Nick, thanks for the response. I go back a long time with the Steelers .... lived in Akron, Ohio for 20 years and saw the intense rivalry with the Browns. Now it's fun to see the Steeler/Ravens games. Now in Richmond, Va., retired and a big Ravens fan. I grew up in the Balt area and follow the Orioles also. The Steelers continue to be a great team but we got you so far this year but it could change with a loss in the playoffs. Good luck Sunday against the Bengals.

Derrel,

Good points all. I did leave out that I felt the Baltimore side of the coin was screwed by the officials too. I have a lot of respect for Lewis, but I would also call Harrison and Ward dirty players by the same measure as I give him. I'm not even meaning it as a bad term, really. Dirty players are what makes defense so fun to watch.

I saw an excellent ESPN show on the Baltimore band. I love that band. I wish the Steelers would bring something similar, actually I wish everyone would in the NFL. It makes football so much more authentic and vintage...
