    The 102 million dollar man of Pittsburgh has this to say about his city: "Pittsburgh is perfect for me. I dont want to go anywhere else. The first job I ever had is the one I have right now. Its working all right for me."    Well thanks Ben, its working all right for us Steeler fans too.

The Steelers looked great on Sunday. I know the Bengals were not much of an opponent but you never want a team to sneak up on you.
