PITTSBURGH -- Bart Scott's WWE-style rant last Sunday even has fans in the Steelers' locker room laughing.

Though he will have to cross paths with the Jets' mouthy linebacker tomorrow in the AFC title game, Pittsburgh wideout Mike Wallace couldn't help but express his admiration for Scott's famous ESPN interview after the Jets' 28-21 victory in New England.

Asked how he felt about facing the Jets, Wallace lowered his voice and growled Scott's now-trademark phrase: "Can't wait! "

Though Wallace's teammates laughed around him, he was pressed to rate Scott's bluster from 1-to-10 on the "entertainment scale."

"I give it a '1' only because they're playing us [tomorrow]," he said. "Otherwise, I'd give it a '10.' [Stuff] was funny."
