Guys and Gals,

A one man effort worked for SuperBowl XXX, but it's gonna take a team effort to make this work for the dynasty.

Post all the articles, videos, pics, commentary you can find or create in this thread.

Our collective efforts will yield results.....

That is one of my favorite Steelers pictures ever I think...I just like how he's all crowded and everything is all dark but his jersey is bright and centered and big. He's ascending into the sea of gold towels (and media people). I don't know, I get goosebumps seeing that pic again. Good one stanz...

Notice the little girl is having Kemo sign a Polamalu jersey.

Perhaps she got her Samoans confused.

Or maybe she thought Troy really let himself go while training in California in the offseason.

She might be a girl scout and therefore thought that he ate too many of these Samoans:

I'm telling you guys, James Harrison is gonna win Mr Congeniality before long.

Harrison said. "It's talk, just something that gets y'all stories. One the game starts, we don't like each other. Once the game ends, we shake hands, we respect one another. Inside those 60 minutes, anything goes."

I even notice he's one of the guys that lets up right away after the whistle.

If you watch him, he truly has respect for his competitors and this game.

We think of him as this stone cold killer, but he's quietly taking on the personality of Tomlin/Lebeau.

He's coming of age.

And it really isn't being noticed.

Could some professional writer do a piece called "James Harrison is a nice guy"?

Let's win for the Smitty family!!!!!

http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/08349/935071-87.stm

More than 70,000 people will scream vile things at the Steelers today when they play the Baltimore Ravens at M&T Bank Stadium. But to defensive end Aaron Smith, it will be like elevator music compared to the screams from his young son when doctors began poking his tiny body with needles to do their spinal taps, bone marrow tests and blood transfusions.

"Daddy, make them stop! It hurts so bad! Please make them stop! Don't let them do that to me ..."

"They tell me he's so young that he won't remember any of it," Smith said the other day at Steelers headquarters. "But his mom and dad will remember it the rest of their lives."

Smith's son, Elijah, who turned 5 Dec. 6, was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia -- a cancer of the white blood cells -- a few days before the Steelers played the New York Giants Oct. 26. The disease has an 80 percent survival rate, the doctors told Smith and his wife, Jaimie. They are encouraged about Elijah because he has responded well to once-a-week chemotherapy treatments and his follow-up blood tests have been good.

"We feel blessed," said Smith, a man of faith. "We will come out of this and be a stronger family, and my son will be a stronger person."

Smith had much different thoughts on that horrible Tuesday when doctors delivered the news. One minute, he was sitting at Children's Hospital thinking they were going to give his son medication for his high fever and send the family home. The next minute, he was told an oncologist would be in soon to speak with them.

"I don't know what you guys know about leukemia ..."

"I swear at that moment I wanted to vomit on the floor," Smith said. "I didn't know anything about leukemia. I just knew it was something bad. It was a death sentence as far as I knew."

Smith called what followed "the craziest three days of my life." He was excused from Steelers practice by coach Mike Tomlin and stayed at the hospital around-the-clock, leaving only to get food. While his son went through those awful tests and had surgery to implant a port line under his skin for his treatments, he went through the normal stages of denial, anger and depression, asking himself time and again, "Why not me instead of my son?" As he put it, "I would switch in a heartbeat with him. Any parent would jump on that hand grenade."

That's not how life works, though.

"I kept asking, 'Could it just be a virus?' " Smith said. "One of his doctors said, 'It's not a question of if he has leukemia. It's what kind.' "

It wasn't until Friday before the Giants game that the Smiths learned Elijah had the more common form -- the more easily curable form. And it wasn't until Sunday morning -- only hours before the game -- that Smith decided to play because he knew his teammates were counting on him.

Tomlin had visited Smith at the hospital Wednesday and told him to take as much time as he needed for his son and his family. The Smiths also have three daughters -- Elliana, 6; Elysia, 2; and Emilia, 6 1/2 months.

"I don't think you get that support anywhere else," Smith said. "I don't have a normal job. It's not like, if I miss a game, I can make it up later. That's 1/16th of our season. The game was at 4:15, and [Tomlin] told me, 'If you show up at 2 or 2:30 and you want to play, you're playing.' "

Despite the Steelers' 21-14 loss, Smith said afterward, "This was the best part of my week -- by far." His teammates felt bad about letting him down. He might be the most-respected player in the locker room and is invaluable to the defense. "Every single one of us wanted to win the game for him," nose tackle Chris Hoke said. Added defensive end Brett Keisel, near tears, "I love the guy so much. If I could be like him and live my life like he lives his, I'd die a happy man."

Said Smith last week, "It's unbelievable the group of guys we have. Honestly, I know some of them better than I know my own family."

