The last video was the only one I could get to play. Mc afee is funny but saying Ed Reed was better than Troy is wrong. At the least Troy was just as good. I think he was better.

a lot of northern Ohio people going to be hating seeing all that Black and Gold running around Canton, Ohio.

That Pat Mcafee story makes me laugh every time. Never gets old.

I can't wait to hear Dick give his induction speach.

can anyone enlighten me on how cowher gets inducted before george seifert ? i believe the only statistic cowher has him beat is years 15 > 11 and more games 240 > 176 . seifert has a better winning % .648 > .623 and and a 2-0 SB record > 1-1.
10-5 .667 % playoff record vs 12-9 .571 %

George was gifted Montana and Young in his two super bowls. Cowher was gifted Neil O'Donnell, Mike Tomczak, Kordell Stewart, Kent Graham and Tommy Maddox the first 13 years of his coaching career.

Oh yeah, he really laid Campbell out on that one. He hit him while he was vulnerable, but Campbell probably had at least 50 pounds on Shell and he laid him out like a rag doll. When I was a kid watching Steelers, especially more in the 80s when they started to have mediocre seasons, it seemed so many times that the game would be in jeopardy then all of a sudden Shell would come out of nowhere with an INT and start running the other way. I am so glad he is finally a HOFer

It was great seeing Shell and Polamalu inducted this weekend. Cowher too. I thought Troy's speech was the best of the 3. I'm trying to think if any other team had 2 coaches in a row make HOF. From Noll's hiring to Cowher's retirement the Steelers were coached almost 40 years by HOF head coaches

Even longer if you consider that Tomlin will be in the HOF someday as well.

A great player and a classier person. BTW, time Donnie Shell got into the HOF!
