A few weeks back when Ben Roethlisberger was forced out of the Steelers lineup with concussion symptoms, his top receiver, Hines Ward questioned Ben’s toughness.
“I’ve lied to a couple of doctors saying ‘I’m straight, I feel good,’ when I knew I’m really not straight. But I don’t think guys really think about the future when they’re playing currently in the NFL,” Ward told Bob Costas, “Trust me, the players, they wanna go out there because these games, you don’t get back. You’re never gonna get this Baltimore-Pittsburgh game back.”
Fast forward to this week and coach Mike Tomlin’s announcement today that Ward is “very questionable” to play this Sunday.
I thought every game mattered Hines….

Apparently Hines Ward doesn’t have enough to do breaking people’s jaws and catching passes from every football commentator’s dream man “Ben,” that he needs to take over the forecasting duties on local television. But then again, it’s not as though there is that much to actually do in Pittsburgh so, I guess this makes sense. As for his actual weather delivery skills, I’m not impressed, he’s too casual. This is the 5 day forecast! PEOPLE DEPEND ON THIS HINES! And c’mon, you can’t even wear a suit? I’m disappointed. After the jump see Hines’ foray into a new career.
