The Steelers have 6 wins, whereas the Cowboys and the San Francisco 49ers have 5 each. I don't mind the 49ers too much.... kinda like them to tell the truth. But I've never been able to stomach the Dallas Cowboys. "America's Team" indeed....
So although I know there's not a lot of NFL fans here..... I know there's a few. So in the words of the since booted Hank Williams Jr....... ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL?!?!?
I knew, deep down, that there was something off about you.
A Steelers fan? Oh heavens.
I have been a die-hard Cowboys fan since the late 1960s when I, wearing a cowboy hat and a gun belt, saw the Cowboys play the Redskins. This was during the time when Walt garrison played fullback for the Cowboys, did Skoal commercials and rode rodeo. So I figured that they were cowboys during the week and played a little football on the weekend.
My father was born and raised in Pittsburgh during the 1920s and 1930s, when the Steelers were so bad that going to their games cost less than going to high school games. And they sucked during the time when the Cowboys made it to one Super Bowl- vs the Colts and were obviously cheated- and won another. And I, a cocky 8 year old, talked a lot of trash.
Did the same with Little Red Lopez, and this one came back to bite me, too. Just like Lopez lost to Chacon, the Steelers somehow cheated their way to a very successful decade in the 1970s. We all wrote off the 80s, and the 90s were a draw...
I don't think the win vs Arizona should count
and I bet you wouldn't let your daughter attend a party with your team's quarterback!
Best I got...we'll probably be 8-8 or 7-9 this year.
That one I'll give you.... LOL. Big Ben probably makes the Top 10 on a lot of daughters' "undateable" lists.
Re: The NFL season approaches
It just won't be the same without the big hits.....goodbye football, I shall miss you. It's Soccer and Ice Hockey for me now during the fall....I might watch college but the NFL just sucks.

This new RB rule about ducking down and initiating contact means that plays like this...

are now ILLEGAL...instead of a touchdown that's not a 15 yard penalty and a fine.
Football is being slowly outlawed...don't believe me?

Football will fall apart when people start comparing it to slavery. You've got all these rich white owners "forcing" these poor minorities out there to do battle for their pleasure....that narrative is bubbling up to the surface now.

@El Kabong what does the city that I live in have anything to do with what team/s I support?
Your fascination with me and the teams I follow is getting a little creepy.
Should I be worried? :-\
Did I mention to you I'm a Blackhawks fan now? :cool:
I'm also thinking of becoming a PSG & AS Monaco fan. ;)

Well because during your lifetime LA has had NFL teams, the Rams and Raiders so you can't use the out you did for saying why you like Real & the Scum "Well they were the only teams I could watch on TV". It wouldn't shock me at all if you hopped on the bandwagon of any of those teams.....just seems a bit I don't know it just seems like you'd be the kind of guy to hit the reset button on a video game you were losing. I understand nobody likes losing, it's not enjoyable, but you just LOVE jumping on some bandwagons.

Rams are most likely going back to LA.
Well if they start winning again Mick will have a home team to support :rolleyes:
Re: The NFL season approaches
If we keep having injuries we're gonna get to the season kickoff without a fucken TEAAAAM!!!!! :mad:
Culliver now player number 5 to go down with an injury.
At least 3 have been from our starters. 1 is out for the season and 1 might return mid-way.
I'm starting to get frustrated. :-\
