Former Steeler Rashard Mendenhall takes to Twitter with yet another tirade
Few former Pittsburgh Steelers do less for themselves in the eyes of fans than former running back Rashard Mendenhall. The grudge he carries for his former team, especially his former quarterback and the fans is heavy and seems to take over his personality at times.
Mendenhall’s latest Twitter rant centers on the discontent Steelers fans have with head coach Mike Tomlin and his ongoing hatred for former Steelers quarterback and future Hall of Famer Ben Roethlisberger.
I’m sick of average white guys commenting on football. Y’all not even good at football. Can we please replace the Pro Bowl with an All-Black vs. All-White bowl so these cats can stop trying to teach me who’s good at football. I’m better than ur goat.

Mendenhall seems to think the reason the Steelers didn’t win in the playoffs was because of Roethlisberger and nothing else but this level of pettiness is nothing new for him. And to make it about black and white is a new low for him.
Mendenhall has a somewhat successful NFL career after a stellar career at the University of Illinois. I’m sure there are many topics related to football and life he would be highly qualified to talk about.
But unfortunately, he fumbled this one.
