Steelers vs. Patriots

[jimnyc]

I just hope it turns out to be a great game, that the Steelers at least make me happy by staying in the game. I'd hate to see a Patriots blowout. If that happens, then I'll have to hate them even more than I do now, if that's possible. LOL

I really don't enjoy blowouts (well not ALL the time), but at least we're at the end of the season.

Seemed like more than a few of the Pats games were shifted from them to another "more exciting" game when they were romping & stomping.

Now, there's no place to go

I believe the Steelers will win. They are tested and in form. The Patriots are coming off two bye weeks.
Of course, we could be on the hook for the price of two Super Bowl tickets, if the Steelers win and my fanatical friend happens to come up with one.

Steelers Dealing With Bout Of Stomach Flu As Preps Continue For Big Game

I saw that yesterday too. Just what the team needs when prepping for perhaps the best team in the league. Like Tomlin said though, they'll be ready, no excuses.

I think it's not the flu. I think the thought of playing the Pats is scaring the crap out of them...just sayin

I don't get how adullts can get so caught up in this crap. I liked it when I played it -- over 12 years -- but men were men back then. The referees will decide the outcome of the game. That's when I quit watching. I watched maybe 1 and a half games this year out of sheer boredom. The officials screwed the better teams in both games.

More importantly, read the tweet from Alan Faneca, long time pro bowl lineman.

Steelers get 'emergency wake-up call' at 3 a.m.

Observer-Reporter writer and Steelers pregame show host Dale Lolley has been around the beat long enough to know shenanigans when he sees them. While he doesn’t exactly define what an “emergency wake-up call” is, it probably isn’t the kind that has the hotel’s front desk calling and asking whether his refrigerator was running.

One person on the scene says a fire alarm was pulled, suggesting Darth Belichick might not have been involved.

Considering his pregame gig, Lolley is probably staying at the hotel of the alleged incident, so it’s believable. One has to wonder whether the hotel took it upon himself to rock the Steelers out of a restful night’s sleep, or whether the Patriots themselves had something to do with it.

Either way, it’s nothing new, according to former Steelers offensive guard and 2017 Pro Football Hall of Fame finalist Alan Faneca.

Let not, your fluttering heart be troubled at this being a Patriots Plot

Twas but the actions of a man, who has been caught.

Give the bastard some serious jail time for adding unnecessary problems to my Steelers.

I am rooting for the steelers. I hate the cheating pats.

Of course that's who I'm rooting for as well. At least this year I don't see any cheating... but on the playing field they look nearly unbeatable, especially since Brady's return. Gonna have to be the Steelers best effort on both sides of the ball if they expect to win!

Except for the fans that hit the fire alarm in the steelers hotel at 3am this morning

THIS is "more importantly"" You DO need your head examined. It's a kids' game. I mean really ...

At least they got the fucker! No doubt a huge Pats fan, but I wouldn't claim they were cheating as a result of that.
