    Now there are Vick questions being asked on Craig's Viking chat.

    I might as well sign up and ask a Steelers question.

    This is the greatest thread in history. Or at least the greatest NFL thread ever.

    I picture Zag saying this all in one breath.

    Oh and Sonner is a fucking disgrace of a human being who gets off on rooting for the worst people and teams in the world. :)

    I have never, ever referred to the Steelers as "we." And it should be "never charged," not "never convicted."

    You can't even get it right when you are trying to be funny.
     
  8. Didn't you already do it, which led to OOP doing it, but then you did it again. . . So confused. Do you always have to be so childish as to get the last word?

    Then how come I don't root for you? Explain that one, smart guy! Now, if you'll excuse me, Bojangles awaits...

    God, you're so ignorant....

    He was talking about posters on this board, Junkie.

    And the argument is usually that he wasn't charged, which would be a stronger way to make the point than to say he wasn't convicted.

    So Ben paid off a few young women to buy his way out of charges.

    Do you honestly expect us to belive you will not cheer for him the minute his serial rapist ass is back on the field?

    Honestly, I'm still not sure how I'm going to react. I have a niece about the same age as that girl. I have a daughter who will someday have to deal with drunk, dangerous assholes like Roethlisberger. I will probably just continue to root for the team, but I'm not comfortable with it.

    And you are truly showing your ignorance on this one. The woman from the hotel in Nevada didn't get paid off. She was discredited, mostly by comments from pretty much everybody who knows her. This is why I argued that saying there were two accusations was a bit unfair because the first one turned out to be such a joke. The woman bragged about fucking the guy.

    And the problem with the Georgia case wasn't witnesses refusing to speak up. It was a lack of evidence. The police are just like everybody else -- they are damn sure something very wrong happened in that bathroom. They know for a fact the circumstances that led to the girl being alone with Roethlisberger in there and very drunk were wrong. But they couldn't prove enough to get a conviction, so they let it go.

    Even dismissing the one at the hotel, the story in Georgia is extremely disturbing to me. Even if he didn't force himself on her in that bathroom, he got an underage girl drunk and had his entourage push her into a room to be alone with him and lock her in. Ugly stuff by anybody's standards.

    Is it as bad as bashing down a door and hitting a girlfriend with a phone, which was the charge against Harrison? You tell me.
