I blame Ohio...

Re: Holmes on TMZ

it would appear this is the reason for the resigning of El- and not the theorized drug suspension.

Re: Holmes on TMZ

This supposedly occurs on 3-7-10, and we sign Antwaan Randle El and Arnaz Battle on 3-8-10. Coincidence? Or something more???

Perhaps this is the possible suspension-worthy offense that SN1's source was talking about instead of getting caught with pot again. Hmmm...

Re: Holmes on TMZ

Wow, that would end his tenure as a Steeler, I'm sure. Limas may have another window of opportunity to make an impact on this team. I'm not sure how this would effect the draft. What an idiot, these guys are unbelievable.

I'm not so sure about that...I don't know whether today's Steelers have enough moral fiber to deal with their star players.

Get used to it. We are the new Bengals.

Wonder when we'll have PacMan in for a visit?

I think it's time to shop Santonio. Enough is enough.

Re: Holmes on TMZ

Two key offensive players appear to be in trouble. I think those two should stay away from bars and night clubs for a while.

What the Hell are we going to get for him as he's about to be suspended, I'd bet.

Oh you can bet there are still some teams out there who would be interested in him. There were teams still interested in Pac Man Jones.

I have a hard time believing Holmes is going anywhere.

...Yeah...and do you really think he has stopped smokin' weed??

He just came out with a new blount called Almond Smocca.

I'm sure the team has it's investigators going over the facts on this case, as they are regarding Ben's situation, in efforts to come up with their own conclusions about guilt or innocence.

While I expect the team to keep Ben on the roster- (even if he is suspended) until the outcome of his case- it would not surprise me all that much if Holmes is involved in a draft-day trade.

As everyone here has already mentioned- they didn't sign a 50 catch p/yr El to a multi-million dollar contract to play the #4 receiver.

This alleged event occurred three weeks ago- the team is planing.

Does anyone have any idea what the second stage of suspension for this type of thing might be? 6 weeks? A season?

Because of the lack of certainty of Holmes availability for the upcoming season- what would his trade value be?

A 2nd or 3rd round pick??

Re: Holmes on TMZ

Another accusation without a formal charge. I guess I'm not interested until there is a charge of some kind. Other than that we have nothing to talk about, IMO.

The team doesn't need a conviction or even charges to suspend, release or trade a player they deem detrimental to the team. Santonio could be exonerated, but the Steelers would still be well within their rights to move him in some fashion.
