Ben Roethlisberger was suspended for six games on Wednesday for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy, the NFL announced.
The Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback also was ordered to undergo a comprehensive behavioral evaluation. Commissioner Roger Goodell will evaluate Roethlisberger's progress before the season and might consider reducing the suspension to four games.
That's fairly stiff.
Another day, another disgraced athlete/celebrity. Consider the following: most of these guys have money, they have fame, and a legion of TV interviewers whose toughest question amounts to "Why are you so great?"
ReplyDeleteFace it, these people live in a world where the stuff they do is considered OK. That's why this stuff keeps happening.
Now comes word that the Steelers are shopping Roethlisberger for a Top 10 pick.
