By Dave Bryan on Monday, January 23rd, 2012 | No Comments

Former Steelers great Jerome Bettis showed up in the latest Papa John pizza commercial on Sunday that was a promo for the Super Bowl XLVI Coin Toss Experience. Peyton Manning also has a cameo as the referee that pokes fun of the Thanksgiving coin toss debacle against the Detroit Lions back on on November 26, 1998. The Benstonium crew already has a Ace Ventura spoof out of the missed kick by Billy Cundiff in the AFC Championship game. This time it is “Laces out, Sam”, instead of “Laces out, Dan.” This of course would make Cundiff, Ray Finkle and Sam Koch, Dan Marino. Too funny. Speaking Read more [...]

By Dave Bryan on Wednesday, January 18th, 2012 | 2 Comments

Pittsburgh Steelers president Art Rooney II sat down with a few members of the Pittsburgh media on Tuesday for a half hour interview to discuss the Steelers past season and look ahead to 2012. You can read the question and answers here on the Post-Gazette blog. When you read through everything there were not too many surprises if you ask me, but I will go over the main talking points below with my own comments and view points added to a few of the things that Rooney said.

Leadership: The Missing Piece In 2012

By Jeremy Hritz on Thursday, January 12th, 2012 | 7 Comments

By Jeremy Hritz Before the 2011 Steelers season even began, a gaggle of random acts of immaturity unrelated to anything on the playing field raised serious reasons for concern. LaMarr Woodley ran off at the mouth on the NFL Network that Joe Flacco would not win a Super Bowl “in his lifetime;” Rashard Mendenhall foolishly shared an insensitive personal perspective about 9-11 on Twitter; James Harrison bashed his teammates in Men’s Journal, not to mention Roger Goodell, who honestly, probably deserves some of it for his crusade to sissify a man’s game. Throw in the revered veteran Hines Read more [...]

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell wants defensive players to start legally destroying knees of offensive players and Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker James Harrison is now complying with what the commissioner wants.

Doug Farrar has a good breakdown on what happened on the final pass play from Tim Tebow to Demaryius Thomas.
