@RB Twitter-Ku...
No more one forty limit...
Just 575 .....#Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeath.
Isn't it funny
#Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeath has his own candy bar
But it's not named #Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeath.
(Ok, you're gonna need some rules for this new site. Are hashtags silent? I read them as silent on twitter. Sometime the word after the hash tag should be silent and other times not. Are @s silent? I read them as silent too. But let's say I want to send you my Hines-Ku and I'm like, Hey RB, check this out so I start off @RB. Is that 0, 2, or 3 syllables? I think it could vary by situation. In the above, I counted it as 2. And I feel shorted wasting 2 syllables on a shout out.)
a couple things of note...
-first time I've ever seen someone use "CTFU". I thought you were being rude to Ruthless for some unexplainable reason. Thankfully, google helped me out on this one.
-I don't know if you meant to do it or not, but the next two lines after that are very good candidates for conversion to haiku, and the punctuation used even made me read it that way
And just for reference, here's the complete list of NFL coaches who have more years as a head coach than Tomlin and a higher winning percentage:
John Madden
Vince Lombardi
George Allen
Ray Flaherty
George Halas
Don Shula
But yeah, let's go ahead and fire the guy because the team had an emotional let down after a huge division win.
In response to his pleas, an officer said: "You think we've never arrested somebody that's made national media? ... We deal with the Bengals all the time."

replacing Tomlin? Not happening anytime soon...
However, I think some of the responsibility for motivating the team falls on the HC and coaching staff.
Here We Go Steelers, Here We Go...
Here We Go Steelers, Here We Go...
Here We Go Steelers, Here We Go...!!!
I find Twitter to be virtually unreadable because of all the # and @ everywhere. Those symbols are thereby banned from my haiku social media. And that sign that Prince changed his name to for a while is also banned...if it's not pronounceable, we don't know how many syllables it is.
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.
If hundreds of thousands of dollars aren't motivating them do you really think 40 and 50 year old men raising their voices is going to do the trick. These players have been yelled at their entire lives. They know how to tune out when getting yelled at. All you had to do was watch Cowher's antics and the expression on the player's faces. They just checked out, let him rant and moved on.
I went to a military school and it took about 2-3 weeks to figure out how to shutdown when you had multiple people screaming at you 6" from your face. That doesn't motivate and it doesn't work. In addition, I taught leadership in the Army for several years and the least effective manner of motivating experienced individuals was aggressive behavior. If anything i had the opposite effect than that intended. As I said yesterday, this isn't Pee Wee football and these players are 10 years old.
