Hines Ward going Dancing...


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

...with the Stars, starting March 21.

He'll be only the second active NFL player to do so (Jason Taylor was the first). Lots of other retired guys have gone before, most recently Kurt Warner.

Sugar Ray Leonard and WWE wrestler Chris Jericho will also be part of this season.

What about Ward? You don't think he'll restore NFL dominance to this show?

Petra Nemcova is the other "hot chick" this season. Recent Senate candidate Christine O'Donnell was set to be on it but turned it down.

Also listed in the cast: Chelsea Kane and Mike Catherwood. Not sure what their "star" qualifications are. I honestly haven't the first clue who either of them is :confused:

According to Ward, dancing will help him get over the depression of losing the Super Bowl (PFT)

Ward says that he’s now dedicated completely to earning the Mirror Ball Trophy, which is awarded to the winner of Dancing With the Stars.

“It’s all about the Mirror Ball,” Ward said. “I couldn’t get the Lombardi Trophy, but I have an opportunity to get the Mirror Ball and put that on my mantel with all my other hardware.”

Wonder what happens if he loses this too.

Jericho gets Burke (who always gets the althetes). She hot as hell. Romeo gets the blonde. Kirstie gets Maksim, who always seems to have a thing for the women he dances with (Brandy & Erin Andrews, etc), pretty sure he won't have that problem this season.

about time Derek took a season off, hes won two straight seasons

Derek always got the hot chicks. Ballas gets another Disney girl (looked up who she was). He dated the last one. I think this one's married.

Cheryl would certainly have her share of athletes to choose from. Like Burke, but think Chelsie Hightower is hotter. And Lacey Schwimmer? Yowsa!

Ward gets Kym Johnston (also very hot). Karate Kid gets Karina Smirnoff (who'll likely have the smallest costumes with no Edyta again).

Tony Dovalani almost always gets screwed with lousy partners. And Wilkinson gets Van Amstel? How tall is she?

    • Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field. 
    • At least we don't need to hear overreacting about towels ...
    • Actually there is, try being a Charlotte Hornets fan. I mean the team fuging moved at its peak and hasn't recovered since and that was 25 years ago
