I haven't stated Seahawks fans are crybabies. In fact, I stated last night that the vast majority accept the game result and have gone on with their lives. The crybaby picture is posted directly to those individuals who behave that way.

You like to lump everyone together and paint them with one broad brush. That's your prerogative, but it makes no acknowledgement of my statements at the time that this teacher should be fired, and my belief as stated at the time that the trash talking Joey Porter should STFU and play.

So when you label everyone according the the behavior of some, you really only make an ass out of yourself.

Okay, we've reached one point of agreement. I also generally respond to the statement and not the poster, and let's face it, who checks posting histories before making a response. However, I'll also note that I thought the TD by Roth was good, and made the statement on the SB live thread before the replay decision. Part of what I've been doing is yanking chains, which I usually avoid, but quite honestly, Steeler fans (many of them, not to include all, but some, maybe a few, but more than one, and probably less than 985,000 of them, not to include Lynn Swann, who has made no comment or Mike Webster, who was unavailable for comment) are just too easy to rile. Throw up a couple of graphics, and you guys start frothing at the mouth (this is just a metaphor, not a literal comment, and is not meant to impugn any of the fine Steeler fans who did not lose their temper, pound on their keyboards, and go to Google to look up pictures of babies crying) and post comments calling other posters names and insulting them. I'll quit now.

Promise.

Don't get mad.

Or throw rocks through my window.

Or harass my kids at school.

Or throw garbage on my lawn.

Or call me an @ss.

Honest.
