I'll tell you what frosts me about the Steroid Era.

It coincides with the lack of playoff appearances and winning seasons by the Pirates.

I feel my town has been cheated. That the other teams got an unfair advantage. I haven't heard of a Pirate that was juicing that stayed on the team.

I'm sure none of you all care. But I'm pissed.

[BOSSHOG]

1. Quite a conundrum

I care. And you make a great point. However, what did big head bonds do for the Giants lately and how did A-fraud push the Rangers to the world series?

But as I delve deeper your town has a recent super bowl trophy so my sympathy is tepid at best. Will their rings be in the shape of Zebras like their last ones should have been?

[MrPerson]

2. The zebras didn't cause the Steelers to drive 88 yards

on the Red Chickens.

The zebras didn't make the Sea Chickens give up the flea flicker or the 75 yard run.

[BOSSHOG]

4. So what did the Zebras cause??

I got your mind of the steroid free Pirates. I love it when a fan from West Pennsylvania's team gets their hackles out.

Funny you are familiar with those. Guilt??

[MrPerson]

6. Can't miss hearing the whining.

BTW. The Steelers were the victims of taping and a blown forward lateral non-call against the Patriots. So there.

8. In '97 Kordell Stewart stepped out of bounds

en route to his "touchdown" in a 7-6 home win for the Steelers. I'm sure fans of any two team can play this game. Any Raiders fans out there who want to talk about a certain "reception" or a "tuck rule"?

Actually, any Raiders fans out there at all?

[MrPerson]

11. Don't diss the Immaculate Reception dood.

At least not in Pittsburgh.

[hughee99]

12. I don't know if he caught it or not,

but I know some Raiders fans that say they are SURE he didn't. The point is, I'm sure fans of any team can go back and find some example of where they got a bad (or questionable) call against another team and that may have affected the outcome of the game.

[MrPerson]

13. So much better to fuck up completely like Buckner.

[hughee99]

14. Ah, Buckner. A shot of "2004" cleared that right up. n/t

[MrPerson]

3. And if its the last play, it was clearly a fumble..

Warner did not have control of the ball.

And the refs took a TD off of Big Ben.

So have some cheese.

[BOSSHOG]

5. Hey

ya got the Bradshaw legacy to live with. Terry won super rings the old fashioned way.

[MrPerson]

7. Oh there was whining then.

[hughee99]

9. The "old fashioned" way? I guess some things never go out of style.
