not true, Baltimore teams have been in 3 super bowls, they won twice and lost once

the Colts lost famously to Namath's Jets in SB III in 1969
and won in SB V over the Cowboys (thanks from a Steelers fan) in 1971

The Raven won in SB XXXV in 2001.
the Browns (pre-Baltimore) never went.

Since championships are won by franchises and not by cities, the Ravens/Browns franchise has been in EXACTLY ONE Super Bowl and won it. at least you have a good winning percentage

the Steeler have won 5 and have lost 1, so 5-1

not really a close contest in that department

So now the Greatest Game Ever Played doesn't count because somebody came up with a Super Bowl name later? That's ridiculous. I happen to believe that Tech's early national championships matter even though they weren't "BCS" championships.

In your own statement, you say "Baltimore teams". Did the St. Louis "Hawks" ever win any NBA championships? So according to you the Atlanta Hawks can claim those?

i was going with all of the variations; first i counted all of the ones that were played in or won by teams of Baltimore, then i broke it down amonst the two franchises, the one that used to be there and the one that is there now.

i only looked super bowls, so i probably didnt count any before they called it that, you are right, they probably should be counted also; so that is three wins in 4 attempts for Baltimore teams, but they are not the same franchise. that franchise that went 3 times and won two moved out of town to Indianapolis.

i think the Hawks would be able to claim those titles, just like the Raiders claim all their superbowls (not LA or Oakland) and the Colts count the one that they won and the Ravens dont count that one (has nothing to do with the city, just the team). i think that is pretty clear and consistent among all sports
 
Baltimore won the NFL Championship in 58, 59, 68, 71, 2001. Pittsburgh has won the NFL Championship five times also.

yes, but the COLTS franchise is in Indianapolis.

the RAVENS franchise has one Super Bowl win under that name, and 4 NFL championships as the Browns

that is your team, you cannot claim ANY Colts wins for the Ravens. the BALTIMORE thing is irrelevant. only TEAMS win championships, not cities

On the first day of school a first grade teacher explains to her class that she is a Steelers fan. She asks her students to raise their hands if they, too, are Steelers fans. Wanting to impress their teacher, everyone in the
class raises their hand except one little girl. The teacher looks at the girl with surprise and asks "Janie, why didn't you raise your hand?"

"Because I'm not a Steelers fan," she replied.

The teacher was shocked. "Well, if you are not a Steelers fan, then who are you a fan of?"

"I am a Ravens fan," Janie replied.

The teacher could not believe her ears. "Janie, please tell us why you are a Ravens fan."

"Because my mom is a Ravens fan and my dad is Ravens fan, so I'm a Ravens fan too!''

"Well," said the teacher in a obviously annoyed tone, "that is no reason for you to be a Ravens fan. You don't have to be just like your parents all of the time. What if your mom was an idiot and your dad was a moron, what
would you be then?"

"Then," Janie said, "I'd be a Steelers fan."

-------

A Redskins fan, an Eagles fan, a Ravens fan and a Steelers fan are climbing a mountain and arguing about who loves his team more. The Redskins fan insists he is the most loyal. "This is for the Redskins!" he yells, and jumps off the side of the mountain.

Not to be outdone, the Eagles fan shouts, "This is for the Eagles!" and throws himself off the mountain.

The Ravens fan is next to profess his love for his team. He yells,"This is for everyone!" and pushes the Steelers fan off the mountain.

----------

A Ravens fan liked to amuse himself by scaring every Steelers fan he saw strutting down the street in an obnoxious Black & Gold shirt. He would swerve his van as if to hit them then swerve back just missing them.

One day while driving along, he saw a priest. He thought he would do a good deed, so he pulled over and asked the priest, "Where are you going, Father?"

"I'm going to give Mass at St. Francis church about two miles down the road," replied the priest.

"Climb in, Father. I'll give you a lift!"

The priest climbed into the passenger seat, and they continued down the road. Suddenly, the driver saw a Steelers fan walking down the road and instinctively swerved as if to hit him. But, as usual, he swerved back onto the road just in time. Even though he was certain that he had missed the guy, he still heard a loud THUD. Not knowing where the noise came from, he glanced in his mirrors but still didn't see anything. He then remembered the priest, and he turned to the priest and said, "Sorry Father, I almost hit that Steelers fan."

"That's OK," replied the priest "I got him with the door."

YOU are the one who used the term "Baltimore teams". You can't back down now and change things just to make yourself happy. Pitts has won championships with TWO Different teams basically (5 total). Baltimore has won championships with THREE different teams (5 total). Who's the dynasty?

Johnny U and Baltimore made the NFL what it is today on TV. Pitts didn't even have TV's back then.

"Who Dey? We Dey. Who Dey? We Dey," Cowher screamed, in apparent retaliation of the Bengals shining their cleats with Terrible Towels as they walked off Heinz Field with a win the month before.
 
Good Luck Dey! It seems Pitts has all the advantages going in, so it'd be one heck of a good upset. Bring on the cold weather baby.

No whining here on Monday please.

good luck to you guys - if you pull it off you deserved it, b/c as you say you have a ton of guys out. its really too bad, i would have liked to see them go head to head with all weapons available - offensive and defensive ones!

no whining, i promise, but then again i think the stillers will pull it out

Amen, brother. It would be a good one.

And as far as Hines Ward is concerned, former dawg or not...he plays the game like it's meant to be played, with all his energy and heart. And he comes up smiling after every play, not because he's cocky, but because he's so damned happy to be playing the game.
 
Oh my God, dirty Steelers.

Congrats Buzz Czar, we just didn't have the horses to keep with y'all tonight. You're a fine team and program.

But you're team is still dirty. Check the replays and see five head to head hits.
 
When have you heard me complain about the AJC? Also, I'm not a steelers fan as I had a run in with Rothles****ter at Jim Kelly's golf tourney. He's an asswipe in my book and will always be.

But when Phil keeps saying that baltimore has pittsburgh right where they want them like 4 times it get's kinda of old. Whether you believe it or not they were biased towards the ravens tonight. That's alright because praying Ray gets to stay at home and watch the big game again this year.

Mid, it's not a dig at you but just can't stand the ravens.

I understand. Fans don't like good teams. I hated the Bills when they were decent too.

It's not about the AJC. It's about hearing what you want to hear. When you're biased you just aren't going to like what you hear 50% of the time.
 
By the way, in fairness to the announcers, Baltimore had no chance in that game but they made a big deal about "Pittsburgh playing without Hines Ward" over and over again. Baltimore lost Chris McCallister, Samari Rolle, Dawan Landry, then Frank Walker tonight (all DB's). They had 10 players out or at 70% but you never heard it.

Congrats to the Ravens for an incredible season considering everything that has gone on. The Ravens have a very young OL, young QB and quite a few stars on defense. It will likely be the Ravens and Steelers playing post season a lot coming up.
