Alright Stillers!

Hahaha, that game was awesome! I missed all but like the tail end of the 3rd and all of the 4th quarters, but damn, that was sweet.

Anyone going out tomorrow to watch the Pitt game? I'm torn between that and the track. I really should stay low-key with the $ given the fact that my job blows right now (3 hours AVERAGE per week for the last 4 weeks just ain't cuttin it...).

Anything going on this weekend in the 'Burgh?

I don't watch football at all but I must say what I caught during the 4th quater was pretty damn entertaining. It was so entertaining I was thinking of hidden plots in the game cus of that weird field goal that went so far left it was in its own zip code then what happens next interception???? never saw that coming

Actually it's not a nickname, it's how most people pronounce "Steelers" with a Western PA accent. We don't have "steel" mills, we have still mills, hence "Stillers".

BTW - I know its early, but to see the team pick it up without Big Ben was amazing... They played like they were the underdogs in the playoffs last year, and that's what is gonna win them another ring in the near future.

They played well. Batch was decent. I'm glad he put my worries to rest.

Defense looked really good to me too. I'm excited for this season!

And to foci... sorry but anyone near Pittsburgh is certainly not going to cheer for the Ravens (aka the rejects of Cleveland). We hate the Browns, old and new. But it's ok... maybe someday your city will have a team as great as the Stillers. Oh wait... no, they won't. Oh well, I guess you could always move.
