Re: Terrible towel curse?
I knew there was a good reason behind this

Would love to hear Woodley's response now.

Re: Terrible towel curse?
I guess Woodley would be really pissed at me then. At the last home game I was in front of the grill and someone threw me a terrible towel and we put it on a grill brush on a 4 foot handle and I lit it on fire. The 100+ people standing around me really seemed to enjoy it. It didn't seem to bother the Ravens karma. They scored 55 that day and beat the Steelers the next week...

Re: Terrible towel curse?
Calvin johnson is playing shit this year.
Does his below usual high standards qualify him for a madden curse?

I knew he either had a fan throw it at him or he got it under "good" circumstances. Ray Rice is too nice of a guy to be an asshole with their piss towel.

This is the same guy who said we can't beat them last year and look what happend. He's a complete idiot. Plain and simple. He's the one who should be sorry when he comes to our turf.

I guess the curse was lifted before Housh caught the game winner against the Stillers.

Curses don't work on believers and Ray is a believer.

"Never apologize, mister. It's a sign of weakness."
John Wayne as Captain Nathan Brittles in She Wore a Yellow Ribbon.
Especially when:
1) You did nothing wrong, and
2) you are discussing a dish rag.
These stealer fans are complete and utter idiots, thinking some yellow dish rag is to be treated like a holy relic. Just another exmple of the arrogance of a front running, band wagon fan base.Last edited by ed from Bel Air; 11-22-2012 at 01:06 AM.

This is an actual post on PFT. I think I can actually hear nickster31 breathing through his mouth.

For those of you that don’t know, the Towel, which was created by the late Myron Cope, is owned by Allegheny Valley School, and the proceeds go to supporting the 1,000+ students who are either mentally challenged or have a physical defect.
To disgrace the Towel is more than simply disgracing the Steelers, but to slap in the face of those kids.
Reality is, when people disrespect the Towel, BAD things happen to them. In more cases than mentioned above, other teams have disrespected and paid the price as well.
Rice will see. This IS going to be bad for him.Last edited by CRZA938; 11-22-2012 at 07:30 AM.

Re: Terrible towel curse?
Jamie Dukes chimes in. Insightful as always.
“History shows that when you disrespect the towel, bad luck comes your way,” analyst Jamie Dukes said in this video that reviews the history of the Terrible Towel curse.

Re: Terrible towel curse?
and yet, if some OTHER team decides to wave a towel around, "It's a Steeler thing!" Can't have it both ways...either it's a towel to raise money for that and anyone can do it without getting shit, or it's a Steeler thing and dragging it through the mud just shits on the Steelers.
In any case, he wasn't disrespecting it, he traded his gloves with a fan for their towel. What does THAT say about how their fan views their towel, eh?.

Re: Terrible towel curse?
Some guys lit one on fire on the steps near my seats 2 years ago. Pussy Yinzers (to whom the towel did not even belong in the first place) texted it into the M&T "help-my-sorry-ass" line, but then chickened out when it came time to i.d. the arsonists. But Lord the toxic black polyester smoke that jizz rag pumped out was beyond pollution!!
