Quote:write this to you in the hopes that you will do your best to avoid injuring the Steelers players. I know it sounds crazy and what happened to Carson Palmer when he was with Cincy was tragic (I know you weren't a Bengal yet), yet not intentional. Which brings me to what I wanted to talk about, I know you're not a dirty player and you don't try to intentionally hurt people but over the past 3 years or so, you seem to have found a way to injure two key offensive weapons for the Steelers.

Heath Miller was having all pro season in 2012, Ben was targeting him often, especially in the Red-Zone, but on one fatal Sunday at Heinz Field, with the AFC North on the line, you seemed to have hit him at his knee and the unfortunate thing is he wound up tearing his ACL that game, and he was never the same after that hit. Fast forward to December 2014, another Sunday at Heinz Field, with the AFC North again on the line, Le'veon Bell was having a great season, show casing his receiving and his running ability (let's not forget his blocking either), anyway I saw Bell running a route over the middle (danger) and I saw you, you did not hesitate and you went straight in for the tackle, low, the way the NFL wants it. In term though Bell's knee wound up being injured (by the way thank you for keeping is knee ligaments intact) and he wouldn't play in the wild card game against the Ravens and we all know how that went.

Anyway my point is Mr. Nelson, is that we're both fighting for the same goal, to win the AFC North and win the Superbowl. Those aspirations can happen for either team, they're realistic (and for gods sake let's not see another New England Superbowl, BLEH!) and they can be accomplished if none of our respective team's star power get's hurt. Wouldn't that be great, no injuries, just a hard fought battle to the end with nobody being seriously hurt. No if's and's or but's, no question on which team wins, no blaming injuries for ruining each others seasons. That would be great for a change for both of our respective teams that seem to have encountered all these injuries in our big time matchups.

I know it's unrealistic but I thought I might as well give it a shot, since we both seem to have suffered setbacks after the games our teams have matched up against each other. Anyway, good luck to your team, hope we get an injury free game this Sunday and hopefully the next time our teams play again.

-Sincerely Steelers Nation

If anyone wants more reason to hate Steeler fans, here's a story from my weekend:

My wife, son, and I attended a birthday party for a friend's kid this weekend.  One of the families that was invited didn't make it, and I inquired as to why.  Turns out this dude, who was already kind of a doucher in my opinion, was in Pittsburgh attending the game Sunday night.  

When told this I looked at the dude relaying the story incredulously.  I replied:  "He's a Steeler fan?  I've known him for twelve years and have even partied with him and his cousins, who are legit Stooler fans, and no mention of this from him."  My buddy explained that the guy was first a Dolphins fan, then a Bucs fan, then a Colts fan under Peyton.  This season, however, he up and decided he was a Steeler fan.  Bought the gear and the whole nine.  

I can't explain it rationally.  I now officially hate this piece of dogshit on so many levels, and it all stems from contributing perfectly to the stereotype of the bandwagon Steeler fan.  It's such a slap in the face to real fans of all teams and speaks volumes about a person when they go that route as a fan.  Some of us take fan hood seriously while others just ride shit out and hop from team to team.  After seeing the Bengals go through the dark days and still have fans like the ones on this board, it makes my disdain for this type of fan even greater.

I love Hue and the way he doesn't mince words. It adds some toughness to our team. They want what we have lets see them try to take it!

Here comes Shitsburgh with their rhetoric before Sunday's game. They are still on the Burfict hit from last time. (Funny how they don't mention the hit on Jones, or the "Your Next" comment to Green) We have everything they don't and I want Cincy to go into Sunday's game pushing and bullying the Steelers on the field for a change. I know one person who will kick their asses (Burfict), I just hope the rest of the team takes his lead and knocks their asses back to Pittsburgh and out of the playoffs!

This will be fun.
