Not only are the Steelers not very good at football...

Thanks to the astute insight provided by ~~haters~~ fans across the nation -- in particular, one Dolphins fan -- I think we can all agree now that the Steelers got lucky this season, that we have one of the worst QBs in the league, and that the refs love us and gift-wrapped us two Super Bowl titles. This is old news.

But there is one other juicy nugget of information that has slipped under the radar thus far. If uncovered, this could expose our storied franchise as the classless organization that it really is. It brings me no pleasure in admitting to this, but ladies and gentlemen, the Pittsburgh Steelers are nothing more than a team of hardened criminals. That's right. Step aside Pacman, Plaxico, Vick, and Cincinnati -- there is a new band of thugs in town with no respect for the law or the league. I know it's tough to swallow -- I wouldn't have believed it either -- but this news comes from a very reputable source, with years of unbiased sports journalism under his belt:

Harrison is well "known to the police", as they say...
The guy is always just a step away from incarceration. Holmes too for that matter. Steelers owe their success in the game to the criminal element.

Shame on you, Steelers. You had me completely fooled.

Here we go again.

I will let the guys reiterate all the stats that got us to the Superbowl-or you can just go back to that other bogus thread about us stealing the Superbowl.
I have no idea what you’ve got against Ben- yeah, right he is really a bad QB. What planet are you living on?
Holmes just got a marijuana possession charge, I am not saying it is right, but that is a pretty minor thing, look at Bill Clinton.
Harrison, I am not going to try to justify. If he did what they say, it definitely was wrong.
However, I have seen the stories on Ray Lewis of the Ravens and they really take the cake.
For the few players we have that have done something wrong on the team, how many do we have that haven’t done anything? Please quit trolling around. We should be celebrating not fighting.

Wow

I’m stunned that you didn’t recognize the tone with which this was posted and actually took it seriously.

Yikes

Apparently I didn’t lace this post with quite enough sarcasm to get my point across. Basically, I agree with everything you just said. Sorry for the confusion…take the aggression out on RE.

aaaah sarcasm.

Maybe we should change our by-lines to “please read for sarcasm first before taking seriously”?

Don't worry about the haters. Haters only hate.

I have noticed a lot more accounts have shown up here lately

and think its wonderful. Welcome and enjoy the great stuff Blitz put on here. However, one thing some of us who have been here for a while are accustomed too is the cynical, sometimes irrational (and borderline racists) musings of one robert ethan. He has stopped posting here at BTSC bc we stopped taking him seriously and the bc the Steelers were having success. I would take everything he says with a grain of salt.
