This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

He wasn't canned because he couldn't run an offense by steelhop
In a sport filled with raging assholes, he stood out as a huge asshole. He was also fired for off field reasons. The final nail in the coffin was him breaking his hip after getting in a fight on NYE. The Rooney's were done dealing with his crap.
It was stellar but had mind numbingly bad decisions. I knew the Steelers were in trouble the minute he opened up the 1st offensive series in empty backfield. I turned to my friend and said "didn't he learn anything from the last meeting."
