    That's one of the few times a move really paid off, almost EXACTLY the way you'd expect. When I heard he was going to the Steelers, I had a feeling this was a match made in heaven. They had had some good success with Barry Foster, and Bam Morris...but it's hard to beat Jerome. Great at the point of attack, but, hey, once he got into the secondary, NOBODY back there wanted to deal with him....corners, safeties, even some linebackers weren't in his size and strength category...As the game went on, people were less and less enthusiastic about getting in that big man's way!!!

    Never rooted for the Steelers (many bad memories, as a Dallas fan) but Super Bowl 40 my late wife loved the Steelers, btw, said "Well I guess for Seattle." I said "No. I'm rooting for the Steelers. I want Bettis to go out, on top!" (Baby was shocked btw). But I knew he was going to be great, when he played for ND. Well done Jerome! Big props to you & your family. I loved this video, thanks for sharing this. My grandson will get to see this.

    Watching this just makes me respect the Steelers even more. I love being a Raven fan, and alot of that comes from being able to witness / be apart of this rivalry from a fans prospective. Easily the most respect out of any rivalry that I have seen from the organization to the fans of both cities. Thanks for uploading this.

    Hampsho as a veteran, it’s their right to do as they please. The NFL never even used to have the players out on the field for the national anthem before 2009 when the DoD did their deal with the NFL. They aren’t kneeling to protest the flag.

    Dragon Ballets Yeah memory blurs with time. This episode of a Football Life sharpened those memories. I had watched him from when he came to the Steelers in 93. I had forgotten the many things about him. Kind of bittersweet though. He's been gone for almost 13 years now, and all we have are memories. Just like with Troy 3 years gone, and the Steelers of the seventies.

I've seen Bettis, Polamalu, Roethlisberger, Ward, Lewis, Suggs, Reed, Ogden, and many other players entertain and inspire their cities. What a great time to have been a fan. Congrats JB on an incredible career.
