  • New England Patriots Vs. Pittsburgh Steelers: the More Things Change, the More They Stay the Same

    New England Patriots Vs. Pittsburgh Steelers: the More Things Change, the More They Stay the Same

    New England Patriots vs. Pittsburgh Steelers: The More Things Change, The More They Stay The Same. Author : Robert D. Cobb There is an old French proverb, "plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose" that roughly translated means, the more things change, the more they stay the same. While Jean-Baptiste Alphonse Karr didn’t exactly have in mind that over 150-plus years later that his famous epigram from his journal Les Guepes, would become so literal, it seems to apply more literally whenever it comes to the New England Patriots vexing mastery over the Pittsburgh Steelers. 1 / 2 Whether it is in the hearty confines of Foxborough or the Confluence of the Three Rivers of the Steel City, the New England Patriots have the Pittsburgh Steelers number. For all of their six Lombardi trophies, 23 members in the Hall of Fame and perhaps the largest fan following in the NFL in Steeler Nation, whenever the mighty six-time Super Bowl champions see the Patriots red, white and blue, they immediately turn to rust. While they have been owned by the Rooney family since 1933, on the field, they have been owned by Tom Brady since 2002. Whether coming in to relive an injured Drew Bledsoe in the ‘01 AFC Championship Game or treating Antony Smith like a junior varsity scrub to the tune of a long pair of touchdown passes via Randy Moss in a 34-13 blowout, Brady is the ultimate arch-nemesis that Pittsburgh cannot seem to solve. Not even their long-time and ancient rivals from the past in the Oakland Raiders, Dallas Cowboys or even their fellow division blood rival in the Baltimore Ravens seem to amass the amount of dread, revile and utter disdain and fear and loathing that New England does.

    Noted Surgeon Dr. James Andrews Wants Your Young Athlete to Stay Healthy by Playing Less

    Page 1 of 8 Noted surgeon Dr. James Andrews wants your young athlete to stay healthy by playing less By Dennis Manoloff, The Plain Dealer on February 27, 2013 at 5:00 AM, updated February 27, 2013 at 9:39 AM CLEVELAND, Ohio -- James Andrews has seen enough. Enough of coaches who mean well and try hard, but who really don't know what they need to know. Enough of parents who think their son or daughter is the next superstar athlete and must be pushed and pushed and pushed. Enough of youngsters who are forced to visit him and his colleagues around the nation. Andrews has become so alarmed that he is issuing written and verbal warnings to anyone willing to read or listen. Why should the public care what Andrews thinks? Because when the "Dr." is placed in front of his name, he becomes a world-renowned orthopedic surgeon. Andrews, who has practiced medicine for nearly 40 years, is most famous for his ability to put professional athletes back together. These athletes -- notably, a who's who of quarterbacks -- have signed contracts for a combined total well north of $1 billion after his surgeries. In 2010, Andrews was the only doctor to be named among the top 40 most powerful people in the NFL by Sports Illustrated. Andrews' specialties are knees, elbows and shoulders. One of his recent patients was Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III, who needed the anterior cruciate ligament and lateral collateral ligament repaired in his right knee. http://blog.cleveland.com/dman/print.html?entry=/2013/02/noted_surgeon_dr_james_andrews.html 2/27/2013 Page 2 of 8 The work on athletes, while important, isn't the reason Andrews collaborated with Don Yaeger, a former associate editor at Sports Illustrated, to write, "Any Given Monday: Sports Injuries and How to Prevent Them, for Athletes, Parents and Coaches -- Based on My Life in Sports Medicine." He felt compelled to write the book, then talk about it, out of fear for the younger generation.
