You're not a fan if you think going into a game they're going to lose?
Correct.
That seems to be the theme today.
How is anybody a Pirates fan then?
They haven't won a playoff series since 1979.
How does anybody root for them?
How does anybody root for Pitt?
Very carefully.
They haven't won a national championship since 1976.
So if you think your team's going to lose, you're not a fan?
No.
This is what they've done to me.
Win a playoff game more recently than the Browns, Bengals, or Ravens in your own division.
Win a playoff game more recently than like 23 other NFL teams and I would be more bullish.
I've said they have a chance.
I've said they could win.
I said I think this game will be closer than the last six in terms of not just the optics or cosmetics of what the final score looks like.
They lost last year's game to Baltimore 28-14.
It wasn't even that close.
They lost even more disrespectfully than by two touchdowns.
