Potsy (not sure If I got that spelled right)  James Farrior, the guy with old man strength  Favorite Nicknames - Page 2 1797695198 Favorite Nicknames - Page 2 1797695198
Potsie. Man I forgot about him. I always thought he was sort of underrated. Not by the team itself but by the fans. IIRC he was captain for a long time too.

Farrior may have been underrated by some, but to many of us he was and will be an all-time favorite. (Of course, I have a long list of all-time favorites.)
Maybe not Steelers fans but he never got the amount of attention that Troy, Deebo(another great nickname), got from other fans. But yeah I enjoyed him too. I forget if it was him or Peezy that shouted out after we beat the Bengals in the 2005 playoffs "Who dey they think going to beat them Bengals?"

That was Peezy. Farrior was more of a quiet leader.
Ah okay, thought that was Peezy but wasn't sure. I always thought Farrior was a little more vocal though. Not quite Peezy but not as quiet as Troy is. I do love how even though we weren't the team that drafted him that Farrior very much became a part of this team. Hope he's enjoying retirement.

I think he got banned for life from GC.

Most of the team was more vocal than Troy. Favorite Nicknames - Page 2 1797695198

I think Farrior just wasn't the type of trash talker that guys like Peezy, Greg Lloyd, and Woodley were in comparison.
Hahaha yeah that's a good point. It's too bad that Woodley turned out to be a bust on his second contract. I really thought we had something special with him.

Tell me about it. Woodley looked like a beast until he got that second contract and decided to use the money to test the limits of Golden Corral's all-you-can-eat buffets.

Haha I think they have a picture up of him at Golden Corral now as someone that's banned from any franchise premises. Woodley, Eddie Lacy, and Mike Tolbert anyways!

You forgot LenWhale White. Favorite Nicknames - Page 2 1797695198

Nope! He works there!

Hey guys how come Ryan Clark never got a nickname?


I think it was Applesauce because whenever the guys he hit resumed consciousness and were asked if they knew what had happened to them, they normally replied "applesauce". Favorite Nicknames - Page 2 1797695198

A true class act. Favorite Nicknames - Page 2 1505004552

Love this quote from Pat Haden:

Quote :
On the sideline in the fourth quarter, USC sports information director Tim Tessalone said White got into a "very loud and heated disrespectful conversation with Pat. Pat was trying to calm him down and make sense of what he was saying" but that Haden did not have White removed from the stadium.

Assuredly, the difficulty in making sense of what he was saying stemmed from the two-fisted cramming of Hostess Ho-Hos into his cake hole.

Your nickname doesn't really apply.

In the playoffs, they were clearly a different kind of cheese. Nicknames are earned over time.

Sorry to burst your dream of labeling everything Steelers related as sucking. The defense is getting better, as is the team.

in the playoffs. Ok, i'll play along.

a back up QB in McCarran and Peyton manning who cant throw anymore BUT was still able to work his way down the field when it mattered to score the winning TD. keep in mind when Fitz fumbled we had the lead and it was on the plus side of the field.

is there hope? yes, when you have as much as we have invested in our defense the hope is they progress. I think the playoff games may build confidence. But we think drafting DBs is all of a sudden improve our defense, but if you look at past history, rookies very rarely get on the field enough in our defense to have an impact and we wind of relying on aging players until they are ready. will happen in 2016

Ok, I'll play too. Which players do you want released, traded, or not signed to new contracts that will help improve this team next year? You know, especially since they lost to the team that just won the Super Bowl in the second round of the playoffs.

I don't all warm and fuzzy knowing that we lost to the Super Bowl champ. if you notice we do that a lot. You can go back to 1972 for that.

I gave my off season ideas.

potential and slow improvements don't equal production.

our defense couldn't hold a pathetic Broncos offense from scoring a TD to win the game. but hey, get your participation trophies here guys!!!!

Way to not answer the question.

I don't look back to 1972 to evaluate the 2015 team, and to come to conclusions about what needs to be done from a talent perspective. You throw that idiotic statement out there as if it actually makes sense or somehow accurately describes people at this forum. There may be a few, but if there are it's very few.

You said, "Ok I'll play"

Then I ask one simple question to start a legit conversation, and you spew out that crap.

I gave you one last chance to get a rational point out there, and to better explain some of the absurd recommendations you have made about getting rid of certain players or your inaccurate evaluations of personnel.

I'm pretty sure I've heard the very best you have offer from a football insight perspective.

Good luck with that.
