  5. Plexico == GNAA Founder? by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    OK, that was off topic, but I'm going to reply anon anyway.

    Go Steelers! You have a ton of fans in Tennessee and we all have terrible towels. Give us a reason to wave the damned things for once. Cowher plus Roethlisberger makes for an interesting combination...

    Also, Plexico's name should win some sort of GNAA award, don't you think?
