That worry me when they unanimously pick us to win. It’s the most powerful hex known to man. When their filthy black souls are in unison, only then can the Dark Lord rise and turn off the cable to God’s TV, thus preventing Him from enjoying a brewski and watching His favorite team — the Cowboys.

Known fact, really.

What is this curse you guys are talking about? And Michael Silver picked Pittsburgh, so only 2 out of 3 picked us.

count too well! 2 Yahoo “experts” picked Dallas.

all 4 participants – Collingsworth, Simms, Sapp and James Brown picked the Steelers, so I’m feeling good about that. It’s when everyone jumps on the Boys wagon, I get worried.

Interestingly, the following exchange took place at the end of the Cowboy highlights as the O came off the field:

D Ware: ‘Way to go #9! I’m sure glad I don’t have to chase YOUR a** all over the field.’
T Romo: (Pause) ‘I am too.’

Delivered with that classic Romo deadpan. I love it.

I only see 2 of the 3 picking us.

I like our chances

Last week, he predicted the Pats to defeat those same Steelers.

As tempting (and as easy it would appear to be) as it is to talk smack on this blog I will stay with the game breakdowns.
Coaching: Bum’s Son vs. Tomlin. One cannot motivate fat people towards a buffet line and the other made the playoffs following a Pittsburgh icon. Tomlin impressed me in his first year and has made great strides in his player and time management in his second. Edge…..Tomlin (duh)
I will not even get into assistant coaching as LaBeau vs. anyone is a mismatch.
Qb: Ben is a man’s man. His toughness and fearlessness in legendary. Romo is very good as well. Not as tough (imo) but hard to hit and will keep a play alive. Now I won’t even get into the fact he hasn’t won a single playoff game……..HEHE. All thing considered …..a push.
O line: Both have had protection issues. The Steeler’s line has played quite a bit better lately due to addition by subtraction. Simmons has not been the dominating force the Steelers drafted since his diabetes diagnosis. (Not a knock on Simmons, as my son is a type 1 diabetic as well.) Stapleton has been more consistent and Starks has played adequate at LT. The Boys have had similar issues and have been hit with several holding calls per game. For me that is the deciding factor as Harrison gets held on every play and it is rarely called. If the refs have their pre-game report and pay attention, several holding calls will occur. (Not that I’m holding my breath, as the refs seem to screw the Steelers many times per season!) Edge…Steelers (only based on the anticipated holding calls)
Rbs: MB3 is one bad ass su’m bitch…..and I mean that with all sincerity. I am very impressed with his ability to bulldoze (while not being Bus or Jacobs sized) and his nifty feet. That being said, the odds of him being full strength for this game are remote. With the Boy’s top backup out, (we feel ya, as Mendanhall is on IR as well) I have to give the nod to the Steelers. FWP, Moore and Russell have been playing well and are relatively healthy for this time of the year. Edge….Steelers
WR and TEs: TO, Craten (sp) and Witten are good. Ward, Holmes and Miller are good. My tie breaker here is two fold. One team is used to harsh, outdoor conditions. One team has a nut case for a WR that will berate his QB, OC, HC and his Mother if he doesn’t get the ball. Look for sideline footage of the 2004 Eagles/Steelers game for confirmation of that! Edge……Steelers
DL: Sorry guys, but NO ONE has a better line for the 3-4 defense than the Steelers. Yours has gotten better with the acquisition of Tank Johnson but is still lacking. Hampton is THE prototypical NT. Smith is the best DE you could ever have in this system. Kiesel is active and hard working…..and out of this game. The Steeler’s also have a deep set of DL subs to keep the starters fresh. Edge…..Steelers.
LB’s: Please. You have a one legged Ware and a hard nosed midget from Texas Tech. Harrison (DPOTY) Woodley(Size, speed, rush and coverage ability) Farrior (makes the calls and leads the team in tackles…..again) Foote (what he lacks in pure athleticism, he makes up for in instincts and heart). And we have Timmons to come in on passing downs to both rush or cover! Edge…..Steelers.
DBs: Newman is very good. Pacman is overrated. Your safeties suck. Taylor is very good but cannot catch. McFadden has played very well but is coming off of an injury. I believe the steelers have better depth at corner and FAR better safety play. Troy Polamalu goes without saying and just youtube Clarks hit of Welker if you doubt his ability.
Edge ……Steelers.
Special teams: Your punter is better…..period. Can’t even name him but he has to be better. Now kicker…..not so much. Jeff Reed is money. And if you kicker isn’t named Reed and your at Hines Field your screwed if you want to kick a field goal beyond 35 yrds. Steeler’s coverage teams have played quite well this year….for a change.
Edge….Steelers. This is based mainly on the home field.
Synopsis. This will be a man’s game, and the Steelers are the man team. No one on the Steelers team gets manicures or thinks he is above the team. Between toughness, will and weather this really is not a contest.

Yes, regarding football the Steelers are better. Tougher, more disciplined, better coached, more physical and used to playing in the elements.
Now, if we want to compare bling, ho’s, convictions, suicide attempts, press releases, drama, cost of personal seat lic., letters from the Commish, lack of a playoff win in 12 years, owners face lift (ol yeller teeth now looks like Skelator), owners meddling in football operations and puppet coaches…….then yes, YOU ARE THE CHAMPS!
Until you win a playoff game just continue to be “rebelon in the script club” !

The most you can come up with is I do not know your punters name? Outstanding. I don’t care who your punter is and already conceded that he is better. Our punting game started sucking once our stud punter (an oxymoron, but he walked on to college as a LB and de-cleated people as a punter!) went on IR in camp. R. Williams is such a valuable commodity that DETROIT let him go……..and Skelator over paid for him! TO is a crybaby as pointed out the last time we spanked him. Who will cover him? HHHMMMMMMM, maybe Ike Taylor, who has covered Moss, Chambers and Ocho Cinco and the like all year. McFadden has played very well this year with no reputation to inflate him. Pacman has played poorly with his rep. covering up his inability to the ignorant fan. Sorry, this is a man’s game and your coddled, under coached, overpaid group of press mongers will get their ass handed to them Sunday Dec. 7th, 2008. The Steelers are playing the HARDEST SCHEDULE IN THE HISTORY OF THE LEAGUE and are ahead of “America’s Bandwagon”. We have had more injuries as well. What is your excuse to be hanging on to your playoff hopes by a thread ,if you are so damn good???!!!!!

Because they are filling up this blog and their own with a bunch of middle school jokes and lame smack talk. You’d better hope your team plays better than you guys talk smack or the cowboys will win 50-0.

Just spare us from your weak, illiterate garble and get ready for an azz whoopin tomorrow.

GO COWBOYS!!!

It was fun. Your D played very well and I commend them for that. Other than that it went down the road I laid out. Was it just me or was there a Cowboy player injured/ bell rung on every other play? I do believe the elements and physicality of the Steelers was the difference. And if YOU do your research before vomiting from your noise hole you would know that the Steeler’s schedule is the toughest in the modern era based on their opponents winning % from the year before.
Once again, it was great to crush your playoff hopes and remind you that your team is just the Kansas City Chiefs of the NFC……now going on THIRTEEN (13) years without a playoff win. The only difference is your team has a better hype machine.
