Game's Third team Upstaged Steelers, Seahawks

justgary, did you not read my post where it read, "When will players and fans(Joey Porter included) realize that these men officiating the games are human?" Read closer before you criticize...

Game's Third team Upstaged Steelers, Seahawks

This is honestly rediculous and I'm disappointed in the kind of fans that we have become. Sure, as a Steelers fan I was upset the calls didn't go our way against the Colts, however I did not blame the lack of production in the last few series of that game on the refs nor did I blame the infamous Jerome Bettis fumble on the refs. My point is that we were not making the plays to finish that game. Sure, we got screwed on a few calls, but that's no excuse for not making the plays. When it comes down to it, we still overcame. When will players and fans(Joey Porter included) realize that these men officiating the games are human? THERE WILL BE MISTAKES. So instead of complaining about the calls and dwelling on the mistakes, why not keep playing? It is very childish but maybe if you keep telling yourselves that the Seahawks got screwed by the refs and the Steelers did nothing to win that game except for showe up, you'll feel like World Champions. I've kept my cool and understood why the Seahawks fans are upset, and I still do understand, but I'm disgusted by the lack of respect given to a Super Bowl team. Grow up and become a real fan...

I agree weekly guy. Any honest and real Steelers/football fan will tell you the zebras didn't help. I'm just upset that there is zero credit given to the Steelers for the win. The people that post and the stuff they post are rediculous. Realize and identify errors, but at the same time, give credit where credit's due, and the Pittsburgh Steelers do deserve credit for getting themselves this far and winning Super Bowl XL.

All right. As a Steelers fan I will willingly admit that there was some poor officiating last night. However, I don't feel that there were any calls that were total gamebreakers. The Steelers did make the plays when they needed to. For example Willie Parker's 75 yard run. Or maybe you'll recall the huge play where Ben scrambled and threw it to Hines Ward who cut off hit route and lost the defender to catch that pass. Again there were some crap calls, but that's neither here nor there. The Pittsburgh Steelers made the plays when they needed to, and what you're saying about the officials giving the game away is purely sour grapes.

As if anyone needed extra motivation.

So be it. I said it, and the little short bus isn't going anywhere with whatever kind of motivation you give him...... BigDog, I'm assuming you're talking about Bettis. It isn't about the "short bus" getting the motivation. It's about the whole team backing him and giving the whole team the motivation. That is something I would not screw with, not this year with this team...

I think Stevens just woke a sleeping tiger, not just in Porter but in the whole Steelers team. The team has admitted that Bettis has been their inspiration and fire. Stevens brought Bettis up, and I think that's just a little more inspiration coming from Bettis. The Black and Gold will back him every time and I can guarantee the Steelers will come out fired up, especially after those comments, and I'm not convinced Seattle can handle a pumped up Steelers team...

Hines Ward taking mother to visit home

I don't know how the gay subject came up. Hines Ward is married and has a son. I'd say that's a pretty clear indication that he's probably not gay. How exactly does Hines Ward being gay come out of an article saying that Hines will take his mother back to Korea?

T.O. visits Denver for face to face with Shanahan -

T.O. could very well be one of the best if not the best receiver in the NFL as far as natural talent is concerned. However his antics on and off the field are a total distraction to whoever he plays for. He'd have to pull a total 180 to be productive, and it will take a few years of good behavior before he's able to be a possible franchise player again. If he doesn't quaterbacks, receivers, and lineman will not want to play around him nor will any front office put up with him. Without a change in behavior, T.O. will be the biggest flop and waste of natural talent in the NFL.
