Two time Super Bowl champion Ben Rothlisberger has been implicated in a civil suit by a woman at a Lake Tahoe casino / hotel. The "unidentified" woman (aint that familiar) said that the Pittsburgh quarterback raped her after he called her up to his penthouse suite at Harrah's to fix his TELEVISION! Big Ben has hired a lawyer and has made a statement saying his client is 100% innocent and will be cleared of these "absurd" charges. There are also rumblings around the net that ESPN has a "do not report" memo goin around to all of its reporters / anchors / affiliates, stating that this story has NOT been authenticated and doesnt want to tarnish the reputation of its reporting and image.You want to know what this sounds like to me.... wait for it!!!! SOME BULLSHIT! Where is NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell with his "penalty flag"? Where is his readily accessible suspension stick? Wait I know what it is... its Ben, he's a white guy with a lot of money, there is no way on earth that he would even have to rape a woman...do you know how much action he gets thrown his way every day? Yeah right... Let me see if I can get this straight, he didnt bankroll a dog fighting ring like Vick...check. He didnt get drunk and kill nobody with his Bentley...check. He didnt take a suppliment with a substance banned by the league...check. He didnt take steroids and get caught lying to Katie Couric about it. God forbid he didnt pack heat goin to the club and "accidentally" shoot his dumb ass in the leg...check. So why are Michael Vick, Donte' Stallworth, and Plaxico Burris on indefinite suspension and this dude is untouched like he had the red "Do Not Hit" jersey on? They gonna have to fine me cause Im finna hit his ass, and Ima lead with my head.
This clown is being implicated for the crime of RAPE, of a human being! Albeit, it aint vehicular homicide as in the case of Stallworth, his victim wont be able to sue for "damages". The victim is "supposedly" suing for $400,000 in damages from Ben and $50,000 from the Harrah's Corp. Its clear that she no longer works for the casino anymore. Then to top it off she waited to bring forth the charges cause she feared that she would lose her job. You would think that if she was actually raped by the player, she woulda been said something. I call shenanigans... but dont this shit remind you of Kobe Bryant and the lil chick up in Colorado? I wondered when I first heard this story if this wasnt the same chick and thats why ESPN has the gag order on their people. Why give this chick any more exposure. Anyway Ben doesnt make as much as Kobe so it is what its gonna be. Im still pissed that whether or not this is an actual truth Goodell hasnt whipped out the "Go directly to the suspension room" card yet... This really is disheartening to true fans of the NFL and folks in general that abide by fair play. Lets see how many endorsements he loses or if his jerseys get pulled off the shelf or if the Rooneys disown him the way that Mr Blank did to Vick.... Who says there is no such thing as racism anymore. Its live and well in professional sports
WOW JUST WOW
