I have a feeling that he’s past that point in his career, if he ever even thought that, b/c I can’t see “a real football guy from Pittsburgh” ever having GI problems on the sidelines.

Could not agree more. I like the way you use precedent as a positive step forward. I am very excited this for this season. Not like 96 or 97 excited- but close.

Like calling someone a “New York City point guard” it evokes a certain mentality and approach to the game that encouraged me at the time and I think has proven out to be correct. MM’s calling card seems to be a tough, smart, unselfish, fundamentally sound and quietly confident brand of football.
Sure it’s early, but what else is sports rooting for if not overreacting and coming to long-term conclusions from short-term trends? I compared Jeremichael Finley to A. Gates and T. Gonzalez based on one 3 minute youtube highlight real why can’t I think that MM is the next great coach based on 2 seasons?
