The National Football League

Steelers fans care nothing about the Eagles. Penguins/Flyers does not carry over to football. Tbh, Steelers fans hate the Cowboys so kinda have an affinity for the Cowboys division rivals.

edit: just caught up and see I was ponied vis a vis Steelers/Cowboys.

Thatā€™s way overblown. The team and organization sucked, it had snowed, and they made no effort to clear the seats of snow and left the fans to do it. The Santa they had booked didnā€™t make it in, and they grabbed a drunk, skinny fan in a raggedy Santa suit and trotted him out there and the rest is history.

Yes, 100%. Itā€™s super annoying and frustrating but thatā€™s how the industry works. Kids of broadcasters, former players, and kids of wealthy connected people get first dibs and the rest can fight over the remaining scraps.

Likewise, other than not liking Roethlisberger for obvious reasons, I have no hate for the Steelers. Oh and Bill Cowher is a massive dick, but other than thatā€¦

Who are the good broadcasters not in those categories?

Two famous ones who come to mind quickly because I met them through Syracuse are Bob Costas and Mike Tirico.

One of those is not like the others.

My bet is still live if you want someone to root for during the rest of the playoffs.

No shit? NICE! But hopefully Iā€™ll be rooting against you at some point.

Bengals fans:

What are you rooting for tomorrow night? To go to Tennessee or Buffalo?

Got a playoff win, donā€™t care.

Not a Bengals fan, and you probably have to wait for them to sober up tomorrow. I expect to be wrong, but I think Tennessee is the easier out.

Tenn clearly, they donā€™t have any pass defense.

Also might be 30 degrees warmer

This must be what Michigan was feeling after the tOhSt game.

Tenn because they play close games. Except they are off a bye and our D line might be in shambles.
Buff could be an epic shootout.

Having thought about it more, my preference is whichever matchup will lead to the game being scheduled for Sunday.

As a cowboys fan this pains me but I am pulling for eagles. Also Dallas (ldo) and chiefs.

But theyā€™ll be back next year, natch. :roll_eyes:

NPD is crazy man
