Hopefully I'm Not Fined for Writing This

Time to rant.

In one week the Steelers received $45,000 worth of fines.

Unreal.

Nate Washington, Ryan Clark, Hines Ward and James Harrison were all fined.

To me, the NFL wants money. Actually, the NFL wants money.

So let me get this straight, guys can get arrested and take steroids and get 1 game suspensions and 4 game suspensions, yet if a guy steps over a defender he get's fined $5,000. Makes a lot of sense.

It is completely ridiculous what the NFL is doing. They are simply making an example of the Steelers to the rest of the NFL.

If I were Dan Rooney I would go after the NFL on this. TO do this to a team like the Steelers is just incredibly stupid. They have been having a good season and seem to have some momentum and this is doing nothing but causing a distraction.

Even humble ole quiet Troy Polamalu called what the NFL is doing as an attempt to make football a "pansy" game. Wonder how much he'll be fined?

And he is absolutely right.

The NFL isn't for sissies, it's not for the weak. Linebackers and defensive tackles are not kicker and punters. They hit hard and they talk smack. THAT'S THE GAME!

Get over it NFL. And if you can't people will eventually stop watching.

On another note, the Penguins are struggling, yet they are still getting some wins. Tonight they have Ovechkin and the Caps. Should be a good one.

Let's Go Pens!

I'll be traveling to Cincinnati for the first time this weekend to watch my beloved play.

Pics to come with recap on Monday.

Go Steelers!
