It was basically telling the Bengals "we're going to call you on anything but let the Steelers do anything they want". Had the officiating been even handed the outburst doesn't occur.

Agreed, the officiating did look somewhat lopsided toward penalizing the Bengals, and turning a blind eye to the Steelers.

I thought the refs should have called the game before Big Ben went down.
It felt like the game was out of control, and something bad was gunna happen.

What in the hell is that supposed to mean?  Ben went down on a perfectly legal tackle.  The officials let the game go out of control when there was no foul for Mike Munchak trying to dislocate Reggie Nelson's elbow, on the sideline.

I guarantee plenty of their teammates were pissed off. These 2 dumbasses simply can't keep their shit together. They need to put their big girl panties on and play ball. Is it really that hard to remove yourself from the situation? There's a reason people bait those 2, they'll always bite.

What do you mean "Who cares what Joey Porter was doing?"  The opposition is allowed to blatantly ignore the rules, yet the home team is supposed to just accept it, and pretend like it's ok?
