The Commish did the right thing.

I wonder if the reason for 4-6 and not a straight 4 or 6 is to allow for the daily facts that keep popping up and the uncertainty about the police involvement in the case. The cop who took the report resigned and from what I understand, his "bodyguards" who were watching the bathroom door were off-duty police picking up some extra pay on the side. It may get much worse for Ben before it is resolved.

should be 4 games if he can manage to show up to his appointments and not rape somebody right?

They bring Leftwich in for a 7th rounder. Good move and good decision by Goodell.

I wanted to see 8 games. But per Adam Schefter, The steelers have begun contacting teams and are asking for a top 10 pick for Ben. They say at least one team is interested so far....

I wonder if Vegas is putting odds on that?

Nice one buster....that pic needs a caption

Re: Big Ben gets 4-6 games
 

I was thinking 8 games at first as well, but I think 4-6 is the better and more logical choice considering he wasn't charged or convicted of anything. If he got suspended for 8, what do you do for someone that actually gets convicted? Done for the year at the minimum?

Ralph Wilson is desperate to get a SB before he dies. I'm putting my bets that it's the Bills.

If that's the case, he shouldn't have hired Chan Gailey :laughing-

No doubt, especially since he'd probably be in jail for a bit.

It would be too great if Big Ben was exiled to Oakland.

This tweeter was on to something last night. RT @bdischy: Coincedence that PITT has 5 National TV games but 0 of their first 6 games?

Yeah...

Time to start really motivating teams not employ douche bags. Losing your starting QB for a year is a pretty good motivator.
