NFL Network special on Steelers misses mark on two counts
By Len Pasquarelli
The Sports Xchange

Forget that Hall of Fame members Jack Ham and Mike Webster somehow didn’t make the cut on The NFL Network’s list of the top 10 Pittsburgh Steelers players of all-time for the Christmas Eve special.

Ignore the fact that Ernie Stautner and Jack Butler didn’t even merit a mention. Or that, we’re guessing for the sake of propriety, the filmmakers didn’t interview Dan Rooney, or Art Rooney Jr., or Art Rooney II, the former of whom has witnessed first-hand virtually every player who has ever graced the Black and Gold. Or that the top 10 Steelers were apparently the top 10 from the Super Bowl Era only.....

Once they left off Willie Gay , I was also upset with the list

[Stlrs4Life]

And no mention of Dirt Dawson either. Should of made it Top 20.

[BigNastyDefense]

Don't have NFL Network so I didn't see it.

[Texasteel]

I watched all the top 10 programs, and they missed the mark on every one of them.

[tube517]

I think NFL.com has some videos of the list.

There are way too many good players in this franchise to make a Top 10 list.

[BlastFurnace]

Brent Musgberger said it best....you could do a top 10 for both Super Bowl era's with the Steelers.

I think any top 10 that does not contain Jack Ham is bogus. No way he should have been left out of that top 10.

[Galax Steeler]

I think we all now how many good players the Steelers have had over the years and as someone stated above there was no way they could get them all on the list.

I think any top 10 that does not contain Jack Ham is bogus. No way he should have been left out of that top 10.

Damned straight. Dobre Shunka was one of the greatest OLB's (if not THE greatest) to ever play the game. Idiots. :doh:

[GoSlash27]

I say *any* Steelers top 10 list that doesn't include Jack Lambert is bogus.

[Steeldude]

they should make a top ten list of steelers who are retired and remained with the steelers their entire career.

[NJarhead]

I say *any* Steelers top 10 list that doesn't include Jack Lambert is bogus.
I think he was #3.

[zulater]

Yeah I'm not even interested in the list if Ham isn't in the top 5.

[43Hitman]

Yeah I'm not even interested in the list if Ham isn't in the top 5.

How about not even on the list. :jawdrop2:
