The Big 33 Classic has had at least one of its former players in every Super Bowl, and the Pennsylvania-based all-star game is well represented in the NFL's crowning event this year as well. Here is a look at the players, coaches and front-office personnel on the Steelers and Cardinals who played in the Big 33.SteelersQB, Ben Roethlisberger, Ohio, 2000TE/FB, Sean McHugh, Ohio, 2000DT, Scott Paxson, Pennsylvania, 2001S, *Ryan Mundy, Pennsylvania, 2003Pro scouting coordinator, Doug Whaley, Pennsylvania, 1990*-Member of Steelers practice squadCardinalsLB, Victor Hobson, Pennsylvania, 1998WR, Steve Breaston, Pennsylvania, 2002Assistant head coach/offensive line, Russ Grimm, Pennsylvania, 1977Defensive backs coach, Teryl Austin, Pennsylvania, 1983Director of player personnel, Steve Keim, Pennsylvania, 1991Source and the rest of the story

I think the guy that recorded that video has been in the Sun since 1987!?!

There is a multi page thread about it, join in

KD , can you tell us what you know about what the future of JAR is as it pertains to the basketball team?

4 minute video. Seems to be a good runner. Holds the ball high.Nicely makes his choice, againESPN grading system gives him a 71Was Columbus State looking for an Ohio guy to back up their Pittsburgh QB?

I'll leave that up to my attorney."As your attorney, I advise you to take a hit out of the little brown bottle in my shaving kit. You won't need much, just a tiny taste."

Why do you say that? Do explain! Maybe this: Jan 15th : Jan 19th ? Just a guess.

Almost rivals the "name dropping" posts. I do know a guy that has a lot of experience coaching basketball and he thought it was a good idea to burn the red shirt. I'll go with what he says, but only because he has more experience coaching MAC basketball than me.After I see the kid play a few games I'll have an opinion on if he is making a difference or not.I guess if you think we have no chance to win "A MAC Tourney championship THIS YEAR" you don't like wasting the rs, but I agree with Z-Pouch, we have a chance, and like CK says, go for it! I would guess that's what KD thinks too.

I thought about the Shanahan / JD connection the other way.Shanahan comes back to the NFL next year, most of his ex staff will be hired somewhere else.Will he give JD an interview for OC or WR coach? Is JD happy in college? Just a thought.

What team will improve our chances to win the MAC tournament? That's the team I want.

I will be interested in watching the Huskies next season for that very reason.

Good luck to him. Super nice guy.

Cventinovic is too talented not to see the floor. It's hard to bench production.Nik is an intelligent kid, and to me, it shows when he touches the ball. I hope I'm not jinxing the kid by typing all of this praise from a handful of hours that I've seen him play.I'm still waiting for Conyers to impress me. I can only judge by what I see at the games live.He always seems like he is out there thinking. Like he doesn't know what to do. Maybe it willclick for him soon (we all hope).

I wonder if Jose or the coaches ever contemplated a switch to defense when it was realized he was unhappy?Good luck to you Jose.I'm sure your stats from Hofstra will be posted here, so you better come through with that prediction.

Thanks for the update. I was not able to listen, but would still be interested in listening to some kind of podcast.Sounds like I need to start working on the Nik Fan Club name and graphic.PS One of my favorite things about KD is the way he answer's questions. I really appreciate his honesty.

Top 10 reasons attendance is down.10. They don't play that cool "thriller" video anymore09. No more Jamie Bosley08. Zippy doesn't jump off a trampoline and dunk at halftime07. LeBron doesn't attend games anymore06. They don't shut the lights off and blow smoke during the introductions05. The Big Ten Network is replaying Ohio State vs Houston Baptist that night04. They refuse to play 'The Humpty Dance'03. The new coach doesn't smack the floor and yell enough02. I'll miss the chat on ZipsNation and the numberone reasonattendance is down....01. KD never puts Zeke Marshall in

Nice. That made me laugh.I like the Serbian angle for the fan club, but damn you for putting that crap song, Oh Niki, in my head.

There goes the Cavs championship. Anybody to put that uniform on has been jinxed.

Can you guys remember a TE at Akron that put up offensive numbers?Is it possible that the spread offense makes it hard for a TE to put up good numbers?

No, I am with you. I think I'm his #1 fan. Wanna start a fan club? We need a catchy name. I'm taking suggestions.

Nice call on the McKnights, very productive minutes! Conyers stats showed that the closest he got last night was:Time for him to step it up, or hit the pine. Two turnovers and two assists is now considered the "dubble bubble"

Coach Dambrot with our offensive struggles in the paint will Nikola Cvetinovic's playing time increase as the season progresses?For the love of gawd, he speaks five languages! Make sure you mention the five languages.Did somebody from the Stern Show interview Nik? What a great job of answering the interviewer. I'm a big fan of Nik.

This graphic has not been released due to the loss the football team incurred. Stay tuned...I might just have to save it for the MAC tourney.

I hope we win so I can use my graphic I made for football season. 67-64. The Bulls rattle out a three at the buzzer.
