I like Hurdle...but I agree...the only way you break out of mediocrity is to revamp your minors, and have five or six guys coming up together...like the Rays...

Yo Va...wasn't he with Pittsburgh a few years back in some capacity?

Well, their minor leagues are vastly better in the last couple of years....
They have some of the best young arms in baseball the last two years, some are in AA, some in A, and some just started Rookie Ball, like the two best arms in the draft last year, Jameson Taillon and Stetson Allie, plus the #1 young international pitcher, 16 year old Luis Heredia from Mexico....
So it's gonna be a couple more years, but I finally see some light at the end of the tunnel.....Eat Us And Smile - The Originals

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger's sprained foot is actually broken, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported Thursday.
The Post-Gazette said that the fifth metatarsal bone or the outside metatarsal on his right foot was broken during the first quarter of the Steelers' win Sunday in Buffalo.
The Steelers, who have listed the quarterback's foot as sprained, denied that Roethlisberger's foot was broken in a statement Thursday. The team said the injury is simply "an aggravation of an old injury where scar tissue is present."
Roethlisberger was limited in practice Thursday, but said he plans to play Sunday against Baltimore. He has not missed a snap since returning Oct. 17 from his four-game suspension.
Roethlisberger has been wearing a reinforced shoe in practice that stabilizes the foot yet allows enough movement to play, but according to the Post-Gazette, he has a heavy limp without the shoe and has been wearing a protective boot when off the field.
Pittsburgh offensive coordinator Bruce Arians told the Post-Gazette that the injury shouldn't impact the team's game plan against the Ravens.

They're saying that his foot was previously broken, and this injury is due to the scar tissue built up....
Unfortunately, I don't think it matters much... I've seen too many of these games vs. the Ravens to predict what's going to happen....
1. Ravens blitz until the cows come home.
2. Steelers (read Arians, Bruce) refuse to call any plays that will not only counteract, but burn the Ravens for blitzing all the time, such as draws, screens and quick slants...
3. Ray Rice will have an average game, like around 80 yards or so.
4. Steelers CB's continue to give Ravens WR's a 10 yard cushion, thus making Flacco out to be Johnny Fucking Unitas.
Ravens by 10.....

You know, if the league hates James Harrison, Ben and the Steelers and LOVES Manning, Brady and Brees, I am cool with that. Let the pretty boys be the face of the league, that's fine. And I don't wanna be that guy, but...
JUST DON'T MAKE IT SO OBVIOUS!!!
For the love of GOD, could you imagine what would have happened is Harrison would have hit Manning in the nose. They probably would have had him shot at half time. You KNOW there would have been a flag. EASILY a fine over $50,000. And the hit on Miller... If that guy doesn't get over $25,000, it will just prove my point (no flag on that either...)

Wannstedt out after six seasons as Pitt coach
By ALAN ROBINSON The Associated Press
Tuesday, December 7, 2010; 4:48 PM
PITTSBURGH -- Dave Wannstedt is out as Pitt football coach following a disappointing season in which the Panthers were big favorites to win a weak Big East Conference, only to finish 7-5 and qualify for a minor bowl.
Pitt called a 5:30 p.m. EST news conference to announce that the former Bears and Dolphins coach was stepping down, under pressure from athletic director Steve Pederson. Wannstedt, highly respected by Pitt's administration, is expected to stay with the school in a non-coaching position.
Wannstedt's six-season tenure was marked by upset losses to teams such as Ohio University and Bowling Green and a failure to play in a BCS bowl.
