| I'm posting from later in the article on Aaron Smith, where it's more interesting ... ------------------- By Mike Bires So considering his age and injuries, there’s been speculation about his status with the Steelers. Some wonder if he might be cut due to salary cap concerns. Some wonder if Smith will be asked to re-negotiate his contract. He’s due to make $4.5 million this season. Some wonder if Smith will be a backup now that Hood is entering his third season. After all, Hood played well last year when taking over for Smith. There’s no reason to believe Hood won’t soon be the Steelers’ next all-star defensive end. “Not me,” Smith said, when asked if he’d be upset if Hood started in front of him. “I’m about winning football games, and if they feel someone else can get the job done better, then by all means let it happen. I’ll do whatever it takes to help us win.”http://www.timesonline.com/sports/steelers/time-may-not-be-on-steelers-smith-s-side/article_b5a86da3-98fe-5710-9957-0f7bbd0323f8.html --------------------------- Awesome!  We have a lot of guys with that kind of attitude. Is it any surprise why we're competitive year after year? _________________  If you're going to be a smart ass, you'd better be smart.

Awesome!

That's what I love about Steeler football. _________________  (Big thanks to Wally for hooking me up with a great sig.) "I am proud to be a Steeler, no doubt about it.
