    Bucs Cut Mahan

    From Rotoworld:

    Bucs released G/C Sean Mahan.
    Mahan was paid over $6 million to guard the water cooler last season, and he restructured his deal in June to avoid being cut. It turns out that it didn't matter. Mahan was due $5+ million over the next three years.
    Hmm. With Stapelton on IR, maybe the Steelers could use a lineman capable of playing both guard and center?

    I know you're kidding, but, are you nuckin futs? You should be disbarred or put on probation from SteelerNation for even thinking those words, let alone actually writing them down in a public forum. :P

      Come on pappy, philly might have a point. Frankly, with Duce gone last year, I thought Sepulvada was a poor substitute to guard the water cooler. Mahan just could be that guy.

        I don't know Sepulveda's guns look big enough to guard the cooler. Mahan would whiff the first time someone rushed the water cooler anyhow.

            You're right. That probably was over the line. My bad.

            To be fair, he might not wiff. He might simply be driven back into the water cooler.

                  What do you mean? Mahan was a joke from the moment the Steelers signed 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.

                    For a really good joke, I remember at least one poster on the trib board, no idea who, saying that Mahan would be better than Hartings.

                      Mahan could have been a Dominant CENTER if he just got on some serious steroids and had another year of eligibility to play D3 College Football

                          All i can think of reading this thread is that pic of Duce's body with his hands in his sweatpants (common stance for him) but with Mahan's head photoshopped on it.

                          Outstanding.

                            Wonderful, just wonderful. Now he can step on Big Ben's ankle when Silverback is trying to get some Gatorade.
