Steelers All Time Leading Receiver Hines Ward Has Retired

Hines Ward’s constant smile while wearing the black and gold has been a staple in Pittsburgh for the last 14 years. After today Pittsburgh fans will not be able to see it again, at least on the field. As a Miami fan, I can say without thinking, that just to watch the way Hines Ward carried himself on the field, the enormous smile on his face after every catch, even when the Steelers are beating my Dolphins, it has always been difficult to not like this man; also, to respect him very much. I want to wish you well, Hines, as you give up the game which you so obviously love, in an organization as prestigious as the Pittsburgh Steelers. Ward will remain a Steeler, indefinitely; leading all others in yardage, with over 12,000 career yards, two Super Bowl Championships, Superbowl 40 MVP, and appearance in the Pro Bowl, and one HELL of a blocker. A very interesting third round pick if you think about it. Thanks for all of the memories, and God Bless You.

GOD BLESS YOU ALL!
