Mike Mitchell- Steeler Hypocrisy

[BFritz21]

In another example of why the Steelers organization is a joke for signing such a joke like Mike Mitchell and paying him STUPID amounts of money (8.1 million dollar cap hit this year), Mike Mitchell and goes on a rant and bitches because he can't hit players and how the way the NFL is now is not football:

Quote:(This is a partial transcript, but the part about him saying it's not football is in the video in the link):
I’m gonna mess around and get hurt trying to protect an offensive player because he’s running an over route. Dammit, your quarterback shouldn’t have threw that ball messed up. That happened two years ago. I’m not joking at all. Andy Dalton threw a ball to Tyler Eifert two years ago. Tyler Eifert had to dive for it. I was aiming for his gut, but if he don’t dive, he don’t get hit in the head. That’s 50 grand out of my pocket though, because Andy throws a bad ball. Make that make sense. And at first you’re taking our money, but now I got assholes like Matt Hasselbeck calling me a dirty player and trying my character, and we never met before.

Ok, so that's not football, which we all kind of agree that the league has gotten too soft, but for Mike Mitchell to comment on what football is or isn't?

But he thinks that this IS football? What part of being a trashball that's trying to take a cheap shot at another team's player IS football? Why doesn't the media ever call the Steelers out on bullshit like this? Oh, because it's the Steelers, but the media doesn't show favoritism, right?

What about here at 1:09 when he dives into the back of Alex Smith's knees? THAT'S football?! That's how football is taught? That's football?

Steelers keep paying him and the fans keep cheering when he makes plays but ignore how big of a dick and hypocrite he is.

But the Steelers are the class of the NFL
