Bam and I were split on how this game was going to turn out. I thought it was going to be a complete blowout from the start by the Steelers and they would never turn back. Bam thought it was going to be a close game with the Steelers giving it up at the […]

Finally, the regular football season is days away. Unfortunately, there is one more preseason game in the way that is even more boring than the other ones. This is the final preseason game, so you rarely get to see any starters on the field, so it’s more like watching a JV game.   It’s the time […]

Steelers 13 Redskins 17               When I think of Steelers vs. Redskins, I think of last year when Byron came in to save the game when Ben went down. After that, many people called for Ben’s head and that Byron should be the new starter. Of course that didn’t happen, and both teams went […]

Since I obviously have some problems with getting motivated (for example, writing articles on the site), I decided to go to the Get Motivated! seminar that was going on in the Mellon Arena in downtown Pittsburgh yesterday. Actually, I attended mostly due to the fact that Terry Bradshaw (who was the first speaker and was […]

Ready or not, here it comes. Training camp is here. You can just taste the fresh sweat, hear the pads hitting, and feel the rookies’ nervousness. Here’s a few things that have happened already:   – I guess a few weeks is all Derrick Mason needs to talk himself out of retirement. So just forget […]

Here are a few news stories going on around the league to reassure you that yes, the offseason is boring. Enjoy.   – Big Ben is fine after he faked people out by pretending he had an injury. Actually I think it was a bee that stung him so he jumped around and asked Tomlin […]

It’s getting to the point where it’s almost too early to give the drafts proper grades mostly due to the fact that we can’t make a proper assessment from two years of playing. But we’ll try anyway. This was the year Tomlin was the new guy in town and everyone was scared he was going to turn […]

Looks like the football ‘analysts’ at ESPN are bored. They’ve already ranked the NFL teams in May, but hey, what do we care, they think the Stees are number 1. They’re saying since the Black and Gold have “20 of 22 starters returning, the Steelers could chase ‘dynasty’ status”. Whatever. I wouldn’t put too much […]

Coming off a Super Bowl victory, the Steelers had some problems in 2006. Ben forgot how to drive a motorcycle and got an emergency appendectomy. People accused Cowher of not caring after getting his championship. The Steelers sucked basically. They went 8-8 after starting 2-6 and missed the playoffs after making it the previous two […]

2005: The rebirth of the Steelers dynasty. This was the draft that put that rest of the pieces together for the Super Bowl run. Or was it? Was it necessary to have these guys to take it all the way to SBXL? You decide, because we aren’t. Check out the rest of the picks after […]

I’m sure you’ve already heard, but Chuck Daly died at the age of 78 from pancreatic cancer. We know this has nothing to do with the Steelers, or even football in itself, but it hits close to home for us. Chuck was born in Kane and actually started his coaching career in our hometown. Norm […]

A dynasty needs to start somewhere. Whether you think it was this draft or the last one, both helped put those missing pieces together. The Stees had eight picks this draft, can you remember the rest of the picks after Ben? Cause we couldn’t.   2004 1st Round, 11th pick: Ben Roethlisberger, QB, Miami (Ohio) […]

The Stees didn’t pick up too many players in the 2003 draft. With only 5 picks, they tried to make the best of what they had. Since you can see their first pick below, we’d say they didn’t waste their first pick. What about the other 4? Well, check out the rest of the article […]
