Title: Rapelisberger being shopped in a trade???
Post by: UPINTHEMGUTS on April 16, 2010, 07:10:48 AM
Interesting.........




Steelers listening to offers for Roethlisberger?
By Mark J. Miller

Embattled Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger(notes) may have gotten out of his current jam without being prosecuted by the law or suspended by the league, but his team is apparently extremely unhappy about the bad public relations he has brought to the team.

Yahoo! Sports' Charles Robinson is reporting that the team is at a "tipping point" with Roethlisberger. Team ownership is apparently "shaken" by how much Steelers fans are irked by all the bad press their team is getting.

It's extremely hard to think the Steelers will actively shop Roethlisberger and replace him with backup Dennis Dixon(notes). But the team is apparently open to listening to offers for the quarterback that has taken them to two Super Bowl championships since he joined the Steelers in 2004.

Pittsburgh presumably would listen to offers up until the draft next week.

Now all they need is for a man to murder a couple people, sell out his buddies and you've got the Ravens of the last decade. The Steelers need to draft some guys from Thug U.

New evidence by the accuser made public today. The DA in Georgia may want to think about re-opening this case.

Big Ben is looking more and more like a creepy guy.

Steeler fans....have fun cheering on your two time Superbowl winning QB this season knowing that he likes to get young girls drunk and force himself on them.

What a scumbag......

Earl loves his QB who exposes himself to young women.  >:(

What a dumbfuck.

I wonder what the reception will be once he is "Allowed" back on the field?

Big Ben represents the Steeler Nation.  :o

Actually, Earl doesn't like Big Ben that much at all. In fact, a lot of Steeler fans local to the Pittsburgh area are well aware of Ben's transgressions and notorious bar behavior.

All  of what players are getting in trouble with today   are things that were swept under the carpet (turf) back in the 70's.   The bar situations were an Oakland tradition with the Raiders!   QB's forcing themsellves on young ladies sounds new to me   but who knows what happened "back then".  So when I saw what Terry had to say to Ben via all over the nation....I wondered WHAT DID BRADSHAW DO BACK IN THOSE DAYS?

i doubt it's true but steeler beat writer ed bouchette reported that the rams could possibly trade 2 number 1 picks for ben

i'd make that trade in a heartbeat but i don't think the rams are that dumb, and i'm not high on bradford and clausen

i would like to see him go but only for the right deal, nothing is harder than finding a good quarterback

and peyton manning once sat on a womans face with his bare ass, if you actually went to high school you should know that the top jocks normally aren't the nicest guys ::)

Completely irrelevant moral equivalency argument. &guy is a dirtbag.  He's going to be suspended by the NFL and the Steelers.  Bradshaw has been all over him.  Many in the public think he is scum.

so you would take vick on your team, but not ben?  you used to say "i don't care i just want to win"

he's not going to jail, he won't be out of the league for 2 years, he won't be cut, he wasn't convicted

ben may be a dirtbag, but he's no vick

Dude.  This isn't about Vick.  I'd be happy to have Roethlisberger traded to the Niners.  He'd be a huge upgrade on the field.  He's still a dirtbag.

C.J. Spiller will be coming to San Fran, I hope.  ;)

I created a thread about it.  I think he's a good addition.  He's not a WR1.  He'll be a good role player, stretch the field a bit for Crabtree and Gore, and be good in the return game. 

I hope we draft Spiller at 13, but I've been hearing he might go in the top ten.  That might be why they made this trade.

Ginn is a punt returner and that is it.  :D

I have not been to a San Fran game in along time but tell him that his father is a complete ass.  :D

Yes I'm a Niner fan.  Thanks for the condolences.   :D 

Carr was a decent pickup.  He's going to back up Smith.  Same with Ginn.  Good pickup (for the price).  He'll be a role player.  We just need to nail the draft. 

Are you a Texans fan?
