I second that.

Stephen Smith: Skip you're wrong again! Aaron Rodgers is a much more tender lover! And he's not jealous when I want some time with my Clay Matthews and his HGH-enhanced jawline...
Skip Bayless: Stephen! Stephen! Stephen! Have you not seen Tebow's puppy-dog eyes, the way they peer into your...

Strangely snarky yet menacing voice off-camrea: Skip! Stephen! The viewers have had enough! Spare us the headache and stop your bitching!
Skip: Are you...
CM Punk: And moaning!
Stephen: Now wait a...
CM Punk: And bitching!
Skip: Who do you...
CM Punk: And moaning! Best in the world by the way...

The rest of that pretty much goes down as most of us would imagine.

The Bills gave up 31 pts to the Patriots in the 4th quarter two weeks ago, and they managed a whopping 3 pts while allowing more than 600 total yards of offense to the 49ers. They've been historically bad - by pre-merger NFL standards, even.

And Cleveland is just Cleveland. :P

Oh. I thought it was an article just about football, and not sports cities in general.

This comment is a good one:

"I'm a big Detroit fan, but considering this is a right now type of thing, no. The Red Wings aren't playing. The Pistons are going to be horrible. The Lions are 1-3. The Tigers being in the playoffs is the city's only saving grace. Now if this was last time last year, absolutely. Red Wings were good, Pistons were locked out, Tigers in the playoffs, and Lions 5-0 was hard for anyone to top."

It says a lot when your team looks better to fans when it's locked out. :lol:

At some point, you just want a team on a winning streak to lose.

lol, just lol.

That said, i hope to god the Steelers draft a good CB or Safety in April. Our Secondary looks like shit even if Polamalu is able to return for more than a quarter at any point this season.

EDIT: Also, a new Right Tackle would be good too. Gilbert is good, but he injures too many of his teammates (Pouncey & DeCastro were both injured when he fell on them) and is a puppy dog (meaning he gets injured on the field too much).
