Eddie's Bio

I love the Pittsburgh Steelers and would defend them with my life. I actually love all things Pittsburgh.
If you are a Ravens fan, I probably won't like you.
If you are a Bengals fan, I probably will laugh at you.
Browns fan, both of us will probably laugh at you.

70% of the world is covered by water, the other 30% is covered by Troy Polamalu.

"It is better to keep your mouth shut and let people think you're stupid, than to open it and remove all doubt." -somebody

"Stupid Should Hurt"- a very wise man

The NY Yankees and the media are trying to manipulate you.

Yankee propaganda must be exposed as lies and crushed before it can spread any further.

What up everyone? I wrote an article about the changes here on B/R over the last couple of months, and about some of the things that we used to have, that we don't anymore. If you could, check it out.

As I have said in the past, many times, I am not on here for AOTD votes, but I believe that if enough of you give me your AOTD vote, then maybe the higher ups will bring back some of the things that are gone.

Thanks a bunch, I really appreciate it.

Much has been written about the Steelers, the 1970s, and their use of steroids. The current public perception is the Steelers began and glamorized the use of roids in the 70s. Read my article to find out who one man, with 4 NFL teams, spread the use of steroids throughout the NFL, beginning in 1963, and see just how pervasive roid usage was by the time the Steelers began their decade of dominance.
