Is the Curse Broken? LenDale White and Keith Bulluck Try to Make Amends

December 21, 2008: After defeating the Pittsburgh Steelers for the top seed in the 2009 AFC Playoffs, LenDale White and Keith Bulluck disrespected the Steelers' signature Terrible Towel. Since that fateful day (including the last game of the 2008 regular season, one playoff game, and six games so far this year), the Titans have come apart, not winning a single game. 

Three weeks ago, I wrote an article stating that the reason the Titans have yet to win a game this year was because of the curse of the Terrible Towel . Turns out, the Titans may be realizing the error of their ways.

According to WTAE-TV , the ABC affiliate in Pittsburgh, LenDale White and Keith Bulluck have decided to make amends with not only Steeler fans, but with the man that most believe hold the power of the curse, Myron Cope.

White and Bulluck have sent one of the beloved Terrible Towels to the Allegheny Valley School, the school for handicapped children that owns the patent to the Terrible Towel, autographed by both men, with a note asking to have the curse released.

White made sure to say "This is not an apology," and added that he would not apologize unless he played for the Steelers. "I'll probably never apologize unless I'm playing with the Steelers one day..."

The Towel is going to be auctioned off for the school.

Two key points in this are, was this enough to satisfy the curse and will the Titans losing ways now stop?

And why would White mention one day playing with the Steelers? There was speculation that the Steelers were going to draft White in the 2006 NFL Draft. Instead, they traded up in round one to take Santonio Holmes, only the second time in Steelers history they traded up in the first round to take a player (Troy Polamalu-2003).

White lasted until the 13th pick of the second round, when he was selected by the Tennessee Titans.

The Steelers have since drafted a running back in the first round, 2007 - Rashard Mendenhall, so there may not be a need for White, but could White be interested in joining the Steelers? It certainly seems so, but at this point, would Steeler Nation welcome him?
