For ***** and giggles, I logged onto my season ticket account today and noticed that prices are going up. I don't know exactly what the increase is because I had some credits last year from selling some of the games, but it appears about a 5-7% increase. I also noticed that the upper endzone seats that have always been the same price regardless of location have been split into one tier for Rows A-E and another tier for the rest.
 
Hmmm! Wonder if the product on the field will increase?
Idk I just cant seem to get excited or enthusiastic about this organization any longer.
It reminds me so much of the late 50’s and 60’s as a kid in Pittsburgh when the organization was a total joke with a total joke of an owner Art Sr.
Hired bad coaches, traded away premium draft picks, brought in old slugs from other teams, and never, ever got close to winning anything.
Same thing with Art II as grandpa. Both men just not competent owners.
I’m trying here guys but it’s difficult.

That really seems to be a stretch. We may have not won a payoff game in while but the comparing this to 50-60’s when we didn’t win anything and were the laughing stock of the league is insane. Losing seasons were the norm, we haven’t had a losing season in what, 23 years or so? Complain all you want about the playoffs, that is fair but let’s not get ridiculous.

Some smartassed little **** got some brownie points for that one........

And you hang your little hat on that one.. non losing seasons.
Non losing seasons mean next to ******* nothing. There is no value in non losing seasons. You’re never near good enough to realistically compete for what the goal should be, a championship, but you’re not bad enough to qualify for top draft picks. That’s not a good place to be,
We are now conducting business like we did in that time span with coaching hires, bad draft picks, trading away premium picks, bringing in old retread players. You keep hanging on and I’ll buy my popcorn.
This is so reminiscent of the 50’s and 60’s. I was there and remember quite well.
Non losing seasons! What a ******* joke!

AGAIN, They may not be great but they are are a hell of a lot better than the 30’s 40’s 50’s and 60’s as you are trying to compare. I am not celebrating them but you tried to compare it to the dark days of the franchise and that is absolutely a ridiculous comparison. We just made the playoffs but are sitting with 12 picks, 5 in the top 100 and top 6 in cap space. JFC people act like we are in cap hell have no draft capital and no talent. GTFOH with some of the crap.

AGAIN, wake the **** up mental midget!
Made the playoffs! Yeah right! More like backed into the playoffs because of a game ending missed FG.
The comparison with the past was never, ever about records of wins and loses, it was about how business is being conducted today.
And about 12 draft picks! It’s not about the number of picks genius, it’s all about how you use those picks. They’ve made some very questionable high draft picks that did not get a second contract.
Kenny Pickett, Najee Harris, Devin Bush (a really high pick), George Pickens, quite possibly Broderick Jones. It’s all in how you use those picks!
FA signings and trades nothing to brag about! Patrick Queen, Russell Wilson, Justin Fields, Jonnu Smith, Patrick Ramsey, DK Metcalf.
Bad extensions… TJ Watt with a horrible contract they are stuck with now.
You’re from Ohio, go support the ******* Bengals. At least they have a franchise QB.
I forgot, you’re still upset over Tomlin stepping down. He sure didn’t leave the cupboards full like he inherited them.
You’re one of the geniuses that was always in the Tomlin support circle.

Gtfoh with your doom and gloom bs. **** some of you will never be happy with anything. You got rid of Tomlin and I was fine with him leaving as he did. No crying from me over it. TJs contract is not hurting us one iota. Tomlin is gone. McCarthy hasn’t made a single move yet working with Omar and you are bitching up a ******* storm. Why don’t you wait and see how things go with an all new staff before you cry out of your mangina. I am not from Ohio. I am Burgh born and raised. You couldn’t pay me enough to cheer for another team than the Steelers. Maybe you should try it sometime.
 
I hate the offseason.

I also hate overinflated ridiculous prices from a league that is never happy with the ridiculous money they're bringing in.

It’s not doom and gloom it’s called REALITY.
Number one, Tomlin was a ******* joke who was protected for years and built exactly what? NOTHING!
Mike McCarthy alias John Candy got fired in GB because he repeatedly lost in the playoffs year after year after year. Count them, eight years of playoff losses and that’s with the great Aaron Rodgers.
Then he goes to Dallas and can’t even buy a playoff win and gets fired
That’s one of my original points that this current owner is totally clueless just like grandpa was. Hires a twice fired almost 63 year old HC who can’t win in the playoffs. Fits in does he not. Just like Magic Mike!
TJ’s contract is ridiculous. 41 million this season because he had to be paid more than two time DOY Miles Garrett. The smart move would have been let him play last year in his old contract and see how the 2025 season turned out. If he had a great season, then sign him in this off season or franchise him. Now they’re stuck with that stupid contract.
Your boy Tomlin has left the kitchen pretty dame bare. No QB, one number two WR, no LT, a ridiculously over priced and under performing defense.
You better keep in mind that everywhere McCarthy was a HC he had pretty damn good QBs.
Farve and Rodgers in GB and Dak Prescott in Dallas. Who do we have here again? Oh yeah, Will Howard who hadn’t even taken a preseason snap and Mason.
McCarthy was on staff in SF when he preferred drafting Alex Smith over Aaron Rodgers in 2005.
Yeah, he’s the QB whisperer we really needed.
No, I’m realistic and this this ******* owner has ruined what his father helped build with making a lazy hire that he thinks is a safe hire.
I remember McCarthy in Dallas and listened to all the Cowboy’s fans bitching about this guy down here in Texas.

I’m changing your name from steel hurt to butt hurt. Holy hell man. You seem to forget how long it took Dan to find a quarterback after Terry left.
