Tomorrow the Steelers will take the field to face the New York Giants. It has been a long offseason but I am very excited at what we will be seeing tomorrow.<\/p>\n
We will be featuring quick hits every week:<\/p>\n
Quick Hits for 8-8-14:<\/p>\n
-“Mean” Joe Greene is getting his number officially retired. The only other Steeler with that honor\u00a0is Ernie Stautner. Franco Harris, Mike Webster, Jack Lambert, Jack\u00a0Hamm\u00a0and Terry Bradshaw have had their numbers taken out of circulation but they have not been officially\u00a0retired.\u00a0I have\u00a0written it several times, Greene is the\u00a0rock that the Steelers dynasty was built on. It\u00a0is an honor long deserved.<\/p>\n
-The Steelers face off against the New York Giants tomorrow, they opened last preseason with the Giants and faced the Giants in their stadium’s un-official home opener. Unfortunately, I will not be attending tomorrow, despite several offers of free tickets.<\/p>\n
-Mike Adams really needs to step it up if he wants to make this team. He is about to win the Limas Sweed Award for suckiest second round pick in the last decade. He hasn’t shown much in camp and is under fire.<\/p>\n
-Daniel McCullers DT,\u00a0is something of a\u00a0“Paul Bunyon” Legend these days.\u00a0One thing is certain he is a HUGE\u00a0and\u00a0MASSIVE human being, who dwarves some of the biggest guys on the squad. He\u00a0also has two speeds Slow and Dead. I still think\u00a0he deserves a long look.<\/p>\n
-Ryan Shazier and Jarvis Jones, almost certainly will not play this weekend.<\/p>\n
-Cornerback, Shaquille Richardson needs to step it up and make his case. He has an outside chance at starting and Saturday is his first chance to make his case.<\/p>\n
-Coach Tomlin wants the Steelers to play with urgency. After losing EVERY preseason game last year, the Steelers basically sank the season in the first four weeks.<\/p>\n
