ATTENTION PITTSBURGH: You only have one more week to churn out sh-tty parody songs
Steelers fans’ primary method of expressing affection for their team seems to be the time-honored craft of song parody. Which brings us to this nugget from “Steeler Dan & the Roethlis Burgers”. It’s not the best Steeler-themed parody to come along this month and maybe it’s not the worst– but it’s definitely the most annoying.
Fun Fact: The anthropomorphic foodstuffs say “Roethlisberger” fourteen times, it only seems like a quadrillion.

I blame “rally” songs like this for Pittsburgh never having a decent band do a show in town.
Dear Cave,
I respect the fact that you’re a hateful fucker with a tiny black heart, I really do, but you’re seriously giving haters everywhere a bad name. You’ve started to hate something that has become popular to hate, which allows me to accuse you of bandwagon jumping. So kill yourself, you front running piece of shit. There are so many different ways to do it, from the totally emo drug overdose to the crowd pleasing “douse yourself in flames and strike a match”. I don’t care how you do it, just stop being alive, the world will be a much better place, and your loved ones will finally be able to enjoy their lives.

@ Caveman,
I won’t speculate about the source of your irrational douche-baggy hatred. I will assume at face value that it is genuine.
I do have a question tho’ (just outta random curiosity):
When watching Steeler games, do you stop hurling invective and spittle at the TV screen during the commercial breaks, or do you just sorta keep going until you pass out from the lack of oxygen?
January 24th, 2009 at 10:22 am
I don’t mind watching the Steelers, actually. It’s their fuckface fans whose existence I can’t tolerate.
You’ve started to hate something that has become popular to hate, which allows me to accuse you of bandwagon jumping. So kill yourself, you front running piece of shit.
Aww, that’s cute. Someone’s new to the hating game.
January 24th, 2009 at 10:36 am
Agreed, Georger is the big winner.
@ CC- I like where you’re going with the hate. Whoever did this video should be dragged into the street and beaten with his own videocamera and computer. That way, at least we won’t have to see his floating head videos anymore.

January 24th, 2009 at 10:44 am
^+1 Steeler fans don’t go out of their way to be fucksticks (unlike some ‘bloggers I could mention), they simply love their football team. Hatin’ on them makes about as much sense as hatin’ on Packers Backers.
January 24th, 2009 at 11:10 am
If it’s wrong to hate, I don’t want to be right.
/Die.
January 24th, 2009 at 11:14 am
Steelers fans ABSOLUTELY go out of their way to be fucksticks! They’ll wear their jerseys to other teams’ backers bars while watching games on a Steelers bye week. I saw Steelers fans sporting their Nate Washington jerseys at a goddamn Indians Tigers game in Detroit. Nate Washington!! They are ubiquitous and have more bandwagon fans than….dare I say….the Cowboys.
I put them above even Yankees fans in their annoyance. Being a Steelers fan is now the “cool” thing to do in the real world. That is the definition of bandwagon. Fuck you Pittsburgh.
January 24th, 2009 at 11:37 am
@ Limas- bandwagon fans happen to every team in every sport, it is a byproduct of winning. i live in St Pete- you should have seen all of these assclowns who all of a sudden were huge Rays fans when they made the postseason(actually not too surprising given the area, i.e. Bucs, Lightning). The difference is- you’ll still see a huge Steeler fan base when the team is having a down year.
January 24th, 2009 at 11:38 am
I live in Pittsburgh. I hate the Steelers. And it’s all because of the fans.
They’ll ask you, “Seeryisly doe, how kin yinz not like di Stillers? Picksburgh’s gawt five rings? How many diz Philly have?” So they basically recruit bandwagon fans, and god damn it if it doesn’t work around here. Something about waving a towel must appeal to mentally deficient shitheads. I swear to fucking God, if I had a dollar for every time I was asked some variation of this, I could buy my own fucking Super Bowl ring.
And while I’ll exempt many of the people on and around this site from this next statement, I have never met a fan base that knows less about football. Anywhere. No, you fat asshole, Casey Hampton can’t be your short yardage back. No, you toothless fuck, Hines Ward is a cheap shot artist, not a hall of famer. Yes, you sea cow with a 7 jersey that doesn’t fit, Ben did win a Super Bowl. Going 9-21 with two picks. Eat another hot dog, then eat my ass.
CC, I can’t thank you enough for bringing out my hate.

