What pattern?!?
1) Riding a motorcycle without a helmet, WHICH WAS LEGAL, and getting hit by a car?

2) Being accused IN CIVIL COURT of rape, which any nutcase could go after anyone. A case which appears completely bogus from the start.

3) Being accused of some sort of sexual assault, but not yet charged? What if there's nothing to this? GBI already withdrew their request for DNA.

In my view, the last incident is the first and only issue here. No charges should equal no suspension. Now, foreplay in a public restroom and drinking with a 20-yr old I think could fall under conduct and possibly warrant 1-2 games.

Really you can't act on accusations that are unsupported by actual evidence and witnesses, because any player could be targeted with that. In at least 1 of these instances, Roethlisberger is a victim but people are trying to make it out as contributing to justification for suspension.

Good post Gut. The DA's office has just dropped the request for Bens DNA. So I guess the only thing Ben will be raping is the Clowns defense.

Don't believe DNA is required for charges that could be brought against him.

Your wet dream of Ben not being in the AFC north this season is over BR.

No "wet dream." We beat the shit out of him the last game and we'll do it again. Besides, when did I say he wouldn't be in the AFC North "this season?" I thought he'd get a suspension, which he still will, but it won't be for the season.

Ben isnt an OJ, but look.............Every Pitts fan still labels Ray Lewis a murderer, at minimum an accomplice. Sportsnation poll tonight said 64% believe Ben has serious issues and they dont look at him the same way.

Seriously do I have to say it AGAIN. You can't judge an ENTIRE fanbase by the statements of one or several fans.

Holy shit how stupid can you be?!

Who is looking the other way? As a Steeler fan I'm pretty pissed at the situation and I know A LOT that feel the same way.
