Washington really does a great job of getting thier hands up to deflect balls. Washington made them one dimesion and took away the deep ball. Pittsburgh has been a dink and dunk offense all year and they finally got a team that exposed them for it. I expect them to come out angry after every one in the media is saying how trash they have played in the last month.

Yeah, living around here I often have the fantasy of kicking a whiner in the nads and screaming over them "YOU DON"T KNOW HOW GOOD YOU F'NG HAVE IT!" 

 

And on a side note, I'm really hoping we can help Cleveland win the division this year. That would be an epic Steelers fail!

what a spoiled entitled bunch of fans. To used to having a good team. Could you imagine the Bills winning a single Superbowl forget 5/6 of them. An 11-1 should get a little more respect from thier own fans.

Dude, if we won the SB this year and dropped a game to the Jets or dolphins next september there would be people on this board saying McD should be gone.

This. Steelers fans are spoiled. I am sure people are calling for Tomlin to get fired— and they are 11-1. 

 

HAHAHA I don't visit Steelers fan forums - but I have a neighbor who is a die-hard Steelers fan, and you're exactly correct.  Tomlin is not good enough to get'em there and should be replaced 🙄 

 

I taught her parrots the Shout song last time I pet-sat.   They didn't get the pitch, but they 100% got the rhythm of the words. HA!  I only hope we get to hear it a lot this Sunday!

Yeah, what's up with this, it seems to be a lost art to us - both ways - doing that, and the OL defending against a defense that does it?

This is absolutely correct.  It is a spoiled fan base with a lot of entitlement.  That said Steelers fans have generally been very nice to me, my wife excepted.

This is just recency bias. People always react according to the last game played.

 

In this case recency bias wasn't confined to the Steelers blowing a lead against an 'inferior' opponent. A lot of those folks also watched Josh and the Bills have a big game afterwards. That only made it worse for people prone to extremes.

Have nothing but respect for Steelers owners. 

State and Union: SBU and its ties with the Steelers, Rooney family

Arthur J. Rooney Sr.

A strong thread connects St. Bonaventure University and the Pittsburgh Steelers organization and family, dating back to the 1950s when the Steelers used to hold training camp on the college campus.

But on this day, 45 years ago, the ties were strengthened when Arthur J. Rooney Sr., founding owner of the NFL team, was presented with an honorary Doctor of Commercial Science degree during St. Bonaventure’s commencement.

The Very Rev. Damian McElrath, president of the university, presented Rooney with the honorary degree on May 20, 1973.

 

Of course, longtime Steelers fans will note that, at that time, the Steelers were on the cusp of greatness — the team would win four Super Bowls from the 1974-79 seasons. But before the early ’70s, the Steelers were perennial losers, dating back to the 1930s, when Rooney started the team with, as legend had it, gambling winnings.

As for other connections, Rooney’s brother, Father Silas Rooney, was a Bona graduate and served as athletic director in the late 1940s and the 1950s. It was Father Silas who encouraged a new, undersized Bonaventure student, Jack Butler of Pittsburgh, to join the football team — even though Butler had not even played in high school.

 

 

Remember when Pegula was a local hockey coach?

Olean Arrows — 1987

The Olean Arrows Mites team won the 1987 Fredonia Hockey Tournament. The above photo appeared in the Times Herald after that event. Front row, from left: Nick Jordan, Jeff Yehl, Tommy Wesley, Pat Moses, Tim Rhinehart, David Previglian and Scott Campbell. Back row: Dan Jordan, the head coach, Scott Rucinski, Matt Hughes, Michael Pegula, Jeremy Schrauger, Keith Raimondi and assistant coach Terry Pegula, who now owns both the Buffalo Bills and Sabres.

Dan Jordan photo
 
 

Last week, on a whim, Dan Jordan posted a 29-year-old photo on Facebook.

In his word, the response was “overwhelming.”

The picture is of the 1987 Olean Arrows Mite hockey team. That group of then-8-and-9-year-olds, now in their late 30s, had just won a tournament in Fredonia.

But the photo was significant for a reason other than nostalgia. In the back row on the left is Jordan, coach of the team, on the right is his assistant, one Terry Pegula.

Yeah, the former Olean and Allegany gas and oil exploration businessman now the billionaire owner of the Buffalo Bills and Sabres.

Together, they had a four-season run — two years with the Mites and two with the Squirts.

“Terry and I met as a result of our sons starting out in the In-House hockey program at the Olean Recreation Center and when a coaching opportunity opened up, I grabbed it,” Jordan said.

 
 
 
 
 
 
Both helped small town of Olean NY. Witch is the amazing thing lol.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Back on topic the Steelers fans are being way too negative about there team. There 11-1. Like the Bill's chances anything could happen on Sunday.

Besides the extra Stanley Cups you left off, go back just one more decade and you'd add another WS title as well, but who's counting? ;)
