    The fine should have been $15,000 but Goodell figured, ehhhh, its just the Browns.

    When I said "I hope they fine his a.ss," this wasn't whom I was referring to.

    Can we at least remove that word from the censors?

    As long as D!ck stays on there. Can't get enough of our defensive coordinators new nick name. Yes, I regularly refer to him as Bad Word Lebeau now thanks to this board.

    Yup, the combination of FWP on offense and BWL's defense will be hard to stop.
    Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

    Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

    We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

    We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.
