Has twice now been accused of sexual assault against women. He's lucky to be free not facing charges for either alleged assault.
The details from the latest one is sickening...
Quote:
In 572 pages of documents released Wednesday, Nicole Biancofiore told investigators from the Georgia Bureau of Investigations that her friend, a student at Georgia College & State University, "was dragged by a bodyguard to the back room in Capital [City, a local nightclub]. She was extremely intoxicated and not aware of what was happening."
"He had sex w/me and meanwhile his bodyguards told my friends they couldn't pass them to get to me," the accuser wrote in her statement, which was reported in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
Quote:
In the Milledgeville incident, Roethlisberger was out drinking with friends to celebrate his 28th birthday and bumped into the student and her sorority sisters throughout the night. They linked up at Capital City, where he invited them to a VIP section and bought them a round of shots.
Later, the accuser said Roethlisberger had sex with her in a bathroom adjacent to the VIP room.
Another friend of the accuser, Aliesha Scholten, told investigators that she tried to open the locked door, but "she was taken away by a bodyguard of Ben's."
A third friend, Ann Marie Lubatti, told police, that she "approached the other security guard and told him that she [the accuser] was in no shape to be back there with Ben Roethlisberger. He couldn't look me in the eye, and told me he didn't know what was going on. My friend went to open the door, and it was locked."
Now I don't want to assume or imply anything, namely that NFL Commish Goodell isn't handling this the same as other accusations against black players ... but thus far Roethlisberger has been untouched, even though he barely slipped out of being charged with the latest accusation. And he's still facing a lawsuit with the first accusation.
I hope the dirtbag gets suspended several games, if not by Goodell and the NFL, at least by the Steelers organization. I have several friends who are Steelers fans and they're sick of his off-the-field troubles.
Goodell better use the iron fist with this as he has with other players, otherwise it will do more than just appear that he deals penalties by race.
First, Ben has not been charged in either case. complaint filed is no indication of a crime. When investagated, nither incident generated enough evidence to even take it to a grand jury. (this is far from "barely escaped being charged")
Second, Ben is not married. He is single.
Now, where you and I agree is that he is a dirtbag for having sex in night clubs with drunk chicks. period. end of discussion.
But in all the cases that Goodell has taken action, there has been at the very least an indictmentn.

Innocent until proven guilty. Still, if he is doing these things, I have zero respect for him even if he can put a football in the hands of a receiver. D:

I have zero use for organized sports... it sets men up to live a life in the flesh. But this needs to go a court of law and viable witnesses need to be brought..... on this I have to agree with MOW. May the Righteous Judge guide the Judicial process is my humble prayer.
Bottom Line Organized Sports is a worthless waste of money and talent. Spend time in the Word with your family and stop lining the pockets of talented men that need to get a hold of God.

Hmmm.....I wonder why Paul often used those awful organized worldly sports as an analogy. He must've been confused.

I think NOW meant he wonders why PAUL often used those wordly sports as an anology. Good question. Some commentators suggest with Pauls knowledge of such things that He even *gasp* attended the olypic style games.
Really, its not like he was learning about the training and rules and regulations of running, wrestling, etc through Google or Sports Center.
In his time to have the knowledge he had, he would have to at least be a "casual fan" of sports-it would seem.

Yep, I did. My computer made a mistake. I fixed it. Thanks!
