You have a lot to learn about life. You hardly belong on a conservative forum with that attitude. I expect the next thing out of you with that attitude is “you all owe me”.
Detroit Lions - Four-Time NFL Champions, I like the sound of that.
Roethlisberger threw the game.
Just my opinion of course.
Exactly. What a country! A two time rapist gets charges dropped thanks to being who he is... not what he didn’t do.
If he weren’t a NFL QB, yes he’d be in the can.
In this case, I pulled against Ben R as much as anything. Joe Regular guy would be in jail awaiting trial, not playing.
Sure, once the Pack has their #1 back (Grant), #1 tight end (Finley), and a couple of the defensive linebackers back, the Pack will be even stronger. Big Ben was outplayed by Rodgers by a mile. The last drive was an embarassment to the supposed experienced Steelers. How the Steelers are the ‘best’ is beyond me
There were never any charges to begin with so how could they be dropped?
Biggest loser in this SB was Jerry Jones and The NFL. Bad weather, falling ice, having to remove seats, Aguilara screwing up the anthem, Black Eyed Peas sounding atrocious.

I agree on Tomlin. Great leader and motivator. Not sure on his X and Os (don’t follow closely enough). But his record speaks for itself. He’s very impressive.
You can bet he wanted them to lose tonight as well. The Rooney family heartily endorsed Hussein for Prez, and is one of his biggest donors.
The Steelers are one of the oldest teams, starting in 1933, Never won a Championship until 1975. Took them 42 years to win one Title!
The fifth-oldest franchise in the NFL, the Steelers were founded on July 8, 1933 by Arthur Joseph Rooney. Originally named the Pittsburgh Pirates, they were a member of the Eastern Division of the 10-team NFL. The other four current NFL teams in existence at that time were the Chicago (Arizona) Cardinals, Green Bay Packers, Chicago Bears and New York Giants.11/30/2009

This Packer win will be my most memorable. I watched all their super bowl wins as well as the run they had in the 60s cahampionships-we always expected them to win. But this one tops them all because this team NEVER gave up. They fought, clawed, scratched and screwed up, but, never gave up.
That says a lot about the coaches as well as the caliber of the team.
As for the Steelers? This year they had the worst record ever for any pro team against playoff teams over the course of the season. GB had to win every game to fist, get into the playoffs and then win to stay in there..they never gave up.
When the milk goes bad in your fridge, do you break out the dixie cups and label them yogurt?
He’s not really an Xs and Os guys. He let’s the co-ordinators call the plays, he’s into top end player coaching, setting the tempo and structure. Really anybody that’s ever seen an interview with Tomlin knows exactly why they hired him, if you created a fictional “typical Steeler coach” he’d wind up talking just like Tomlin, he’s right out of a work of fiction. I’m glad to have him as my team’s 3rd coach in my lifetime and I hope he’s the last.
How sweet it is!
...and Staubach!
“I’m havin’ cheeseburgers an’ buffalo wings! Shelley here is sending out the calorie cops to bust anyone else who tries to have their own, tho’...”

NASCAR Baby!!!
