Camp is here

The 2009 Steelers training camp has begun and you've found one of the top places to visit for up-to-date Steelers news by somebody actually covering the team – the other being my good friends at SteelCityInsider.com.

For those of you new to this blog, allow me to introduce myself. I'm Dale Lolley, Steelers beat reporter for the Observer-Reporter. This is my 17th training camp covering the Steelers as a beat reporter. The only person who has been on the beat longer is Ed Bouchette of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

In addition to this fine newspaper, you can see my work at SteelCityInsider.com and 4for4.com, and here me on occasion on the Steelers radio network on 970-AM, one of the team's flagship stations.

So welcome. Sit back, relax and stay for a while. The next three weeks should be very interesting.

Hey I'm new here I just want to ask about the rumor of Michael Vick going to the Steelers Is that really a possibility. We don't need any criminals or distractions like Vick.

Great writing Dale. Your blog makes being a Steelers fan in Patriots/Giants country possible.

Thanks Dale! Please tell us if Urpik has a real shot at starting at some point when you see how they handle the reps, etc.. Also please answer if Essex might be up for it or maybe Colon moves over and Essex plays right tackle.

ESPN1250 reported that a cab driver claimed to have dropped Michael Vick off at the Steelers Southside Headquarters this afternoon. The Stan and Guy Show reported this.

Dale, any truth to Vick paying the Steelers a visit today?
