    I thought about all the people that wanted him after I saw that he got benched.

    I thought about all the idiotic, trolling tweets so many writers and bloggers spammed out every time he had a good day. :@

    But didn't Bell actually have a better game than him when we played them at Lambeau?

    I've seen Lacy make some good plays but nothing compared to the all around skill that Bell brings to the table and I mean nothing.

    I think that I (and others) were blinded on this issue by the Brent Mussburger perv moment with all the attention to AJ McCarren's centerfold GF while Lacy was running wild on the field in the background. Couldn't help but thinking that if we drafted the Tide's QB and RB that the GF would be seen in the stands at every Steelers game and somehow, you know, make up for our homely cheerleaders. This very MB graphically covered not only the GF but even her Cougar mom! :th jawdrop2:

    I am glad we didn't draft Lacy. I never envisioned Bell being this good and this versatile after seeing him play numerous times at MSU. I would have been happy with either one. But Bell proved hands down he is 100x the back that Lacy is. Bell is getting in better and better shape during his NFL career while Lacy is going the other direction.

    Pretty sure the "Truth Teller" was the only one hear beating that drum. Pretty clear to most others that Bell was a superior player.

    Who was the truth teller? I'm hardly in the draft section of the board.

    I dont want to say it, its like saying beetlejuice.

    But he was all over the board, not just the draft. He had an affliction for Ward though, if that helps.

    Some say he migrated to other boards to spread his truth, others say he walked off into the desert never to be heard from again. If you listen to the wind blow you'll hear faint whispers of I am the truth.

    nope never cared for Lace
    I can't buy into RB from Alabama
    they aren't terrible though
    I think Bell was the right pick although I pushed for FABULOUS GIO
