    even though I'm a boomer I used to love the washington redskins fun bunch celebrations. I thought it was truly hilarious. Not sure anyone here would remember those. I always thought John Riggins would have made a great Steeler

    Being a boomer is not the insult younger people think it is. After all, who taught them/their parents how to use a spoon (hopefully)
    I would have liked to see Riggins and Czonka as Steelers!

    I might not know the extant of it, but from what I grasp neither Chase nor JUJu are "divas".

    Now Antonio Brown was a diva. Special rules for him, helicopter entrance to practice, etc.. all the money nmand fame got to his head and imo he didn't know how to handle it.

    This could happen with the two former pending a big 2nd contract however

    Chase Claypool is a treasure to have on this team but stupid people trying to stir the pot will probably chase him away.

    I think Chase is a dynamic talent.

    It could be harder for him with more than likely Juju being gone, I think you see him get doubled more, with more over the top help on him.

    As far as the diva stuff, get used to it, your going to be dealing with this with just about every young football player coming out. Do the want to win sure, do they want to make as much of endorsements absolutely, and you get that money by being well known, and social media is that platform.

    Well that’s good because I wasn’t talking to you, it was directed at Labriola and Dulac. It’s also not really an insult, just a way of pointing out older people are out of touch with the younger generation.

    That’s literally every NFL team that does that.

    Kind of hard to act like a diva when you only have 1344 yards in 3 seasons.

    Every NFL team celebrates after they get stuffed on a fake punt? I can only think of one...

    True, my young'uns, nieces and nephews have taught me that over the years. Sometimes the hard way but I got it.

    Ah, all I saw was a gif of a player signaling first down that the other poster commented on. Easy mistake.

    since I'm a boomer it was directed at me. I am not out of touch with the younger generation. I have a son and I consider our relationship as a good one as does he. Usually if I'm offended I just let it go and move on. You have the right to offend me all you want. For some reason your comment stuck in my craw. Maybe I'm just sick of the way people tend to group everyone into a certain group for criticism. So I guess I'll just do what boomers normally do, move on with my life and forget it.

    He might be!

    I have no patience for it, I see it on social media every day, everyone running around with their hair on fire about something, always offended.

    like i said. when I'm offended I usually just move on. But again your comment labeling a whole generation of good folks as somehow less knowledgeable than you rubbed me the wrong way. I've already said you can offend me all you want. If that's your goal have at it. I don't care. I was just letting you know that there are those that are boomers that are quite proud of the benefit we've been to society and don't deserve that kind of criticism. But you go right ahead and do whatever you want

    And I already told you I wasn’t talking to you.

    You remind me of the guys that when a woman says “I hate when guys (insert example)” and without fail a guy jumps into the conversation and says “not all guys, I don’t do that” Great, then she wasn’t talking about you was she.

    Next time Ill just use a gif but I don’t know, some people might find it offensive.

    Not when they don’t have a first down! I didn’t mean the gesture itself
