Ben suspension: Four to Six games

[NW Steeler]

I'm a bit surprised with 6 games. I thought that it would be 4 max. It seems a little out of whack when compared to what some other guys got for crimes that they committed and were convicted for. Bullsh!t.

Yea, Hor$e$hit.

Any tickets I have for the Atlanta game and maybe even the Baltimore game if he's suspended for that one too will be up for sale- I'm not going out and supporting those hypocrites. Email me if you are interested in them. Face value- 1st come 1st served.

Just keep in mind, they won't come out til summer.

There was an article stating that Ben would accept the punishment if he agreed with it or something like that. Wonder if he tries to get the labor union to fight it????

@mortreport @timothy__wilson Will NFLPA fight anything over a certain amount of games? > Ben didn't invite union to his hearing

IMO, he'll get the same suspension that Vick got. 6 games reduced to 2 if he stays out of trouble.

didnt vick get 6 games reduced to 4? i also thought vick was suspended for all six games, maybe it was the fact he hardly played when his suspension was over. thats some justice huh. i guess being accused of sexual assault is equal to killing dogs. nice

And why are they saying 4-6 with a chance to reduce it? Reduce it to what? Does that mean it is 6 with a chance to reduce it to four?

Yes, 6 with a chance to reduce to 4 per Mort and Adam Shefter.

OK- Now what Vick did, convicted and everything is now = to this?

LOL

I'll be at the Atlanta and Baltimore games, supporting Dixon or Leftwich or whoever. The team isn't giving up during the first month of the season. Fans shouldn't either.
