    I really have mixed feelings about Faneca. I thought he was great, but I really didn't like the ending here for the Steelers. I bet he didn't either. There were a few things he said at his end here ....I wasn't thrilled with. Also . Don't have a cow man. It's just my opinion. Doesn't make it right , or wrong.

    I remember when TM got hurt, and some reporter asked him abt Ben playing QB the rest of the season, he didnt seem to happy abt it.,, Saying somthing like" this game is too fast to rely on a rookie QB leading the team" not exact quote but somthing to that effect ... lol

    Reporter asked if he was excited for Ben to start and he said no, lol.

    "Exciting?" Faneca replied to a question in an are-you-crazy kind of way. "No, it's not exciting. Do you want to go work with some little young kid who's just out of college?"

    Here’s the whole article. Put it in context with everything else he said and it’s not bad but that’s quote that people took and ran with.

    We got tickets for only ceremony, museum pass, and Hof Game. Tickets were pretty affordable, but he got a hotel about an hour away to save money.
