    Holmes thank you letter to Steeler fans

    Go to his website and check out the time on his phone...he will never learn...

    As one chapter of my life comes to a close, another chapter is just beginning. I would like to sincerely thank all of my fans for making my four years as a Steeler a memorable one. This is the team where I won my first Super Bowl ring, received the Super Bowl XLIII MVP and also won my first ESPY award. How can I move forward and not take those feelings and experiences with me. Those are the ones that left such a great taste in my mouth and wanting to strive for more. The support and encouragement you have given me from day one has been such an inspiration that I will continue to carry with me.

    I have made some mistakes in my past that I am not proud of, but the most important thing is that I have learned from them. God has given me the opportunity to make a clean start and I am really excited about moving forward in a positive direction.

    To all of my New York Jets fans, thank you for welcoming me with open arms. The 2010 season is going to be a great one. I know the reason Mike Tannenbaum, Coach Ryan and Mr. Johnson brought me to this team is to help win a Super Bowl and I plan on helping them accomplish that goal.

    Thank you again for all your support and encouragement.

    God Bless,

    Santonio Holmes – New York Jets Wide Receiver

        You can't make $#!% like this up!
        Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

        Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

        We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

        We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.

          Is he stupid enough to think nobody else knows the slang or is he rubbing it in Goodell's face?

              He apparently didn't think anyone from the team's front office or the league offices would know what "wake-and-bake" meant (or else he was too stupid to realize that anyone with a Twitter account to access what he posted on there).

                  I think he can thank us much more effectively by playing poorly against us in the regular season and then following up in the playoffs (if applicable).

                      ... and verbose too. Could have just ended with "memorable."

                        Should have kept it short and sweet:

                        "Thank you fans of Pittsburgh. I love you guys, but I love weed more"

                          He should do a take-off on the T.O. "I love me some me!" bit, changing it to "I love me some weed!"

                            Anybody else find it odd that everybody that commented had only nice things to say?
