That is really good, This thread has brought to my attention artists and music I didn't know and likely wouldn't otherwise.

Why me Lord by Kris Kristofferson is a remarkable song. Considering his hellraiser background of years ago it is quite a departure for him. He tells the story behind it as well as perform it.

Can't have a music thread without the Chairman of the Board.

Bluegrass is probably my favorite music. One of the masters was the late great Mr. Earl Scruggs.

It is a great story. Living here sometimes you tend to take it for granted.

Been a Bocephus fan for as long as I can remember. He's got a new album coming out. Heard some of the songs on a special on satellite radio this morning. It's going to be really good.

Question now is what about Ben and his shoulder. If he can't be effective, steelers are in deep trouble.

porter could be fined too but jones still shoved an official which is automatically a flag. I think the officials wanted to let them play but we're basically forced to penalize them. Porter may have known he could stir it up a little. Oh no doubt. That was exactly what he was doing. NFL should eject and/or suspend coaches just like they do players for that.

I didn't really care who won. I guess I leaned towards Pittsburgh. They got away with a couple of things. Porter had no business being out on the field like that. He's not the position coach for Brown and he's not a trainer. Word is that he'll be fined by the league foe that. Burfict will likely face a suspension at the beginning of next season. I don't know what his problem is but he better get control or he'll be out of the league.

Unless the Steelers just give it away, they are on their way to the next round. McCarron isn't good enough to pull it off without major assistance from the other team.

Steelers should win this one.

There's still home field to be determined. I think they might hold some players out who have been hampered by injury.

New England should take care of the jets in the last game.

Sammie is someone the Steelers like. He has a future there. He's just got to be a little patient.

If Jones can hold the fort against KC then you should be in good shape for the remainder of the season.

no he didn't play. He was inactive and it appears, at this point, his playing time will be limited this year. http://www.steelersd...nactive-status/ Interesting. A comment below the article you linked mentioned that it was an undrafted free agent which earned the 4th receiver spot over Coates. And to add insult to that, the undrafted free agent is a former qb that is just as raw at WR than Coates is. That is not good. Sammie may not play a lot but he has a spot with the Steelers. His chance will come at some point.

If they get Cole Hammels then they become a legit threat in the playoffs. Doesn't look like that will work out. Phillies want more than NY is willing to part with.

With pitchers going from really good to just falling off happens a lot. It doesn't take much to lose that edge.

I don't look for this to hold up but it would be funny if this bunch ended up in the playoffs or at least were in contention throughout the season.

Long way to September. Slow start isn't the end of the world. Just don't dig too much of a hole.

What do they have in the farm system? Any promising players there?

Got a feeling we may regret this one later on I'd he doesn't fit the scheme then he's better off somewhere else. Better for him to go where he fits better. Good luck to him.

Good day today for John Smoltz as he was voted into the HOF. http://mweb.cbssports.com/mlb/eye-on-baseball/24939150/baseball-hall-of-fame-johnson-martinez-smoltz-biggio-elected

Unfreakingbelievable.
