well thats my #1 favorite athlete of all time so i can't be impartial here.
with that said, there is absolutely no way he isn't a lock for a hall of famer. he's got just about every Steelers receiving record (while 2 other Steelers WR's are in the hall already) and he's got 2 rings, a super bowl MVP and is Korean.
AJ, you got a little Steelers crush going on, i like it !

Of course Ben was, Hines was the MVP of the first Super Bowl and Ben played like $#%@ and they still won.

How dumb was Kemoeatu during the game Saturday? Twice diving into the pile so late that people were starting to get off the pile when he came rushing in. Dude should have had two personals and probably been thrown out as he come crashing in head first 3-4 seconds after the whistle on two plays. That doesn't seem like hustle to me, more like lack of brains.

After reading that ESPN article last week and just thinking about how bad his oline is and how amazing is he is at making plays... i wont say he's the best but i dont think i'd want anyone besides him for the Steelers qb.
crazy to think some Steelers fans wanted him out after the offseason stuff.
he's not pretty to watch, but people can't tackle him and he makes a ton of plays because of it. It's sickening actually because I routinely bet against the Steelers and that's why I suck at the nfl
...and corey that pic is really cool. The one time i didn't go to vegas with my friends my roomate (big UK fan, god only knows why) was playing cards with Kelenna Azubuike (sp?) and lost like half his money playing at the big money tables to chat with him. He didn't get a pic tho so I tell him i refuse to believe him

only one got called and it could have made a big difference on that first one making it 2nd and 16 instead of 2nd and 1

Hands down, the worst fine this year was Gary Brackett's fine for blocking on an INT return at home against the Titans. They called it an illegal blindside hit but the guy clearly turned his head and was looking directly at Brackett as he was hit. I may be just showing my Colts homerism but it was terrible. Gary Brackett's never made a dirty play in his career.

Yea I think this was after the second superbowl? 2008? It was at the Palms and he was hanging out with Antonio Pierce and Plaxico Burress.
I hate being that guy interrupts their real life but I was drunk and he just won the Super Bowl and he was just standing there so I gave it a shot. He was cool as hell and I congratulated him on the ring and he was appreciative and actually shook my wife's hand as well. Cool guy.

Anyone see this video of Rodgers "snubbing" the breast cancer survivor in the airport?
I heard about this on Dan Patrick this morning and supposedly the Wisconsin news is having a field day with it. Really????

I know i am in the minority but I can not stand Rodgers and his exceptionally gay td celebration. Guy just comes off as a dick every time i see him on tv. I hope the Bears shave a little bit of his hair everytime they get a sack.
Now with that being said, he is still one of the best QBs.

I think he is borderline "pricky". He was a prick at the draft when people didnt draft him earlier than expected and I think he may have a little chip on his shoulder. Everytime I have heard him in an interview he comes off as being a little conceited but I could care less really. He is a hell of a QB and approaching top 5 status if not there already.
Not saying the dude has to sign for everyone and he did say in the interview this morning he has signed for her in the past. But he went on to say "I didnt see her there" when he walked by, now thats just a blatant lie.

see i don't know if i agree.
i think he's so used to walking in public places that he probably has his head down or even if he's lookin up he's probably not seeing anything but trying to get thru the fans.
it seems like she wasn't the only person there looking for an autograph either.
i'll say this, if my jumper improves and i get an NBA call up, i'm not signing autographs for anyone over the age of 13 unless they are sick or handicapped... ever.
i remember being at the final 4 when UConn won it and these vulchers had BAGS of final 4 UConn gear and were harrassing the shit out of these guys to sign so they could profit online. smart business but it made me sick watching it as little kids weren't getting a chance to get a signed hat for their room.

Im with you. The memorabilia nerds are out of hand at events and ruins it for the regular dude that just wants to walk up and say whats up and congrats on a big win.
I think he totally saw her and decided fuck this, Im not signing today. Doesnt make him a bad person but he's lying saying he didnt see her. You dont "not" see someone you have signed for before and know her by first name. Especially a hairless cancer survivor decked out in pink that you have seen numerous times before.
He just didnt feel like signing and kept on going. Doesnt make him a bad person though.
