That was hilarious.
Arguing with idiots is like playing chess with a pigeon. No matter how good you are, the pigeon is going to shit on the board and strut around like it won anyway.

He definitely seemed to have lost a step or two by the time his career was over. Whether that was because he was too bulked up to play in a scheme which was not ideal for him, or whether it was because years of throwing caution to the wind had caught up to him, I cannot exactly remember. Although difficult to have to say goodbye at the time it does seem like the right decision was made.

I have always remembered an enjoyed this quote from him:

(Polamalu added with a laugh:) "Maybe it was a sign for me to retire when I chase my kids around and couldn't catch them. It was either a sign for me to retire or a sign for them to begin training."
Carolina:
2.33 Payton Wilson, MLB, NC St.
2.39 Jalen McMillan, WR, Wash
3.65 Blake Corum, RB, Michigan
4.101 Audric Estimé, RB, Notre Dame
5.141 Matt Lee, C, Miami
5.142 Jalyx Hunt, Hybrid S/LB/Edge, Houston Christian
7.240 Judge Culpepper, DL, Toledo

So awesome.

Hard Knocks is gonna be insane!!!
There is no way the Steelers will be on hard knocks, Rooney won’t let them. Selfishly, I’d love to see them be on the show. Being in Indiana, I never get to see the Steelers outside of the games.
I give it a 90% chance of happening. Steelers don’t have any of the acceptable excuses.
Yeah- it's an almost certainty the Steelers on hard knocks this year.
