    Day six is upon us. Only 9 more days until the first preseason game.

    Here's a brief interview with Coach Haley that was just posted by Mark Kaboly.

    Re: Steelers Training Camp Day 6 7/31

    Some other notes from/about Haley from a little earlier-

    New Steelers off coordinator Todd Haley will start each practice w/run-play drills."Really, the passes are just to keep the defense honest"

    On establishing a physical run game, Haley said: "I think it's just the way I think myself and our staff believes you have to play football"

    Todd Haley:"We want to be a team that can, most importantly, run it when it has to run it and throw it when it have to throw it."

    Tood Haley, enamorred w/ Steelers WR corps: "Across the board we've got a lot of good young guys that have a very versatile skill set."

    Haley: "That's the name of the game offensively, being able to get the yards you need to get on the ground when the defense knows you're running"

    Haley, being glad he has Ben:"I've heard people say that it's a quarterback's league,& having now spent 16, 17 yrs coaching, I believe that"

    Hampton on Colon mixin things up in practice:"That's cuz I wasn't out there. There's no pushin and shovin (then)..I aint doin none of that."

    Big Ben on the rookie offensive linemen, Mike Adams and David DeCastro: "So far, so good...I haven't seen anything glaring so far.

    Ben on rookie OLs: "I havent really had a chance to sit down w/Coach Kugs yet; he usually kinda gives me the inside scoop at how they're doing."

    Big Ben on Willie Colon moving to G: "I'm excited to see in there; I've been telling him for years I think that's the spot for him.

    Has anything ever been so obvious, so agreed upon, and still taken so long to happen? It seems like smart fans, dumb fans, and players have all wanted him to play guard. It's been so clear. He's going into his 7th year!!!

    Actually, I guess not everyone has thought about this. Warren Sapp says we'll struggle at guard this year because we have new ones. Yeah, Willie Colon and David DeCastro are no match for Chris Kemoeatu and Ramon Foster...

    I doubted it would ever happen at this point.

    Sapp is always so spot on...McLendon weighs only 280, our D is old, etc, etc...

    "It's thundering here at Steelers practice, and the skies are gray ... Heavy rains are in the forecast"

    "Right now, the skies above Latrobe are 50 shades of gray. Rain appears imminent. And no indoor complex here"

    "Might be a short one today, more storm clouds up above"

    "Emmanuel Sanders back in practice realgrass. Considering Steelers two biggest division rivals play on turf, youd like to think he can run on it"

    "Paul cox's height makes him look like the Limas Sweed or Plaxico of the Steelers WR corps"

    I'd imagine it's rib protection.
