    I've seen a very good live performance of this song actually.

    As for the thread, those were great because you could really see how the trolls or naysayers really think, it was more insightful than a typical "we suck" or sky is falling thread.[/quote:39fx9keu]

        No I just thought maybe you had come up with this after you hit your head on the sink after you fell off the toilet
        No, last time I fell off the toilet, I just forgot why I was standing on the toilet.
        The experience didn't inspire me at all.

        Actually, I have two forms of inspiration for this thread that I think I'll be doing every week.

        1) The poster formerly known as tommiesteel with his "I have a bad feeling" threads.
        2) Paps reverse mojo prediction.
        What is this reverse mojo you speak of? :P

          I know "Persian" would make sense being that Detroit is known for it's large Iraqi population, but I think it is the Detroit Pershing Doughboys, if I'm not mistaken.

          Should have looked that one up.

            It wouldn't surprise me in the least if the Steelers went up there and lost. Detroit plays hard, they want to feel good about going up against last years Super Bowl champs, our defense is a shell of what they used to be and you never know about a BA offense.

              I disagree 100% we know exactly what we get with this year's offense based on the first 4 games. They are good, very good and should put up points easily. The question is whether or not the defense can play for 60 minutes.

                Thanks for bringing that guy back to my cranium.

                    I have my own room, so nobody helped.

                    I forgot to mention one of my concerns...

                    Our defense has a history of making rookie Qb's look good.

                      Our defense has a history of making rookie Qb's look good.
                      Stafford may look good standing on the sideline due to his knee subluxation.

                      But I expect our defense to make Daunte Culpepper look like, well...Daunte Culpepper.
                      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.

                        you wouldnt be surprised if the steelers lost? i would be shocked. i have only seen the lions saints game week 1 but they do look better than last season but i would still say they are a bad team. if the defense contains calvin johnson and kevin jones then they wont do anything on offense. the way the offense has played so far this season they should have a huge game on the ground and passing.

                          I'm a firm believer that anything is possible in the NFL.

                            Will that Steelers FO stop at nothing to steal a win?
