FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- It's a meaningless game for the New York Jets, but offensive assistant Hines Ward wants a championship-like celebration if they defeat his former team, the Pittsburgh Steelers.
"It will be special for me, but I'm a competitive guy," Ward said Friday. "I want to win. I want to beat the Steelers as much as anybody in this building, trust me. I'm telling my guys you have to win this for me. I want the Gatorade shower and all that if we win."
Ward, a legendary Steelers player who won two Super Bowls and a Super Bowl MVP during his 14-year career in Pittsburgh, said this is the first time in his career that he's rooting against the Steelers.