No, you toothless fuck, Hines Ward is a cheap shot artist, not a hall of famer.
Hate to break it to you, but if the Steelers win next weekend and Hines has even a decent game, he’s got more than a good chance of going to Canton.

@ Ape: Well, I’d argue he’s not a hall of famer. But he sure as hell can be a cheap shot artist and a hall of famer.
January 24th, 2009 at 12:04 pm
@ 85 – your comment about Ward being a cheap shot artist is laughable at best. football is a violent game and Hines plays the game as it was intended to be. I wish we had more recievers like him in the game and a lot less like TO
January 24th, 2009 at 12:10 pm
We get it, 85. You don’t like the Steelers. You drop the factoid that you live in Pittsburgh and dislike their fans every chance you possibly can. I live outside D.C. and can’t stand Redskins fans. It happens when you’re surrounded by an opposing fanbase. And I can say with absolute certainty that Eagles fans aren’t any better than either.
But, yeah, calling Hines a “cheap shot artist” and providing zero examples should be the calling card of the unreasoning Steelers hater. Oh noes, he hurt Keith Rivers by throwing a shoulder block when Rivers was trying to make a tackle! So cheap!
January 24th, 2009 at 12:10 pm
@ Goodell is Failing: All I’m doing is reading back what the players themselves say each and every time the question is asked. Who’s the dirtiest player in game? Rodney Harrison and Hines Ward make the list every time. Sorry, I’ll go with what the players themselves say, and what my own eyes tell me, before listening to yet another Steelers fan tell me the sky isn’t blue. It’s always the same thing, it’s a violent game, it’s how it’s supposed to be played. Fuck that. It is a violent game, and that’s before you start trying to injure guys.

I don’t have all day to look up other years, but this isn’t news. The only offensive skill player to make these lists every time. I think he’s dirty, but who gives a shit what I think? His peers think he’s dirty. They’re the one he’s injuring, whose teammates he’s injuring every time he gets a chance. Yeah, it’s fun seeing your guys light up another guy. I could watch your boy Ryan Clark crush Welker all day. Still, cheap shot. Maybe it’s not a coincidence the Steelers got fined so often this year.
January 24th, 2009 at 12:24 pm
there is no crying in football, but there is crying in 85’s house every time another player is injured by a clean hit from a “small” reciever. the humanity!
January 24th, 2009 at 12:25 pm
Maybe because he’s one of the few offensive skill players that is aggressive about blocking. Have you ever seen Hines dive at a player’s knees? No. Sorry he’s not DeSean Jackson and falling to the ground to avoid contact.Ultimately, yeah, he’s good at getting under other players’ skin, which results in cheap shots that he takes to draw penalties. I’ll take that.
Funny that you mention the Clark/ Welker hit and fines, because, uh, Clark wasn’t fined for that. Damn dirty Ryan Clark, getting fined for wearing a tribute to Sean Taylor earlier this year. What an asshole.

