Marvel Smith was busted smoking weed in his St Vincent's dorm room. I've heard reports that Bell didn't and Blount did make the trip to Philly.

I must add that listening to TFMS discuss this is pretty funny.

Philly is a pretty big drug town, so I'm surprised that they didn't want to make the trip.

Bell and Blount were stopped on McKnight road near the Red Lobster. A motorcycle cop smelled a strong odor of marijuana, and figured out it was coming from the player's black camero. That is a high traffic area, and must have been a lot of smoke to pick out their individual car.

if they were rolling with 20 grams, i imagine they had probably smoked the rest of the ounce they bought between where they got it and where they got busted which is a fair amount of the devils lettuce in a short period of time

I think I understand the reason the Patriots cut Blount loose.

SiriusXM's morning football show (Opening Drive) basically dedicated at least the first two hours to this, including a nice Bad Boys/Cops Theme Song mashed up with soundbites from Tomlin/Bell/Blount.

It's understood that they're just as dumb as the rest of the league.

So... for the "out of the loop"ers like myself, anyone got a sentence or two good recap of camp so far and how the Steelers look? I only have the benefit of having seen a couple highlights, some pesky little thing called a baseball game (Hello, Watson, I'd like that 8th inning back please) had me miss the last one, and the first one wasn't on in our neck of the woods.

Sort of related to relantel's question, does anybody know of a good blog/message board for Steelers stuff? I used to go to Behindthesteelcurtain to get posters' insights on training camp, pre-season games, evaluation of latest roster moves, etc., but I feel like their discussion has gotten to be so homeric (not in the sense of epic Greek poetry, but being really skewed in the Steelers favor) that I don't trust them as a good source anymore. I feel like the discussion of the Pens on here is quite even-handed and sensible by comparison.

Check out Steel City Insider, not necessarily the message boards, but the "pay" section and some of their stuff.

I really like Jim Wexell's info and he seems to have a good realtionship with the players. I follow him on Twitter too.
