Raiders QB likes hotdogs: Steelers travel to Oakland

The last time the Steelers traveled to Oakland was Oct. 29, 2006.  Big Ben was coming off a Super Bowl hangover, a near fatal motorcycle accident, an emergency appendectomy . . . and played one of the worst games of his professional career.  Roethlisberger threw four freaking interceptions that afternoon, including one that was returned 100 yards for a TD.  That day the Steeler Face shut off the TV set mid-game and dropped Big Ben from his fantasy team, much to the delight of the only other Steeler fan in the league who scooped him up immediately, tucked him away on his bench for the rest of 2006, and reaped the rewards of Roethlisberger's best statistical season ever in 2007 when he tossed 32 touchdowns against 11 interceptions. 

When Pittsburgh (1-1) takes on the Raiders (0-2) this Sunday, there is no hangover, or Big Ben dramas. Roethlisbeger is now married, a father and a college graduate.  Better yet, Big Ben is back on my fantasy team and I'm looking for him to find redemption.  I'll take the Steelers to win this one 23-17.  The Steeler Face is 0-2 in game forecasts this season and 10-8 lifetime.

Hotdog pitchman, Carson Palmer now Raiders QB . . . 

Why did it take the Bungles so long to get rid of this guy?  Seriously . . .
