With Cecil Fielder celebrating like a fool, the Milwaukee crowd giving standing ovations every time a Brewers player gets a hit and that silly mascot sliding down the slide after every bomb they hit off a beleagured Joe Beimel, you would like to think the Pirates would show some pride, play angry and get some […]

The Steelers sent a strong message to their in-house cornerbacks with their selection in the 4th Round of the 2011 NFL Draft: the competition for jobs in the secondary will be on in training camp.

Coming into the 2011 draft, most Steelers fans would agree that the team's needs were, in order, CB, OL, DL.

It's time for the 2011 edition of: "Pittsburgh Steelers Free Agent Signings That Never Ever Would Happen But Let's Speculate Anyway" Of course, with the NFL Lock-Mess monster soon to appear, there won't be any signings across the league for months.

Media Day jumped the shark years ago in terms of producing actually interesting quotes. But, here were a few that stood out to me from Packers guys after way too much time spent listening and reading to the 2011 version: PACKERS TE ANDREW QUARLESS (on the game plan for Sunday) "There are a couple of […]

Steelers Jets II

Here are some of my early thoughts on the Steelers-Jets rematch after re-watching their Week 15 meeting: The Jets were on edge coming into the previous matchup.
