    Y'all think we will see what we have or trade for for someone? Or wait until training camp is over?

    Me personally I don't see how Leal will be anything more than decent. He is so slow.

    It’s a game to you, you’re so worked up over a game.

    This is why fanatics is short for fans.

    Guy lost his kid brother and by the way the person who killed him has never been found. Not only did the pos not stop to help he fled and is living his life free of consequences. But sure, Tuitt didn’t keep you in the loop, how horrible.

    It’s fine to be disappointed he didn’t come back, even Cam was disappointed but some of the things being said in this thread are completely classless.

    I said months ago he lost his passion to play, he has probably been hoping the fire would come back, it obviously didn’t. That’s why the 11th hour decision.

    I'm not worked up at all. You are correct. To me it is a game. To someone who is being paid, it is a profession.

    Your last sentence, you are putting words in my mouth. There is not a single person in this thread that has demanded some sort of personal explanation from Tuitt.

    Several other people have expressed the same.

    I don’t want to fight with you TDFW but you are better than that comment you made that I originally responded to.

    7 pages of posts on an old player who was injured last year and decided to retire

    Slow time of year

    :shrug:

    No worries and no fight. We disagree. It happens quite often between the two of us. :drinks:

    What you highlighted in red and what you accused me of saying are nowhere near the same thing. I never said anything about Tuitt owing me an explanation.

    I initially supported Tuitt's absence. It sucked for the team, but I think we all understood. I do not support Tuitt missing an entire season and then dragging this thing out until the following years OTA's. I 'm sorry. I just don't.

    As for the comment, yes it was harsh, but I will stand by it. All I keep reading about in this thread is how Tuitt doesn't owe the fans anything. Well if that is the case, then the fans certainly don't owe him anything either. It goes both ways.

    I get that logic, but he owed the team better than that. He owed them a decision at the beginning of free agency, or at least by the draft.

    News flash, without people spending money nothing would exist but like it or not, your dollars don’t go very far in how the NFL makes its money.

    But I understand you want to simplify it to make your point.

    ? His Draft profile said his two biggest strengths are his explosiveness and his lateral movement

    He is too slow to play outside linebacker, but for a defensive end? He isn't chasing Lamar Jackson down from behind, but he isn't slow.

    I knew he was tad undersized, like a DL Tweener... Didn't know about the slow part...

    * On another note....Isiah Loudermilk has gained 25 pounds , and is currently at #310 ,up from #285...Saying he looks " great " at the weight also...really bulked up!

    It is pretty simple. Fans drive every piece of the pie on that chart.
    I always laugh when people say things like “ I don’t buy anything NFL” “I only watch Steelers games” “ The NFL doesn’t make money off of me”
    A persons viewership has value. And while a person may not be pulling money directly out of their pockets and handing it to the NFL their viewership directly makes money for the NFL.
    It’s a tough pill for some to swallow.

    I think the Steelers FO knew a lot sooner that this would be the end product and Tuitt would not be with the team this year

    The Steelers will be fine
