    Haaa, little guy is 7
    My big guy's a sophomore and plays JV and Varsity Football in Ridgefield,Conn and Basketball in the winter.
    Bad year though, he broke his wrist in August, came back for 2 games and just fractured his tibia.....
    He's kind of like the Polamalu of Ridgefield..LOL

      I guess Ovie was wrong...you mustn't be feeding him right...get that boy some more milk...he needs calcium in his bones stat!
      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.

        Before the game the announcers were commenting on how little B&G they saw compared to most road games. Then, as plays occurred, the crowd would chant "Heath", cheer for Steelers big plays etc. Just like old times.
        I was going to mention this as well. Simms said there was visibly less Steeler fans than normal (which I chalked up to the hurricane, hard to travel, no where to stay, etc.) but when it came to the audio, it seemed like there was fairly equal cheering from both fan bases, so, either there were still a lot of Steeler fans present, or Steeler fans are 20x louder than Giant fans.

          Holy crap! 15 y/o and 6-6, 325? Is he playing OT? What do you feed him? Everything he wants, right? Which one are you?

            Maybe he'd be better off just trying to be the white Shaq.

            Football's not for everyone. I broke my hand in highschool getting my caught in a guy's facemask. One break was the end of my football career and I stuck with baseball and basketball from then on out.

            Sometimes it's a freak thing, but I always thought some guys are just not built to deal with football injuries and others are. And the older and bigger everyone gets, this seems to be the biggest separator between who can play and who can't. Hopefully it's just a string of bad luck. We need that kid at T sooner than later.

              Except that in the NBA, people who are 6'6" are shooting guards, not centers.

                He's 15. By the time he's done growing, he might be 8 ft.

                    Too bad about Hood and I don't see this guy getting any better. Couldn't they allow Cam a shot at his spot ? How often was McClendon given the chance and how did he do ?
