Do we still HATE pittsburgh with the passion we use to?

[CJD]

I've softened my anger towards the Steelers this past season.

I was on assignment in Puerto Rico for 15 weeks last year, between September and December and I was working with two Steelers fans.
It was just us and 1 other guy ( a Niners fan if you can believe it) that we knew down here, so we all tended to hang out, despite our allegiances. I hated both of their teams with a passion.

So we were watching a lot of football together. And I got to know them and everything.

And they really humanized the Steelers for me. I learned that they, as fans, go through the same shit with the Steelers that we go through with the Bengals. They aren't like these cocky, big headed ass hats that I, and perhaps a lot of bengals fans, perceive them to be.

So, through them, I began to hate the Steelers and their fans a little less.

I used to love seeing Steelers get injured, mainly out of spite for all the awful injuries they've caused over the years.

Now I just am content to see them lose. And maybe a minor injury. Or two.
