Offensive line coach Larry Zierlein is the formerly anonymnous assistant coach responsible for accidentally forwarding a pornographic e-mail to dozens of league employees, including every GM and NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.

Say what you will about the decline of the Steelers o-line under Russ Grimm's tenure - he hasn't done anything this stupid. First one of our practice-squad guys is outed as a pimp, and now one of our assistants email-blasts porn throughout the league. What's next - is Ben Roethlisberger going to be presenting at the Adult Video Awards?

Zierlein will probably get a fine from the league, but I doubt that anything harsh is in store for him. Most of the folks who got his message probably weren't very pleased, but tt's not like he failed a drug test.

Update: Zierlein and director of personnel Kevin Whaley, who sent the email to Zierlein, have both been let off with a wrist-slap. I expected a fine, at the least.
