    And based on how old Charlie Batch is, that is not necessarily out of the realm of possibility.

    Get the kid to a tanning salon, stat! It's all about the melanin, baby.
    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.

      He looks like an overpaid farm-hand.

      In response to his pleas, an officer said: "You think we've never arrested somebody that's made national media? ... We deal with the Bengals all the time."

        #17 will be available next year if he wants to wait.

          I was just talking about Burress in another thread, the one about Wallace dropping the pass. Burress is a great red zone target. I just have to wonder if this means that AB is hurt worse than expected? Great move though.

            White AND he didn't play in the MAC either. This team is losing its' identity quick.

              Next year, Burress should be eligible to start receiving Social Security checks, though.

                Ab is questionable, so he's improving

                  Burress?? Not excited. I'm actually not sure why anyone who likes the Steelers would be.

                      If the Steelers had to sign an over-the-hill, former Steelers WR I'd have rather seen them sign Hines instead.

                        Swann and Stallworth looked like they were in good shape at the team's 80th birthday celebration at halftime of Sunday night's game.

                          Cotch is out next week as well. Without signing Burress we would be down to three healthy WRs and Gilreath wasn't on the active roster a week ago.

                            Maybe we should nickname him Vitiligo.

                              I'm trying to think of other Steelers who started out with us, left for a while, then came back again. Right now, Willie Williams, Chad Brown, and Plaxico Burress come to mind. Others I am missing?
