Steelers Choice

[BlitzburghRockCity]

All the arguements are valid and everyone makes great points..but they're are variables here such as how bad or not competive are we during the next 4 years... and after that is the SB fair game then ?

this is kinda fun, but damn I want that lombardi trophy back in Pittsburgh !

on that note i say we make a push for a cheap terrell owens next season. 4 million a year. after cutting c. willsons 2 million a year we are upgrading at wr for an extra 2 million. steelers are closer to winning the sb than cowboys and they are not the only team with enough veteran leadership and good coach to tame his ego and handle his antics. you thin ben would put up with him talking shit? it would also be a good reason to swithc from the run 1st philosophy everyone seems to think will never work. cutting wilson and duce would make t.o. very affordable

also too.. after the 4 years do we go back to the way we are now or are we starting over from scratch w/ a new team.

yeah im reading into this way too much but its an interesting debate !

The Ring will come in time...although the heartbreak sucks every Jan. I wouldn't trade it for the world-there's nothing like the playoffs and football in Jan! The Steelers have a winning tradition and that's what makes it so much fun to be a Steelers Fan!!!!

Given those limited options, I'll take the SB win. I tell you what it sounds, though. It sounds like you're really asking yourself if you can deal with four years of missing the playoffs, Living.

I wouldn't be surprised if YOUR team started living in THEIR past. You know, the one where YOUR guys fall back to the pack. Good thing the AFC east is the worst conference in the NFL or the Pats would be working on their first year of missing the playoffs.

You get the point. Since most Steelers fans are not the fair weather type, enduring 4 years of mediocrity will just make the next Sper Bowl runs that much more sweet.

I agree with this post. Given the choice of the 2, i'd wayyyyyy rather have the SB win. That 2 weeks leading up to the Bowl, capped off with a trophy presentation, followed by months of celebration really would make up for the 4 years of mediocrity we'd face IMO.

i'll take the for sure super bowl.....cause if you're going to the playoffs year after year and not winning it, it's like not going to the playoffs for 4 years anyway, so give me that one for the thumb and i'll be satisfied for the rest of my life cause well i've never witnessed us win shit only on espn classic

[BlitzburghRockCity]

Can you imagine the celebration in down town Pittsburgh after the super bowl win !! It'd be like nothing the city has ever seen !!!!

[Prosdo]

Wow, it would be amazing. Pittsburgh is hungry for another one and to win it the city would go all out!
