Legend? Is that you grandpa clark?lol

Tomlin has no power over the players in the off season. Zippo. Good luck in shutting down their twittering, lol. The internet sucks in a lot of ways, Twitter, Facebook etc to name a few.

Than add a dumbass with access to twitter and you get people like Clark.

Why did he have to say anything at all? It's not about being "muzzled", its just staying away from dumb comments. Here we go again....another Steeler "tweeting" unneeded remarks.

I'd prefer that Ryan just focus on the Steelers and not worry so much about what other teams are doing.

Yes, you wouldn't see this type of stuff under Cowher. Tomlin is more of a players coach, which is fine, but maybe he needs to reinforce what it means to be a Pittsburgh Steeler. This goes past the Miami Dolphins, who cares about them, it goes to discipline and professionalism which we are supposed to be all about.

I dont see the problem. Clark is actually a well spoken guy with a wit about him that I enjoy.

So, if the Dolphins organization is a gong show for some reason, a guy is gonna tweet about it at times. Sapp said that guys used to call him about how the Raiders were as a team, when they were looking at free agency and Sapp said he told them dont do it.

The only thing that I can possibly say about this one way or another is that he doesn't need to help anybody by giving advice. What do I mean by this? Well, it's pretty apparent that Clark really likes football, and enjoys giving his take on anything he might be paying attention to, or something he is, or was, involved in. He almost went to the Dullphins, so he has perspective on the situation that others may not have. So, I definitely respect his desire to be knowledgeable about the sport, and his ability to use that information to help the Steelers.

That being said......don't help anyone out! If another team has a fatal flaw, don't point it out for them.......let 'em wallow in their own stupidity! Honestly though, I really don't think this recent statement amounts to anything at all, and I seriously doubt the ownership of ANY team in the NFL would listen to anything that any player said on Twitter.

He talks to much. Keep these types of things in house, and Warren Sapp is an idiot so comparing Clark to him just shows that we should be doing something different.

Oh please. Porter ran his mouth nonstop. If Twitter were around at the time, I have no doubt he would've had diarrhea of the keyboard with it.

Thats your opinion. I find Sapp to be hilarious and entertaining. A lot of Steeler fans hate on him for saying the defense was old and slow, I get it......but he was right.

Clark is an intelligent and well spoken man. NFL player rep and family man. I havent had a problem with a thing that he has tweeted yet. I dont know that he has said anything incorrect on twitter, so cant fault a man for free speech that isnt detrimental to his own team.
