:09—Imagine being so great that the mere mention of your name sends 60,000 people into a frenzy. Such is the legend that is Joe Greene. Well done Pittsburgh Steelers family, Rooney’s and fans…the greatest tribute of all time to the greatest Steeler of all time.
:08—You may not know this, but Joe is not his real name. It’s a nickname given to him by his grandmother who thought the world of Joe Louis. His real name is Charles Edward Greene. But an ass kickin’ by any other name is an ass kickin’ none the less. (And you continue to wonder why you read my column huh?)
:07—To that point, if you’re wondering why the black and gold “unleashed hell” on the dirty birds, it’s because “Mean Joe” spoke to the team before the game. If “Mean Joe” tells you to get mean and nasty, you get mean and nasty or you take the chance of finding out where mean and nasty got started!!!
:06—All I wanted, for that matter, all James Harrison wanted was a chance. And man has he delivered on that opportunity. 2 sacks, 7 tackles, 5 quarterback hurries and forced fumble. I got you’re too old and you’re finished right here!
:05—I bet you can’t name not one of the wide receivers that left the Steelers in the past three years for greener pastures. And we’ll keep it that way. Hail to the new crew!
:04—This just in…Antonio Brown is the best receiver in the NFL. Period. Nuff said. End of story. Take it to the bank!!!
:03—You can all get in line behind me because I am guilty too. Yes, I wanted “Big Ben” to get going or get gone…and you wanted it too. Yes you did. Yes you did…stop lying. Yes—you—did! Well boys and girls, Big Ben got it going in a big way. Back to back six touchdown games. Never done before in NFL history.
:02—Cortez Allen who? I’m just saying. Oh shut up. You were thinking it, but you wanted me to say it. Okay, “I’ll Be Your Huckleberry” “(Tombstone”, Val Kilmer as Doc Holiday).
:01—You think Lawrence Timmons is not the MVP on defense? Take him off the field and see what happens. And by the way, the reports of Troy Polamalu’s death have been greatly exaggerated! (Where do I get this stuff?)
:00—DOUBLE OVERTIME:
