    Troy's induction was preordained in my opinion. Oddly enough, I believe he had some indirect assistance. Gotta thank Ed Reed because Safeties have an unthinkably, colossal difficult time getting in. Not as bad as Guards but very much up there.



    Heck, Donnie Shell JUST got in after so many years of being snubbed.

    Good!!


    Charlie did not have much to say about that. As I stated before and I will again. Troy does not need the sympathy from self righteous hypocrites.

    Congrats #43!

    I wouldn't be against retiring his number as well. Simply not going to happen but it would get my vote.

    Polamalu is more responsible for the added 2 rings than Ben Roethlisberger. Let's argue. Hell... I'm in the mood.

    Why is Steve Hutchison in but not Alan Faneca! Do All Pro nods mean nothing?! He is the only Guard in NFL History to have 6 First Team All Pro nods and not be inducted.

    Troy is in the HOF (in part, aside from his ability to disrupt every play he was on the field for) because of people like you. People who never cared about the NFL until they saw him play, or heard the hype, then became interested. He created his own fanbase, aside from Steelers fans. Outside of Ravens fans (for obvious reasons) I've never heard anyone say a bad word about him.
    I was watching a post game interview of Troy in a bar one night (in hostile territory) and a disgruntled fan piped up and said "Look at this guy, talks like Michael Jackson, plays like Michael Jordan". The whole place fell apart.

    Polamalu in his prime would be even better in today's game. Teams wouldn't be running the RPOs and exotic plays with Polamalu on the field.

    So who's going to Canton? This one is going to be crazy. Troy/Cowher.

    #43 is so deserving of this honor. A one of a kind.

    Not happy about Faneca being snubbed.

    To many Steelers, to many Steelers waaaaaaa

    Not enough Steelers...

    That's a very good point. Lamar Jackson would be tackled for loss after loss with Troy on the field.
