Posted by on Monday, 18 January, 2016

Steel Balls TrophyFellow Ballers, another year has come and gone. Sadly it ended a little sooner than hoped, but it was a fascinating season with many positives.

Now is the time for us to review our 2015 season prognostications and crown a new Steel Balls Trophy champion.  It was a tough competition with over 50% of participants correctly predicting the Steelers’ regular season win total. This meant we had to dig deep into the complex and secretly guarded tie-breaking procedures in order to determine a winner beyond dispute.

Please read on to discover this year’s winner.

This isn’t the first time a Steelers HOF quarterback had to look for extra special assistance for an ailing arm. Maybe Rajah is still available. (Click to enlarge).

I know this is last week’s game which is irrelevant, but it’s still pretty funny to watch.

Isn’t this exactly the same way that The Bus reacted after his epic fumble in Indianapolis in 2005?

No, I’m not serious. That’s some smarmy sarcasm there. In case you weren’t sure.

Antwon Blake makes some plays

Posted by on Tuesday, 15 December, 2015

Much maligned Antwon Blake is burned often but sometimes does make some plays. In Sunday’s game against the Bengals he was solid on back to back plays on the Bengals’ opening drive. In the first he makes an open field tackle to stop a long run. He did get bulldozed a bit, but still made the tackle, notable for someone who allegedly can’t tackle. In the next play he tracks the receiver on a deep route to the end zone – even turning to look for the ball – and prevents a catch.
