2008 Steelers Review: Quarterbacks

The 2008 season will go down as one of the best in Steelers history. It was a year that had the perfect ending, but the journey to that point was far from ideal. We’ll take a position-by-position look at the season that was – both good and bad. To start, we examined the running backs […]

Friday Field Trip: Starks is so paid

Every Friday, we venture out into the Web and pull in some of the best (and occasionally worst) Steeler related content on the Web. And here. we. go. This is more in the news department than link love, but Max Starks was franchised this week. He’ll be overpaid once again, but with Marvel Smith’s injury […]

Santonio Holmes fined $10,000 for Super Bowl celebration

Now this absolutely infuriates me: The issue over whether Santonio Holmes should have been penalized 15 yards for celebrating — after a significant pause — his winning touchdown reception in the Super Bowl might grow now that he’s officially been fined $10,000 by the league. Holmes was not flagged by the officials after it occurred […]

Jeff Reed arrested at Sheetz

Steelers kicker Jeff Reed was arrested early this morning at a Sheetz off of Route 22. Apparently, he was upset that there weren’t any towels to dry his hands in the bathroom.  Per PG: Pennsylvania State Police reported today that Mr. Reed, 29, was in the restroom of the convenience store on Route 22 in […]

Friday Field Trip: Holmes’ TD a fraud?

Every Friday, we venture out into the Web and pull in some of the best (and occasionally worst) Steeler related content on the Web. And here. we. go.   Since his retirement, Mike Holmgren must have relocated to Arizona because all we’re hearing from the bandwagon out there is “waaaaa.” AZ Central searched for every […]

The new Blitzburgh Blog

Seven months ago, we decided to start a Pittsburgh Steelers blog for a couple of reasons. One – we are obsessed with Steeler football to an unhealthy level. Two – when you live in your parent’s basement, there isn’t much else to do. Since our old site just didn’t have enough room for six Lombardi […]

After a few days of recovery and celebration, we figure it’s time to close the book on the Super Bowl.

I anticipated the Steelers to […]

Super Bowl XLIII: SIXBURGH

Words can’t even begin to do justice. We were jumping for joy, we were crying into our Terrible Towels, we were bent over in agony, we were hugging random strangers. Every Super Bowl is an emotional journey, but this one will go down as one of the greatest. There’s a time and place to look […]
