I've put it out there before, I'm a fan of Chad Johnson . That's right...Johnson. You see, I'm now refusing to call him that other last name until he lets me follow him on Twitter . Oh I used to follow his tweets. I mean, I didn't even know he had me blocked. Yes...Chad Johnson blocked little old me. Someone tweeted something about him, so I clicked through to his profile and noticed that his tweets...
Okay, one more breakdown of a poor defensive play by the Pittsburgh Steelers defense. This time the culprit was rookie cornerback Keiwan Ratliff , the former Colts defensive back that was acquired this past summer during free agency. Let's take a look at just how badly he got beaten during the 4th quarter of Pittsburgh's 28-20 victory over the Detroit Lions on Sunday. Pretty straight forward stuff...
Ike Taylor usually waits until Wednesday to start bugging Coach Mike Tomlin about the possibility of shadowing the other team's top receiver. This time, he didn't even wait that long.
Apparently, the Steelers regularly have a fashion show that they call Steelers Style. It’s unclear when the first Steelers Style show occurred. But judging by the past pictures, fur coats were very popular back then. Ike Taylor and Heath Miller will “captain” the fashion show this year.

Remember this little shoving match from three years ago between Bengals WR Chris Henry and Steelers CB Ike Taylor? At the time, Taylor was a Super Bowl-winning defensive back with a pick in the big game to match. Henry was a guy with multiple drug and weapons arrests to his credit, with little on-field production. Ike went on to win another Super Bowl. In the meantime, Chris still: ...was found in...
We now continue to look at the state of Catholic campus ministry across the nation. I am doing this by looking at the Catholic presence on campus of the schools that Louisiana Tech and LSU play in football this year.. These week LSU gets a Louisiana opponent from just down the road. That is ULL. ULL Catholics are very deceptive as they promulgate their lies. In Louisiana there are two major University...
Ike Taylor spends a large portion of his offseason training and working out at Disney's Wide World of Sports Complex in Orlando, Fla., trying to improve his speed, strength and technique.

I ripped this idea straight from our friends over at Hogs Haven , the Washington Redskins SBNation Blog. They decided to list in order the players that they felt would have the biggest effect on the team if they were injured or unable to play for multiple games during the season. Similar to how they did the list on their blog I am factoring in depth at the position along with the actual performance...

Here's my latest version of what I think the Steelers 53-man roster will look like when the roster is trimmed down from 80. The players who are underlined are those that I think may be on the bubble. OFFENSE: Quarterbacks (3): Ben Roethlisberger , Charlie Batch , Dennis Dixon Running Backs (5): Willie Parker , Rashard Mendenhall , Mewelde Moore , Carey Davis , Frank Summers Wide Receivers (5): Hines...
by Dan Graziano Filed under: Steelers , NFL Training Camp LATROBE, Pa. -- Here at Steelers training camp, there's always a class in session. Practice ends, but not all at once. As some players hop on golf carts and head back to the dorms on the campus of St. Vincent College, others stay to ask and answer questions. Ziggy Hood, a rookie defensive lineman out of Missouri, picks the brain of 11-year...
by JJ Cooper Filed under: Steelers , AFC North When William Gay was drafted, the worries were that he was too light and too short to ever be more than a nickel back. He may still be short, but no one can accuse Gay of being too light to start any more. The third-year corner who is penciled in to replace Bryant McFadden at cornerback told the Washington Observer-Reporter that he is 15 pounds heavier...
