Lets Go Pittsburgh!!

[Teague31]

Our first step towards the #1 pick in the 2008 Draft. For 1 week, and 1 week only I love their overrated QB, their annoying (and slightly gay) towel waving fans, and their "history". Make me proud Steel City, and then go to hell (at least until the 2nd matchup) when I will root for you again.

Wouldn't that be 2 weeks instead of 1?

How bout' the Swami picked CLE to upset PIT? He's truly a Cowboy hater. He doesn't want us to get McFadden. I hate the Swami.

did he really? or did he pick them to beat the spread? i didn't see it, but it seems like an awful big stretch to pick them over Pitt

[dargonking999]

flashes of 2004 come before my eyes

[dbair1967]

I want Cleveland to finish as bad as possible, but I'll never bring myself to say "Lets go Pittsburgh!!!"

it violates one of the principal laws of being a Dallas fan

What he said.

[Yeagermeister]

I wouldn't root for Pitt if we needed them to win to get the #1 overall pick.

[DallasEast]

I wouldn't root for Pitt if we needed them to win to get the #1 overall pick.:signmast:

What he said Part Deux.

May I respectfully add Washington (who's not on the Browns' schedule) and San Francisco (who are on their schedule) to the list?

[LongSnapper]

I can live with a 4-12 Brownie record :laugh1:

[REDVOLUTION]

Let me get this straight.... you cant/wont root for another team even their win would allow you/your team to benefit...

I am big Cowboy fan... if the game doesnt directly affect me/my team and allows us to gain... then I will root for ANY team if the end result is that we gain something.

I am sure thats just me though

[Aikbach]

I hope that when Swami is in his deathbed he is trapped helplessly in his hospital room with the television stuck on a Cowboys Super Bowl tribute on his own beloved ESPN, he will be fully conscious and unable to do a damned thing about it, then once they are declared "America's Team" at the end of the film it will be the last words he hears as he fades out and into eternity.

[sago1]

As a Cowboy fan, I'll root temporarily for any team if it will help the Cowboys. Some of those teams, I'll stand up and cheer for them. Others, I'll just sit and glare.

[Sarge]

I must admit - it's damn hard rooting for picksberg.

[THEHEREAFTER]

I say we just worry about handling our own business THIS YEAR.

[Sarge]

I say we just worry about handling our own business THIS YEAR.

Oh....ok....sorry...........

[dooomsday]

Yeah, no need to root. They both stink and things will work themselves out!

[lspain1]

I must admit - it's damn hard rooting for picksberg.

Yes it's difficult...but sometimes you have to "take one for the team"....and all that. ;)

The saving grace is that you only have to root for them twice....and next week you can root for some other no-account low-rent team playing the Browns. :D

It doesn't matter, even if we get the number one over all pick, we'll trade it. I just don't see Jerry paying out #1 cash to anyone. It's the smarter play to trade it for multiple picks and have a better shot at a good pick, for a lot less money.

He is maneuvering to be in position to TAKE RunDMC.
He has got baby batter for that Razorback:D

I am sure thats just me thoughIn this case, the draft is a crap shoot. There are too many variables to consider.

What if we 'devote' a significant amount of energy into rooting against the Browns--only to see them being more successful that one or more teams and move down in the draft?

What if something happens to one of the players (i.e. McFadden, etc.) we as fans are targeting for next April's draft? Will rooting against the Browns this season defect an injury to one of the prospects we desire next year?

What if Jerry Jones offers up the Cleveland pick in trade and moves down in the draft next April? Maybe he'll be the biggest fan this season for any team playing against the Browns, but for reasons that differ from our own.

Nah. I'll let the the Browns' or any other team's future play out on its own without any rah-rah from yours truly. Fate, as always, will be what it shall be.

Go (100%) Cowboys! :)

[Star4Ever]

I've got two reasons for pulling for the Steelers. The obvious regarding the Cleveland pick and the fact that I picked them in my elimination league.

[HighTechDave]

wow, I had to really think about this situation of rooting/not rooting for a Pittsburg win. Yes, it defies the "Rule of Law" in being a Cowboys fan. Hmmmmm, let me ask you this. Would it balance it out, if I rooted for a Pittsburg win (for obvious reasons trying to get the number one pick), and at the same time rooted for their quarterback and Runningback to be knocked out for the season?

I mean, I'd get a double wammy warm and fuzzy feeling afterwards, getting what I wanted?

hmmm, pondering....

[REDVOLUTION]

Its not a crap shoot and there are no variables if you root for Pitt 2x this year and the Browns lose and go 0-16 because of it.


Its a lock.

1st pick in draft :D

I wish you would pick my Powerball numbers each week. :(

:)

[REDVOLUTION]

LOL

If you notice... my thread wasnt a prediction... it was a scenario needing to the Steelers to win both games in order to SECURE the lock for #1 pick :D


Lets go Cowboys.... man there is too much time left before the game.... I am "zoning out" here :geek:

[Beast_from_East]

It doesn't matter, even if we get the number one over all pick, we'll trade it. I just don't see Jerry paying out #1 cash to anyone. It's the smarter play to trade it for multiple picks and have a better shot at a good pick, for a lot less money.

Not going to happen my friend.

Jerry has some serious man love for D.Mac.

