IF Rothlesberger is indicted, do you think the NFL and or the steelers would suspend him like they did Vick, or would they wait for more evidence and/or the result of the trial?
Big Ben accused of sexual assaultBigHairedAristocrat 03-11-2010, 12:33 PM IF Rothlesberger is indicted, do you think the NFL and or the steelers would suspend him like they did Vick, or would they wait for more evidence and/or the result of the trial? over the mountain 03-11-2010, 12:37 PM idk, that was an interesting point that radio heads have been talking about. vick being suspended after getting indicted set a precedent that, in a fair nfl world, should be applied to all players. an indictment really shouldnt be the bench mark for when the nfl assumes guilt and takes action. the joke from some famous judge is that he could get his ham sandwhich indicted. grand jury proceedings are jokes. CRedskinsRule 03-11-2010, 12:39 PM credskins, your on point. they would need a warrant to take a DNA sample from ben unless he consents. of course, logic dictates that if they want a sample from ben they must have some dna fluid on the alleged victim to compare it to. im guessin he was gettin head, (something happens), she hits her head. for the location the appropriate phrase for (something happens) would have to be sh*t happens.

And "she fell on her head"? WTF? Are you serious? Damn Ben this doesn't look good man.. MTK 03-11-2010, 01:16 PM Can you imagine if we find out he was getting a blumpkin? lol BigHairedAristocrat 03-11-2010, 01:18 PM idk, that was an interesting point that radio heads have been talking about. vick being suspended after getting indicted set a precedent that, in a fair nfl world, should be applied to all players. an indictment really shouldnt be the bench mark for when the nfl assumes guilt and takes action. the joke from some famous judge is that he could get his ham sandwhich indicted. grand jury proceedings are jokes. i could see there being a difference here. with vick, there was quite a bit of evidence against him and he had lied directly to the commish. In this case, there may not be as much direct evidence at the time if/when Big Ben is indicted. It really may come down to a he said / she said situation which should not be enough to warrant a suspension. with vick, it was he said / all these dead dogs on your property said. Hopefully, there will actually be some hard evidence that either exhonorates or condemns Rothlesberger. Monkeydad 03-11-2010, 01:35 PM Is he married? SolidSnake84 03-11-2010, 01:48 PM To my knowledge Ben is not married. mredskins 03-11-2010, 01:53 PM Can you imagine if we find out he was getting a blumpkin? lol Gross and that would be one big blumpkin. GMScud 03-11-2010, 03:40 PM Are you serious? Damn Ben this doesn't look good man.. I think in the end he'll get off (no pun intended). There was alcohol involved and it's simply her word against his. He's lawyered up with a guy who helped Ray Lewis get away with murder. At this point it's her word against Ben's. I have no clue what legal precedent says about these kind of cases, but even if his DNA matches whatever evidence the cops already have, it's going to pretty difficult to prove (without reasonable doubt) that a sexual assault occurred. Either way it's another huge hit to his image. At this point he's a scumbag in my eyes. |
