SCB Steelers Quick Hitters: The “Terrible Curse” Edition

Good Thursday to you Steelers fans.

Whenever the Tennessee Titans appear on the schedule you can guarantee someone will bring up the “Curse of the Terrible Towel.” Despite the fact that the creator of the Towel, Myron Cope swearing the Towel wasn’t really about curses or anything like that, it’s been hard to not acknowledge some things. In 2008, the Titans put a pretty good 31-14 whipping on the Steelers. As the game neared the end, Titans’ running back LenDale White (along with LB Keith Bullock) got hold of a Terrible Towel on the sidelines, threw it down and started to stomp on it with his cleats.
