in NFL history. NFL and refs were trying to do everything they could to get Manning to the SB and Pitt still found a way to win. All the rigtards seem to forget this.

steelers confirmed run like gods for 40 years until

...karma finally took hold. enjoy your downswing.

lol Steelers

nice fail

Also IDC I like the packers if it were any team but the Steelers playing them I wouldve been rooting like hell for the pack. Seeing Aaron Rodgers celebrating there makes me happy for him... he's a good guy, a good player, (much better guy than Big Ben, I would agree) and certainly deserves this.

Big Ben raping people? As he wasn't brought to trial and proven guilty in a court of law, I have no way of knowing. It's possible that he did, it's also possible she was a stupid little girl hoping to make some money. I know he was accused, and I'm aware the countless eyewitness reports confirm he was being super-sketchy to say the least, putting himself in a ******ed-bad situation. I am by no means a Big Ben fan; I think his actions were despicable and I'm not truly convinced he's reformed although the media have anointed him as such. I would not be upset if the Steelers were to cut him, although I would question the timing if they were to do it tomorrow...


RE: James Harrison and illegal hits; I would fully agree he hits people illegally. I also contend that these new rules are stupid and their enforcement is subjective. Leading with your helmet is especially dumb, as helmets are atop one's head and leading with your shoulder is necessarily leading with your helmet. Test it out. Lean forward 'dropping your shoulder' and tell me what the farthest forward part of your body is. That's right, it's your head. Helmet-to-helmet blows are more often than not the result of the person being hit making an adjustment; as anyone that's played or even watched football knows, lowering your center of gravity is the best way to gain leverage in a tackle and throw force into it. It's also the best way to bounce off a tackle; therefore, both players lowering their center of gravity, and the tackler necessarily having his helmet as the forward-most part of his body, even more-so due to him lowering his center of gravity; both players making rapid adjustments... helmet to helmet contact is an inevitablity a certain percentage of the time.

Re: Ward... Ward blocks players, and he hits them hard, lowering his center of gravity as he does. He has to do this even more than other players, as he's a tiny WR hitting linebackers with 33% more mass than him (and leveling them too, I might add). Whether he hits them head-on or when they aren't looking is a function of where he's coming from on the field, and certainly not by design. Those claiming he won't smash someone in their face are simply being willfully ignorant.

the superbowl wasn't karma it was a superior team beating the steelers ffs if you're going to troll at least say something that makes sense

this is a really good point, just makes peyton "loveable loser" manning even moar pathetic with his chokes

Applying poker terms to other areas of life is cool.

Variance

Yes, fumble recoveries are high variance plays. I mean I don't get why this is so lol and keeps being brought up. I mean you have an oblong piece of inflatable leather that you don't know how it is going to ever bounce when it hits the ground.

as is dodging rape charges

fyp

I am saying that if one team has the ball on the opponent's four yard line or whatever, and there's like 20 seconds to play in the half, that the odds of that team scoring 3-7 points is fairly high, whereas the odds of the other team scoring at all, much less seven points, is close to nil. All this other crap you're writing is right out of the "we had more heart" discount bin at cliches-Я-us.

I'm glad to see the Steelers get the haters furious even when they lose the Super Bowl, not many teams are awesome enough to do that. Don't worry guys, they'll be there at least once more this decade so you will have a chance to LOL, be mad, and hate some more then.

you may be confusing lol with being mad.

bump

but the steelers made a play and the cardinals made a mistake, I don't see your point. What are the odds of larry fitzgerald turning a simple slant into a 65 yd touchdown? It happened, and it's what blew the game open. The steelers forced like 3 punts in the prior 4 possessions of AZ before that happened, so the odds of them marching down the field there could not have been that great, yet they scored. Stop dealing with 'what ifs' and then using them to support a ridiculous assertion that arizona were 70% favorites to win that game before it started; that's a pretty significant edge

Much much much > than the chance of the Harrison play. Don't be a moran you make Steelers fans look dumb. I may just start trolling the Steeler fans in here also because all of them except bowens and Benny appear to be pretty dumb.
