Little ben's thumb has a boo-boo

[kingwilly]

First ben's ankle hurts, now his thumb hurts..after Sunday I'm hoping his pride hurts most of all.

Either this is:

a) a weak attempt to psyche out the Bengals

Ben has actual issues

c) sensing their imminent demise, Pitt is already laying the groundwork for excuses as to why they got hammered.

No matter what the truth is, come Sunday, the battle for the AFC North will see those dressed in orange and black finally take control of their destiny! WHOOOOOO-FREAKING-DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kinda like the onsides kick Monday night. When a person is desperate, they'll try anything, including feigning injury.

Yeah his thumb is hurting and was/is in a protective splint of some sort so he can throw right now.

If Ben's thumb has a boo-boo, then he need look no further than a common medicine cabinet.

ben will play but will be ineffective. the steeler oline has been beaten up recently and i see no reason for that to change. if im marvin i say pollack go get him every play.
