The Crying is Embarrassing - jj22 - 12-01-2021

From the supposedly unbiased sports media. And I loved every minute of it.

Feel like I owe somebody some money for that entertainment

I’m not watching 8 minutes of Stephen A Smith, but the beginning was pretty funny. :lol:

Ryan Clark was harsh, but accurate.

My God they are whining so hard.

Mike Tonkin has always been a mediocre to terrible coach coasting off Bill Cowhers roster.


RE: The Cryng is Embarrassing - Gdale_Bengal - 12-01-2021

It’s glorious


RE: The Cryng is Embarrassing - bengaloo - 12-01-2021

Steven A Smith is embarrassing.

Bill Cowher stopped coaching in 2007. That is 14 seasons ago

From '07-'10, Tomlin had a 5-2 playoff record, including 2 SB appearances and one SB win.

Since then, he has a playoff record of 3-6 and hasn't won a playoff game since '16.

It was a very impressive coasting job.

How about some cliffs for those of us who don't want to listen to that jackass?

Bill was 8-8 his last year, yes the Steelers still had talent but Tomlin did a good job and by 2010 on offense there was few starters left from 2006 team.  I agree Tomlin has not achieved well over last decade but he still has not had a losing season and made the playoffs six times in last 10 years so he is far from mediocre coach.

Best I can do;

Stephen A: wah wah wah wah wah wah wah

The rest: we agree

Ad nauseum

Basically 8 minutes of classic steeler fans living in the past. Tons of references to the "old steelers" and their teams of the 70s where just about every player made the HOF.

Stephen A. used the word embarrassing as much as Allen Iverson used "practice" in his rant.

The group all basically said the same thing over and over: the steelers are soft, and they don't have any pride. There was not one ounce of credit given to Cincinnati (which doesn't surprise me), but only complaints about how soft the steelers are playing. Ryan Clark went as far as saying: "These are the Bengals, who lost to the Jets and got pounded by the Browns at their own stadium". I wish I was there to cheekily remind him that this is also the Bengals team that before 3 straight road games pounded pitt at their own stadium and the Ravens at theirs.

One last odd point: At roughly 7:35, Stephen A. said "they couldn't even get a damn penalty". I have no idea what that was in reference to. Was he complaining about officiating? That would be rich. Or maybe he was expecting a Kimo-like assassination attempt?

The bottom line is: the steelers lost their intimidation factor when the league started policing leading with the helmet. It has long been their weapon of intimidation. It is gone. They have no answer. They are not a few players away. They are dead and buried. I waited a long time for Jim Tressel to turn the tide at OSU vs. Michigan (not remotely close to my love for the Bengals...not even in the same universe, let alone the same zip code) but I knew it was coming. And Michigan was down for nearly 20 years. It is time the steelers, and their legion of fat loser fans, face two decades of ineptitude and embarrassment. Enjoy, pitt. I am pissing on your ashes.

He used the word embarrassing so much because these are classic stealers fans who get their self-worth from being "part of stealer nation" and since the team they root for is tough so are they. Like that means anything, any loser can buy stealers gear and say the same thing. As the mantle shifts, just watch them become "Bengals fans"

I am not one of those guys who hates every game announcer and cries about how he can not even watch ESPN.  I rarely even pay attention to who is calling the game and I have no problem with most analyst on TV.

But I just cannot watch Stephen A. Smith, Skip Bayless, or anyone on "First Take". 


RE: The Cryng is Embarrassing - ochocincos - 12-02-2021

I wouldn't personally call that crying.
It's simply stating that the team used to be good and feared, but now it isn't.
And Roethlisberger is on his last leg.
I don't think this team is a true playoff contender (even if they make the playoffs), so it might make sense for Roethlisberger to consider retirement after this year or next. The other two main QBs from his draft class - Rivers and Eli - have both retired.

This. This is exactly what I was going to post. Now that the league is cracking down on cheap shots and spearing, they ain't shit. I've raised that point a time or two on various threads. This is exactly the bottom line. No one fears them because they can't cheap shot folks and get away with it anymore. It's obvious their demise coincided with the crack down on helmet to helmet hits. No more "keeping your head on a swivel".

This is one of the most accurate and unbiased things ever posted on this board.

They sounded angry that the Bengals were celebrating. Oh and the first play he ever saw was the Immaculate Reception? Never saw a football game before and then just happened to walk in the room then?
