Steeler fans "get it"

The fans of the johnny-come-lately teams don't "get it"

The petty fans who hate the Steelers because they are the best will never "get it"

I'm amused every year at the fans of the team du jour (Titans this year) who live for their team being compared to the Steelers.

How cool is it that every year the "surprise team" like the Titans this year and the Browns last year get a woody because they are mentioned in the same sentence as the Steelers?

It's not about winning a game against the best, it's about being the best; not for one game or even one season, but for decade after decade.

It's not even about winning multiple Super Bowls during a run of incredible dominance, it's about being competitive year after year, decade after decade, while having your own runs of dominance mixed in!

It's not about showing up the best by stepping on the towel, it's about being a family of winners (the Steelers and their fans) year after year, decade after decade!

It's not about getting your turn with karma, it's about setting the bar for karma!

It's not about your prima donna players gelling for long enough to win some big games, it's about a city, an owner, a team, and it's fans creating a nation which is the standard by which all others are judged!

LOL!! Well done sir, well done. I could've seriously challenged you in the Schramm/Landry days, but nowadays the Steeler organization stands alone IMO. Almost solely because they let Plaxico Burress go. :laugh:

i guess Giants fans get it because they are better than the steelers team wise life time overall
Overall
Team Win Loss Tie Pct.
Giants 626 529 33 0.541
Steelers 541 518 21 0.511

edit: stats as of the start of the 2008 season
 
Tailgating in the 'burgh during playoffs. What a wonderful time of the year. I'm second from the left, looking down toward the table.

I'm a second generation fan. Dad rooted for the 50's and 60's bad teams. He and I cheered the glorious 70's teams. We suffered through the 80's, but never stopped supporting the Steelers. Like Charlie Daniels said - 'You just go and lay your hand on a Pittsburgh Steeler fan and I think you're gonna finally understand.'

GO STEELERS!!!

You gotta give the Giants and their fans credit, particularly after last year and this year combined. But, in the modern era of football (what have you done for me lately) they rank in the middle of the pack. Hell the Browns have a better life time record!

Since the 1970 merger: (through week 5 of this season)

....................................%.....Div. Titles.......SB
Pittsburgh Steelers.......603.........18............5-1
New York Giants ..........485.........6.............3-1
