Seahawks Fandamonium: 10 Reasons ‘Hawks Fans Hate the Steelers

When are you whiny assholes going to get over it already, if Seattle was such a great team, why didn't they repeat and had to sneak in last year with a losing record? Grow up! Funny, every time you guys lose a game, you blame the refs.

Are you kidding everybody knows that the ref's were in Rooney's pocket. Seahawks and Cardinals both got ripped off by the Steelers. They should just change the 2nd "e" to an "a" and make it official; the Pittsburgh Stealers. Seeing them get knocked off by the Packers brought great pleasure and I was a "Cheesehead" for at least a day.

I have friends that are stealers fans who have agreed to not talk NFL football and specifically SB XL. This can be hard, some of them are in my fantasy football league, one is a neighbor.... Right after the game for a couple of days they were loud & proud; but, as time went on, and having various networks, web sites and others question the game, they became very quiet. Has any of the stealer players every really defended that game? I can't think of any that did/have. Roastaburger was too young/stupid/inept to "lead" a team to a SB victory; look at that whole season. It was a VERY heavy run orriented team with Runamucker keeping the other team deafense honest. Even the grumpy pouty faced coach never was real comfortable with the win. The next year he walks and takes a job in studio. I'm not fond of his commentary, but, I don't like the CBS pre-game show very much so I may be baised. Does he wear his ring on the show? I'm not so sure the win over the Seahawks followed three years later with a win over the cardnials proves the NFC West is the NFC Weak. I think it shows coaching that is consistant and determined. The big knock against our division that we're "weak" is false. Teams play very hard against each other, but, only the AFC West can compare to the travel that the NFC West goes through, and half of those teams are West of the Rockies. Starting times do matter. I'd like to see the NFC West home games start at 4 PM local, but, know it won't happen unless they're playing SNF or MNF.

Finally, any stealer fan that wants to throw that game in my face, I just remind them that we took 30 years to get to our first SB, they took 40. I beleive the loss in SB XL took a lot out of Holmy. He was never quite the same in inovation or chances took. His final season in 08 was a lame duck season, followed by Mora who is a good commentator, but not head coach material. Pete Carroll is the best thing for the Seahawks since Holmegren came along. He's fresh, excited and has a plan. I was very excited about all of last year, especially beating the defending SB champs. I look for the Seahawks to contend for the division title again in '11 and play in SB XLVII!

Go Seahawks!

For me about the worst part of it was the fans at SB XL. The Steeler fans were just terrible...they were rude the week leading up to the game. In the two-hour line to get in the gates they consistently told us we didn't belong there and our "crappyness" would rob them of a real Super Bowl win, calling us names that a salty dog wouldn't even dare mutter.

Their rude ways continued during the game and after. I know..."not every fan was like that." But...the sheer volume of Steeler fans that were willing to insult the Seahawk fans speaks poorly of their base.

I think Mike Holmgren is the only NFL coach to severely criticize the officials and get an apology not reprimand or fine. Says a lot.
