I'm a Steelers fan and when I read this in the Post Gazette I rolled my eyes and thought that Porter sounded rather dumb. My guess is he doesn't believe half of what he said and is simply trying to bait the Colts, which is stupid for a few reasons, but especially so considering Cowher had asked the team to not talk smack in the media. Heck, most of the team is trying reverse psychology like "wow, the Colts are the bestest team ever, and we're just the lowly Pittsburgh Steelers" in the media lately. Porter (as well as many other players) have said they need to get mad before they can play to their top level. I personally don't understand that, but I'm not an NFL linebacker. Still, comparing this to the stuff that comes out of TOs mouth is bullshit.
Wow! Would'nt Porter make a terrific airline pilot. I can hear Porter now: "Map?...coordinates? Forget it. Just shove those throtles to full speed ahead. And tell ground control to stop interupting me!"
" I like my beer cold, my TV loud and my football players stupid!"-Homer Simpson Perhaps Joey is employing some type of "Jedi" mind trick. So the Colts can't beat you in a smash mouth type of mono y mono football. So, maybe the Colts know this fact to be true as well. So they don't play that type of game.(duh!) While the Joey Porters of the world continue to butt their heads into the wall of life getting electric shocks for their efforts. The Peyton Mannings are already eating the cheese! Ratology 101!
But isn't this the same sort of thing the Pats said after beating the Colts the last few years?
Football is measured in wins and losses, not how many times you hit someone hard enough to make the espn highlights. The patriots can talk shit all they want, but the NFL changed the rules after the mugging the New England defense put on the Colts wide recievers in Foxboro a couple years back. Peyton can't play in a big game, indeed.
Is this your point? I found it lying on the ground.
joey porter sucks
They don't want to just sit there, line up and play football box," Porter Mike Tyson told the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. "They want to try to catch you off guard. They don't want to play smash-mouth football slug it out, they want to trick you. ... They want to catch you substituting gasping for air. Know what I mean? They don't want to just call a play throw a jab, get up there and run a play bite an ear off. They want to make you think. They want it to be a thinking game instead of a football game boxing match."
Gronir, anyone who quotes Homer Simpson is my kind of guy. I owe you a six pack of Duff beer.
He prefers Fudd, but it's hard to find.
Can you make it Skittlebrau?
Looks like Porter sucked you guys in just like he did the Indy players. I'll bet he's smiling now. All he wanted to do was to get Indy to try to stand up to the Steelers. And they (and you) fell for it.
Looks like Porter sucked you guys in just like he did the Indy players. No, he didn't suck me into anything. Just because his team won the game doesn't mean he's not still a loudmouth doofus with a bullet hole in his ass.
Have fun sitting at home guys. You can watch the team that kicked your a** up and down the field win the super bowl. I guess Porter was right after all, the Colt's dont have what it takes to EVER win a championship. GO STEELERS!
