The terrible towel is already in his helmet.

But lol @ the fat guy who bought a bumblebee prison jersey, those must sell like hotcakes haha.

[EricH]

Yes, they wore them twice this year= 2 losses.

Pretty sure the Pittsburgh Steelers won their first game wearing those 1934 throwbacks (against the Washington Redskins?).

Anyways, kinda off-topic, but, I'm not going to lie: Those retro, 1960s jerseys for the Steelers, with the yellow helmet, are actually pretty classic and sweet. Basically, what I'm trying to say is that it would have been easier to watch the game, last night, if Pittsburgh wore those uniforms, instead of that bumblebee/Charlie Brown kit...

Funny, retro jerseys for the Ravens would be going back to the Rebok.

If even; the overall design has remained untouched, since 1996. Well, other than the change of the logo on the helmet, chest and sleeves...

My mistake, they did win.

I knew it was only a matter of time before this would come up. Steelers [url="http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/11/20/ray-rices-terrible-towel-usage-upsets-lamarr-woodley/"]crying[/url] about Ray Rice having the flag. The comments on that story are hilarious!

[A Fish Called Yanda]

I coudn't find the picture of Ray w/ the towel in that slideshow for some reason. Here it is:

Woodley saying this will bring Rice bad luck. Houshmanzaada and white did this and there both gone now.

I guess when you look as bad as the Steelers have lately, all you have left is to hope for a little bit of voodoo.

[Moderator 3]

Wow, way more anti-Steeler comments that pro ones. I guess everyone hates the Steelers and those stupid yellow rags. :-)

[Moderator 2]

League wide ! Who likes the dishrag waved in your face at a game?

[ravensgirl20]

That is the exact point! I don't care if it suddenly became cool (GOD forbid) to wave a purple towel around M&T...who wants that in the way of watching a game. It is an annoying distraction. As far as Ray having the towel-don't throw it at him you bunch of clowns and it won't be on his head. It is like a child throwing their ball at another child and then screaming at them for having it. Grow the heck up!! And for the record I'm not scared of your pee colored towel. Wasn't it Jimmy Smith who jumped on one after a win last year?

[rlh445]

Yea, some inbred hillbilly threw that at Rice, so he waved it back at them kind of like Boldin pointing at the scoreboard last week against the Raiders. Hey Woodley, TJ sure had bad luck when he grabbed the game winning TD at your house huh? Voodoo, schmoodoo. LenWhale White was on his way out of the NFL and into many buffet lines before the 'Terrible' (team) Towel incident anyway. Pfft. When we beat you in a couple of weeks, don't blame your dishrags.

For those of you that don’t know, the Towel, which was created by the late Myron Cope, is owned by Allegheny Valley School, and the proceeds go to supporting the 1,000+ students who are either mentally challenged or have a physical defect.
To disgrace the Towel is more than simply disgracing the Steelers, but to slap in the face of those kids.
Reality is, when people disrespect the Towel, BAD things happen to them. In more cases than mentioned above, other teams have disrespected and paid the price as well.
Rice will see. This IS going to be bad for him.[/quote]

Hello there sir. Tell me, is the sky blue and the grass green in YOUR OWN LITTLE WORLD ?

[SecretAgentMan]

A conversation with my father about the Uni's that they wore

Me: Look at those, they are soooo @#$%&*(% ugly
Dad: I would ground you.... But if you speak the truth well.... Yep

[SecretAgentMan]

Anyway...... Woodley prob stuck that in his helmet... Isn't it illegal to use magic in the NFL? (See Peyton Manning, and Roethlisberger)
Huh

Ha, Dophins started waving a white towel in the 50's or 60's anyway. Steelers didnt start it by any means!

Naw the first time they wore those I think it confused RG3 because that was his worse game and the whole team looked flat that day, the Prison uniforms must have messed up their minds
