  • A Decade of Ben

    "This is about being a Pittsburgh Steeler for as long as I can be. I love Pittsburgh," Roethlisberger said. He added that he "wanted to be like the Dan Marinos, like the John Elways, guys who played with one team their whole career."

    To all the Steelers fans... I actually have some pity for you... 

     It's not that he is bad. Actually I think he's pretty good. But damn if he's not an, uh, what's the word... an oaf. And it's kind of hard to root for an oaf.

  • Savage Bold Again

    All in all -- another exciting free agency season. Amazing too, since I don';t think anyone was expecting moves to rival last year. Savage is making inspired moves and you have to appreciate it. Go for it.

    Stallworth. I like this move quite a bit. Braylon has some spee but not the way Stallworth does, and Stallworth has skills beyond his speed. With Jurevicius winding down, a #2 WR was more important than a lot of fans seemed to be realizing. Unfortunately this means Travis Wilson is headed for the scrap heap.

    Shaun Rogers... high risk, high reward. Rogers can be a true force, and he does seem like the type of player who will benefit greatly from a change of scenery.

    Losing Bodden. This doesn't bother me so much. Nobody was a bigger fan than I a couple years ago. But since then Bodden has not inspired.

    Corey Williams. This has gotten nothing but favorable reviews, but I don't know enough about the guy to just put my faith in Savage.

    No draft picks. I'm not liking this; I think the team needs at least one first day pick just to keep the talent level high enough on the team. But it's March. We'll see what happens before the draft.
