That can be said. The fact remains that Big Ben is in trouble because of this one incident. I understand what you're saying, but I'm unaware the motorcycle incident factors into this at all. We still have one person, in this case, and one person in the other case, providing the "evidence" and is highly disputed.
But I'm just saying that I find all this problematic because Rothlisberger hasn't been proven to have broken a law. I don't see how he can be suspended for (his words) going into a bathroom and "fooling around" with a girl. Is he a scumbag? Maybe so.
Evander Holyfield fathered 9 children by 8 women in six years, none of whom were with his wife (as he entered the ring each time speaking in tongues). Shawn Kemp had more kids that he could count. Larry Bird fathered a daughter (Corrie) which he basically ignored for her entire life. This list is endless. Tom Tolbert, former NBA player and current radio talk-show host and network announcer, said that 95% of the married players he knew, had girlfriends on the road. If we start suspending athletes for their disgusting behavior, every league will shut down tomorrow.
