This just came in off the wire: Sports Tipster is awesome!
Thanks for GW, Seton Hall and some godawful soccer game I didn't even have to watch just collected my cash. Keep it up, my friend! Hell, if this keeps up, I may reconsider my opinion of the Steelers.....

[SPORTS TIPSTER]

Answer this question for me please.........

You're from Ohio, I say probably a Browns fan........
which is why I can understand why you hate the Steelers so much, especially after that amazing Wild Card comback.

But I don't understand why you have a Minnesota Viking avatar?????

I very well know Browns fans must be the most loyal in all of the NFL........so why Minny????........please explain.

I'm just curious, that's all.

It's very simple. I couldn't control where I was born. But I could control what I liked (to some extent). The first NFL game I ever saw on TV was a Browns-KC game. I was like 6 years old. The game was about as boring as you could find. My dad taught me to appreciate good "D", but this game was just awful....like 7-6.
The game after that featured the Vikings against the Redskins, and there was this QB named Fran that instead of doing like everyone else other than Staubach and eating the ball when protection broke down, he ran around and found somebody open and scored TD's and.......I still get goosebumps just remembering.
Plus the purple uniforms and the horns on the helmets and the purple people eaters....I was sold for life! Hence the Viking avatar.
I've almost gotten over my 2nd Super Bowl (loss to Steel City), but not quite. When I do, perhaps I won't hate them. Anyway, I'm trying to get over it. You'd think in my thirties I'd grow up, but not yet.