By all accounts, Smith played well against the Giants, even though he missed all of the practices that week. "At first, it was awkward," he said. "I'm trying to play an NFL game, and my mind is somewhere else. I didn't know their personnel, the plays they ran, their blocking schemes. I didn't know anything about them."

Steelers defensive coordinator Dick LeBeau didn't care. "I knew we were a better team when he walked into the locker room that day. I didn't give a damn about the missed practices."

Smith said LeBeau, more than anyone, has helped him get through Elijah's toughest times. "Talking to him is like talking to your dad." For his part, LeBeau said Smith has "been tremendously solid through this whole thing ... He's been a Pro Bowl defensive lineman since I came back here [in 2004], and this might be his best year." Asked why, LeBeau said, "He never gets blocked."

The road ahead for the Smiths will not be easy. There is the chemo and there may be more steroids treatments. "The steroids was the hardest part to take for me," Smith said. "He was on them for a month. To see my 4-year-old son's body stretch out and his face get round and his personality changes ... "

The Smiths have to keep people away from Elijah because of his weakened immune system, at least until the chemo treatments do their work. He has been hospitalized twice since his diagnosis because of bacterial infections.

It was during one of those hospital stays that Smith said Elijah climbed out of bed and went around the room to each of his sisters, giving them a hug and kiss. "He would be sad and depressed, but he would perk up when they came around. That was a beautiful moment for me. I'll never forget it."

Doctors did allow Elijah to have friends over for a birthday celebration during a time when his blood count was good. They also let him go to one of his favorite restaurants, Red Robin.

"We come in with the kids and put them in the corner," Smith said. "We are pulling out Clorox wipes and wiping the counters, the seats, the ketchup bottles. People probably thought we were crazy."

"Red," the restaurant's mascot, was there that day. His thing is to hug the kids.

"He comes over and reaches across the table to give [Elijah] a high five," Smith said. "My wife jumps up and was like, 'No, no, no! Don't touch.' Elijah is just looking at her and Red is looking ...

"My wife has been unbelievable through this whole thing. I think women are stronger than men ... She just keeps going."

The Steelers will tell you there is no one tougher than Smith. He wasn't expecting this fight, but now he hopes to make something good come from it. He has thrown his considerable weight behind the team's annual locker room blood drive from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Dec. 26 at Heinz Field. Donors will be able to meet current and former Steelers and be eligible to win two tickets to the Steelers-Cleveland Browns game Dec. 28.

"Elijah had to have blood transfusions four, five, maybe even six times," Smith said. "There's such a shortage of blood. I don't think people understand the difference they can make in people's lives by donating. I didn't understand. But you're talking about saving someone's life."

It was time for practice, and Smith had to excuse himself. You might have heard it's a big game against the Ravens.

Smith clearly will be ready for whatever comes his way today. And tomorrow. And all the days ahead.

Flacco is no Roethlisberger, no matter what Ray Ray tells him :ratsuck :ratsuck :ratsuck

http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/08349/935131-66.stm

Baltimore quarterback Joe Flacco, the next Ben Roethlisberger or the next Charlie Frye?

Flacco, who left an unappreciative Pitt to find his fame and fortune through the University of Delaware Blue Hens, is the latest "franchise" quarterback to hit the AFC North Division.

Some, like Roethlisberger and Cincinnati's Carson Palmer, have panned out. Others, such as Frye, Derek Anderson and Kyle Boller, have not.

Today at 4:15 p.m. in Baltimore, Flacco can put himself and the Ravens in the kind of position that Roethlisberger also accomplished as a rookie -- in the playoffs. If it weren't for Flacco, the Ravens would not have had a chance, just as without Roethlisberger the 2004 Steelers would have been a different story.

Both were thrust into the job because of injuries; both thrived once it was theirs. Roethlisberger's success, of course, continued, while Flacco's is yet to be determined.

The comparison between Flacco and Roethlisberger was made early in the season by none other than Baltimore linebacker Ray Lewis. He told his rookie quarterback he could do for the Ravens what Roethlisberger did for the Steelers.

"Yes, Ray said that," Flacco acknowledged. "Ray has said many things to me. It is all to give me the confidence to go out there and play football; that is what I took out of it. He has confidence in me, and the rest of the team has confidence in me. I just have to play the way that I know how to and let it loose. That is what I have tried to do the past 13 weeks. I think that I have done pretty well for us."


Flacco ranks as the hottest rookie quarterback in the league, and it would not be a stretch to remove "rookie" from that equation. His overall statistics while leading Baltimore to a 9-4 record are Roethlisberger rookie-like: 13 touchdowns, 10 interceptions, 23 sacks, a 60.2 completion rate. But he has improved as the season has progressed.

