Steelers to lose Super Bowl Trophies

Pittsburgh, PA.

The Super Bowl XLIII Champion Pittsburgh Steelers, the only
team to win six titles, will soon be losing half of those trophies. After a
meeting between NFL Commissioner Rodger Gadel and President Barack Hussein Obama, Obama decided to redistribute half of their Steeler Super Bowl victories and trophies to less fortunate teams in the league.

“We live everyday in the country that invented the Super Bowl.” said Obama “We are not about to lose this Great American tradition in the wake of these difficult times.” Obama’s plan calls for the Steelers, who are a successful NFL team, to give half of their Super Bowl trophies to teams that are not successful or have not been as successful as the Steelers. “The Detroit Lions are just as much a part of the same fiber of the NFL as the Steelers and they should, no rather will, be entitled to a Super Bowl Trophy as well.” Obama explains in his plan that he has imposed on Godel and the NFL.

The Pittsburgh Steelers, who by virtue of hard work, excellent team play,
stellar draft choices, responsible investing of free agents, careful hiring of coaches and excellent community service and commitment to their fans, has prospered greatly during the past 30 years and have won six Super Bowl Trophies. But President Barack Hussein Obama’s plan calls for the Pittsburgh Steelers to carry the larger burden of the NFL’s less successful teams. Obama went on to further proclaim, “In these difficult times we are all in this to work together. We must reclaim the NFL Championship Dream for every team, for everycity and for every fan.”

“My plan will not affect 31 of the 32 teams in the league.” Obama assures. That’s over 95 percent of the teams in the NFL will not have to worry about losing any Super Bowl Trophies. “The worst teams in the NFL and the teams that can’t seem to get a break and win a championship will no longer have to worry about going without a title.” Obama promises. “We are a country and league of hope. We all need to make a change. It does not matter the color of the teams uniforms, the personal decisions that the teams make or their performance but rather if they are a member of this great American league.”

The Super Bowl XLIII trophy will be redistributed to the 0-16 Detroit Lions. Through no fault of their own incompetence, the Lions could not manage a victory all season and this trophy will help ease the pain of their lack of performance and give them hope once again. The redistribution of Super Bowl XL trophy will go directly to the Steeler’s division rival the Cincinnati Bengals. The Bengals who also have fallen on hard times have never won a Super Bowl. This victory will bring a smile to hundreds of Bengal fans all over the world as they can now celebrate. Finally, one of the Steeler’s two Super Bowl victories over
the Dallas Cowboys will go back to the Cowboys since the league needs to provide hope in the face of difficulty and provide hope in the face of uncertainty. This is a heavy burden for the Steelers but together we can all prosper.

All hope is not lost for Pittsburgh fans; Barack Hussein Obama has another plan in place. Obama has met with MLB and commissioner Bud Selig on a similar plan. The New York Yankees will redistribute two of their World Series trophies to the Pittsburgh Pirates as a supplement to their losing 16 straight seasons and counting. This plan will help stimulate the Pirates and enable them to regain the American Dream. Barack Hussein Obama will be meeting with the NHL and Michael Phelps in the upcoming weeks as this issue is high on his agenda for “Hope and Change.”

Couldn't resist, Hope you have a Happy Day...

Rockbilly,

I read this on another forum and immediately thought of poor Dale.

But it's only fair that those less fortunate teams be given an equal shake.

Actually, the post makes an excellent analogy to the way BO's plan is shaping up.

Holy crap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am sure glad it turned out to be a joke. When I read the headline I thought how could that be.

It is a good analogy of what the new prez is up to. Dale

rockbilly thanks. I made a point to print 2 coppies. I gave one to my wife who is a big Steeler fan. I told her when I gave it to her look what your new prez is doing to our Steelers. I gave the other to my neighbor who holds season tickets for the Steelers and he got a good laugh out of it. Dale

I think Obama should do this & then walk the streets of Pittsburg without the Secret Service to explain why he made the decision.

Problem solved!!

Yea he should. He would not make it far. Even the people that voted for him would turn on him. Dale

Just remember, they're all winners. There are no losers. At least that's what they tell the kids when they get a trophy for last place.

Heck, maybe we should just put up the championship to the best essay on why my team is the most underprivilidged and deserves the championship. We can let BHO read them all and decide.

It could start out somethimg like this "Dear BHO, savior and messiah, for you are all knowing and all seeing."

Come on Skunk, love to get on my firearm sites for fun and partake of others successes and fail attempts, making their firearms perform to their best?
It BS when I see articles spewing out in the last couple of months which are misleading and harmful at best?
Take a look what going on at the "President Obama joke" topic....very scary! One of my UCLA shooting friends whom I sent GBO link found the topic and called me and ask if I was sending a "Hate Link"?

You know what they say if you can't take a joke.

This thread was pretty much started to have some fun with me. I have no problem with it and I find it rather funny. Dale

Understanding that this tale is political satire, when I hold your example of The Pittsburg Steelers and the NFL up against the model of corporate America, your analogy doesn't work.

Companies and executives cut in the stamp of Enron, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Bear & Stearns, Citibank, and Bernie Madoff are not organizations that have achieved their wealth and success as a result of virtuous hard work, excellent team play,
stellar recruitment, responsible positioning of management, careful hiring of executives and excellent community service and commitment to their customers, but by lobbying government, manipulation of legislation, by lying to their investors, and harvesting ill-gotten gains from the pockets of millions working class people, thereby stealing the future from those people and their children in the process.

No, the comparison of professional entertainers to corporate America doesn't really stand up.

As a final reflection; for all of their hard work and sharpness of business accumen, for all of the blood sweat and tears and millions of dollars invested, what does the NFL really produce that benefits anyone?

Nothing.

So there's really nothing to compare the NFL to the average American, either.

Thanks for clarifying that this "Pot-bellied stove" forum should confine itself to success and fail stories and discussions about making firearms work better - and also be more attentive to the delicate sensibilities of Californians.

Yeah, how intellectually bankrupt to spoof about the redistribution of wealth in today's liberal-socialist environment - especially on a forum dubbed "Round the Ole Pot Bellied Stove". This topic should be moved to the "Advanced logic, perfect analogy, Sensibilities kind, and Humor neutral" forum.

FWiedner · « **Reply #18 on:** March 22, 2009, 09:08:16 AM »

So what you're saying is that only a person of higher intellectual insight and a superior ability to understand political humor, such as yourself, should bother to venture an opinion in an open forum?

billy_56081 · « **Reply #19 on:** March 22, 2009, 10:34:14 AM »

NOW NOW! If we all don't bow down to Kalifornication of our humor, as our socialist friends here want us to believe. We shall all be called "haters" and be considered divirsitially challenged. ALL will be sent to cultural diversity goolags.

So I would ask what do "UCLA shooting friends" shoot for firearms? I would imagine they only shoot politically correct guns, and of very small caliber as the wrists on those folks are probably very weak.
