From yesterday morning's interview with Steelers President Art Rooney II.
On changing the procedure for how footballs to be used in games are tested and monitored:
“The one thing I would say is this rule where we use two different sets of balls is relatively new, and frankly I’m not sure why we came to this conclusion. I assume this will be something that the Competition Committee looks at. But as far as I’m concerned, I think we all ought to use the same balls and not have each side have their own footballs available to them. That’s just my view of it, but it seems to be simpler to just have one set of balls, which was the case for many years where the officials brought the balls out and everybody used the same balls. It seems like that would be an easy answer to this.”
Maybe the voice of reason, and perspective, representing a possible insight into future League action on this matter?
Yes, say what you want about the steelers, but besides Kraft, Art Rooney is good owner with a good head on his shoulders.
