I’ve got another guy who’s always telling me the Steelers buy refs, so I just figured that’s where you were going, too. I know what liquidity means. My point is that the Rooneys don’t have the same resources to go around bribing people that some of the other owners have. If anyone were going to bribe officials to give him a Super Bowl, I’d expect it to be Dan Snyder.

As a Steelers fan, I’m more conscious of big calls that have gone against us–just like every other football fan. And there have been many. Dallas scored in SBXXX when the officials failed to flag TE Jay Novacek for an illegal pick–and that score was a tad closer than the score in XL. You pay attention to calls that favor the Steelers because people have zeroed in on them since XL. It’s something to talk about–the way people still harp on Spygate with the Pats. But favorable calls don’t have anymore to do with our success than I believe Spygate has to do with New England’s.

@Deb first of all, having high or low liquidity doesnt say much about someones wealth…surprised an “adult” like you didnt know that (google liquidity, i dont think you know what it means)

and i never accused anyone of paying refs…you made that up and put words in my mouth. i am just saying that the steelers always seem to get a lot of lucky calls. and if you try to argue that you are just dumb.

Fear Brady. He whooped your asses again tonight. Should have hung 50 on you.

At least Jets fans can be clever and funny every once in a while. You folks are simpletons.

I don’t know who cries more, the Ravens players or Steelers fans.

Probably the result of being victims of spygate when the Pats disgraced themselves and the NFL.

ROFL … you must be hallucinating! No Steelers fans on here are making excuses. We’re well aware that our Steelers were sluggish and looked terrible all the way around. Meanwhile, the Patriots played a great game, and we congratulate them on a well-deserved win.

Now, you can take your infantile attitude and your little rivalry with the Colts and go away, little boy. I’d rather congratulate the adult Pats fans.

Amazing. You should get a job with a league. Can you imagine what kind of money you’d pull–being able to diagnose concussions by looking at a guy … on a television?? Neurologists have a tougher time when they’re examining someone!

@buckeye044 …

Aw, that’s a nice sentiment

You guys, Harrison wasn’t fined for the hit on Cribbs. He was fined for the hit on Massaquoi.

@kevo126 …

LOL Like I said, we’re adult fans. Yeah, there were some bad calls. Some went in our favor–and some when in their favor. The Steelers have been owned by the same people since 1933 and didn’t win a playoff game for their first 40 years. If the Rooneys were going to buy favors, they’d have started long before 2005. They’re among the least liquid owners in the league–which means they have less money to “buy” favors than other owners … Paul Allen. The Seahawks’ owner is one of the richest men in the world.

The more you win, the more people whine that you did something wrong, kevo. If no one’s whining about your team … they must have an empty trophy case

7-2!

@jack:
wouldnt say all good teams, but definitely the Pats. cheating or not.

@kevo:
dude really? still crying about those games. MAN UP and PLEASE STOP CRYING!

I thought that was a bad call, he should not have been fined.

Is that wishful thinking?

@buckeye044 …

That QB has two Super Bowl rings and win stats just behind Brady’s. There are many areas where Ben needs improvement. But we’d never have made it to those two Super Bowls without Roethlisberger and wouldn’t have won XLIII without him leading that last-minute drive.

Smith’s loss is always a disaster, but what’s hurting us more right now is losing Hines and half our o-line.

Could be an 8-8 team we are looking at.
