The feeling is mutual. While I've seen film from the early 70's, etc......my personal memories only go as far back as the mid-80's. I couldn't stand Eric Metcalf. "Swivel Hips" used to kill the Steelers. Kosar, Brennan, Clay Matthews, Webster Slaughter, Kevin Mack, Earnest Byner etc. Those are my early memories of the Browns. Good ole Louis Lipps, Mark Malone then Bubby Brister, Tim "Fumble" Worley, Dwight Stone "hands," Walter Abercrombie, etc. for the Steelers. I'd definitely shoot the shit with ya'. Second round is on me.BR1986FB wrote:That's why I've developed a respect for thavoice.

It's funny how the Steelers thread has to deal with someone trolling who isn't even a Browns fan (don't think there have been ANY Browns fans trolling that thread) and WE have to deal with YOU.
The self respecting Steeler fans (Ewok, Non, thavoice and LJ, who is new to me since I joined this site) come over here to talk FOOTBALL. Yes, I'm sure there's a hatred toward the Browns from them, just like most on this thread hate the Steelers, but you don't see THEM acting like daycare got out early and gave them access to a computer and a message board.
I fucking HATE the Browns and everything else Cleveland just like you guys hate the Steelers and everything Pittsburgh. However, I don't feel the need to go trolling on threads to piss people off and be an annoyance. Sure, I'll occasionally take part in some friendly banter, help get the facts straight and may even defend the Steelers when I see fit but starting shit just for the sake of pissing people off is not my M.O. It's pointless. I know they hate the Steelers and they know I hate the Browns. We don't need to go out of our way to constantly remind each other or prove that to one another. Many of us, on both sides, can be fairly objective when talking about the hated rival. I don't understand why that is so difficult for people or what is so fun about being an ass to people on here when you're not provoked.
You and Non have always been respectful Steeler posters and although I've seen you get your ire up, at the end of the day you're still respectful, intelligent posters. You don't hop in the Chatter Cleveland Browns thread "swimming pool", drop a Tootsie Roll and then move on like others do.
Like I said before, I'd sit down next to you in the bar, buy you a Leinenkugel's and talk football all night. I've seen many a Browns/Steelers battle since the early 70's.
