Took him 2 days after his statements to issue an apology. Shouldn't you give Holmgren the same opportunity? Or are you just another blowhard?

Perhaps you are way too invested in living vicariously?

Agree completely. I have never initiated any disrespect of Holmgren. I have posted a picture of him in obvious distress, with the list of the five stages of grief, as a shot all the people who have initiated an avalanche of undeserved disrespect towards the Steelers. As must be pretty obvious by now, I'm a rabid die-hard Steeler fan, and have been one since my first memories of playing street/backyard football with my friends, in Pittsburgh, in the early 1960's. Though technically, the first game I remember watching is the "Immacualte Reception" game.

As I'm sure any FReeper can agree with and respect, I'm supportive of my home town, and take a lot of civic pride in where I come from. All the way from family/house/street/neighborhood/city/county/state/country/planet I have a paternal instinct.

So let me just put it this way... please accept my apologies for being such a rabid "bite-backer." I do love the Steelers organization, and the Rooney family, and the entire city of Pittsburgh. When I see them being attacked it's my instinct to fight back. But I do regret giving the impression that I want to hurt feelings. For that I'm sorry.

GO STILLERS!
