Though there might not be much that can take the sting out of losing the Super Bowl to the Green Bay Packers, Steelers greatTroy Polamalu can take satisfaction in knowing that the rest of the country loves him.
Still there are some that question if Polamalu is worthy of having the top jersey in the game.
For those that question have never watched him play.
We often get obsessed with quarterbacks and running backs. We love the skill position and guys who put points on the board as their primary job, but there is something to be said for a safety that plays the position at as high a level as anyone.
Polamalu is a gamer in every sense of the word and watching him play is truly a treat. So don’t think for a second that he isn’t deserving of such an honor. While I believe that this is the last year that he will get the honor, it’s one that he is more than entitled to.
Or at least obsessed Steelers fans do.
It was reported that last year Polamalu’s No. 43 jersey was the number one selling jersey in the country. It’s not surprising considering his jersey was in the top ten three of the last four years and he’s a member of a team that has one of the biggest, and most loyal fan bases in all of the NFL.
