I had that same thought tonight especially when a few Bengal players walked off the field. Then, when the two last penalties happened. I’m a Steelers fan but they were losing the game in the 4th quarter until then. Those two Bengal players lost the game for their team.
My husband, huge Steeler fan, said tonight that he’s losing interest in football and that it’s become just a bunch of thugs and drama queens and he’s having trouble rooting for that. I’ve felt that way about pro football for quite a few years and now it’s tainting college football for me too.
Two thugs lost the game for the Bengals.
You weren’t paying much attention to the game if you thought the Steelers were outplayed at the end. The truth was, nearly all of the Bungals yardage on the last two drives were awarded by the refs, and were not earned. In addition to that, the Bengals should never have had the lead. The refs whistled a fumble dead that the Steelers took to the house, which would have made it 22-0.
Agreed. I asked Fred Lynn if the reason Neon Deion never showed up a pitcher in baseball was because he would have gotten a 90 mph baseball in his ear, he said, yep.
