jeeeez, look at those comments from posters........

Everyone wants his head, so to speak, and noone really knows anything about what went on. Absolutely nothing, and they want him out of the league, banished, for what, being a horny 28 year old millionaire? Idiots, hopefully they will weed these easily swayed minds out if this ever goes to trial. F*cking sheep.

I suppose rape should be legalized then, since horny males should just have their way.

Or maybe we should just have unisex restrooms, since, uh, well, you know, boys should have their way.

Grab your wallet and settle as quickly and quietly as possible, Big Ben.

You know just as little as we do. He could have done this type of thing 15 times before and no one came forward until now. No one knows the truth and he was probably so shitfaced that he doesn't know what happened either. Are you really buying the, "Yeah, I banged her and then she hit her head and decided to claim rape" story? He never should have been allowed to make that statement. What an idiot.

Sure he is innocent until proven guilty but as a high profile athlete with a track record of moronic judgement, he has set himself up to be judged in the court of public opinion. It is "right"? Probably not, but that is reality.

You seem to be more closed minded and judgemental about this issue than the other posters. Just calm down and look at the information out there. Things aren't looking too good for Big Ben aka Frank the Tank.

Here is the life lesson that I have learned from this:

If you are a famous 28 year old multi-millionaire, it is bad idea to get hammered and screw a 20 year old college girl in a bathroom during a 5 bar tour in Nowheresville, Georgia.

Edit: Isn't it interesting how aggressive Ben and his legal team were against the first accuser? Seems like a different approach this time around. What is different???

No one "hit their head" the first time around.

During football season a few of the Steelers go to the Wheeling Downs to gamble. From the stories that I have been told by the people that work there they say that Ben can be a a$$ sometimes.

If he isn't willing to provide a DNA sample, that right there proves he is guilty. If he is innocent, then he has nothing to worry about in submitting the sample.

Nothing in life is that simple. First if they had consensual, his DNA would be there and it wouldn't prove anything really. Second, and this may sound paranoid, but once you give your DNA it goes into a Federal DB and, well, let's be honest some people just don't trust the govt that much. Finally, it may be on the advice of counsel that he doesn't, because the counsel knows that if it matches, even in consensual, it creates a prejudice.

It's along the lines of an innocent man not wanting to testify, only because his testimony has enough flaws that a good prosecutor will make his answers him sound guilty. That might be why the Bill of Rights included the defense against self-incrimination.

But DNA is SCIENCE, right Kowalski ;-)
