Pittsburgh Steelers to lose 3 Super Bowl trophies:

This is just a link to the article. Honestly, I was shocked. Please read the article before you read any comments.

Also, I realize "Pittsburg" is not the correct way to spell it, I lived 45 minutes outside of 'da burgh' for most of my life.

Lol, I'm well aware. I lived about 3 hours south of Cleveland, and about 45 minutes outside of Pittsburgh. However, I was still in Ohio, so we had a nice mix of Steelers and Browns fans. The "old" browns were moved/sold to Baltimore, which royally pissed off most, if not all Cleveland fans. My old neighbor was a die-hard Browns fan, and despite the rivalry between the two teams, she would rather have Pittsburgh win than Baltimore...and that's saying a lot.

Nope, you're the one who's got it wrong...

First piece of evidence is that the thing is dated "March 32nd" (regardless of it being posted two weeks ago)... March 32nd equates to April 1st...

And secondly, no, it's only related to Obama's politics because that makes it more "believable", as you get people who instantly go "yeah, sounds like something he'd do" (heck, there's one or two posters even in these comments right here who did just that)

So yes, it is most definitely intended as an April Fool's joke...

Well, the current Browns are relatively new... But the franchise goes back before any of us were born... It was simply taken out of Cleveland, and then they were given a "new" franchise to replace it...

Aside from the ridiculous tone of the article and the obvious spelling errors, any football fan will also tell you the Vince Lombardi Trophy is a traveling trophy; it moves from year to year to the home of the team who won it. The Steelers couldn't give up past trophies because it's the same trophy they've had in the past.

Well, the Browns became the Ravens somewhere around the 80's or 90's.

I'm pretty sure ESPN's editors know how to spell "losing" as well.

The Browns are "relatively new"(1999 if I remember right), so they don't get a trophy.

Ah, I see now. I was wondering because there is -no- March 32nd.

Obviously, it's unbelievable from the start, but what really sets it off are all of the typos and flat-out mistakes in the article (which is supposedly a professionally-produced piece from ESPN) I mean, they misspell Roger Goodell's name, for pete's sake! I doubt anyone officially from ESPN would ever call him Roger Gadel...lol

The usage of the word "redistribute" and the fact that the link went to a forum should have told you right away that it wasn't a legitimate article. Pay attention.
