Thanks to Steeler Fever for advertising it at BTSC.

So much to loathe about the NFL such as the Kemoeatu bit above, fan hysteria around the world about Michael Vick, drugs, PEDs, Goodell, greed, poor treatment of players, concussions etc… but as one wise sage recently noted: thank God for the games and the excitement. This fan watches the games for the purity and awesomeness of the sport itself leaving all the garbage aside or at least trying to ignore it.

And this is what he did in his spare time for shits and giggles because it was FUN!

I’m not saying he can’t be redeemed, only that he should not be welcomed with open arms simply because he might be slightly better than Landry Jones (If you don’t mind his tidal wave of turn-overs.). Yes, football players and teams including the Steelers have and will continue to over look a lot of crap for the sake of winning, but you should google “mike vick’s dogs” and look at his “Bowsers” before dismissing them quite so contemptuously!

For those who came from the inner cities, many would be dead or in prison if not for the opportunities that football at any level afforded them

But even more, thanks for placing this site in your signature. Going by what I have seen in the comments so far, Truth is much more welcome here. As for your “rant”, I couldn’t agree more. I so very much wanted to make the abortion connection, and many of the others you mentioned, in my own post, but suspected that it would be promptly removed. I tried to do the best I could within the rules. Peace to you and yours and God bless.
