I hope Santa's sleigh is fire retardant.

PrintWarren Sapp and myself just got goosebumps listening to Mike Tomlin's post game conference. He was clearly upset about the loss. He clearly didn't want to hear questions from reporters asking if he thought it was a positive outing. They didn't win. Nothing is positive. But the man promised Steeler Nation and the rest of the world that the Black & Gold would unleash HELL in December.
Now I like warm cocoa by the fire. A good book to read. And a white Christmas would be sweet in San Diego. But ya know what I really want for Christmas? Hell. Pure uncut Colombian hell delivered at the hands of Mike Tomlin. I want this team to catch fire from hell. I want to run the table in December. I want this championship team to grab the Raiders, the Browns, the Packers, the Dirty Birds, and the Dolphins by the throat and make them scream for mercy. I want domination. More Hell after the jump...
Give em' hell
Steeler Christmas List 09
Tell me what you want out of this team. You once believed in Santa (or still do) and you should believe in this team. I'm tired of the negativity. It's starting to reach our locker room. Let's back our boys and stop criticizing them. I did; it didn't work. So now I'm going to ask you to stop calling for Mike Tomlin's head and start believing in him. He took us to the SB during a very rough schedule. Now he has some helpless teams in front of him he wants to own. Well I want some similar things too.
I want Troy back getting an INT each and every game until the SB. I want James Harrison to cause 3 forced fumbles. I want a Willie Gay pick 6. I want another Big Snack sack. I want BB to go for over 400 yards in one of those games. I want Holmes to break out on a 75 yard after catch TD. I want it all. Tomlin does too. Who's on board with me and Mike as we rock it in December and show the world that we won't go gently!!
Whatchu want!?

Listening to Tomlin makes me want to strap on a helmet. As mad as everyone on here has been over the last three weeks, my guess is Tomlin is immeasurably more mad. My guess is that Bradkowski gets blitzed back to the stone age.

My Christmas list
1. I want a Maserati for Xmas.
2. I want the Steelers to trade Big Ben to Al Davis or Snyder for 5 or 6 or 7 years of first round picks.
3. Then I want Dixon to take us to the Super Bowl.
4. I want Troy to come back and intercept 19 passes and get the MVP award.
5. I want Arians to retire…. or at least to draw up some innovative less predictable running plays.
6. I want Redman to be called up and I want him & Mendy to get 120 yards each in all of our remaining games.
7. I want Sweed to catch 40 balls between now and the end of the year.
8. I want a Maserati…..
9. I want my stocks to triple tomorrow.
10. Really…. I want all the above, but…… I am not one with negativity. I am disappointed that the Steelers won’t finish 13-3 as I thought, but am glad to have watched some very, very good games this year, and I will settle for a playoff spot.

Loved the title, and yes, I do want the Steelers to beat people’s faces in for the rest of the year. I want Woodley and Timmons to continue to catch fire, and Deebo to start hurting people again. I’d like to see Mike Wallace grab a couple of deep balls, Ward to shut up and take his anger out on defenders and not his own QB. More than anything, I want to see Big Ben and Troy Polamalu back and healthy, and no matter what, see the Steelers go out swinging for the next 5 weeks.

Speaking of Tomlin, he looked pretty scary when he said, “We’re going to unleash hell in December” after the loss to Baltimore. Somewhere in Oakland, Bruce Gradkowski pooped his pants.

The man knows how to motivate!
I can only imagine what he means! Defense playing lights out, an all out Blitzkrieg risking everything to gain everything (Steeler football), the offense absolutely dominating the ground game with Kemoeatu blasting open holes for Mendenhall & Co. Only to set up the play action to Holmes or Ward across the middle or hitting Wallace in stride while he is toasting the cornerback down the sideline. Inserting defensive starters back on special teams to put the fear of God into the likes of players such as Ed Reed, or Josh Cribbs or any other return man unlucky enough to have Deebo or Diesel bearing down on him! Viva La Pittsburgh!
I want a replay of Hines laying out Ed Reed like he did a couple years ago
Also I would like to get tickets for the Ravens game

As a Raider fan, I cringed
Because I know Mike Tomlin is a man of his word. I may have to endure a 2007 Patriots style shellacking on Sunday.

I want
to come outta of these next two weeks with Ws. I don’t care how we get them. Then Troy can come back healthy and we can push hard for a playoff WC.

I want
To see Arians fired and us hire whoever it was that taught Manning what he knows.
Ben has the ability to do Peyton Manning at the line work, and I sometimes wonder how many of Arians calls he audibles out of that end up going big, or at least going. I would love to see someone with TALENT and GOOD GAME PLANS AND STRATEGIES teach Ben. Again.
We miss you Ken Whisenhunt, we know you’re not coming back too, but could you at least fax over the ’05 playbook? Thanks.

The man doesn't play.
I can’t remember seeing Tomlin that “controlled angry” before. I kinda squirmed in my seat…then I remembered; he’s not my dad and I really DIDN’T do anything wrong. Unleash hell…. well alrighty then. DO IT!
I want:
The Steelers to leave carnage on the field. I want their opponents to fear the offense and the defense. I want our offense to pick apart defenses. I want our defense to slam the hammer down. No mercy. Then of course I want world peace.
When the tailgate drops, the BS stops. Shut up and play!
All I want
Is for the Steelers to reassume the identity they had last year and start kicking butt. They have the ability, they just need the attitude.
I beleive this man has the attitude to unleash hell
So thats what happened to J.P Losman NFL career

the set up is there, now the finish!
1- Big Ben drives Steelers to TD on next possession, scoring on laser pass to Ward in end zone. Nothing will shut up the Drama Queens looking to divide the team other than on the field demonstration of team unity.
2- Defense hands out a couple of shut outs!
3- Special teams plug the holes.
4- Troy in uniform & on the field!!!
My wish list is the pay off to a year of inconsistent play that has the Steelers in position to come out big winners again this year. The inconsistency I feel has come because of a lack of focus & the usual intensity we see on the field. As well as the costly injuries. If the Steelers can return to full strength & play with the fire in their belly that Tomlin is calling for, we are in position to deliver another dream season. Winning & dominating an entire year is surely sweet, but overcoming difficulties & winning when you’ve struggled is the sweetest. Nothing is easy in the NFL, it’s an ‘any given Sunday’ league. Steelers best Sundays are coming. GO STEELERS!!!
Where Have You Gone Johnny U?
For the REFS to call all of the holding calls on...
James Harrison that he deserves!!
Who's laughing now, O Line??? Ben Roethlisberger (from the Podium) to his O-Line and the world in Superbowl XLIII
I Want:
1. Troy back and 100%
2. Win some &%^#^ games!!!!
3. A better record this year than the Ravens
4. No 4th quarter heart-attack-inducing finishes – No close finishes. I want a very comfortable lead that we don’t hand away. I want to relax when I watch Steelers football.
5. ST to stop calling in sick. Make plays and get it done.
6. Deebo to have stick-um on his uniform so that when people hold him, they can’t get loose. That’s apparently the only way they’ll get a penalty, as he runs dragging them along behind him
7. Win some post season games.
