You're failing to see for the trees, my man. But fine. Person A isn't wrong, he's just a fool for calling out another team when the same thing he's complaining about applies to his team (whether he's able to see it or not). Happy? :lol:

Well.....one of us doesn't get it.

You're assuming he doesn't know his team has dirty players on it. That doesn't mean he's not allowed to talk about how dirty Pittsburgh is.

Yeah, evidently you don't. Here's a bit of news for you--one of Cincinnati's players threw such a cheap shot in the game this past weekend that he was recently suspended for the first three(!) games of next season. So, you know, there's no assumption on my part at all--anyone who is interested enough in pro football to take to a message board to post about it certainly is interested enough to know when one of the most high-profile players on his team has been suspended for three games.

That doesn't mean he's not allowed to talk about how dirty Pittsburgh is.

I'm not sure how allows these things and who doesn't, which is why I never said someone isn't allowed to talk about how dirty Pittsburgh is (had you bothered to actually read my posts which you seem to be so interested in). I said it's foolish. And I stand by that.

Ok, but under your assumption, the said fan is a huge hypocrite. Because bemoaning some other team for the same [Mark May] your team does is pathetic and hypocritical.

They aren't a hypocrite until they comment on their own team.

How are you people not getting this? Pittsburgh is a dirty team. That statement is either true or false. Whether it's true or false is not determined by the fandom of the person who makes the statement. The person making the statement can be fully aware that his team is or isn't dirty. It doesn't change the veracity of the statement.

Complaining about the speck in someone else's eye while ignoring the log in your own is hypocritical.

:smash:

Where was it said that anybody is ignoring anything?

edit: Here's what the statement says: "Pittsburgh is a dirty team."
Here's what you're reading for some reason: "Pittsburgh is a dirty team and mine isn't."

You're adding the last part.

A person can't comment on Pittsburgh being dirty if they're a Bengals fan, but they can if they're a Jacksonville fan? That's nonsensical.

Yes generally folks who have a problem don't typically go around complaining about other people with that same problem because it makes them look like tools. Apparently you don't see it that way. I'm not sure, but I think that makes you a Tool. :)
