Trouble in Steel Town :D

**HoustonRaven** · 01-25-2008, 05:47 PM

So ESPN is reporting that Not-so-Big-Ben wants a taller receiver, like he had with Plax, for those times when he is in trouble inside the red zone.

Well, Ward didnt take too kindly to those words and called out Ben publicly.

Here is the article .... God, I wish there was a snickering emoticon right now!

Interesting....anytime there's controversy in Steel Town, makes me smile. Personally, there is NO other receiver in the league that I would covet more than Hines Ward. Numero UNO in my book!!

I'm always going to ask for a tall receiver," Roethlisberger said in an interview with the Post-Gazette. "That's just me. Our receivers are unbelievable, but our tallest guy might be Hines. Or Santonio [Holmes]. Hines is going to say he's 6 foot, but he's 5-11."

Hines says he's 6 foot, but Ben thinks he's only 5'11"?

Yet another example of something I have thought for some time, that Roethlisberger has the IQ of a carrot.

I'm not just saying this because he's a Squeeler, but seriously, this guy seems to be dumber than a tree stump. When he had his cycle accident without wearing a helmet, he told everyone that in PA that's legal. Well, actually it's only allowed if you have met certain guidelines, none of which he met, which resulted in him being fined at least twice. Then, even after being fined, he still said he didn't break any laws! Uh, Ben, why do you think you got fined if it was legal?

Sounds like Ray asking for bigger guys to play in front of him.

**ladyraven127** · 01-27-2008, 05:17 PM

Again thanks for the

**AZRAVEN** · 01-27-2008, 10:06 PM

Maybe, but he plays hard too. He actually gets YAC, what a concept.

That was my first thought. Completely inappropriate. When it happened here it was

Is Travis Taylor available?

**Ravenswarrior19** · 01-28-2008, 10:00 AM

I strongly recommend they go after Clarence Moore. He's really tall, and ... and... that's really all I can say.

Travis is only 6' as well. Forget that fact that he could only catch passes when he had to lay out for them

**ravenjoe** · 01-28-2008, 11:41 AM

You think if we still had 'ol alligator arms on our team, Pittsburgh would consider a Clarence for Hines trade....nah.

Fun times.

I always thought he was at his best when laying out; the worst thing any qb ever did was hit him in stride.

Can't hit every draft pick I guess.
