Bucky Brooks
The Steelers experience a Super Bowl hangover and are unable to defend their crown. Beset by injuries and inconsistent play, the Steelers limp to their first losing season since 2003.
Prediction: 7-9, third in AFC North

Re: What did the Steelers ever do

Well, his name is Bucky Brooks, so I don't believe the Steelers did anything to him, rather the kids in school and pretty much life has done this to him.

That being said, with the Steelers schedule, and talent level, along with a very poor division shaping up, it is irresponsible at best to say they will be 7-9. You don't have to crown them SB champs right now, but at least give them the respect of .500.

Re: What did the Steelers ever do

you know what really is annoying...do you think they would ever say anything of this nature to Bill Belechik and the anointed one Tom Brady?

I don't usually like to use the disrespect card, but where there is smoke...

I just hate these bozo's who are so-called experts...

Sorry about that wish we had a soap box emoticon that I could now step down from

Re: What did the Steelers ever do

never heard of this douche bag and it's not surprising. he thinks the steelers will win only 2 more games than the stains.

the greatest job in the world is sports writer. there is no accountability, no skill required and no repercussions if you're wrong. stay away from race (jimmy the greek) and you'll have a nice long career.........

Apparently Bucky was an NFL journeyman of sorts.

What did the Steelers do wrong? They have been successful. Don't forget wthat we live in a society where many people hate to see people (organizations) more successful than they are because "it isn't fair."

Sad statement that achievement is resented.

But that begs the question ... why don't the Pats* get similar treatment...

is it because they are cheaters?

and people like cheaters..

Re: What did the Steelers ever do

Some sports writers do this every year. They come up with the most off the wall predictions they can think of. Then, if they are somehow, miraculously correct they can bask in their genius. If their wrong, nobody calls them on it. Bucky is obviously trying to become famous and pulled this out of his butt. And I guess its working since we're talking about him today. Doosh.

What's bothering me the most this pre season is the idea that the only reason we were able to win last year was because Brady was hurt. I know I really shouldn't let it get to me, but it does. Effin cheaters

Re: What did the Steelers ever do

I read this articel yesterday and came away shaking my head. He was the only one out of a group of five or so "sports journalists" to go that way. All the others predicted us to go 11-5 or 12-4 and win the AFC North. What can I say, maybe Bucky had a brain hemorrhage that day? What a loser.

Why does that sound so familiar?

I don't know, but I read it alot on the Ravens forum!

Re: What did the Steelers ever do

Ask this guy to wager 0-$1000 of his own money on how confident he is that the Steelers will end up 7-9. I would venture to guess he wages less then $10 bucks. Just another guy talking out his a..s..s for a reaction.

When money is on the line these so called mediots all of a sudden regain all consciousness.

Re: What did the Steelers ever do

Memo to Bucky Brooks:

The Super Bowl Champion Steelers' 2009 schedule includes Detroit, Oakland, Kansas City, Denver, plus Cleveland and Cincinnati twice each. They should win those 8 games with relative ease. In order to be 7-9, they would have to lose one of those games and then lose every other game on their schedule.

Seriously, how can you predict a team will be "(b)eset by injuries" when we haven't even played a regular season game yet? What kind of idiotic stuff is that?
