October 21, 200817 yr The hit on Rivers was nasty. You would have thought the Ward played LB instead of WR:lol:
October 21, 200817 yr I have never seen so many people celebrate a young man (with a promising future) getting his jaw broke. That's why Bengal fans are upset, and it just HAD to be the Steelers to do it. Just like with Palmer. Clean/Dirty/legal/illegal-who cares? The team/squad are vulnerable, and losing their first round pick (probably one of two good picks the team has made the last decade) getting his jaw broke, then getting blown out, then falling to 0-7 is hard to take. It's even harder to take when the guy gets up and does an uncoordinated dance like he ALWAYS does. I ain't gonna lie, I can't wait until the day I see him get it...legal and not dirty of course. You know, I've sat and read this drivel about Hines and Rivers and the hit and not said a whole lot, but give me a flippin' break. I haven't seen anyone celebrate Rivers getting his jaw broken. Please quote me the post of that nature. You can't, because there's not one. I hate that he has to be out the entire season, and I can't speak for all the Steeler fans on this board, but I'd venture a guess that they'd say the same thing. It's very unfortunate to say the least not only for the Bengals, but especially Rivers. The fans have said it was an incredible block and that's all. You and others have said it was dirty. Your disdain for Hines Ward is obvious, we get it. But to say some are celebrating his injury is ludicrous.

I'm a Steelers fan and I would still say it was a good block if that was Polomalu with his jaw broken. This is tackle football and that's part of the game. Everyone on that field has a "kill or be killed" attitude - or at least they should.

October 21, 200817 yr He's broken up over this latest issue I'm sure. He reads on here and I feel his pain. To think that Bengal nation is calling for his bodily injury. I feel your pain 86. You keep your head up. Just don't use the crown of your helmet when keeping your head up.

The majority of Bengal fans haven't said anything, other than a few who said they cannot wait to see Ward get hit (legally).

I read a lot of cheap, helmet to helmet, fine and suspension talk in that thread.

And not everyone said legally. Up to speed?

October 21, 200817 yr Hey, I admitted I don't like Hines Ward. That just made it that much worse. I can also admit that I'm being a sore loser... What do you expect. We, in the village, have nothing better to complain or talk about.
October 21, 200817 yr That hit is indicative of the difference of the Steelers and the Bengals. Bengals had more players willing to do their job like Ward does and not just look for attention for himself and less players like Johnson who won't throw a block to spring a teammate and the Bengals would win like the Steelers do.
