    This organization needs a good housecleaning.

    Stuff like this happens to every team. Happens less to solid organizations like the Steelers, Giants and Pats, but it still happens. Isolated incidents are not an indictment of the front office or the team culture.

    Haters will use it for a little while, then everyone (haters included) will move on.

        And once again we see an example of a very simple truth: Alcohol makes you do stupid stuff. If you can't handle it, don't drink it. Period.

          He's done, so much for that little experiment. Our draft picks have not been too hot lately.

              He might be done as a Steeler, but you mean as a football player? I think he can still have a future, obviously after MATURING a whole lot.

              Whatever... he shouldn't be wearing the #95 anyway (should be on the officially/unofficially retired list).

                Freakin stupid. Problems getting a Nose Tackle for the 3-4 just got worse. We already have a completely ineffective Hampton. Herein lies the issue I rail about with regards to replenishing the talent required to run a successful, elite 3-4 defense.

                  He is very lucky he didn't kill someone or that the cops didn't shoot him.

                    Or become the next Gabe Rivera????

                    I don't think Ta'amu is long for the Steelers.

                      By that detailed report, I'd think he's likely to wear a non-NFL uniform for quite a while. Sad. Hope he will redeem himself when the time becomes right for redemption.

                            He has 15 charges against him and 5 of those are felonies.

                            I would say that he will see jail time....even if they plea bargain this I can't see them giving him a plea bargain with no jail time.
