Don’t care how many trophies they collect. The Rooney rule is absurd and their overt support for Obama is unforgivable.

I believe one of the Rooney brothers is a Republican. As for the Rooney rule, the NFL is a private business so they can set their own standards. It’s not like it’s a federal law or anything and the rule has worked out pretty well for the Steelers with Tomlin.

This is sports not political. If you want to talk about rules lets go talk about the anti Steelers rules. The defense was so dominant in the 70’s they made rules to lessen their devastating effect on other teams. No more head slap, no tackling with the helmet, they put dresses on the quarterbacks like Tommy Prady. The league lined up the refs for years against the steelers but we never complained we just go out and win. Smash the ball down the teams throat and run them over. One of if not the greatest quarterback of all time Terry Bradshaw has four rings and i think only Montana a local Pittsburgh area kid does too. We are the city of champions.
