this was taken from today's newspaper in Pitt:
Associated Press
LATROBE, Pa. - Ten days into training camp, the Pittsburgh Steelers still list Jerome Bettis ahead of free-agent acquisition Duce Staley on the depth chart at running back. The buzz is that both will alternate, and that's all right with Staley.
The Steelers did pay Staley $4 million in free-agent bonus money last March to bolster the 31st-ranked rushing attack in the league. And they drastically reduced Bettis' salary instead of releasing him. But the numbers aren't adding up to first-team status for Staley.
"What you guys have to understand," Bettis said, "is this not going to be a competitive situation. We both are going to have to play. A lot of teams have done a two-back rotation. It's nothing new."
Two Back Rotation? I thought Staley was the guy and Bettis would get a few goal-line carries...apparently NOT!!!!
RBBC SUCKS!!!!

RBBC sucks....so does J. Bettis.
It will only be matter of time before Staley puts Bettis on the bench where he belongs, that is if an injury to Bettis does't do it first.
