Around SBN: Steve McNair Dead - Former NFL QB Shot and Killed


The Beard

In 2005 Ben sported The Beard. What happened? We won the whole friggin cake. Then he shaved it off. Many speculated that destroying the beard could hurt the team. They were right. The beard is what makes great men gods. Chuck Norris, Mr. T., James Harrison tore his own beard off with his bare hands because it itched him once. I want to see the beard in the playoffs. I also want to see JB but that's not happening.

After our 5th ring Ben cuts it off and then this happens

so what have we learned? If Ben wants that ring he has to ditch his razor right now. Grizzley Adams didn't get to where he is today by keeping a clean cut face. Anyone know where Grizzley Adams is anyhow?

They should let JB “call it” just for old times sake. :-D

I remember prior to pit-denver game...

the nytimes ran a very in-depth article comparing the beards of ben and plummer. We all got a kick out of that seriousness of that piece.

Theory officially killed

I hate NIEL ODONNEL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My favorite memory was the next season, maybe two seasons later, when Greg Lloyd sacked Niel and knocked him out of the game with a bloody nose. I want to say it was the following season.

"Damnit mom! You almost ran over Greg Lloyd!"

at an autograph signing back in 95. He walked out in front of our minivan, and my mom almost hit him. He apologized.

Ugh

I’m going to go tie terrible towels to all my ceiling fans in my house, turn them on, and try to get some of that Pitt Mojo back. That pic of Niel just turned my team spirit flacid. Ugh,

Ben must win another superbowl if only so it is more likely we get more amusing drunk photos of him.

Flacco and Odonell

Does Joe Flacco look a lot like Neil O’donell or is it just me. Let’s just hope if we see them again this year, he can pull an O’donell and throw a couple passes to Ike

by vin2k on Jan 9, 2009 1:17 PM EST reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Agree

Both of them are pretty ugly. And a couple of passes to Ike would be a couple of passes defended. How bout picks to Troy!?!
