can't believe you dudes i wont ever pull for the pack again until they stop running our offense. i hate the fact that mike holmgren took our system over there i hate brett favre for saying wco was not the niners but the pack's and i hate gb for running wco til this day i hate em for taking mccarthy and i hate em for runnin our system with a lifelong niner fan in aaron rodgers a kid that grew up learnin how to run the offense from our qbs. damn i hate the pack almost as much as the cowboys. i can respect the steelers because they play to their identity not ours not bears not cowboys they play to the steeler id. that is why i am pulling for them because they havent changed their concept of football much since the 70s still got that big back from franco harris to bus to mendenhall still got that under the radar qb that makes just enough plays at the right times from bradshaw to ben and they still winning ugly to this day. they are the steelers yesterday, today, and tomorrow. just like we are now seemingly getting back to our id the wco and hard hitting aggressive defense. your fan base will support u more fervently when u play to your id which is why nolan and sing were an epic fail. they were the antithesis of the niners. u tell me what is green bay's historic identity and contrast that to today's niner replica. they suck and i know this is a copycat league but damn tweak something in it to make it your own just don't copy everything and neglect to put that BW on your jersey instead of that dead players number. those dudes need to have a bill walsh bronze statue erected out front of their stadium. i would rather see a real team wit a real identity win the chip not the niner replica pack

lol. wut?

man i hating on the pack wit everything i got plus i dont want them gettin confidence of a super bowl win then having to see em every yr if the playoffs especially running our sh$t

seems reasonable.

Slightly.

man i'm a hater niners ain't in it so i gotta hate on somebody and the pack ain't authentic so imma hate them

hate away, my friend. i just think its silly to hate Green Bay for running the WCO. might as well hate the entire NFL because just about every team runs some version of the WCO.

Wouldnt you HATE to see the Steelers win another super bowl and have 2 more than the niners?

i just dont want pack to block us like they did so often late 90s and early this millenium plus i just hate em at least steelers in afc

lol. wut?

an example of why i'd prefer the pack win....


my conversation with one of said bandwagoners today:

bandwagonfan: "haha steelers won black and yellow!! niners suck."
me: "how long have you been a steelers fan?"
bwf: "for a while now!"
me: "do you know who was the qb before rothlisberger?"
bwf: "oh i don't remember..................."

What a great SB matchup this is....

We've seen Montana vs. Marino
Elway vs. Favre
just last year Manning vs. Brees

now Roethlisberger vs. Rodgers

Two outstanding QBs both with similar play styles; big athletes that move around extremely well and throw very well on the run.

Both teams play a very similar brand of 3-4 defense, with any 11 of the defenders on the field a potential blitzer on any play. Each QB faces the same type of defense in practice each week that they will see in the Super Bowl, so they both should be very familiar with what the defenses are trying to do. I expect both teams to move the ball and score lots of points in this one.

Key injury note is C Pouncey for Pittsburgh. After his absence the Steelers had two fumbles snaps from center, one resulting in a safety. His status is up in the air.

Early prediction

Green Bay 38
Pittsburgh 35

MVP - Rodgers
Sleeper MVP pick - WR James Jones

Should be fun. I don't especially like either of these teams personally but gotta love the Super Bowl.

Go Aaron Rodgers.

F the Steelers!

I want the Packers to win mainly so the Steelers don't get their 7th lombardi. So with that being said f**k both teams and Go Niners. haha.

The NFL is always high on the Steelers in Jan/Feb; I expect Goodell to exploit them as the 'Lakers' of the NFL for the foreseeable future.
