LATROBE, Pa. (AP) -- Perhaps if it was as easy to make a living in track and field as it is in professional football, Brian Moorman (http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/players/5697)wouldn't be spending these later-summer weeks in a Rooney Hall dorm room at St. Vincent College.
After all, Moorman was merely an All-America selection for NCAADivision II for football. In track and field, he's a Hall of Famer.

Notes at the bottom of this article.
NOTES: Tomlin, when asked why S Troy Polamalu did not practice Sunday: ''He's got a contusion to the birth certificate. It's from the 70's; he'll be OK.'' Polamalu, in fact, was born on April 19, 1981. ... Rookie RB Le'Veon Bell and veteran DE Brett Keisel were among those back participating after missing previous days' work. ... CB Curtis Brown joined three other players at his position - presumptive starter Cortez Allen, rookie Terry Hawthorne and veteran DeMarcus Van Dyke - as being absent from practice. ... LB Larry Foote also did not practice, and QB Ben Roethlisberger left the practice field with his right knee and right elbow heavily wrapped in ice. ''Obviously we've got a number of bumps and bruises associated with this time of year,'' Tomlin said. ''We'll do the best we can to treat those guys and get themy out there as quickly as we can.''
