Shoe replied to a thread Training Camp Injury Thread in Steelers Talk

No doubt. There are very few guys who are soft. BUT... there is a level of physical toughness that can take down the most mentally tough guys....

Shoe replied to a thread Ray Rice gets a joke of a suspension in Steelers Talk

Let's chill out a bit, people. It isn't like black guys who beat on woman have traditionally enjoyed concessions on their consequences. I would...

Shoe replied to a thread What's the Call? 'Ask Shaq' in Steelers Talk

I still don't get why he wasn't regarded enough for a Combine invite. Talented kid--talented enough to be recruited by UCLA, good size, good speed,...

Shoe replied to a thread Why doesn't Timmons get more love? in Steelers Talk

Stick Poz on our D, and it'll still rank Top 10 all day. Stick Timmons on JAX D, and he will not move that needle much, if at all. Look, I'm not...

What are you talking about? You need to go and look at Pozluszny's production, his contract status, and his accolades (I think he made the Pro Bowl...

That's it right there. He probably would've made the Pats* or Jets, if he was more position flexible. I don't get it. He would prefer to not be in...

Shoe replied to a thread Why doesn't Timmons get more love? in Steelers Talk

Plus, he is just not that good. He is a solid, starting NFL LB. But (and someone evoked the name), he's not Patrick Willis. He doesn't make plays. He...

I like the Steelers over, for sure. I think the biggest upgrade will be on our Offensive Line, with Munchak, and Pouncey coming back. If we can...

Troy's impact (loss) coincided with others too. I think that doesn't get played up enough. e.g. One year, Troy was hurt a while, but it coincided...
