Pittsburgh Steelers Super Bowl History and Results

As we inch closer and closer to kickoff, I keep finding interesting things to post about. (At least, I think they are interesting. And like Roger Goodell recently said to Mike Tomlin, don’t forget who runs shit around here.)

This will be the first of a quick two-post series that will expand on this post and break down the Super Bowl history of the SB XLV participants. We’ll start out with the Steelers because while the Packers have more NFL championships, no one has as many Super Bowl wins as Pittsburgh.

In a few hours, we’ll be able to add the result for the Steelers’ latest Super Bowl appearance. I think it’ll be a W, but with a matchup this even, trying to predict a winner is a pretty futile endeavor.

    WHAT A GRATE HISTORY WE HAS STEELERS FANS HAVE

  • Tazzydog

    I find this very interesting what goodell said to Tomlin about who runs stuff around here and the way the Steelers got cheated on calls in the superbowl against the packers, as long as this commissioner is around we will never get our seventh ring, you couple this with the excerts from Harrison's interview in a magazine article where he stated that he wouldn't even piss on this commissioner if he was passing him on the side of the road and saw him on fire!!
    and the other thing I heard about the Steelers were going to send Harrison up and get the SB trophy from goodell and then tell him in his ear to take the 125,000 fines and shove it all adds up now!!

    The call I am referring to is when it was about 8:24 in the first quarter and it was 3rd down and Ben was on about the packer 48 and passed to TE Miller and he was grabed around the waist and I got it on CD with two officials coming down the field looking at the play and putting there hands on their flag pocket but then pulling their hands away and not flagging it!! See it is instantaneous for officials to do that when they see a violation, and then ooops, they remember I am not supposed to give anything to this team!!!!!!!! That no call really fits into the comment about who runs things around here. We had to punt and the packers scored 14pts and we only lost by 5,bignocall
