I wonder how many people have ever even looked at a copy of the CBA before. The last CBA was 299 pages long. Just merely skimming over the document is enough to put people to sleep.

-----------------------------

The NFLPA* and their reps should have briefed them on the key points if they don&#039;t have the intellectual capacity to comprehend the entire document...

Keep drinking that Jinro; it&#039;s doing wonders for your business acumen!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[New CBA rules:

1. Players will no longer be allowed to bang rocks together to make fire in the locker room.

2. Players must be able to successfully determined the sum of the numbers on their jersey by adding them together.

3. Players will no longer be permitted to store used syringes in their lockers. 

Therefore James Harrison threatened that if any of his teammates supported this, he would bludgeon them to a slow, painful death with their own arms that he ripped from their shoulders. 

Harrison is the biggest, senseless, most foaming from the mouth, roid raging, angry dumb animal in all of sports. Steeler fans dont even attempt at defending that guy. He is trash.]]></description>

Great post!!! My brother followed my lead with the Steelers and has been as rabid as I am for 34 years. But he has also been a huge Lakers fan since his hero Kareem Abdul-Jabar was playing. And we were born into the Crimson Tide. When anyone teases him about bandwagoning, he just says he appreciates excellence. I&#039;m a one-sport woman, but he is also a Mets fan. That should end any suggestion that he only follows winners ;)]]></description>

I beg to differ, since most of the Steelers fans I come across have never even been to Pittsburgh, they just jumped on the bandwagon, lol…. They have their Steelers sticker in the back window, right next to their Yankees sticker, which is right next to their Lakers sticker…. Hell, I work with a guy, and his 2 favorite teams are the Steelers, and the Phillies. How the hell did that happen????

As a Steeler fan for 29 years since I was 8 years old and a Laker fan for 24 years since I was 13, what Bandwagon did I jump on?  The Steelers team was mediocre in the early 80s and my first Steelers jersey was of Louis Lipps. Oh yeah, what a bandwagon that was. Became a Laker fan because Magic Johnson was the greatest player in the world. Took the Lakers 11 years to win  a championship after that. Do not be jealous that there are people out there that are actually fans of teams that happen to be good and win a championship now and then. BTW..the Yankees suck.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It doesnt surprise me that they voted against it.  Surely,Something to do with fining the players.
I have been watching the NFL for more then 30 years and have never seen a year of bad calls and fines like the steelers received last year. thanks to *&amp;&amp;***&amp; Goodell.  Those of you who watched all the steelers games last year know exactly what Im talking about.  I understand all teams get bad calls but GEEZ, it was almost laughable to see some of the bad calls the steelers got.]]></description>

Like every NFL fan I spend a lot of my time and money and passion on MY Steelers. Indirectly, we pay their salaries. For 40 years I have lived and breathed the black &amp; gold. All of us have the right to claim posession of our favorite teams. Without us, there would be no NFL.]]></description>

What a childish comment. A team belongs to its fans because without fans, teams wouldn&#039;t exist and the Rooneys would be holding so much worthless paper. 

People like you and jw731 prod people on their fan allegiance because you little twits have nothing substantive to say.  And I suppose you&#039;re far too small and petty to understand the devotion of Steeler Nation. How sad for you.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Commissioner hasn&#039;t been targeting Steelers. He&#039;s a politically expedient guy. Congress threatens oversight on head injuries, so he fines players. James made himself a target with his big mouth. If womens&#039; groups are stirred up about Roethlisberger or Favre, Goodell will go after them, guilty or not. But since no one knows Perrish Cox and Brandon Underwood, Goodell ignores them. 

If you guys think what happened to the Steelers and Vikes can&#039;t happen to any of your teams, you&#039;re bigger fools than you sound ... and that&#039;s quite an accomplishment. Can&#039;t wait until he&#039;s playing judge, jury, and executioner for your players. Your day will come.]]></description>

Besides, this is not congress where they vote a certain way because the leadership told them to vote a certain way.

------------------------------------------------
You obviously have never been in a union. And do you really think that 78 of these geniuses really all acted individually to vote against the CBA? No, some tard influenced them and my money is on &quot;the leadership&quot; (or lack there of).]]></description>
