I would love to see a professional sports team web site with NO ADS. I think I could then die in peace. Come on, aren't you guys making enough money to subsidize a web site for crying out loud? How much do you pay to maintain the site anyway. You've probably got some sort of intern running it or, if you don't, you probably should. It's really not that difficult anymore. Give us ONE stinking break, huh? Tickets are already a fortune, hot dogs are $5, beer is about $72 a gallon, with sodas not far behind. Whaddaya say?
Thanks to Mike Prisuta of "Talkin' Steelers Football" for the accurate 6-word analysis of the Harrison v. Seymour fine controversy. Listen to the discussion at Talkin' Steelers Football - 11/23/10.
I was glad Tomlin got my memo about Randle El's sub-par play and the need to activate Antonio Brown. In spite of going through every O-Lineman on the roster and a season's-worth of poor officiating the defense dominated and the offense managed to accumulate 35 points.
I had commented prior to the game concerning the irony that the offense had only managed to score more than 27 points once since Mr. R's return after getting a season-high 38 in Game 3 at Tampa Bay with Charlie Batch at QB. After a four play start to the game (for the second consecutive week), the offense was opened-up a bit by Bruce Arians. The defense returned to pre-New England form and, at the end of the first half, the outcome was basically decided.
They go into Buffalo next week against a Bills team that has won twice after losing their first 8 games. I don't think a Steelers letdown or a Buffalo trifecta is in the offing. So barring any additional O-Line injuries or an offensive disaster... Steelers 30 Buffalo 10.
Oh, and the new kicker did fine; 5 XPs means a good game all around.