Hard to top that. :D
Saw some polls recently that showed that not only is the Steelers fan base one of the largest in the country, but it’s also the most stable. Steeler fans, by and large, are Steeler fans for life. So your complaints about Steelers “bandwagon fans” are groundless.
@85,
Well yeah, but you’re a Philly Eagles fan, so it’s not like your opinion is worth anything. :)

maybe that pussy Roger’s fines are the problem? but the Pats lawyers found that fines are tax deductible http://taxprof.typepad.com/taxprof_blog/2007/09/can-patriots-co.html even when you videotape your opponents play calling!
January 24th, 2009 at 12:38 pm
If other NFL players calling Ward dirty doesn’t make him dirty, then I need to rethink everything anyone’s ever said about Rodney Harrison. Because he must just be more aggressive about tackling.
Look, good player, aggressive player, but he crosses the line far more often than you guys care to admit. And yeah, he gets under players skin, often *by cheap shots* which in turn draw penalties. Do I hate the Steelers? God damn right, but aside from Steelers fans,… ahem… NO ONE DENIES THIS!
And Jesus, Ape, now I hate Sean Taylor because he hit Welker late? I know he wasn’t fined, but he did get a flag. So was it clean?

Well, considering the NFL said he shouldn’t have been flagged in the first place, yes. Clean hit.

January 24th, 2009 at 1:00 pm
Clark’s hit was the definition of going high on a defenseless receiver, in my opinion. The NFL defending that hit surprised – no, shocked – everybody when it happened (ex. the article you linked to, Ape). We’ll just have to disagree about that one, because no amount of Steeler hate is going to make me take the side of Welkah. Not happening.
Now on to this HGH thing…
January 24th, 2009 at 1:03 pm
Ape: Rodney Harrison being a dirtier player than Hines does not make Hines a clean player. That’s like saying because Brady Quinn is a gayer quarterback than Jeff Garcia, Jeff Garcia is not a gay quarterback. Or Kordell, if it makes you feel at home.
January 24th, 2009 at 1:14 pm

Fine. Have your opinion. Your opinion doesn’t have a Hall of Fame vote or a voice among the officiating crew, so it doesn’t matter much whether you’re convinced or not.
January 24th, 2009 at 1:36 pm
I have no problem with Ward making the HoF; I am completely indifferent regarding the Steelers and their fans; out here in CA I don’t deal with it too much.
However, I would like to see at least half of the 70s Steelers taken out of the Hall. HoF is an individual award, yes? Then why are so many Steelers in just because the TEAM was great? Lynn Swann? OOOHHH HE MADE A GREAT CATCH HE IS LIKE A BALLERINA OUT THERE TIPTOEING THE SIDELINE! Get fucked.

January 24th, 2009 at 4:00 pm
I get CC’s hate for the Steelers, can hardly blame Seahawks fans for taking that one to their grave. But am I to assume that the rest of the haters are Baltimore and Cleveland fans? If not, this is all rather new to me. I’ve not run across the kind of hatred for the Steelers on the intertubes that I have seen on here the past few months, before. I am persuaded to believe there is a pretty strong bandwagon hatred, ala New England, developing.

Nothing funnier than a bunch of angst-ridden, sexually-frustrated, insecure, self-loathing sociopaths banding together to hate something *just because other people like it*! Now THAT is All-American Idiocy riiht thar. “OOhhh- too many people like the Steelers, so I’LL be SO DIFFERENT and HATE them! That will make ME STAND OUT!”
Aaaahhh- the reasoning capacity of a brain-damaged toddler= Steeler-haters: As Stupid As They Want To Be :-)
Do you haters out there even understand what it is your alleged hate tells the world about you? Do you realize that foul-mouthed finger-pointing and pre-adolescent-level vulgarity and angst gives you the appearence of immaturity, weak-willed childishness, inherent inability to cope with external stimuli and a general retardation of the development of your adult psychological faculties? In other words: you are all stupid-ing yerselves to death.
Learning to cuss good doesn’t make you cool. And hating a sports team because you really secretly hate yourself doesn’t make you strong, or smart. It just makes you sound like an angry, hungry, spoiled child yelling for more of mommy’s teat.
The saddest part is that the Pied Piper’s of Animalistic Anger will be spouting out inanities about some _other_ team this time next year, so this isn’t really even GENUINE “hatred”, in the purest, genocidal/homocidal sense of the term. It’s just more mindless group-think, like when the little girls on the playground in the second grade all run around screaming just because everyone else is….
January 25th, 2009 at 3:12 am
Ape: Fair enough. Point is, neither did much in their careers overall. They both benefited from having big games on big stages but ultimately owe everything to the defense. In other words, if they were baseball players Joe Morgan would LOVE them.
Also, I agree with Older Than Twelve. Dude just makes sense, you know?

