Team Captains

[ETL]

Just announced - Roethlisberger, Ward, Farrior and Arnaz Battle.

No dis on Heath but I'm glad Ben has earned back the respect of his fellow players to be elected captain again.

I hope Battle does something to earn both his roster spot, and the title of captain!

I am sure he has earned the captain title where it really matters, with the other players since they are the people who elect the captains. He does a good job on specials, and thats why he is still a Steeler.

Battle . . . interesting.

I keep hearing Battle does amazing on ST but he has never led the team in any ST stat

2010- Anthony Madison
2009- Keyaron Fox
2008- Patrick Bailey

And we have still given up plenty of return touchdowns...if he's so good why hasn't a difference been made?

Either way the players voted, so congrats.

Farrior?????? Over Gay?????? C'mon man, what the hell is in Pittsburghs water supply? Next thing you know Woodley will be getting a 6 year $61.5 million contract.
