NFL Playoff Time - at least for the Ravens

Playoff Tickets

A man goes to the Pittsburgh Steeler ticket office and inquires about purchasing play-off tickets. The ticket teller replies that there weren't any tickets for sale because the Steelers did not make it to the play-offs.

The following day the same man goes to the Pittsburgh Steeler ticket office and inquires about purchasing Steeler play-off tickets. The ticket teller politely replies that there weren't any tickets for sale because, "the Steelers did not make it to the play-offs."

This goes on for an entire week. The man goes to the Steeler ticket office inquiring about play-off tickets and the teller says none are for sale "because the Steelers did not make it to the play-offs."

Another week of this goes by and the man still is asking the ticket teller about Steeler play-off tickets. Finally the ticket teller in a loud voice says, "I'VE TOLD YOU FOR THE LAST 2 WEEKS THERE WERE NOT ANY TICKETS AVAILABLE BECAUSE THE STEELERS DID NOT MAKE THE PLAY-OFFS."

The man replied, "I know. I drive all the way from Baltimore just to hear you say that!"

This of course was posted for the reading pleasure of Stine. Although it could also apply to Redskin and Giants fans (if the story was modified), but I wouldn't want everyone to hate me. So read and enjoy Stine!

Who wants to make a road trip to New York? Oops, I mean New Jersey. (Feel free to hate me.)

I just hope that Matt Stover doesn't kick the game winning field goal in the last seconds of next week's game!

Oops, I didn't check the blog recently. If you wanted a big response Whitey you probably should have picked a different team. 2008/2009 was a good 'burgh year so I considered this year to be a freebie. Maybe the Steelers will use the better draft picks on some cornerbacks.
