    I come to Deadspin for some laughs, and to hopefully provide a few as well. If anyone thinks I really believe Polamalu dresses as a woman and dances in front of a mirror and took offense I sincerely apologize. For your stupidity.

    Well, of course China roots for Pittsburgh. The last time everyone had a job was the 70s and they share a storied history of mass-producing poison.

    If this gentleman was implying that the entire Ravens team was once Eustace de Leveland, Archdeacon of Lewes in 1220, then I simply don't understand the intended slight.

    If Ray Lewis is looking for a new team the Cowboys are looking for a piece of human garbage to play defense. Does anyone not see Jerry Jones trying to do this.

    Okay, Pittsburgh, I rooted for you last night for the first time in my life for obvious reasons. Now that that's over allow me to say:


    Your city sucks. It's an overgrown Youngstown. Ben is overrated. The 70's teams were all cheating steroid abusers and it's no surprise most wound up living in a van somewhere. Primanti's is seriously overrated. Isaly's ice cream tastes like ass. Polamalu wears that hair so he can dress as a woman more easily.

    Your city is an overgrown Harlem. If Ben played for the Browns he would be the best quarterback your franchise EVER had..so thanks for the "slight".


    Polamalu's hair tackles better than the entire Browns defense.


    Modell saw the great football town you think you are. The best you can do is hope that the new LeBron commercial actually comes true- you might go 8-8 with him.

    How exactly could Ben be overrated? How many articles have been written on WWL or SI (Peter King mostly) consistently placing Ben behind such QB juggernauts as Carson Palmer?


    5 years, 3 AFC Championships, 2 SB appearances...at some point facts have to enter the discussion.

    I almost sent this in! I noticed this sign and rewound the Tivo and howled at it.

    Reality check- if you have fun rooting for a division rival team in a conference championship game- - your team sucks!

    Maybe Otto can come into Browns camp this year and challenge for the top spot..

    Roethlisberger QB Rating Super Bowl: 22.6
    Dilfer QB Rating Super Bowl: 80.9

    You forgot one:

    Cleveland Browns QB Rating Super Bowl: HNA (have never appeared)


    How about another stat:

    Roethlisberger Super Bowl rings: 1

    Entire Browns franchise: 0 (oh my bad, 1, cause the real Browns are in Baltimore)

    @formerly Chief Wahoo: No, and comparing the two is ridiculous.


    You dont win as many games in your first 5 seasons as Ben has, on par with Aikman and Brady, based on luck.


    If you want examples of an overrated QB, I would point you to the breathless prose committed to paper regarding Derek Anderson during the last offseason...

    @Mick Kraut: Clearly you haven't been on this site long, as I have been quite vocal about DA being ridiculously overrated from the jump.


    My point about Ben, which you seem to be missing, is that he has benefitted enormously by playing for a team with one of the consistently most dominant defenses. Don't start comparing Roethlisberger to Brady or Aikman, you'll only embarrass yourself.

    Did someone inform Alan Funt about this? Could be a copyright violation. A hilarious copyright violation, but a violation nonetheless.

    So the Cardinals have a bit of an edge when it comes to receivers


    Unfortunately, that advantage is cancelled out by their Edge at running back...
