He expects a flight from over the pond into Pittsburgh where Rooney & son & Tomlin will sit down with Roethlisberger and give him the "what for." Topics were also brought up about the Steelers using a draft pick on a QB (as insurance) and the possibility of him getting released/traded if this is true.
The analyst also said that he highly doubts that the Rooney's will "self impose" any punishment on him and doubt that Goodell will either because he has a "friendship with the Rooney's and is 'fond' of the Steelers."
May have been mentioned but Screamin A. Smith was on Cowherd's show and said regardless of the outcome, Ben should be suspended.
I'm listening to Eric Kuselias sitting in for Cowherd today and he blasted both Steven A. and Colin for those remarks. He basically is saying that there's a rush to judgement when no one knows the facts. He also said it's ridiculous to suspend Ben no matter what the outcome is, what if this is really another gold digger? I'll go with Kuselia on this as he was an attorney before going in to broadcasting.
