That's only our second lost. The only reason the steeler are ahead of us is because they didn't have a bye yet, so they have more wins they us since they played more games than us.....is it sinking in now?

Thank you. I agree, if your last part is sarcastic. As there is a lot in these cities to salivate over besides sports. Being from Pittsburgh all you ever have from outsiders is Steeler babble. As if nothing else is known from the city such as wealth of museums, cultural aspects, universities, neat historic neighborhoods, beautiful skyline, etc. It's just the Steelers. Though the locals do it to themselves. All they care about is the Steelers and always wearing Steeler garb. You would never think of going to the cultural district in Pittsburgh for a gallery crawl when you visit out of town. It is just watch the Steelers.

Pittsburghers have to realize their city has so much more than just overpaid jocks who play a game.

Oh, it's sunk in already; it just doesn't change the fact that the Steelers have five wins and the Ravens have four wins. Let's see who NFL.com and ESPN.com have listed on top in the AFC North right now...

...well golly gee willikers, whaddaya know!

Most Pittsburghers are fully aware of the cities cultural amentities. More Pittsburghers attend cultural events than sporting events. My family and I try to attend all of the gallery crawls across the city. We attend the cultural district, Lawrenceville out all night, and the Penn Avenue arts district crawls. Not a Steeler jersey in site.

I think most Pittsburghers realize what the city's cultural assets are, and many take advantage of them. It's just fun to point out that the local football team has more Lombardi Trophies than any other team in the NFL, and that Pittsburgh is the only city to win two championships in one calendar year twice in the last 50 years.

Well I sure hope the Ravens can beat the Cardinals. For your sake, you need to, considering the Steelers now hold the "common games" tiebreaker in the event of a series split. (And don't assume that playing the Steelers in Pittsburgh is an easy win either.)

Alright guys, I enjoy football as much as the next guy, but I was only using the AFCN title as an easy way to group these four cities. I think it would be great if we could compare each of the cities together on things other than football, like nightlife, parks, and transit.
