I'll be watching a game with my in-laws, and if there's a questionable call on Baltimore, they are all up in arms, but if there is a questionable call on Pittsburgh, they applaud the refs. I'm sure they feel the same way about how I look at things I’m going to have to agree, and I see it far more now that I’m in Baltimore.

Whenever I hear fans (Pittsburgh fans mostly, not because they do it more than other fans, but because I live here) complain about all that stuff, I always say, "What if it happened to your team?" Case in point, the 2005 NFL playoffs when the Steeler's defense tore Carson Palmer's ACL on their way to a Super Bowl victory. Cincinatti cried, "DIRTY HIT!" Steelers fans said, "FUCK YOU, IT WAS CLEAN!" But what if that same hit was reversed, and had happened to Big Ben? Then what kind of hit was it? We bitch when our team gets whistle blown, and ignore when the whistle gets swallowed. Awesome post, and I couldn’t agree more.
