    Another Steeler involved in motorcycle incident Wire Report PITTSBURGH - Offensive lineman Barrett Brooks apologized to the Pittsburgh Steelers for his weekend arrest on charges he fled from police on his motorcycle, but said the chase resulted from miscommunication and not any wrongdoing.

"We're very disappointed with the judgment he displayed Saturday night, we talked to the football team about it and we'll leave it at that," Cowher said. "We certainly don't condone the actions and certainly...
