    Myron Cope dies

    If you get a chance, pick up Myron's autobiography called Double Yoi. It is truly a piece of Pittsburgh sports history showing how sports were, and should be covered. Myron had access in bars, clubs, resteraunts to the great players of the 70's when there wasn't a fear of exposing or looking for weekness (ala ESPN, NFL network). RIP Myron.

    Steelers Fans

    Tomlin stated they are in a position to take the best player available. The O-line is a big concern, but O-line is probably the deepest position in this years draft, so if there is a run, I do not see them going O-line in the 1st round. Going out on a limb, Kentwan Balmer DT/DE out of NCU.

    Ben back at practice

    http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/07348/841716-66.stm although thinking about Bulger in the dome.

    Kevin Jones

    I just dealt KJ for Big Ben straight up. My other qbs were Bulger, and Warner, and my backs are R. Bush, B. Jacobs, and S. Jax, I also have Fargas and Fred T. on the bench. I upgraded at qb, and still have rb depth on the bench.

    your thoughts on this trade?

    NO! LJ is a monster in the second half of the year, as is a healthy Harrison. Gore, Portis are an injury waiting to happen, and holt has a poor o-line and a banged up qb throwing the ball

    Do I start Brees vs ATL or

    i stay with hass. This could turn into a shootout, Bulger is coming back healthy and has a history of big games against Seattle, I see both teams in the 30's.

    tough call

    do you start edge vs a tough redskin run d, who has allowed only 1 rushing touchdown this year, or lamont jordan who is playing in some pain against an average kansas city run d,

    John Clayton

    perfect sports nerd, i remember reading his coverage of the steelers when the pittsburgh press was in circulation,

    What happened to Galloway yesterday?

    sorry, it's my fault... I started him.

    Drew Brees vs. Philip Rivers

    Hold on to Breese, NO bye week is perfect timing for Peyton to turn the O around, see how he looks weeks 5-7 before losing him now.

    Kitna and sack points

    I'm in a league where your qb loses 1 point per sack, and it is a stat that you take into consideration when drafting a qb. Yes kitna will get chewed up by the bears D, i would anticipate a min of 5 for the game. -2 per sack is absurd, even worse is changing the rule after the draft=bush league.
  12. really like r. brown against an awful jets run d. Sitting edge against the ravens at the flex and playing plexico in a ppr league.

    Trade Help

    make the trade, without depth at rb your season will be over. You also get another starter in chambers, who is an upgrade over bennett and furrey. V jack has great potential, but he will be sharing the ball with gates, and tomlinson.

    word on t. jones

    I completed my first draft of the season yesterday about noon and was thrilled to get T. Jones with the 8th pick of the third round. This morning i hear he went down with a non contact lower leg injury? WTF any word?

    Name Your "Anti-Sleepers"?

    Pittsburgh had resigned verron haynes, davenpoop, and brought in barlow. Reports out of mini-camps is davenpoop is 15 pounds lighter and looking good in the new system, Ariens pittsburgh's oc, stated he wants to keep his backs fresh. They lost ol guru russ grimm, and the best guard in the game is stating he will not report to volentary workouts, and has asked to be shopped around for a trade. The center position is up in the air with longtime back-up chucky okobi as the front runner. haynes will be the third down back, i can see davenpoop getting 10 carries a game, he was productive last year when fwp was hurt, and knows the system better this year than last, and possibly barlow getting 5 carries a game. Too many unknowns for me.

    Name Your "Anti-Sleepers"?

    FWP will go too high, with the loss of a pro-bowl center, hardings, and potentially no Faneca, a new regime, and more touches to go around, i believe FWP drops out of the first two rounds. T. Henry, huge upside, possible bust of a first round pick, too many unknowns with the rat. Edge, whisenhunt and grimm are being viewed as saviors to the running game. I'll have to see it to believe it. C. Taylor, the writing is on the wall, possibly the best pure football player in the draft was the teams first pick. His carries are cut in half.

    Walter Thomas

    Carlton Hasselrig, was drafted late by the Steelers in the early 90's out of Pitt Johnston. He was a national champion wrestler, and a problem child. He made the probowl as a left guard despite not playing any college football. I think he is currently doing time somewhere.

    RB Help! Wk 13

    rudi johnson should be effective against the ravens, weatherman is calling for heavy rain tonight in cinci, there is no c. perry coming in on 3rd downs, i can see rudi getting 20-25 carries tonight.
  21. beefalo

    Ahman Green

    I'm starting him in front of c. taylor. jets give up big rushing numbers.
  22. beefalo

    Rudi for t. jones straight up.

    Rudi tends to explode towards the end of the year, i would hold onto him, Benson will start to get more carries, keep rudi.
  23. beefalo

    who would you start?

    Ahmant green vs Thomas Jones. Both have good matchups. I'm a little concerned about green's health.

    Trade for Edge

  25. I have Roy williams and lee evans on a bye week, my other starting wr is h. ward, no other receivers, so i would have to take a 0 if i don't make the trade, i have no other waiver wire moves. My starting backs are r. brown and chester taylor and i have t. jones starting this week for brown, i have addai and rhodes on the bench. i would like to keep addai in case of an injury to a starter or if jones loses carries to benson, i was offered j. horn and maurice jones drew for both the indi backs. What to do.
