Not content with simply outplaying the Pittsburgh Steelers, Tennessee Titans LenDale White and Keith Bulluck ground a Terrible Towel into the turf with their cleats after Steeler's QB Ben Roethlisberger was intercepted a second time, this for a touchdown. It's a gesture Steeler fans see from many opponents who, lacking the intelligence to celebrate a win graciously, resort to cheap, cowardly theatrics to make a point.
But here's something the little Titans should have thought of. Buy a real Terrible Towel! It's my understanding that NFL players make decent money, but apparently Bulluck and White are strapped for cash as they were desecrating a bootleg knock-off not endorsed by the Steeler organization or the NFL as evidenced by the lack of logos. Hell, it didn't even have the real Terrible Towel logo on it. Are they miserly or just stupid?
My money's on the latter. If they had the least bit of intelligence, they'd remember the last time a player did this, another classless has-been, TJ Houshmandzadeh. TJ desecrated a Terrible Towel in a regular season meeting between the Bengals and Steelers a few years ago and in the post-season rematch, the Steelers broke the Bengals spirit, Quarterback and Superbowl hopes and went on to win the Superbowl in Detroit.
So enjoy your fifteen minutes of infamy Lenny and Keith. I hope you own comfortable couches, you'll be spending five hours on them come February first!

Oh boo hoo. Your team got spanked, get over it.
Yes, I covered that in the first sentenced, admitting we were outplayed. That's not the issue. the issue is about people who are too stupid to realize the classlessness of their actions. Like stomping on a towel or making anonymous comments. I suppose somw people are just 'brought up wrong.'
Thanks for commenting!
This isn't the first time Bullock acted this way. He is a classless individual and cast a dangerous omen on the Titans organization if they see the Steelers in the playoffs. LenDale White should lose twenty pounds and get a new haircut.
James Harrison will tear their ACL's with his teeth in January. We won't need Kimo to help this time.
Oops! I would have preferred seeing the Steelers knock out the Titans, but my prediction remains incredibly accurate: White and Bulluck will be sitting at home watching the Superbowl. Boo-Hoo. But look on the bright side - they have all those nice, new Titan Towels to cry in!
Enjoy your time off Tennessee, you earned it!
Well, here we go again…
LenDale White promises to stomp another towel in tonights' NFL opener. Good luck with that. It's nice to know that he's more concerned with showy theatrics than game fundamentals.
I certainly hope no-one releases his hotel and room number to the fans.
