The fan voting for the 2010 Pro Bowl ended December 21. Thank you all for voting and for spreading the word to your friends, family...and strangers to vote! I will update when voting begins for the 2011 Pro Bowl. Worth repeatingCoach Mike Tomlin talks about signing Keisel to a new deal-2009. “He’s ridiculously competitive. He has a mean streak, something that is necessary to play the position that he plays,” Tomlin said. “He takes a great deal of pride in his work and he doesn’t care who gets the credit. A lot of times when you play defensive end in our scheme, it’s a lot of dirty work, occupying blocks, playing with great pad level, creating opportunities for others, such as James Harrison and LaMarr Woodley, who benefit greatly from the work of our ends. He embraces all of that and does it with a smile on his face. He embodies the things that we value as a Pittsburgh Steeler.” NFL analyst Troy Aikman talks about Keisel:
"Brett Keisel, in my opinion, is really one of the great players in this league. I mean, this is a guy, an emotional leader, who missed some time, and him being back has really given this defense a lift. He's not a guy who you see with alot of sacks, but someone who is very disruptive. He runs sideline to sideline; an extremely versatile player. " Keisel talks about how the team didn't let numerous injuries define them: "It's testament to the character of this team and the players we have waiting to come in and play. When they get their opportunity and they come in and play and we win, it says something about this team." Teammate Aaron Smith talking about Keisel: “I think Brett’s really coming into his own. I think this is the chance for him to have a Pro Bowl year.” “He’s feeling more comfortable, more confidence. He’s a great player. It’s just a matter of him maturing.” He had an unbelievable camp in practices. There aren’t too many guys who can block him in practice.” Events and Appearances

Tellman Knudson is running barefoot across the country to raise money for youth homelessness in America. Knudson is trying to raise $100,000,000.00 to aid homeless youth in a project called RunTellmanRun. From Tellman: "Sounds crazy, right? I get that a lot. But I live by a guiding principle: If you don’t set yourself extremely ambitious goals, nothing great will ever be accomplished. Brett and Sarah Keisel have long been involved with charities for homeless youth, so Tellman's cause was right up their alley. They met with him in Pittsburgh, and visited The Hub Outreach Center. Brett graciously signed two footballs which will be auctioned to raise much-needed funds for The Hub. To read about their visit, and about Tellman's amazing journey, click here. You can also donate money or leave comments about his wonderful cause through the link. Keisel Covers
