JLC says there is a chance the Steelers really will trade Ben, maybe to STL for Bradford..but would take alot to get it done

Re: Would the Steelers really trade Ben?
 

[quote=Schneed10;688881]Now that I'm hearing the details coming out about this whole ordeal, there are now exactly two players who I would stand up and actually scream at visciously if I had seats near the visiting bench at Fed Ex. I think Ben is right up there with Vick in my mind, as a complete piece of trash. I'm so disgusted by both of them that I'd actually become that guy at the game, the guy who just won't stop angrily heckling.

I'd probably stroke out from yelling so much.[/quote]I've reserved judgement on this since it happened....however looking at the witness statements, I agree with you 100%.

Roeth = Big, stinkin' PoS. He is a heartless piece of human filth, I hope the rest of his career is a complete failure.

If I was the Rooney's he'd be gone. The Steelers are a class franchise they will survive dumping PoS Ben and I hope they do.

Re: Would the Steelers really trade Ben?
 

maybe they trade for this guy!!!!!! LMAO

Re: Would the Steelers really trade Ben?
 

A lot, if not most, NFL guys I've spoken to all say that they are not surprised about these witness statements (not that they were expecting them, just the content) and that Roeth is basically someone that abuses his privileges as an NFL QB....seriously abuses his privileges

Re: Would the Steelers really trade Ben?
 

they would, if they had a back-up plan... but they don't, so no

Re: Would the Steelers really trade Ben?
 

I think they'll definitely look to trade Ben. Who's going to take him though?

I think there are several teams without legit starting QB's. Whether they will get an offer they can accept is another matter.
AND HOLY HELL.....M. Vick got a job.

Well if she originally said I don't know if this is a good idea.. she showed no signs of being forced to have sex.. well she should've said no.. he shouldn't have taken advantage of her either

hell I've heard that line before but it was usually with a girl I used to date who was with somebody else at the time.. or if it was a kind of public spot.. not the same situation and it was all consensual, but unfortunately if she didn't say no.. she didn't say no

unfortunate situation for everyone.. ben's still a scumbag

Re: Would the Steelers really trade Ben?
 

Big Ben is a run-of-mill QB. The Steelers can replace him with JC and they'd still win because of that defense.

I wish I could agree with you but guys who put up 4,000 yards and 100+ QB ratings that have two super bowl rings(leading them to and being there to win the first one and being mainly responsible for winning the second one) don't come along everyday. I saw a Steelers fan on a forum list all the QB's since Bradshaw and cringed at the idea of having to look for another one.

Sad story in sports. Many people seem to forget that Mike Tyson actually went to jail for rape. However the difference between Vick and Big Ben is that Ben has allegedly engaged in a horrible act against another person Vick's offense (and I can't believe I'm going to say this) was against dogs. They're both detestable but if Big Ben's story is true then I would easily put him ahead of Vick for the biggest scumbag under center.

Also if it's true then maybe we could hire this guy:

Difference is Vick went to jail, did time for his crime and came back as a free agent. No one traded for Vick at the height of his mess

I'm not trying to engage in debate over Vick v. Ben, sounds like both deserve serious punishment, but IMO the more serious criminal aspect of Vick's behavior wasn't just that he partook in dog fighting & gambling, but that he bankrolled an illegal organization over a period of time.

I think that it's often overlooked when people talk about Vick. It wasn't as if he just attended a few dog fitghts & placed bets, he was virtually the dogfighting league comish!

Re: Would the Steelers really trade Ben?
 

In regards to the question I think anybody can be traded at anytime. You will always find away a team willing to give talent a second chance. I mean look at our situation of Phat Albert the guy is a top talent on the D in his prime, and we our fielding offers.

The comparison of JC to Big Ben though...freakin please...lolololololololololol. Yall are really waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to funny. lol good one.
