No Retraction?

Just as BengalNation isn't above molesting your children, raping your women, stealing, cheating, pornography and killing. Sadly, these things happen everyday in my city and yours.

Don't be a deliberate dink. Crime happens everywhere. What everyone but you seems to grasp is just how rare it is when acts of violence result from fans overreacting to non-sporting events that never directly involved them in any way.

Why are Steeler asshats harrassing that old woman? Don't you realize that your anger and frustration is a result of Biggest Ben refusing to wear a helmet? Don't you realize that the old woman is just a story device that moves the plot along? In fact, she isn't even essential to the storyline as Biggest Ben could have very easily dented his dumb dome due to skidding on loose gravel, an oil patch, or a carelessly tossed banana peel thrown in his path by a heartless cartoon rabbit.

Attempt to spin this any way you can, but the sad truth is this. SteelerNation overreacted to the first reports of Ben's injury, then overreacted to the response by Bengal fans who could not care less how stupid Biggest Ben might be, and they continue to overreact to the original event by harrassing and threatening an old woman who did nothing deliberately harmful. And the common thread in all of these events is how quickly the fans of the urine and gold overreact to almost everything.

You are all drama queens.

For those Steelers fans here who don't believe this is actually happening, then I suggest they tune into PTI on ESPN where Wilborn and Kornheiser address the issue and call out Steelers fans as being "Disgusting" and "Needing to be tracked down and thrown in jail".

Steeler fans know it's the truth. They're just trying to pretend that it's commonplace everywhere, but we all know it isn't. Yet in Pittsburgh the idea that an old woman involved in a traffic accident would recieve multiple death threats is actually predictable.

SteelerNation is fugtarded.

I continue to ask Steeler fans to name for me recent examples of other NFL team's fans doing such things as purposefully throwing their trash on their QB's lawn or, much worse, making threatening phone calls to a 60+ year old lady who made a mistake in a automobile than anyone could make. Come on ... give me the examples. We all know that if they had occurred they would be in the national media right away ... just like these were. I don't know why these guys try to defend this crap, and try to rationalize that it occurs elsewhere. Maybe embarrassment? Truth hurts guys. Be men and accept the fact that your group has a significant majority of nut-jobs. You cannot have these facts exist, still claim to be a fan, and yet resist direct association with them. Again, when it is so much worse than the other groups, well, then you will naturally be included with the bad apple majority of your group. Majority wins ... so you therefore become considered as moronic as the rest of the black and yellow-backs.

Has anyone else noted that the Cincinnati based media (sports talk, newspapers) have kinda thrown us under the bus? Or is it just me?

Most of them have failed to really look into the story. All they see is: "A few posters on a Bengals message board said some nasty things." They don't want the fanbase embarassed, so they just defend the garbage Fittipaldo article with no research inrto it. I've seen it on another Bengals board, with posters talking more crap on Bengalszone than the article itself because they failed to actually come here and see for themselves who the true turd is. I guess you just make your case for the site, and if they still won't listen, then screw 'em.

Did anybody from the Cincy media mention the Roy Fitzarilli garbage on the air or in print? Doesn't sound like something the Enquirer would touch any more than they would write something about posts by some of the A-Hole Steeler fans after Palmer went down.

But even if print or radio tried to figure out how BengalsZone really fit into the Pitt article, it would take a hunk of air time or a good bit of column space just to explain how a$$ backwards and self-serving it was. Too much work, I guess, but it would make for an interesting story to go back and bring out the crap from Pitt fans and correct a wrong courtesy of the Post-Gazette. I don't remember the Pats fans who flooded here 2 years ago being any where near as d*ckheaded about Palmer getting knocked out of the game. Now the Billievers...whole other story. What a bunch of effing cockroaches!