Over the past eight games, Flacco has a 95.6 passer rating, has thrown for 12 touchdowns and three interceptions, and his team has won seven of those.

"Flacco at quarterback just continues to look more and more comfortable," Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said. "He's proven time and again that the stage isn't too big for him."

The Ravens' rookie made an early impression on those who will try to knock his block off today.

"That was the thing that surprised me the most about him," Steelers linebacker James Farrior said. "In our first game, he didn't look flustered at all. He stayed with everything, didn't really look rattled at all. We tried to show him a lot of different looks but really didn't confuse him."

It was only his third game, it was a Monday night and it was in Heinz Field, where he rode the Pitt bench as a backup to Tyler Palko.

It seemed a perfect spot for a rookie quarterback meltdown. Instead, Flacco threw for one touchdown and no interceptions and engineered a 76-yard touchdown drive that tied the game with 4:02 left to send it into overtime.

"No question, he's a talent," Tomlin said. "Shoot, he showed what he was capable of when he drove them the length of the field in the fourth quarter to tie that game up against us. I think he's used that experience and just continued to move forward. It looks like they're just as comfortable with him as he is playing."

It took an injury to Boller and a case of tonsillitis for Heisman Trophy winner Troy Smith to clear a path for Flacco to start as a rookie. It was in Baltimore in the second game of 2004 that Roethlisberger got his chance, after a preseason knee injury to Charlie Batch moved him to No. 2. An injury to starter Tommy Maddox gave him his opportunity.

Batch, who became the starter for the Detroit Lions the third game of his rookie season, said the Ravens are treating Flacco the way the Steelers did Roethlisberger, and the Lions with him. They reduced the playbook, then expanded it as his experience and knowledge grew.

"They're opening it up a little bit as he gets more and more comfortable with it," Batch said. "You can kind of see him maturing as the year goes on.

"That's basically how it goes: Just don't put the defense in a bad situation at the beginning and as it goes through, they open it up. If something happens negatively, they bring it right back down."

The Steelers would like to provide some negatives for him today, but, after searching long and hard since they moved to Baltimore, the Ravens finally seem to have found their longterm quarterback.

Tomlin has grown as a coach
Tomlin was tough in his first season, showing players who was the boss. This year he is more comfortable with his team and has grown as a head coach -- and possibly coach of the year.

Hines Ward on Mike Tomlin -- "He's more comfortable with his ballclub now."

One second Sunday night, Steelers wide receiver Hines Ward was standing outside the team bus at Baltimore's M&T Bank Stadium, saying how coach Mike Tomlin had "done wonders" for this later stage of his fabulous career by excusing him from Wednesday practices and saving his legs. The next second, Tomlin, appearing almost out of nowhere, was right there, listening to every word. Hey, at least Ward was saying nice things about the boss.

"I was just talking about you, coach," Ward said, somewhat sheepishly. "I'm going to keep propping you up so you can do this until you're 40!" Tomlin roared.

An hour earlier, Ward had been a big star in the Steelers' remarkable 13-9, back-from-the-dead victory against the Ravens with eight catches for 107 yards.

"I appreciate it, coach," Ward said.

"A few more years and I'll just make you show up on Fridays," Tomlin said, grinning, before the two headed into the wonderful night as AFC North Division champions.

Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

That Tomlin just might keep Ward going until he's 40, marvelous roll that Tomlin is on?

Can you say NFL coach of the year?

Certainly, Tomlin's name is in that conversation. Despite the league's toughest schedule and significant injuries to starters Willie Parker, Marvel Smith, Kendall Simmons, Brett Keisel and Bryant McFadden, the Steelers are 11-3 and will play the Tennessee Titans Sunday for, in all likelihood, the top seed in the AFC playoffs. It's not at all difficult to imagine the Steelers winning two playoff games at Heinz Field and stepping right into Super Bowl XLIII.

That's some coaching.

"I've seen him grow," veteran linebacker and undisputed team leader James Farrior said of Tomlin.

"He's more comfortable with his ballclub now," Ward said.

"He's changed his approach quite a bit," safety Troy Polamalu said.

A year ago, Tomlin still was trying to find his way as a first-time head coach. He had inherited a veteran team -- one year removed from a Super Bowl title -- from longtime coach Bill Cowher. Of course, he had to find his way.

The 2007 Steelers started 9-3 and won the AFC North but faded badly down the stretch, losing three of their final four games and another to the Jacksonville Jaguars in a first-round playoff game at home.

"We all ran out of gas," linebacker LaMarr Woodley said.

"We practiced really, really hard at the end of the season," Polamalu said. "All season, actually, from training camp on. We were really beat down."

Tomlin learned. All the smart ones do. He no longer had to show the players he was the boss. They understood.

