And two, Porter had some career here. I know for a fact he wasn't the most outrageous character in Steelers history. Ernie Holmes has the edge on him there in my mind. But I'm not sure the franchise has had a player with a kinder heart or who was a better teammate.

I miss Joey. I'm thrilled he wants to retire a Steeler. Think he can still play?

I will never forget those words that he uttered before the Indy Game in 06. "They are soft". I wasnt feeling too confident about that game , I can guarantee you he made everyone angry and confident after stepping up. No other perfect scenario of talking the talk and walking the walk. A turning point in that playoff run and in our franchise.
