THAT dance gets your goat? I have to say that is probably the least offensive celebration of all celebration "dances" or acts. Yes, Barry Sanders set the standard for class, but Bettis ranks right up there.
He never bad-mouths anyone, he never plays dirty, he never complained about his role in the Steelers offense, he never questioned the coaches, he took a pay-cut to stay with the Steelers, every Steeler counts him as a leader on the field and in the locker room. Zeroue, Haynes, Staley, and Parker have all commented on how much he has helped them develop, and his valuable role as a mentor to them. He is very active in both national and local charity work--and he has never been in trouble off the field. He is the epitome of a "team player".
I just hope he gets a Super Bowl ring for his HOF career. He deserves it.
