That would be huge for JC to go there...I'd like it a lot for him. but don't forget about a certain mark bulger...he's from PA and would make a lot of sense to go there. Just a thought, not sure how you guys feel if he is washed up or not, he could at least be a good backup.

I just read through all the posts, ive also been half-hazardly been keeping up on the case on the internet. There doesnt really seem to be any solid facts supporting the accusation, please correct me if im wrong. There is a video tape that got recorded over, but it doesn’t really seem like anyone even knows what the video tape recorded (the bathroom, or just the general bar areas?).
Whats really scary is that without any real evidence (again please correct me if im wrong) Ben will now forever carry around the stigma of being labeled a rapist. Most people commenting on this thread believe he raped this girl. It seems like most people out there also seem to believe that Ben will likely get in some sort of trouble for his accused actions, either getting a short suspension, substance abuse class, or something else.
Can anyone just lay out the facts or post links to the facts that seem like Ben actually raped this girl?

he invited her into the VIP section, bought her drinks, then took her into a bathroom and one of his bodyguards stood at the door. hmmmm...what could this mean?

hmmm, lets see, that she went in their willingly, hence some level of consent. that she drank with him again some level of consent. That he's an idiot and needs to get out of that environment before he actually does cross a legal boundary (if he hasn't already). And finally, that you are willing to make a lot of assumptions, and assassinate a person's character without regard to what the law and legal system actually say.

Ben R. seems like trailor trash to me. You're a professional NFL QB and you're going to college bars and going into bathrooms w/ 20 year olds?? I was reading that he runs out on bar tabs too. WTF?? Whether he is guilty or innocent he really needs to grow up.

The guy has the life that many of us could only dream of, and he seems intent on throwing it away. I am of the belief that he seriously needs medical help/treatment, and I haven't heard or read anywhere that he is seeking any. Might be a matter of time before trouble finds him again?
