A look into a steeler's fans mind: - Going to a wedding, wear my jersey - Going to a funeral, wear my jersey - Can't wear my jersey to work, decorate my cube with excessive Steeler gear - job Interview, wear my jersey - going out on Friday night to pick up girls, wear my jersey I wish steeler fans would be like all other fans, and just wear their jersey on game days. They certainly look like fools on wednesday night wearing their steeler gear at a nice restuarant. Even though its gross and I don't condone spitting in someone's food, I am sure the The Steeler fan provoked it. Doesn’t the rest of the league know that steelers fans think that their jersey’s are formal / everyday attire.

A look into a steeler’s fans mind:
- Going to a wedding, wear my jersey
- Going to a funeral, wear my jersey
- Can’t wear my jersey to work, decorate my cube with excessive Steeler gear
- job Interview, wear my jersey
- going out on Friday night to pick up girls, wear my jersey

I wish steeler fans would be like all other fans, and just wear their jersey on game days. They certainly look like fools on wednesday night wearing their steeler gear at a nice restuarant.

Even though its gross and I don’t condone spitting in someone’s food, I am sure the The Steeler fan provoked it.

That being said, I’ve been on both sides of food service, and I’ve seen some sickening sh*t done to people’s food who rubbed the cook the wrong way. That doesn’t make it right, but if you think you’ve never had the really special sauce at some food joint, don’t kid yourself. My aged memory of that day goes something like this: 1. Offensive pass interference in the endzone. I think to myself “crap call, but it’ll even out by the end”. 2. A bunch of ticky-tack crap that put the kernel in my mind that it wasn’t gonna even out at all - Toothless’s phantom TD, etc. 3. Grant Windstrom acting like he was getting out of bed in the morning getting back up when he went to the turf chasing Toothlessburger who then threw an amazing cross the field pass off his back foot. 4. Loaf of Tapoopoo getting hammered by a pulling guard on the 70 yard touchdown run which made me question drafting a undersized middle linebacker in the second round no matter what his football IQ is without a young gynormous injury free Nose who eats blockers for lunch (along with 15 head of cattle). 5. The backup of the backup safety getting frozen on a trick play he should have seen coming from midfield – probably because he was worried about Loaf getting body slammed again. And then the coup de grace, courtesy of Levy and company, for all of whom SB XL should have been their last day of NFL employment. 6. Armlocklear gets a holding call while not holding the DE who was clearly offsides at the snap of the ball, calling back 1st and goal from the 2 or closer. 7. The penalty created a third and long where Hasslebald tried to force a pass that got picked off. Adding insult to actual injury, Hasslebald got called for a low block while tackling the interceptor and coming up a bit gimp for the effort. There is plenty of great football history for Steeler fans to be proud of, but this is not part of that. I think the Steelers were robbed in a way by Levy as well as the ‘Hawks due to the fact that “the thumb” is always going to carry an asterisk on it. While I think with better officiating the Seahawks would have won, I don’t count out the Steelers. The 2005-2006 team had a tenacity and resilience I’ve rarely seen. It’s too bad they won thanks to the benevolence of the refs and not their own play.

The same way they destroyed the Spygate tapes. The sole purpose of these higher up positions is to prevent black eyes for the NFL, and that game was so atrocious, it gave every sports league in the world a black eye. Nobody is jealous of the Steelers (except maybe half of the nations prison inmates wondering why they are in jail for doing far pettier crimes than half of the Steeler active roster), we're just sick of hearing Pittsburgh fans blindly defend the officiating in that game when it is painfully clear what really happened.

I am always excited for the Super Bowl. It's my favorite day of the year. However, I felt raped by the NFL on Feb 4, 2006. All I wanted to do was watch a good game with a house full of friends. Instead, all I got was a joke of a game where the Seahawks were only allowed their 11 players and the Steelers got their 11 in addition to the guys in stripes. It never crossed my mind that football was fixed until I watched that game. Since that game I don't view the NFL the same although I still watch/enjoy it. Don't get me wrong, I loved when my team kicked the crap out of the Hawks this past play-off season... but it's just wrong what happened to them in Feb of '06. I know Stevens shouldn't have had butterfingers, they should have been ready for a trick play, they should have stopped Willie Parker... but it makes it tough when the guys in stripes make sure they are also against you... And to the stupid comment from the Steeler fan who said they kicked Seattle's butt earlier this past season in Pittsburgh... how in the heck does that mean that they deserved to win a game 2 years earlier?

Not because the cooks think you're an a-hole or don't like your shirt. A lot of people working there are LOSERS and think it's funny and are generally PO'd at life and just want to get back at anyone. Enjoy your next meal!

Combined with Steeler fans and their incredible self righteousness. Florio made a joke, see the movie "Waiting". Try to develop a sense of humor if possible. BTW it was not spit, the 'Hawk fan just slipped on a McDonald's bag. Typical Responses from both fan bases, Seahawk fans yes, spitting on you or your food, this is what they do, this is who they are.

Did the ref's blow a call when Willie Parker ran untouched for 70+ yards? Did they blow a call when Ben Roethlisberger scrambled around on 3rd and long and completed a deep pass to Hines Ward? O.K. I will give you that the tripping call on Hasselbeck was B.S. Seriously, if you want to win the Superbowl, play some damn defense. That being said, nobody deserves to have spit in their food.

With that being said, it's not Seattle's fault the refs tried screwing the Steelers against the Colts. I believe the Stealer (no spelling error) fans should NEVER rub Super Bowl XL into the faces of the Seahawk fans. They have no right. I have been watching football for four decades and I have never seen a game that was fixed like that. I'm not saying it was fixed, it just appeared that way. Sometimes crazy things just happen at bad times and unfortunately for Seattle --- things didn't even out in that game. Steeler fans --- if you want to heckle someone, make fun of the Vikings. You kicked their butt. You can even make fun of the Cowboys b/c you have 2 and they only have 1. You can really rub it into the Rams, but the difference is you deserved those games.

You can't escape reproach just by adding a proviso that you don't condone that behavior. Believe it or not, I'm a Seahawks fan, although I was born and raised in Italy, and I would never dream of spitting on somebody else's food. I guess I come from a country where that behavior is not only a crime but it's also considered extremely despicable. I'm really sorry that on this issue our views are so opposite. Nothing personal against you, because I truly believe you do a great job, but had it been me I would have strongly condemned that behavior. I guess instead in this country, spitting on somebody else's food, is something that should be expected. Sad, very sad. Oh well... keep up the good work you usually do, we're all accustomed to it.
