Anyone want to explain why Hines Ward feels the need to question the desire of his quarterback to play while injured when it wasn’t even the QB’s decision?
Well, kept Bob Costas from asking about that dirty player thing, didn’t it?
Hines implication is that Ben should have lied about his headaches andfogginess or whatever he said. Hines is an idiot for those comments.
Imho, it’s obvious:
6-0 when Troy plays.
0-5 when he’s out or injured.
Special Teams ace Anthony Madison is a Steeler again today after being released by the Colts. The team released Corey Ivy to make room for him. I like this signing a lot. The team has to win out the schedule to make the playoffs I think. The way they have been playing they don’t deserve to make it and can’t be expected to perform well if they do but there’s time to turn things around.
This is a good move in that direction.
That Ravens rematch is looming large, and you should have both Ben and Popadapoulis back for that one.
So I guess we can have the mods close this one now, eh?
Yeeek! :eek:
Don’t say that! The last time the Bengals won the division, the Steelers got the wildcard and…well, you know.
Its like saying “V_l_e_o_t” from Harry Potter. It just isn’t done.
Oooh, oooh… it’s violet, isn’t it? Violet!
Yeesh. Bengals fans. Always with the Harry Potter…
As a Bengal fan, I’m quite happy to invoke magic. Or any other supernatural help. It’s not like we’ve won the damn thing on our own merits yet. 
Haha, whatever works!
This just in. Hines Ward’s comments questioning Big Ben’s decision not to lie to doctors so he could play wasn’t really Ward’s fault, it was all Rodney Harrison’s fault. Glad good ole Hines could clear that up for us.
When is Troy due back? I did a cursory look at their web site, but it didn’t pop out at me.
They haven’t discussed Troy’s knee officially much but supposedly he’s doing quite well on it but they’re holding him out of a lot of practice anyway. Sounds like they want him 100% for the stretch run but feel they can beat Oakland without him.
I heard 3-4 weeks, so next week at the earliest.
Well I would like to believe that we will win today - but I wanted to believe that against KC a few weeks back…
Still, we should beat Oakland.
Go Steelers!
Yes, they should beat Oakland. And yet they’re behind.
This is getting old.
Another 4th quarter lead lost.
It’s so easy to blame the defense, but today, the O only scored 10 points through 3 quarters.
So they make a big play as soon as I post that. I should jinx them more often.
Oh, and Mendenhall, in spite of the fact that he just scored with a spin move, is going to get killed if he keeps doing that. Someone is going to absolutely level him right in the spinal column one of these days. He needs to stop doing that so regularly.
