  According to the Pittsburgh Tribune—Review, the Georgia Bureau of Investigations has told Edward Garland, the attorney for Ben Roethlisberger, that a DNA sample from the Steelers quarterback would not be necessary.

Tom Brady or Peyton Manning: Who Would You Take For Your Team?

Posted: 22nd March 2010 by Nick Signorelli in NFL
Tom Brady—Peyton Manning. Peyton Manning—Tom Brady. The argument has raged for the better part of the last decade: who is better, Manning or Brady? At the end of the 2010 season, both Manning and Brady will be unrestricted free agents.  The Colts and Patriots have stated that both players will be back with their respective teams.  But for arguments' sake, let's say that the Colts and Patriots were to decide they were going to ...

Posted: 12th March 2010 by Nick Signorelli in NFL
What a difference a year makes. It was only one year ago that many of us members of Steeler Nation were proclaiming that the Steelers were a dynasty in the making.
