HoosierCat Posted September 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 If Cleveland is a dumpster fire, Pittsburgh is the Towering Inferno. They might not win a game all year. The Stillers.com guy summarizes:A s**tty day for Pgh sports mercifully comes to an end. The Pahrts got shellacked by the Reds earlier in the day, next door at PNC Park. Then this colossal implosion at Heinz Field. Both sides of the ball are faltering badly. The offense is too careless with the ball while the defense treats the ball like a live hand grenade, trembling in mortal fear at the very sight of a football. And with such a timid, dense, dim-bulbed coaching staff, I can’t see this Titanic being turned around. I just don’t see that occurring. Now Adolf Godell and the NFL are kicking themselves, with two winless teams playing the marquee game in London next week. Good for Adolf, I say. A loss to the lowly Vikes will put the Stillers at an impossible 0-4 position and should add more warmth to Momlin’s already hot seat. I’m sure our good friends in Great Britain will find something better to do next Sunday than watch a hapless pair of winless teams fight it out in front of 30K fans. With any luck, perhaps the Stillers will have passport issues trying to get back into the USA, or perhaps US Customs can prohibit their entry, and they’ll be forced to stay in London for several weeks or even the remainder of the season. The city of Pittsburgh could use a break from the rancid stench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmyBengal Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 Wow.Now Godell is a bad guy to Steelers fans, calling him "Adolf" ??Wasn't he a great guy when he was handing out punishments to the Bengals ??And now Tomlin is a crappy coach ?? Wasn't he like the bestest head coach ever a couple seasons ago ??The team goes 0-3 and they are wishing passport problems on the entire team ??I've wondered what fair weathered would like look in Pittsburgh and it only took an 0-3 start.Yeah, this has the makings of the best season ever !!!Go Vikings !!!

COB Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 Now Godell is a bad guy to Steelers fans, calling him "Adolf" ??Goodell looks out for the Steelers. When Dan Rooney's brothers wanted to sell their shares (they each had 16%) on the open market a few years back because Dan wasn't offering them fair value, Goodell stepped in. He appointed Paul Tagliabue to get involved on behalf of the league, with the stated goal to keep control of the Steelers in the hands of the Rooney family. Tagliabue reminded the brothers, who had to divest themselves of their shares because their horse racing and dog racing tracks were essentially morphing into casinos with the addition of table games and slot machines, that 80% of the league owners had to approve any sale. So the NFL strong-armed the brothers into selling to Dan Rooney, keeping the Rooneys as majority owners and in control of the franchise. It pissed me off when Goodell did this. I just know he wouldn't have done the same for most other franchises. He has also stated that he is a fan of the Steelers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