If we dont have the top pick, look for Jerry to trade the whole freaking draft to move up. He wants that Razorback bad.:D

[Cbz40]

I wouldn't root for Pitt if we needed them to win to get the #1 overall pick.


Neither would I.....;)

[big dog cowboy]

I can not root for a Putzburg win bit I can root for a Cle loss.

[Teague31]

TD Steelers!!! Pitt 7, Cle 0

[REDVOLUTION]

I can not root for a Putzburg win bit I can root for a Cle loss.


Psycho-ma-logic-ically that could work LOL

[Hypnotoad]

fry intercepted in the redzone. Steelers look to score again lol.

[dogunwo]

Pitt up 7-0

[peplaw06]

About to go up 2 scores in 5 minutes... CLE is abysmal...


I love it

:ohboy:

[Juke99]

THIS might be the best trade since the Herschel Walker deal.

:D

[REDVOLUTION]

THIS might be the best trade since the Herschel Walker deal.

:D

Just about impossible... but I am with ya:D

If we get RunDMC... I just hope is that gamechanging kind of RB... Mac and Barb... .WOW... thats gonna be tough to defend.

[PaulBrownsGhost]

Wow, and here I thought that Cowboys fans were some of the nicest and most respected fans in the league today. Well, this apparently proves me wrong.

[Hypnotoad]

Touchdown. 17-0!

[peplaw06]

Wow, and here I thought that Cowboys fans were some of the nicest and most respected fans in the league today. Well, this apparently proves me wrong.
:huh:

[jackrussell]

Hey, looked who just rolled over in their grave.

I don't blame ya....I've never seen 4 penalties called on one team on a single play before.

[tomson75]

Wow, and here I thought that Cowboys fans were some of the nicest and most respected fans in the league today. Well, this apparently proves me wrong.

We are.

It's just hard not getting overly excited about an early first round pick next year...and we have some holes to fill.

[InmanRoshi]

To those tempering enthusiasm by saying that the Browns weren't going to be that bad ... they're not only that bad, they're worse.

[Juke99]

Just about impossible... but I am with ya:D

If we get RunDMC... I just hope is that gamechanging kind of RB... Mac and Barb... .WOW... thats gonna be tough to defend.

i didn't think it was possible to fleece anyone anymore...but I think Jerry did it with this trade.

The Browns are a team that just looks awful.

We'll see. Obviously early.

Yeah... but put a Browns thinking cap on for a second...

in their minds they accomplished the following

1. got their franchise QB
2. have a chance to start grooming him THIS year instead of next

[Hypnotoad]

Frye pulled out!

4/10 34 and 1 int

lolol

[peplaw06]

Frye pulled out!

4/10 34 and 1 int

lololIs Brady in??? :ohboy:

[tomson75]

Frye pulled out!

4/10 34 and 1 int

lolol

Who's going in?

[BlueStar II]

It's currently 17 - 0 Steelers over the Browns, keep going Steelers.

[Avery]

I really hope this continues throughout the season.

[peplaw06]

Derek Anderson in at QB for CLE

[Achozen]

Derek Anderson in at QB for CLE
I bet Quinn starts next week.

[Hypnotoad]

The CBS announcer said Quinn might go in this game. Hes an idiot, Quinn was listed as Inactive before the game started.

[Teague31]

6 sacks already for the pitt defense. cleveland is putrid!

[hairic]

He's probably the emergency QB. There's no reason for them to not "activate" him; no gameday roster spot is lost.

[peplaw06]

He's probably the emergency QB. There's no reason for them to not "activate" him; no gameday roster spot is lost.
Isn't the emergency QB only allowed to come in if it's a true "emergency?" I wouldn't think they can just come in because the other QBs suck. :confused:

[Teague31]

You should either change the thread title or ban yourself.

the title speaks for itself. if you can't figure out what it means then i cannot help you. fyi, the browns play the bengals next week.

[Hypnotoad]

It looks like the browns are playing to injure Ben.

[Nors]

Reminds me of the giddiness of the Spears Julius Jones trade where we initially fleeced Buffalo.

Probably final grade will depend on what the QB's do in their careers.

[hairic]

Isn't the emergency QB only allowed to come in if it's a true "emergency?" I wouldn't think they can just come in because the other QBs suck. :confused:

I think they can... it's just that once the 3rd QB comes in, the other QBs can't play for the rest of the game. Which is why they're talking about 4th Q.

[burmafrd]

Why did they come up with those crazy rules about the QB? Or was it just a way for someone to save a spot on the active roster. THough I have always thought that if you have 53 players you should be able to use all of them in any one game.

[Teague31]

24-0 pittsburgh

[Juke99]

Reminds me of the giddiness of the Spears Julius Jones trade where we initially fleeced Buffalo.

There were a LOT of people who were anything BUT giddy about that trade.

[Da Hammer]

:laugh1: :D :cool: 1 loss down, 15 to go!!!

[Juke99]

:laugh1: :D :cool: 1 loss down, 15 to go!!!

I watched on DTV. The Browns were AWFUL,

[Da Hammer]

I watched on DTV. The Browns were AWFUL,
so does that mean ur predictin 0-16 as well??? :laugh1: :D

[Juke99]

so does that mean ur predictin 0-16 as well??? :laugh1: :D

Rest of the schedule..they have a shot against the Raiders..and maybe the Bills only because it's a home game.

Their schedule is BRUTAL.

I figure 2-14 at best. :D
