With the Pittsburgh Steelers visiting the Tennessee Titans on Sunday, the memory of the Titans' 2008 disrespecting of the Terrible Towels has come back into view.
Several Titans players stomped on the towels -- a favorite emblem of Steelers fans -- as Tennessee defeated Pittsburgh in a regular-season game in late 2008.
And Steelers WR Hines Ward said Wednesday that incident has not been forgotten.

This again? I thought we were over this.
The three perpetrators are no longer on the Titans, in case you haven't noticed, Hines.
The curse did it's job. Focus on catching passes for Dixon this Sunday.
Agreed. It happened years ago, and those guys are gone.
Get over it.
If you wish to live wisely, ignore sayings............ including this one.
I say whatever fires you up - go for it.
Plus, the curse hasn't addressed the issue at their house where the incident happened. Perhaps it's not finished with them yet.
If you need someone stomping on your silly towel two years ago to fire you up, maybe you need a better coach.

If a professional athlete needs a coach to fire him up, then he's got issues.
Please.... many things can give you that extra boost. It's whining about which of those things that is "worthy" that is silly, not the towel stomping.
Read the full article, TROLL. here's the last paragraph. It IS disrespectful to the Steelers and their fans, not that you would care. You just like to stir shit up. This little article is just trying to make something out of nothing. Read the Hines Ward conference call thread, where the material for this supposed article comes from.
Will Ward and his teammates be mindful of the disrespect when they meet on Sunday?
"It doesn't matter," Ward said. "It is a disrespect to us, but we don't play for somebody stepping on a towel or not."
ooooh. Aren't we touchy today!
You'll feel better after that first cupa coffee.

Hey whatever works is fine with me, it was disrespectful to this organization and the fans and we still want revenge!
Missing you every day, thinking about the memories every moment, loving you every second Mom ♥ R.I.P. 1951-2011
"When you go out on the field and you're intense for 60 minutes, some guys don't want to do it. When I line up across from him, he has to do one of two things, he has to raise his level of play, or he's going to get his *** kicked all day"
- Greg Lloyd
I don't buy Ward's supposed "anger"... he's just grabbing a headline for shits and giggles, nothing more...
Yea. Never "really" got payback. Yea we won the last game... BUT THEY PUT TROY OUT AND COST US THE PLAYOFFS !! This ain't over...
by putting it out there again, it makes the Titans have it on their mind as well. And Guess what WONT happen this season regardless of the outcome of the game, I would bet not a single Titan has a Terrible Towel on the sideline to Stomp On. Why? if its just a silly towel? Because folks, the Curse is Real. Go ask TJ Houshamama and the Bengals and Carson Palmer's Knee if its not real.
Don't see any Patriots doing that do you? No, just stupid loud mouthed never wons trying to show "swagga" getting punched right in the face with the Curse of the Terrible Towel.
If it wasn't real the two jerks responsible for it wouldn't have sent a signed towel and letter of forgiveness to the charity in the Burgh last season would they have?
SuperBowl Wins - How many does YOUR team have? Steelers 6, 49ers 5, Cowboys 5, Packers 4, Giants 4, Pats 4, Redskins 3, Raiders 3, Broncos 2, Dolphins 2, Colts 2, Ravens 2, Bears 1, Jets 1, Bucs 1, Rams 1, Chiefs 1, Saints 1, Hawks 1

We don't need the motivation...it just gives us more satisfaction when we kick their asses into next month. I hate when other fans come up with lame lines like that.
Give him a break, if anyone knows about better coaches, it's a Browns fan - they play against one 16 times a year.
Correction. We know all about crappy coaches. We're just hoping Holmgren can reverse the trend next year.

Concerning the "terrible towel" curse
Listen carefully to the words.

Just an FYI: Like your sig, but it's Marshmallows.
I know. I wondered how long it would take for someone to say something about it. (But I think I'll leave it like it is, anyway)

You can say it isnt real or whatever you want stomping on the terrible towel is like a steelers fan sitting in the dog pound and then pissing on the seats

Reverse the trend of what, Cleveland sucking at every sport. Like this picture:Correction. We know all about crappy coaches. We're just hoping Holmgren can reverse the trend next year.

If your team goes 5-11...misses the playoffs for the 7th year in a row...gets dismantled in the off season...and is one of only 4 teams that has never even PLAYED in a Super Bowl.....
You might want to think about getting one of those "silly towels"....as well as a new head coach.
...just sayin'
"I believe the game is designed to reward the ones who hit the hardest. If you can't take it, you shouldn't play"
-- Jack Lambert --
While I think it's a little silly of Hines to drag out this towel issue, a Browns fan has real gonads criticizing a player for getting fired up over "silly towels" and poor coaching.
It's especially funny when said fan of said team haven't finished ahead of latter team in over twenty years. 20 years, people.
The Browns don't believe in towels, or showers either.

All this did was fuel the fire. Now Titans fans everywhere are trying to find shamwows to destroy at the game- and if the Titans win, oh... it'll rain dookie-stained yellow towels.
No one but Steelers fans respect a yellow piece of cloth. No one else believes in a curse from a yellow piece of cloth.
So... what curse was it that plagued the Steelers for the rest of that season and the next? Seems odd that the curse apparently doesn't know who the good-guys are, doesn't it?
The curse that plagued the Steelers the rest of that season was WINNING THE SUPER BOWL.
But then again, I wouldn't expect a Titans fan with verbal diarrhea to remember that, considering that they couldn't get past the Ravens in the second round and lost 8 consecutive games after that incident.
You are officially dismissed.
Oh... right. And then it's not as if Troy P has been hurt since, or your qb has been in trouble for raping people, or Santonio Holmes has gotten in anything.
Hmm... yeah, doesn't exactly seem like a blessed thing. My guess is, Ben probably just forced himself on a few females to avoid seeing Jason Jones again.
And yeah- you'd better thank the Ravens. That's for certain.
