Pittsburgh Steelers starting running back, Willie Parker has great respect for veteran Jerome Bettis "the Bus". So much that he said Thursday that he wouldn't care if Bettis started Super Bowl XL ahead of him. In fact, there was another game this season when Parker asked coach Cowher to start "the Bus" as a tribute to the NFL's 5th all-time rusher. I know that Steeler fans and the city of Detroit would love to see #36 step onto the field with the Steelers offense to open Super Bowl XL. Can you imagine how loud that crowd would get when they saw the Detroit native's massive frame take his stance behind Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger?
Super Bowl XL is the climax to one of the best sports stories ever. "The Bus" will probably not be back in uniform next season, so the football world will watch a piece of NFL history unfold. Get the rest of the story. That's Pittsburgh Steelers news. Listen to what Hines Ward has to say about who should start. Play Audio
