I am not sure I have the heart to show up for the Pittsburgh game...

I'll be there. Cheering/booing - depending on how things go in the game.

They signed Fitz,Wilson,Dockett,Kolb to Big deals. Evaluating talent or getting talent falls on graves.Whisenhunt only can coach whatever they give him. Spending isn't the problem,evaluating talent for what people are worth is the problem. Before the season people were actually thinking that graves did something l. All I say is support your team.

Whis has remarkable control over who gets or is off the roster. He has complete control over the 53, and Graves has said multiple times that he doesn't watch film of or evaluate (at least) college prospects.

If you have a problem with the personnel acumen of the franchise, that likely falls on Ken Whisenhunt, as well.

Steelers don't have James Harrison and haven't played well on the road this season. I think it's going to be good close game.

Whiz does have some control, but at what boundaries. A old ass Joey Porter. Didn't whiz want Bulger over Anderson. Not saying anything would've been different. But that goes to show you how much control he has.

How is that. This team put a 100% into trying to win. It's just unfortunate we got the short end of the stick. People act like we being getting beat by a average of 20 ppg. Why do you support this team if you don't think they aren't giving there best efforts.

Isn't that what he wrote? That if the team continued to give less than 100% like they did Sunday and have many times in the past that he didn't know if he could continue to support them?

How anyone can defend the horrendous product the Cardinals have put on the field for the last 16 games is beyond me. 3-13! You don't get that record simply because you got the short end of the stick in a few games.

This is our favorite team. We are sick and tired of them being so friggin' terrible just a few months after a 2nd consecutive NFC West title.

I'll be there. I expect them to play much better than yesterday. Not sure that will mean a win, however.

Everyone needs to show up for the Steelers game to see the players who will be on our roster next season play.

It will be like an East-West Shrine game. Maybe Jeff Gollin will make a list of Steeler players most likely to be picked up by the Cardinals and put it on the Big Red Sheet along with a brief analysis so we will know who to watch during the game.

There will be more Stealers fans at the game than us Card's fans. Sad, but true.

Please tell me the geniuses in this organization haven't picked the Pittsburgh game as one for us to wear our black jerseys. :D

Bah,

Par for the course.

I go to Flyers games in full Penguins gear all the time. No worse nor better than Eagles fans.

For some reason they don't screw with me. That and I don't instigate them back.

Dude, I would totally rock Pens gear at a Cryers game alongside you. EF the Broad Street Babies.

I'll be out in Arizona for the Steeler game and it would be very easy for me to not show and sell the tix.

I feel the same way. I have season tickets. I am not even really thinking about offloading them, but more wondering if I want to subject myself to the aggrevation. My section will be black and gold, same as it was last time the Steelers were in town. I think it could get ugly.

Real Steeler fans, I can deal with. But now that the Cards suck, and tickets will be cheaper as a result, the second-tier, bandwagon, idiot fratboy Steeler fans will now have an opportunity to snatch up seats. I just know they'll be around me.

Ugh. This may be the first game where UoP feels like SDS.

If anybody has a ticket and doesn't plan on going because we suck sooo bad then just fork it over to yours truly. I need beer money too.

Will you be more relieved to miss a loss than envious after missing a win? That's the question.

That is the question I keep asking myself. Steeler "fans" were obnoxious in defeat last time, I can only imagine how much worse it can get if they win going away.

Last time, I left the stadium smelling like someone else's beer. This time, I'll probably get shanked.

I went to pretty much every philly event in other teams gear - usually would take public transportation from campus as well

After a particular sonics drubbing I rode back while some guy across from me repeated (y'all got blown the "f" out) over and over and over

The crowds for all the other teams are much more civil than an eagles crowd ..... less tailgating, fewer numbers, etc.

You'll have more people drunk beyond walking at an eagles game than you can fit into whatever they call their arena these days

I never had severe problems for any of them - but don't go to an eagles game expecting a flyers crowd

You go, you do not have a choice. If your heart gives out, you go with your liver (it handles waste processing anyways for any stinky play on the field) and if the Cardinals cause you to drink like a fish and your liver gives out, you go with another remaining body part :)

On Sunday, I didn't think I would go to another game all season. Today, I'm starting to talk myself into it, Ben looks banged up, Harrison may be out, etc. I am guessing by next week, I will be looking forward to it.
