Wonderful time of the year

I will never root for the Ravens, but with their win...The Drama boys are gone, NE and Colts are done, now Big Tuna and the Wild Cat are gone, and after next week the Cards are done; all we have left are Defensive and Running teams. I love it! What will the sports press talk about? Will it be Hanna, Paris or Spears? Maybe this year the NFL will quit selling out to the so called avg fans, and will try to educate the avg fan to understand what real "great" football really is.

WTG Porter and Fins, great year and heck of a turn around this season.

Painful day

The loss sucks, but not ready to talk about it.

Being in Ohio I had to travel to watch this game, sadly the Steeler fans there were almost worse then watching the game.

Besides the woman behind me yelling go Ben like he can hear her, followed be he sucks put in Batch. I had to hear from the crowd:

Barry Foster is the best running back we ever had. Why did we cut him?
We should have kept Porter. He has like 13 sacks.
Neil O’Donnell was Cowher’s 1st round draft pick from USC
Who is your most hated Steeler? She said “Mark Malone” Two minutes later said she started watching the Steelers in 91.
Tone was never worth a 1st round pick. After the touchdown best pick we ever made.
Many many of these…we need to run the ball. Why did you try to run the ball?
Many many of these… we need to throw the ball. Why didn’t you run?
I heard Cowher bought a house in Cleveland.
The fins could give us trouble in the post season.
We can still get one for the thumb this season.
Tomlin, yeah still not sure he was the right choice. The Wiz had….(Ari was down 42 to 0)
I am not sure of this D.

Wow, long day. Wished I would have stayed home, and found the game on line. At least I could have been around you crazy knowledgeable guys and gals. J

I am sorry FWP

I like FWP, but I have also been hard on him over the years. I like a power running game, and watching him run for no yards or a 2 yard gain pains me. I know I may be slow for change, but I never really saw progress that made me see change was working. Until today watching how we used Moore, I was drooling. Don't get me wrong, I am thrilled how Moore has played, but think how those plays could have been with FWP. I now blame Arians and the Wiz. They could of used FWP so much better.

Ok, great win!
