RE: Circle the wagons - McC - 01-11-2016
Finally...a poll with no wrong answer.

How do I make multiple choices in that poll?
One just isn't enough.

I'm not going to act like we have an innocent defense, we don't, and just for times like Saturday. It was a war that had to be had, and it's too bad it was on national tv for the national media to side with the Steelers.
I even forgive the fan. Whoever it is is getting slammed for throwing the one good bottle that almost hit Ben. At that moment that act was for thousands of us fans who think it was tacky, and wouldn't have gone there. The intent was good! And a blind eye should be given. Some here sound like they would have pointed them out.
But AFCN fans (and many more nfl fans) saw what went down and as ugly as it was understood. It was an epic game with an epic meltdown (Hill's another story). But it wasn't a physical one, and the Steelers felt it. And for that I'll be ready to turn the page quicker than expected.
They showed more fire then I've ever seen in a playoff game under Marvin in the second half, and rallied behind a fallen warrior. If there's any reason to explode seeing your teammate down like that is it. So it is what it is.
They'll be ready for them in 2016. And I don't expect them to back down. Win or Loss.
I expect poise and constraint against any other team however.
Spot on jj.....say hello to the *new* bad guy......it's about time.

I did, too. For the first time in a lifetime of football and hockey games attended, I actually cheered an injury. Looking around the stadium it looks like the majority of fans there did. Certainly not how I was taught, but, I can live with it.

...and the Bengals are only bad on the field! There are no rapists or dog killers on the Cincinnati roster.
