MOST fans in Pittsburgh right now are not focused on the Steelers or calling in to NFL talk shows. I doubt a lot of Pgh fans ever heard it. They're smack in the middle of another NHL championship run (the hardest and most rigorous championship to win in all of sports, IMHO). The Pens right now rule Pittsburgh, and the city is rocking just like it does around a Super Bowl. Steeler news is very few and far between in the local media. No obsessing over draft picks, no predicting next season's results, no countdowns to training camp. Plenty of time for all that later. The only time you see a Steeler player in the news right now is pictures of them in the stands at the hockey games.
So if you really wanted the attention and anger of Pittsburgh fans, your timing may have been a bit off.
