Steelers fans...check in...
I'm off tomorrow to Jaggyland for the SNF match.
From what I'm hearing, 15,000-20,000 other Steelers faithful will be coming too. Time to put those WHINY LOSER kittycats out of their misery!

HERE WE GO STEELERS! WHO RIDE?

5. More jaw flappin'
Psychological warfare. They're trying to psych us out...

"Will this be the week Big Ben flops...etc."

The PTI crew tried to lick Troy and the Patriots' nut sack and said that they think the Patriots are the best of the 10 and 1's....

They love the Patriots to no end. Only the media would drool over a WR playing some CB. Seymour played FB last week so look for him to be on about that. Mike Vrabel has lined up as a receiver. Big fucking deal.

The only real news is Duce has practiced all week and is healthy with fresh legs. Plex is still not 100% - he practiced some but probably won't play.

10. Go Pats!
Gee. Now why might the media be impressed by the Pats? It wouldn't have anything to do with two Super Bowl rings in three seasons, would it? Wouldn't have anything to do with shattering the all-time NFL consecutive victories record, would it? How about their newest all-time NFL record: consecutive games scoring first, something they've done 19 games in a row. Yeah, we suck.

Unlike Steelers fans and players, Patriots players don't toot their own horns. They were the first to congratulate the Steelers on beating them this season. And they made no excuses: no Corey Dillon; the entire secondary gone; etc.

The Patriots also don't give a rat's a$$ about what the media says or what Vegas says. Were we bothered being 9 1/2 point underdogs in the 2001 AFC Championship Game. No, we just went out and whipped your butts at Ketchup Field. Your players had already booked their Super Bowl hotel rooms. Were we bothered being underdogs against you in the opening game of 2002 when the whole world told us the Steelers were the better team, even though we had won the Super Bowl rings? No. We just went out again and kicked your a$$es all over the field. To avoid total humiliation, you went all out in the final minute of the game to score a completely meaningless touchdown as time expired. Very, very classy.

The Pats just do out there and play. Hopefully we'll have a playoff rematch. That's two excellent teams. May the better team win. (And don't overlook some other darned good AFC teams capable of beating either of us on a good day.)

Only weak teams are bothered by the media or Vegas. If you're upset about what the media says about your team, it's time to grow up. The only thing that matters is what happens on the field.

11. The Patsies suck - they are paper tigers
When they meet a physical team they crumble.
The Steelers pounded their dicks in the dirt and Marsha Brady went home crying...what game were you watching?

4. I'm waving my terrible towel as I type.
Here's a little known fact about CMD. I shared my dorm room with some Steelers. I have no idea which ones, but when I moved out at the end of the second semester, the Steelers would move in. I never saw them until my last year in school when I stayed for the summer term. I would look in the cafeteria with envy. The food on their training table did not resemble the stuff we were served.

Go, Ben!

9. If we stay healthy...
...we got a shot.

I'm really not liking the way Indy is playing - and, I'd rather play the Pats at home, too.

Long way to go yet - but, right now we have to beat the Jags.
