Jeff Fisher didn’t see any of his Titans stomping their feet on Terrible Towels after beating the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Seeing the footage Monday didn’t make him happy.

“This was just a couple guys playing around with a towel. It was unnecessary in my opinion,” Fisher said.

Linebacker Keith Bulluck dropped a towel, then swiped his foot across it celebrating the Titans’ 31-14 rout of the Steelers on Sunday. He wasn’t alone. Running back LenDale White stomped on a towel, and defensive end Jevon Kearse used one as he pretended to blow his nose in actions replayed in video highlights over and over.

Fisher defended his players, saying the Terrible Towel is just a towel to the Titans.

“They don’t understand the significance or the meaning of the towel itself to the organization, the Steelers history or the Steelers fans,” he said. “On one hand, I think they were having fun and just playing with a towel. It was certainly not a shot at the organization or the players or the staff or the fans.”
Oh, must I call BS on that.  I thought it was pretty clearly taunting/gloating.

Very clear. They knew exactly what message they were sending.  Like stepping on the star in Dallas.

Does this mean that the Steelers will now trade for White and Bulluck?
