So, it's officially football season, as evidenced by the sight of all those stupid terrible towels on TV last night. Man, I hate those things. They're almost as dumb as the banner that was hanging in the end zone:
"Don't Stop There
The Other Hand's Bare"
Every time I saw it in the background, I cringed. Come on! Are Steelers fans really that lame? No need to tell me, I already know the answer. A story from the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review convinced me of that:
Clearly, the quest is on for that sixth Super Bowl ring, but that doesn't have quite the right, well, ring to it. What should this pursuit be called?
"A six pack of Lombardi Trophies," suggested Pete Camarda, 49, of Shaler.
"A band for the other hand," said Joe Lamatrice, 29, manager of the Clark Bar & Grill, North Side.
"We've got six appeal," or simply: "Six appeal," suggested an Upper St. Clair fan.
What a bunch of friggin' LOSERS. Seriously, a three-year-old having a temper tantrum could come up with a better slogan than these tools. Here's the best response out of all them:
This from a Browns fan: "How about a toe ring?"
Did Charlie Batch look like a deer in headlights at the beginning of the game or what? He got the job done, anyway. Steelers fans better hope he doesn't get anywhere near Roethlisberger, who seems to be a walking bad-luck charm. Gotta wonder how he was able to be all smiles and on the the sidelines a mere 4 days after emergency surgery, though. How is it that athletes are somehow able to heal faster than the rest of us?

Seriously. The last time I had surgery I was still in the hospiatal four days later.
Clearly I meant hospital.
I start drinking way too early during football season.
Its called downers and steroids, my bud. I plyed college ball and I know all about them. Besides, these dudes are used to 300lb things hitting them sometimes 3 at a time.
Here's my slogan - "one for the ear"
Steelers fans are that lame. They still refuse to believe that the Steelers were beating in Super Bowl XXX.

The Cleveland Answer: They don't...they just keep getting hurt. (see Kellen Winslow II).
Don't get me wrong, I am glad he's back and running guys over now...like Mark Bavaro with speed! If he gets as much as a splinter, I will worry.
I am from Cleveland..don't even get me started on Steeler fans. How about this for a slogan...one for the eye.
