    If he washes out of two American coaching jobs, maybe he could use that slogan when he rehabs his career in the German Football League.

    Foster and Pouncey have been ripping Bell to the media today. Steelers season might already be sunk thanks to this drama.

    Any Steeler shitshow is enjoyable.

    Okay, nerd alert, and it isn't my fantasy team... but every single fantasy expert had him top 5, top 3.
    It is fantasy malfeasance to push a guy as a top draft pick on labor day weekend who hasn't yet stepped into camp.

    I demand these fantasy experts be called on the carpet!!

    I took him second in the first round a week ago. Kinda queasy now, but I figure he really does not want to miss many game checks.

    I hope.

    As they should. If the team falters without him, I wouldn't be shocked to see some unintentional/intentional missed blocks whenever he does return. He has every right to do what he's doing, but his teammates have every right to turn their backs on him.

    At least I get to see the anti-Steelers crowd here make asses of themselves. That brightened my day a bit.

    No doubt Bell, through his agent or otherwise, has word of his bidder for 2019 forward. He's showing up in Week 10. "pulling a hammy" on the second series and sitting out the rest of the season. In his mind it's worth the Steelers thumbs up his ass for $30-40M guaranteed money on a shitty team next year.

    Or he can hope the Steelers rescind the tag so he can sign a one-year deal with the Patriots or some other contender, then get the big money next offseason.

    And if that doesn’t work out, he can have a Fourth Reich in Argentina.

    So you think the local boy who beat cancer might have a few Yinzers cheering for him?

    That's not happening. They already got fucked over by LeGarrette Blount in a similar manner....I don't think they are going to do anything that would benefit Bell or a contender.
