    Ben Roethlisberger broken thumb expected to start sun at KC
    Jay Cutler broken thumb out 6-8 weeks
    Super Happy #7 is ours!

    Not all breaks are equal.

    Be thankful for that. Ben's doesn't need surgery. If it did, we'd be SOL.

    I'm glad you posted about this because me and a couple guys at work were talking about this today. I feel like anytime I see another QB get hurt or leave a game I call them out for not being tough. But one of the guys made a good point on how most Steeler fans are because we have a super human QB. Ben plays through so much and I am so grateful for that.

    Ben has his faults but being a pussy isn't one of them. Sorry, can we say pussy on this board?

    You just did. Twice. (Actually, 4 times since I quoted you. :p )

    I seem to remember a time not so long ago where everyone talked about Ben being a drama queen. I had a 104 fever, my toes were broke, etc. etc....

    Odd how perceptions change as people get more info. :cool:

    So you're just as guilty as I am so we'll both be banned together! lol Yes, Ben had a rep earlier in his career as a drama queen. Seems to me it had something to do with his throwing hand or something along those lines. Should he wear a glove or not? It was always something. Now he's like this super human indestructo man that breaks bones and gets bloodied from getting smashed in the mouth and just keeps going and going like the energizer bunny. So he's actually more like a bunny than a pussy. :mrgreen:

    The toes being broken required surgery, but I think Cowher didn't like him telling everyone about it.

    Well, I think the word is alright if it's like 'hey, what a sissy' or 'what a wuss'. Using the word in another context would likely not be ok. ;)

    No matter how you slice it, Ben is one tough SOB. I cringe every time I think about him having a broken thumb though.
