Imagine the frenzy if Texas teams had won the Super Bowl, NBA championship,
NHL championship and World Series, or any combination of those.

The HATRED would be intolerable.

Fortunately, we, at DU, don't have that happening tonight with Pittsburgh.

Thank you.

:hi:

3. Actually, it would be really tame compared to a Texas team winning
a championship. The HATRED oozed out of this forum towards anything Texas.

13. No kidding
Remember the widespread glee when their training camp was hit by a freak storm & several people were seriously injured? People here actually laughed at that. Sick fucks.

6. Oh, I have plenty of hatred for the Penguins, but it's all because of one player.
There are only so many ways I can say how much I hate Sidney Crosby before even I get bored with my own posts.

7. who can hate Pittsburghers?
A city of hardworking blue collar folks who have had some really hard times and over time we have learned to adapt.

Pittsburgh has been voted most livable and the folks here are very very nice.

8. Considering my folks retired to a nice community north of Pittsburgh
I have no hate towards Pittsburgh (I don't hate any city, either)
