the TRIPLE DIAMOND CHRONICLES Take 4......#43 shows up to OTA's something he hasn't done in years.....BIG BEN says he and O-Coordinator HALEY on the same page

He reside in the LA Area in the off-season and never comes to OTA's and why should he? Steelers Safety and every ones All-Pro Troy Polamalu surprised everyone this week by showing up to Steelers OTA's.

Polamalu, who has an LA Based Trainer, always spends his time in LA training for the upcoming season.  With Key Vets no longer on the Roster it is only fitting for Head&Shoulders #43 to lead the young guys into what it is to be a Steeler. Troy, " It's my Time to be around the team a little more".

The influx of youth will serve the Steelers well and they always have Natural Leaders step up and show the Young Guys the Steelers Ways...the Rooney Way...and that's what makes playing for the Black and Yellow so special.  What also led to #43 in Camp early one QB Tim Tebow torched the Steelers Secondary the last game that played got Troy and that Defensive Backfield's Full Attention.

I wonder if I LIKE IKE Taylor was in the building and if he wasn't he should be the 1st in the building from that Secondary unit. Ike had a great year but boy they and we only remember the last time you stepped on the field and that was a nightmare.

Then there is Big Ben and the new Playbook installed by Offensive Coordinator Todd Haley (Dad Dick Haley was Steelers Director of Player Personnel from the 1971-1990). Born and Raised a Steeler Haley's new Offense will be a welcomed edition to a team that has a lot of weapons and what looks to be the Best O-Line Big Ben has ever played behind.

Ben hasn't been complaining about the Book its just that when you have been doing the same thing for so long Change is something that takes time. From the Looks of what Haley brought to the Cardinals and Chiefs Offensively the Steelers New look should be something for the opposition to be concerned about.
