PITTSBURGH — As I listened to ex-Steelers spewing accusations over the past few days, I couldn't help but think of Hunter S. Thompson's legendary 1970s piece for Rolling Stone, a self-described "vague and vengeful screed" titled "Fear and Loathing at the Super Bowl."
In the case of these ex-Steelers, a better title might be, "Smear and Loathing at the Super Bowl." Which is not the same as saying their accusations lack merit. We'll examine that. But shots were definitely fired at the likes of Chuck Noll, Todd Haley, Bruce Arians, Ben Roethlisberger (I think), and maybe even Mike Tomlin, although it was hard to tell.
Vague? In some cases, yes.
