Come and join this merry band of Steelers’ faithful for some lively debate about our Steelers, good food, music, and the merits of the odd cold beverage.
Live from Delaware, its Saturday Night! I, NAS204PSU, am here to bring you this Saturday Night Open Thread (aka SNOT).
Tonight it’s the battle of the unbeaten UCKs: bUCKeyes vs dUCKs. I’m rooting for Oregon to quack Ohio state in the nuts.
This 6 pack of questions to get the conversation going is below, also let us know what you’re eating/drinking!
- The cowboys were able to give the Steelers a loss after scoring a lead-changing TD with only 20s left. Rank our last 5 losses to Dallas in order most frustrating to least:
- Sunday’s 20-17 loss
- 11/13/16: Cowboys 35-30 Steelers: Daks first 300+yds pass game and Zeke Elliot ran 100+yds.
- 12/16/12: Big Ben throws a pick in OT, Dallas kicks a FG to win 27-24
- 8/31/97: Dallas and Troy Aikman pummel the Kordell Stewart led Steelers 37-7 on opening day.
- 1/28/96: Super Bowl XXX loss with Steelers’ Neil O’Donnell throwing two picks to give cowboys 27-17 win and another ring.
2. DAH Raiders and Aidan O’Connell look to give the Steelers their third straight loss. On paper, the Steelers should win this game and are favored to win… give me the % chance this is a “classic” Steelers-underperforming-loss-to-an-underdog …
3. These are the teams 3-2 (same rec as Steelers) heading into week 6. Tell me which of these teams the Steelers are better than:
Falcons
Ratbirds
Bills
Broncos
Bucs
Cryboys
Packers
Bears
Seahawks (already lost week 6 now 3-3)
4. George Pickens is making headlines, the wrong kind. He seems like a talented guy, but his attitude/work ethic are allegedly holding him back. Have you ever had a coworker who was smart/talented but whose attitude / work ethic made them ineffective/ the worst? Give us the deets.
5. Injuries continue to make headlines around the NFL , with many star players missing time (Tua’s concussion is probably the most notable) . What’s the most time you missed work/school due to injury/illness and what caused it?
6. Political ads are everywhere these days, and I’ve even been receiving text spam. So sick of it. I miss the good ol’ days when commercials were entertaining us between breaks. What’s one of your favorite commercials you can remember? (Having trouble remembering=>Google “best commercials of ?” And you’ll likely find a YouTube video with some highlights that will take you back down memory lane.)
