there is a differnce between a hammy acting up and taking most of the reps at qb all week while telling the coaches you feel great then telling the doctor that you are having headaches.

Looks like it's 50/50 on here on who the true baby is. Honestly neither one should have played or should play. Id rather have Hines for GB. They are both warriors.

You guys are absolutely ridiculous for still talking about this. Regardless of who's side you're taking, you're going to alienate one of the best players on this team because of some stupid comments RODNEY FREAKIN HARRISON made after a Hines Ward interview?!?!?!? I agree Hines should've kept his mouth shut but Rodney Harrison is the reason people are making such a big fuss about this whole mess.

Also, why didn't Ben get bashed after Super Bowl XL? He publicly lobbied to keep Plaxico and to draft a tall receiver after the Steelers let him go. He went on to win the Super Bowl with two of the shortest receivers in recent history and nobody jumped down his throat and tried making him eat his words.

So you're saying Hines should play in this game just to show how tough he is? So what happens when we beat the Browns and show a sign of life in the Wildcard race but are without our leading and most clutch receiver for the rest of the year because he played with a bad hamstring? All to shut a couple of disloyal panic-induced fans up? No thanks. I'd rather get everyone healthy, beat the Browns and have our best team moving forward.

Anyway, here's to making the trip with 30,000 Steelers faithful on Thursday. Let's invade Cleveland and smack them in the mouth.

If any player is hurt and shouldn't go, they shouldn't play. Having Hines out there with a hamstring injury IMO is silly. He would be a detrement to the team if he is not 100%. Secondly when we beat the Browns we will need a healthy Hines the rest of the way.

STFU! both guys are tough, this team would be nothing without these guys.
Just move on and led this be the past just like they did...

we got much more serious things to worry about!

Regardless of the fact, Rodney Harrison is a ****ing tool who shouldn't have a job on Sunday nights. He knows nothing, and has ****ing peanuts for brains. Someones gotta tell that washed up piece of shit to shut the **** up. I can't stand him.

You have to wonder how effective Hines will be with that hamstring injury? This could be Sweed's chance to show he actually has something. I know how this sounds but, man we are the walking wounded. Save Hines for GB& rematch with the rats.
