Don't give up on RB Frank "The Tank" Summers just yet

[flippy]

I've never expected anything from Summers. Any positive would surprise me.

How 'bout we start a "Positives about Frank the Tank" thread? You know, like the ones for Ben.

1. He's big
2. Has a body like the Bus
3. He's never fumbled at the goal line in Indy
4. He got injured in his first season - could be Mendy deja vu
5. He's elusive - avoids blocking people
6. Did I mention he's big?

7. He's got a cool nickname that makes you think about Will Ferrell streaking
8. I've heard that he's pretty big too

9. He's never dropped a duece in anyone's closet
10. He's got a large head
11. Tanks could destroy Busses
12. Ben allegedly promised to get him his first SuperBowl last year, but since Tank got hurt, Ben decided to wait a year
13. Ben got in trouble taking a Bus to GA. He shoulda taken the Tank instead.

Now the shower is a whole different story! :P
Ben almost "Tanked" in GA.

14. He makes great fodder for forum discussion.
15. He's never fumbled ... I think ... at least as a Steeler.

A herniated disc sounds bad, but the article makes it seem as though he is medically fine. That is the only thing that concerns me about Summers. I felt WAY too much was made about a handful of ineffective blocks, his rookie year.

He acknowledges in this piece that it is the little details that need work, and I certainly don't rule it out that he would become a very effective and even lethal blocker with maturity.

I love the man's attitude. I certainly will be pulling for him.
