So, you focused on the Steelers. A real bellwether as to how this is going to play out is the typically very high visibility Sunday matchup between the arch divisional rivals Steelers & Ravens in Baltimore. Keep an eye on that one.

It's two teams that were very much in the limelight in this latest disgusting fiasco, with lots of hardcore blue collar, true-blue American type fans. Both are 2-1. Both were utterly destroyed in the last game, after starting 2-0. Karma.

VERY curious how many turn out for this one. It would normally be a packed house, with a typically very large number of Pittsburgh fans showing up as well due to their ubiquity and proximity. We'll see...

Yep -- I focused on the Steelers for two reasons:

1. Their pre-game bullsh!t was particularly bizarre and played out disgracefully.

2. The reactions of some Pittsburgh fans I've seen online have been epic, to say the least. LOL.

And as a former diehard Ravens fan and Steeler-hater, I agree, I am curious as to how that game will turn out...I’ll read about it later, my desire to watch that game has dissolved to zero...when I sat down and watched the Baltimore Ravens - who previously represented the birthplace of the Star-Spangled Banner kneel for the national anthem, then stand respectfully for “God Save the Queen” on foreign soil, it sickened me and angered me...they deserved that loss and the loss of support of many hard-working, patriotic fans of all races, religions and creeds...when I saw the final score later on Sunday, my immediate reaction was one from Seinfeld...that’s a shame...looking forward to my Sunday as I’m free from the NFL...

Maybe we’ll find out days or weeks after the event, if we remember that it happened while we were very busy ignoring it.
