this year playoff run: All of these are from a fuzzy memory..... 1. Troy told CBS.... back in 2005 it was 'us vs. the World'....this year is ..we dont care about the other teams. sorry no quote....just what CBS said. 2. Starks before the winning SB drive.... 'We were made (or built) for this' 3. Holmes 'Time to be great.....dare to be great' 4.. Forget the context and quote....but the line from Hines about how teams are worried 'about little ol me' ' I only weigh 185 lbs' |

quoting bleedsteel:
'THAT`ll cool yer A S S off!!!' The one and only, I think it was after he slammed the Cryboy that dared to pat our kicker on the head.
It was actually after #58 hit Tony Dorsett early in SB XIII. |

Polamalu Quotes: They're taking the physical nature of the game out of the game, Polamalu said. 'It loses so much of its essence, and it really becomes like a pansy game,' the Steelers' Pro Bowl strong safety said. 'I think regarding the evolution of football, it's becoming more and more flag football, two-hand touch. We've really lost the essence of what real American football is about. I think it's probably all about money. They're not really concerned about safety.' 'Legacies are something you kind of worry about after the season,' Steelers All-Pro safety Troy Polamalu said. 'If you really want to be a great defense, you have to win the big games, the important ones, because people don't really remember great defenses that don't win championships,' Polamalu said. 'I didn't mean being cheap, but (those who) don't take anything from anybody,' Polamalu said. 'Know what I mean? Joe Greene wouldn't take anything from anybody. Joey Porter wouldn't. When people came to our field, they knew this was our home... 'It's arguably the best franchise in sports. To do it the way the Rooney family has done it, to have the support in Pittsburgh. It's not a big market, it's not like the Dallas Cowboys where you get a lot of press like that,' Polamalu said.... 'The Steelers give Pittsburgh a lot of hope,' safety Troy Polamalu said. 'When we lose, the depression is so thick you can swallow it. They ride the emotional roller coaster the same way we do.' ''I was just running for my life,'' Polamalu said. 'I do it for all the bald men over 40,' Polamalu said with a laugh. 'I'm just another Steeler. Like anyone else,' Polamalu said, dismissively. Troy answered, 'I would say I'm a Pittsburgh guy, yeah. I live in Pittsburgh. I scrape snow off just like everyone else. I've had a Primanti sandwich. I'm a part of Pittsburgh. I get mad when the Pirates don't win, when the Pens don't win.' |

Jim Obrien, a quote In his book 'Lambert, and other men in the middle' from Tom Landry. They were at the HOF banquet, and Lambert was standing alone in the middle of the room. In another area, (bad word)Butkus was also standing alone: 'Look at them. Nobody likes them and they don't like anybody else. They don't even like each other.' L. C Greenwood before an AFC championship game was watching a TV monitor of the early NFC Championship game while waiting to play Oakland. Al Davis walked by and asked LC what he was watching. LC said 'Looking to see who we will play in the Superbowl'. |

quoting CanadianSteel:
'I am very aggressive and very physical. On the field I guess I am just plain mean.' Jack Lambert.
'If I could start my life all over again, I would be a professional football player, and you (bad word) well better believe I would be a Pittsburgh Steeler.' Jack Lambert, 1990 HoF Introduction. My Favorite.
Sorry, didn't see that post. It still gives me chills when I watch it.

quoting ELASTEEL:
A quote in a" Best Ever Super Bowl Teams",from NFL Films,I think it was Harry Kalas,about Super Bowl xiv "Great Teams aren't always Great,They're only Great when they have to be"
That would be our Steelers, playing down and losing to teams we should stomp all over the field. |

Dorsett's first official carry in the NFL was in a home game in Pittsburgh. Lambert hammered him after a short gain. Dorsett got up all (bad word)y and tossed the ball like he was cool. Then he passed out and fell over on the field and had to be helped off. Welcome to the NFL. |
