Word on the Street

As we approach the halfway point of the 14 Days of Steeler Superness, I though we all would like to hear the buzz on the street about America's Team.

QUOTES:

"...sure, the Yankees get all the good players, but the Pittsburgh Steelers are the best run franchise in American Sports..." - Colin Cowherd, ESPN Radio

"...we are who we are, partially because of the Ravens. Iron sharpens iron..." - Mike Tomlin, head coach of the 5 time Superbowl Champion Pittsburgh Steelers

"...now I feel like a different quarterback, a different man. Different team..." - Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, when likening his Superbowl XL performance to now

"...they (the Ravens) wanted us, and they got us, and now they are going home..." - Hines Ward, future Hall of Fame wide out and resident Ravens instigator

"...a Steeler Superbowl is better than unlimited beer and porn..." - Brian Watterson, Editor in Chief of the 3 time Pulitzer Prize Winning blog, PittsburghFan

"...sure, the Eagles lost in a controversial finish, but Governor Rendell fully intends upon following through on his idea to change the name of Philadelphia to Titletown..." - Girard McKensington, top spokesman for Governor Edward Rendell

"...can I get three Hawaiian shirts, all XXXXXXL..." - Andy Reid, coach of the NFC Runner Up Philadelpia Eagles

"...Slaughtering the Ravens is more refreshing than the arrival of a new born baby..." A-Dawg

"...thank God for the Steelers, no one is noticing that we are sitting in 10th place..." - Mario Lemieux, owner of the underachieving Pittsburgh Penguins.

How cool was it seeing Fluery in a Steelers Helmut!

Yes, unfortunately Fleury makes about as many big saves as Limas makes big catches days. He should skate out wearing a #14 next week!
