Steelers Gab

Steelers LB Lawrence Timmons writes in his blog that he has been working out twice a day and as a result is in serious shape. “I did a lot of great things in the off-season. It hasn’t all been fun, though. I’ve been working out hard. I’m up to 248 pounds right now, no fat. [...]

There’s already a lot of talk starting about the 2009 season, and one player that may have played his last game in Black and Gold is inside linebacker Larry Foote. The former Michigan LB has a year left on his deal, but likely will get replaced in the starting lineup by former first-round pick [...]

From Lawrence Timmons Official Website:
All the football games I’ve ever played in, I’ve never experienced feelings like I had when we beat the Ravens. Looking at our crowd, seeing how they reacted to everything, it was just mind blowing. Crazy, man.
It’s great to win a big one. There’s no other feeling like it. When Troy [...]
