Ravens-Steelers disaster was a highlight reel of everything wrong with the NFL this year
As a fan of sports, this year has been very conflicting. If I can’t have sports in person, I at least want sports on my TV. I love sports.

The Steelers Specifically Didn't Want This To Happen, Which Makes It All The Funnier

The Steelers Are Happy To Let Ben Roethlisberger Feel As Important As He Thinks He Is

Great, The Steelers Are Going To Do This Whole Shit Again With Antonio Brown
The Pittsburgh Steelers spent a significant portion of their 2018 season alienating running back Le’Veon Bell for wanting job security, then the players who were there argued with each other, and then they had to hope for the Browns to win in order to get into the playoffs. (The Browns did not win.)...

Hmm, The Patriots Are Supposed To Be Scary In December

Ramon Foster And Maurkice Pouncey Are Examples Of How The NFLPA Beats Itself

The Steelers' Privacy Tarp Would Be No Match For My Espionage Abilities
