See Ya Later Tone


A lot of people including myself were stunned at the initial report of the trade, but should we really be? The more people that ask me and the more I think about it, this move should have been seen coming but wasn't due to our blind faith and hope for a change in behavior. Santonio Holmes saved the Super Bowl for the Steelers and as fans, we will be eternally grateful. However, the man also had repeated off-field issues, including the latest prompting his suspension. His wake-n-bake comment on Twitter didn't help but when he told someone to kill themself, well that did it for me.
Adios Santonio, it's been real. Thanks for the good memories but not for the bad. You've been awful quiet on your normally boisterous Twitter account today. Guess you've been humbled, if that's possible? Such a shame as the talent is undeniable, yet the immaturity is unmistakable.

Same feelings about Big Ben and his off-field issues and imminent suspension??

Without question. It would not bother me to see him traded but only for the right price. the QB is far different from a WR in terms of value. I'm sick of reading and hearing about him.
