    Interesting….

    "A picture taken of Roethlisberger -- wearing a shirt emblazoned with the devil on the night he was accused of sexually assaulting a 20-year old college student last week in Milledgeville, Ga. -- spoke a thousand words."

    "It was in stark contrast to the image Roethlisberger portrayed upon joining the Steelers as the No. 11 pick in the 2004 draft -- one of a humble young man from a good Midwestern family who points skyward after touchdown passes as a way of honoring his maker."

    This story reminds me of Dwight Howard of the Orlando Magic.

    Remember how he came out of High School as this super religious kid? Then a couple of years later he got a Cheerleader pregnant and was getting sued for Child support?

    Not the same as just wearing a T-Shirt, but what might be true coming into a professional career, changes when you have tons of girls and money being thrown at you...

      Like B.I.G. said... More Money, More Problems
      Life is funny like that... a game you love turns into a game worth billions and it comes with a ton of pressure and temptation.

      That life isn't as easy as we think.

          Yes...but I found it interesting to read what Harris said and thought it deserves it's own thread. It isnt anything to get all upset about. Worked up over...ya know.

            cruzer likes to go around the Ben threads reminding people he doesn't care.

            kinda like the crazy ex who keeps showing up at the club or dinner in slippers talking about how she is so over you...

                nope...

                but I went to college with a guy who looked for the prettiest girl with the lowest self esteem every time we went out. These chicks would always cheat, always lie, always cry, always show up unannounced at 3AM...

                and when word got out about them hooking up there was always 5 to 6 guys who had similar experiences.

                McNutty had crazy written all over her face.

                  I believe the ritual of Ben pointing to the sky after TD passes has to do with his dead mother.
                  Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

                  Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

                  We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

                  We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.

                    Then, why is he pointing to the sky? He believes she is somewhere, right? Never mind, it is a rhetorical question (for most, I guess).

                      I'm not saying he's not a Christian...after all, he was disciplined by the league for writing "PFJ" (Play For Jesus) on his cleats as a rookie.
