Fucking media

For those of you that saw the game (Steelers-Bengals) yesterday, y'all know that Carson Palmer is now done playing until at least July. He needs surgery on his ACL and is pretty messed up. Basically Kimo Von Oelhoefen fell on him and when Carson landed he landed just wrong. It was not a DIRTY hit. It just wasn't. Of course, I am a Steelers fan so I was not sad to see Carson go because he is a talented player, right? However, I know that Kimo did not fuck him up. If y'all watched more, you would see that he stuck around after he realized what happened and was concerned for Carson's knee. How many players do that? Um, I am gonna go with NONE. If I see one more headline with "Was it a cheap shot?" I am going to come un-fucking-glued. There are dirty hits all the time (as the next few penalties showed) that go from player to player. I really don't think Kimo fell with the intention of fucking Carson up. I mean, have y'all seen Kimo? He's a big dude. Let him fall on you once or twice and see if you aren't in a tad bit of pain.

On another note, I had to laugh when Troy threw that ball into that Bengals face. It was right after Carson was taken out of the game so the Bengals were still pretty pissed off and both teams were trading penalties right and left. I missed what exactly happened but Troy got PISSED and hummed that football right back at someone.

Anyways, my boys won and I am thrilled. Even if that means that they now have to go to Indy. That could very well be ugly.

It was so not a cheap shot.

It's painful to admit that the team you root for is a bunch of thugs, but I've watched them several times, and that's how they played. Finally they went too far and hurt someone and Steelers fans are bending over backwards to apologize or blaming it on the media. Grow up. You root for a team full of thugs.
