    Bums me out watching Harrison in tiger stripes

    I know he's not a Steeler now but it still sucks seeing him in puke orange tonight against the Falcons. Considering he took less than the Steelers' offer to play there; it's a shame a deal didn't get worked out. Man... He was fun to watch...

    Yeah, I've got to live around these Bengals fans down here. I'm not sure how I'll react when I see them in #92 jersey's.

          I know. I am still depressed that JH is not here. He could still make plays for this team and he will be missed. Now, I have to sit here and watch the bengals enjoy the fruita of his labor.

            He looks like a girly girl in Tiger Stripes.

            There, I said it. ... and you do even more, Tiger Stripe Girly Girl #92, and probably for real too. And I don't care if you see this, you Cincinnati loser. If you want a piece of me, my name is right below, come and get it, fat boy.

              OTOH, we will get to watch JJ make plays at OLB for the next 10 years, whereas James has got two years tops. Would we have still drafted JJ if JH were still here? Aren't the Steelers usually pretty good judges on things type of things.

                      That is a really interesting question.

                      James was one of my favorite Steelers and it was painful to see him with the Bungles. But if the tradeoff is a year or two of Harrison for Jarvis Jones, from what I've heard about Jones so far, I'll take it.

                        JH leaves a great legacy, but this is 2013.

                        Will we still miss him when he goes down with an injury?
                        Will we still miss it when we watch the news every week to see if he will be fined or suspended for every hit?
                        Will we miss seeing flags fly for hits that would go unflagged for most?
                        Will we miss watching him get held to the point that he gets tackled out of the play with no flag?

                        I'm guessing that at some point this season many will stop missing him. We have our memories.

                          I will miss him to. But in reality, we had to move on. He was refusing to restructure his contract. And like it or not, Harrison was no longer then player he was in 2008-90, and 2010. He has gone down hill the past 2 years, and has gained alot of weight as well. Yes his experience will help Cincy, and their young LB's. And I hate that. But as is, we had to move forward.

                            i'd say in the short term. It was probably better we go with someone like eifert, a WR, or a corner (Ike's age) and draft an OLB in the 2-4 rounds and see if be develops or even if worldis could show something.

                            As for the long term, we'll have to wait and see

                              I had to grin when he was telling the coach to F off when they were telling him not to contact A.J. Green in practice. The coach said his piece, and asked James "Do we understand each other?" then James essentially told him (in colorful Deebo language) that he plays his way and that means people get hit. He then asked the coach "Do we understand each other?" and it looked like the coach backed down. He always was avoiding the cameras at all cost like they were a nuisance to him.
                              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.