Tomlin has scaled down his practices this season. Often, he sends the players out during the week without their shoulder pads, much to their delight. They still work hard, but there isn't that sapping intensity that is best saved for Sundays. He also began giving veteran players such as Ward an extra day off each week.

"You never win a game on Wednesday," Ward said. "I'm going into the games 100 percent. You're seeing the results."

Not just with Ward.

With the team.

The Steelers have won five games in a row, the past three against rugged competition -- the Ravens, Dallas Cowboys and New England Patriots. They outscored the Patriots, 23-0, in the second half. They scored 17 fourth-quarter points to beat the Cowboys. They scored the final 10 points to beat the Ravens.

"Steelers football is 60 minutes," Tomlin gushed to his happy players as they made it back to the locker room after the game Sunday.

A little later, Tomlin told the media, "I think it speaks to the football character of our team. There were several reasons and instances when the faint of heart would have let go of the rope in that football game. They didn't. Hopefully, it's a window to what we are capable of. We'll see as we go forward."

The man really does have a kinder, gentler side.

Of course, that doesn't mean Tomlin can't be tough when the situation demands it.

At training camp this season, Tomlin very publicly made his displeasure known with overweight nose tackle Casey Hampton. It didn't matter that the player nicknamed Big Snack was a Pro Bowler; Tomlin put him on the physically-unable-to-perform list until he rounded into shape.

Just last week, Tomlin firmly handled a potential crisis with Parker, who had complained to the media that the team had gotten away from "Steelers football" by not running the ball enough. Parker also second-guessed the two-tight end, no-fullback system that offensive coordinator Bruce Arians prefers in running situations.

Parker's timing was lousy.

The Steelers were 10-3 and headed into their biggest game of the season against the Ravens, their top division rival.

Tomlin let Parker know he didn't appreciate it.

"The issue for us has been, is and hopefully will continue to be winning -- that's my interpretation of Steelers football," Tomlin said after practice Thursday at the season's most memorable news conference. "Every morning when I come to work, I walk past five Lombardis, not five rushing titles. The issue is winning."

Asked about the effectiveness of Arians' run-game offense in light of Parker's comments, Tomlin said, "It was working pretty good last year when [Parker] was leading the league in rushing before he was hurt."

Touche.

But the story doesn't end there.

When Tomlin reinstated Hampton near the end of the preseason, he made it a point to stress how valuable the big fella was to the Steelers' defense. And before the game Sunday, he told Parker that he wanted him as one of his captains that day.

In both cases, it was Tomlin's way of saying, "We might fuss and fight as a family now and then, but we're all in this together. We have to be together. We can do great things as one."

Farrior isn't alone.

We've all watched Tomlin grow.

Flippy, we actually did do a "travels of the terrible towel" photoshop awhile back. One of my entries was the Abbey Road that I posted earlier. Here are the others (the pole vault chick one isn't so good, but who cares...look at the chick!!!):

By the way, a little confession for you guys. The first Steelers game I saw at a real Steelers bar was 11/12/06 against the Saints. I was living in Baltimore and went to (then - the name has changed) The Purple Goose (http://www.bizjournals.com/baltimore/stories/2005/11/07/focus1.html) on Washington Blvd. There were nearly 200 Steelers fans there to watch the game and it was simply amazing. Big deal...some confession you say, right? Well the confession is that I actually shed a few tears being surrounded by all those die hards...but I kept the tears hidden. :oops:

When we won Super Bowl XL and I was surrounded by all those crazy Steeler fans in the bar across the street from Ford Field, I must say I got a little misty too.

Although most of it was from the Beers being tossed up in to the sky.

It was raining beer. Steelers won Super Bowl. It was like heaven....

Hey, I did the same thing in '98, my one and only trip to the 'burgh. Being in that city and seeing all those fans...then going to a game at TRS, a game I thought sure we would lose on MNF against the Packers...wow!

I had my WI "Steeler" license plates rigged so I could wear them...one on the front and one on the back. At one point in the parking lot this smoking hot Steelers fan chick came up to me, looked at what I was wearing and asked, "You're from WI and you love the Steelers?" I nodded yes and she yelled "Whooooooooooo!" and gave me a big hug!

Nice job committing to the run in the 1st half. I think it really helped our early passing game.

Anyone else here Simms mention before the game, TEN is primarily concerned about Troy. Not James Harrison.

By the way, I am so glad that we don't have "1995 AFC Champions" so prominently displayed in our stadium like that. :loser

Wonder if anyone has the video of the first time Renegade was ever played?

Can this Defense and Ben channel the power of the original Renegade comeback?

Of all the SuperBowls and big games we've seen over the years, that Maddox comeback energized me more than any other game.

Let's bring back Maddox as a QB coach or something. I love that guy!!!!!!!
