That was the night he was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. May 21, 2009? Of course. The Steelers visited the White House and President Barack Obama singled him out by name. Feb. 1, 2009?

Farriors slow and this should be his last year. Foote is a good backup, period. We need a young player to step in!

Foote is a 2 down linebacker already. We need some youth and speed in the position.

I'm liking what I'm seeing from Stevenson Sylvester so far on Special Teams. Could he be our next ILB?

I agree. I liked what I saw of him in preseason too. He looks like he's a player.

I agree too, from what I've seen.