And look at the poll you cite. Rodney Harrison is the runaway top spot while Hines gets, what, four percent of the vote? Hardly damning stuff.
If you are the only offensive skill position player on a list of dirty players, then yeah: it is. It is a little more obvious if a defensive player is a cheap-shot artist that it is if a WR is one.
Hines is a great player, but give it a rest. We know he’s dirty. You know he’s dirty. Just admit it.
January 25th, 2009 at 3:06 pm
Hines is a great player, but give it a rest. We know he’s dirty. You know he’s dirty. Just admit it.
Nice NO ONE DENIES THIS statement from the Pats fan. No, actually, Hines is not a dirty player. Had I believed he was, I’d admit it. Just because four percent of the players of the league (and who knows where those four percent come from – they could all be bitter division rivals) don’t like it when an undersized receiver puts them on their ass, doesn’t mean he’s a dirty player. Sorry. Keep trying, though.
January 25th, 2009 at 4:07 pm
They don’t say “he’s dirty.” They say “boo-urns.”
January 25th, 2009 at 4:50 pm
Last comment from me on this… and I can’t believe there’s still an argument going on. This post was about singing hamburgers.
Ape, on that poll, it’s not four percent of players calling him a dirty player. It’s four percent calling him the dirtiest player. As in, dirtier than Rodney Harrison, dirtier than Roy Williams. If four percent are calling him the dirtiest, I’d venture to guess more than just those guys would put him in their top 5. Obviously, there’s not going to be any agreement on this, but that’s as close to objective evidence anybody is going to get in a stupid homer v. hater argument like this one.
Now I’ll await Professor Older Than Twelve’s $100 word-filled response calling me jealous or whatever.
January 25th, 2009 at 4:59 pm
Again: How do you know those four percent don’t all come from the Ravens, Browns and Bengals players? I don’t know if you can call them objective. And Sean Taylor had three percent in the poll. So you’re saying he should be remembered as a cheap shot artist?
And I’m not seeing any other commenters jumping in to back up the “Hines is a dirty player” claim. The two commenters doing so are avowed Steelers haters, one of whom, Tim Tebow’s Girlfriend’s Tits, posed for a while as “Steeltown” on these comment threads and made racist comments that he hoped people would assume was coming from a Steelers fan and thus make the rest of us look bad.
January 25th, 2009 at 6:32 pm
If the four percent were all Ravens, Browns, and Bengals players, I’m not sure it would make it that much less valid. Yeah, they would probably be less happy than the rest with the way Hines plays. On the other hand, they play in 6 of 16 games against the Steelers every year, and the fact that they’re rivals would probably make it more likely for cheap shots (in both directions) to be happening in those games. Same goes for any division, I would imagine. I guess I see it as ‘where there’s smoke, there’s fire’ and don’t think they’re picking on Hines just because he roves to smire.
Sean Taylor shouldn’t be remembered as a cheap shot artist. I’m not saying Hines should either. But I can’t agree that there’s nothing to those accusations when it’s other players putting them out there. Taylor was, like Hines is, one hell of a player, and they’ll both be remembered as such.
The last shot is yours if you want it, Ape. To be honest, I’m a little worn out on the haterade after this. Keep up the good work, I’m gonna work on bringing a little more funny. Unless the Steelers win.
January 25th, 2009 at 8:56 pm
Any coach that wouldn’t take Hines on their team is a fucking idiot, even if he does lay some cheap shots.
I imagine most people on here are Bengals fans that are pissed their rookies can’t keep their head on a swivel.
January 26th, 2009 at 9:16 am
