I should have phrased my first sentence differently. I was saying that Steeler fans hated the Pirates because they were perennially a losing team, and that Steeler fans were also trying to co-opt the Penguins once they started winning again. I wasn't saying that the Pirates were co-opting the Penguins.

No joke, "because their head coach looks like a walrus" is a much better reason to root for a particular team than probably a lot of the assholes/"real fans" described in these articles have.

One thing I've noticed in Pittsburgh is that many Steeler fans hate the Pirates because they were a bad team for so long, and they're now trying to co-opt the Penguins because they've been consistently competitive. On the other hand, many Pirate and/or Penguin fans hate the Steelers because of the fans.

Oh yeah, they were disgustingly terrible early in their history. IIRC, they didn't win a game until halfway through their second or third season, and were playing for something like 10 years before they even pulled out a .500 single-season record.

I'm from Pittsburgh. A lot of us are embarrassed by people like you.

Why Your League Sucks: The NFL

I don't think he would stop with wiping his dick.

No

We have by far the worst and the most delusional fanbase in the entire league. That's right, I said it. These assholes make me ashamed to support the Steelers. Most of these assholes don't realize that our last losing season occurred in 2003 when we finished 6-10. That means that there is an entire generation of…

Our starting QB before Terry Bradshaw was a guy named Dick Shiner.

Nice to see Mt. Lebanon represent.

If Todd Haley asks to use your bathroom he will absolutely wipe his dick on your hand towels.

I know a girl who's decent looking in a "if I called an escort service and she showed up I'd be moderately pleased" kind of way. But she has a large Steelers logo tattooed right on her upper arm, a real shitty looking Steelers logo too. It's all out of proportion and crookedy and it makes her look even trashier than…

The year a Seahawk made the cover of Madden, the main feature touted that year was.....wait for it....LEAD BLOCKER CONTROLS. Now every kid could live out their masturbatory Lorenzo Neal fantasies, punching a hole for a running back to gain 3 yards and a cloud of dust. FEEL THE EXCITEMENT! (Oh, and that record-setting…

I laughed when he said "Coach Tomlin, this is Snoop Dogg." I guess he just wanted to eliminate any doubt in Tomlin's mind as to who this sage advice was come from.
