They have always been terrible, when was the last time you saw them used in OU?

Stealth Rock on Nidoqueen is something that I'll include, thanks. Sheer Force is 'somewhat' bad because a) it supposedly got nerfed and b) Nidoqueen is a defensive pokemon and doesn't make good use of it.

Edit: Actually, Husky does bring up a good point regarding EV investment. I do like a 30% chance to poison Terrakion (yes, it is actually that big of a deal) and Tyranitar, but even if it gives only a slight boost to Flamethrower or whatever, it might be enough to score a KO on a weakened Ferrothorn etc.
