A friend of mine *just* sent me this article! He keeps telling me to be prepared to live in a city full of angry people should he not be able to play next year. (I'm moving to Pittsburgh in July)

A bunch of my friends go to U of Pitt, and there was a huge riot near their building when the Steelers won the Super Bowl last February. (They live in Oakland, of course.)

whos the black guy you're talking about??
roethlisberger happens to be the starting qb for the superbowl champs.. im guessing the black guy isn't a big star since when did the media give equal attention? if roethlisberger happened to be a backup qb, he wouldn't have got much attention either |

I can't find anything about that, probably wasn't as severe.

im no football buff, but i do know who roethlisberger is..
on the other hand, i've never heard of Derome Mattis.. the media will give attention to things they think the people will care about.. in this case, roethlisberger happens to be a bigshot quarterback for the defending superbowl champs.. and just who exactly is Derome Mattis?? We don't know and frankly don't care -_- sorry but thats just how life is.. |
