So, since we’re seeing the effectiveness of this meme so clearly this season, would it be too much to ask to subject the Cubs to the same scrutiny? Or do we just not give a shit about Chicago sports, in general?

Sadly, no. The entire alumni base of Pitt would hold him in their highest regard.

But then who would I tease mercilessly when this happens again...and again...and again?

It’s not a hobby. I’m surrounded by these people.

Taking note of all the bitching Caps fans when the inevitable choke occurs.

Also a Pens fan in the DC/Baltimore area. Married a Caps fan. Know firsthand that even the slightest hint of humor towards the local team will likely incite violence. Sadly, hockey is a non-topic in the house, especially during playoff time.

Agree 10,000% on this. It at least keeps me up to date on how bad the Cardinals are sucking.

Personally, I found the crowd booing Goodell more exciting than the shit Tunsil was put through last night.

I’ll admit, I laughed when they showed the posting of the video on his Twitter account, but the longer the “concerns” dragged on, I could tell it was more for drama and not for actual concern over the guy. I did make a statement here when he actually did get picked by Miami (partly in jest) that it worked out well for…

Seems appropriate.

Except that it did cross the line. And this is a Pens fan talking here.

And the Dolphins with the pick. Yeah, because that worked out so well for Dan Marino.

What smells like shoe polish?

Agreed. Best thing out of that movie after Nicholson’s Joker and Keaton’s Batman. Hugely underrated work.

I’m fully expecting someone to leave the FU Center in a body bag tonight. Player, official, fan, vendor...it really doesn’t matter.

Can’t wait for these guys to be selected captains for the Rams at the next Titans-Rams game.

Somehow, I can totally see this happening in Ohio, if only because Urban Meyer strikes me as the type of guy that could attempt to pull some shit like this off and actually do it.

Up until 2013, yes, you’d be right. Now that the Pirates can actually field a watchable and contending team, it takes the pressure off of the Steelers to be somewhat decent until at least mid-October.

Yeah, just because the case itself was dismissed doesn’t mean that the original verdict was. 12 of your peers found you guilty, asshole. That’s the reality of the situation.

I’m not disagreeing with you. It’s just the smarting from the first 12 years of having such a nice facility being wasted on shitty contracts and poor front office management that gets me.
