It 's week 13 in the NFL and I'm bummed that Big Ben has been ruled out for Sundays' game against Baltimore. Call it wishful thinking, especially given Ben's propensity for exaggerating the severity of some of his injuries, but I was hoping that he would see some playing time this week against Pittsburgh's hated AFC North rival.
In a year where the Pittsburgh Steelers are celebrating the 40th anniversary of the Immaculate Reception, an early return by Roethlisberger's would have been the Christmas miracle of 2012. Especially THIS week. Instead, Pittsburgh Armchair Quarterbacks and fans of the Black & Gold will be watching Uncle Charlie and the Fumbling Wilburys instead.

I'm going to watch the train wreck in Baltimore, that is a given. Still, with unseasonably warm temperatures this weekend, I'm gonna be feelin' a little Outerbanxious too. (Had a great vacation in the Outer Banks this summer...).
