Steelers release Kemoeatu and Smith

As the Steelers continue to shave down to meet the cap in less than two weeks, two more long time Steelers bit the dust today.  As sad as it is, I don’t believe many are surprised about the Steelers parting ways with Aaron Smith.  Though one of the best Defensive ends ever he has been plagued with injuries the last three years.   And being 35 years of age doesn’t...

Chris Kemoeatu Named a Pro Bowl Alternate. Now Ike Taylor Has Beef

Chris Kemoeatu was named a third alternate at guard for the 2012 Pro Bowl.  This just shows that they might as well just let the fans vote because the players are just as bad.  Chris Kemoeatu does not even start for his own team.  He was benched and only gets in when other guys get hurt.  For a player or coach to vote him good enough to be an alternate is just pathetic.
