The Official "Get Jerome A Ring" Bandwagon

[Irish Envy]

Okay, so my team is out of the playoffs (Chicago Bears) and while I don't really care for the Steelers, I do believe Jerome is as classy as they come.

If you'd like to see Jerome get that ring, in his hometown and then ride off into the sunset... or South Bend to mentor Aldridge, Schwap and Schmidt, lets hear ye!

Sorry. I'm a Bengals fan. I just can't do it. I'm happy for the Bus. He's had a great career-he's easily a hall of famer. But can't pull for the Steelers. Bettis never got a NC ring at ND and it doesn't tarnish him. He'll be OK without the superbowl ring.

I am hoping he comes home to ND football when all is said and done. If nothing else, he can start a bowling team. I hear he's quit the bowler.

Giants fan here. Yeah i thought the same thing Svoboda. As long as my team is out, i decided to root for the steelers for my boy bettis. "The wheels on the bus go round and round." I was praying to god that his career would'nt end on that fumble on the goaline. Thank god for kickers!!

 

[AlbuquerqueIrishFan]

I'm a Broncos fan, so unless the Steelers get past Denver, I won't be rooting for him. Now, if Denver loses, then I'll be supporting the Bus!

...go round and round...and you're the guy under the bus...

scooper is a pooper scooper

Panthers fan here....I will pull for the Steelers if Seattle wins on Sunday. Hmm, that's no good, Pitt-Denver game is first. No matter, I'll still pull for Pitt over the Broncos as well as Seattle in the SB if it comes to that.

Can't do it. I love the Bengals to much and I hate Big Ben to much to see him win anything.

 

[BGIF]

Jump on the Bus!

 

[kjkb34]

Heck yeah. The Bus is a class act.

First of all they are the Bungles - Yoi and double yoi - and secondly I know it's easy to hate Big Ben because he's going to be kicking the Bungles @ss for the next ten years, but from everything I know about him he's stand up guy not worthy of hatred. Hate Polamalu, his hair is too long and he's a USC grad.

I do hate Polamalu, too. But first of all, Ben won't be kicking the bengals @ss if CP gets healthy. And secondly, I am near where Ben is from and everyone up here talks him up. Thats why I am sick of him.

The Bungles dissapeared three years ago. You'll win some. You'll lose some. And you know it.

Actually, living in Cincy, I know quite a few Miami alumni who have stories and eye witness accounts of what an arrogant person Ben actually is.

Lets Go Steelers!
I can't think of anyone who deserves a ring more than Jerome, Represents the Steelers/the NFL/ND admirably. Jake the Snake and the Broncos can get there next year, this is destiny my friends.

The drive for 5! 1975,76,79,80,??

[Óglaigh_na_hÉireann]

Yea, I've been working that angle for a while now. Since the Browns can't get shit done on the field, I turn to supporting the alumni (or alumnae?.. eh who cares?)

Did anyone hear about how Jerome Bettis' fumble led to some Steelers fan having a heart-attack and almost dying? Damn.. I mean, if they lost, Bettis would have two things on his conscience: 1) He lost them the chance at a super bowl & 2) He indirectly killed a man.

lol, well, at least neither ended up happening.

The bus is going to give Lynch the ride of his life this weekend, Go Pitt!

Props for Jerome and I hope he gets a ring...

 

[wahoo]

As a lifelong Browns fan, there is no way I'd ever root for the Squeelers. I cheer for 2 teams...the Browns and whoever the is playing the Squeelers. The only possible exception to that is the Dirty Birds(Ravens)

 

[guff]

One win away

 

[KMac151993]

A fitting tribute to truely a great back. He gets to return home for his final game of his career in the biggest game of his career.

 

[jiggafini19]

I hope the Steelers win. What a way to go out...Super Bowl in your home town. Classic.

Sugar Bowl against the Visor...my favorite ND Bus memory ever.

 

[TexasDomer]

I'm not much of a Steeler fan, but enough of a Bettis fan to root for them against the Seahawks.

 

[irish4life99]

While I'm a Hoosier, and a Colts fan and was crushed, not nearly as bad as the Fiesta, I would have hated to see Jerome go out on a fumble to lose the game and most likely end his career. So now I would love to see him get the Super Bowl Bling in his home town of Detroit. That would be a helluva send off.

I may even cheer if the Steelers win!

 

[kmoose]

I'm lucky enough to be both an Irish fan, AND a Steeler fan.

The thing about Bettis getting the ring is this...........

IF he gets the ring, I think he is a lock for first ballot HOF. He'll get in, even without one, but maybe not first ballot without the ring.

I may even be persuaded to go back home, to Canton, to see his induction.

 

[irish4life99]

Here's a nice page showing Bettis getting off the plane in Detroit. Looks like his Jersey is being worn by few Steelers.

how can ya not pull for the Bus? I don't care if you ARE a Browns fan. It's the greater good!

I don't know how admirable it is to yell, stomp and talk trash after every single run. I hate his after run antics. Way over the top. He acts like he just ran an 80 yarder to the house. More like an 8 yarder. I'm all for intensity, but that's too much. Other than that, I love the guy.

As a Browns fan, I cannot agree more. Jerome is a great part of ND past and he is the ONLY reason I will pull for the Steelers this weekend.
