Roethlisberger in trouble once again

Quote:
We've received multiple e-mails over the past two days from folks sharing rumors of a new incident involving Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger and a body part other than his heart.

As the rumor goes (and it's spreading quickly), Roethlisberger was golfing in Columbus, Ohio, and he urinated on the course. Though it's not an uncommon event (I guess I can admit to it now since I haven't golfed in at least 14 years, which likely exceeds all applicable statutes of limitation), the complicating factor in this case arose from the fact (supposedly) that a woman witnessed the incident, that she complained about it, and that she now wants to press charges.

We've temporarily donned our journalism fedora (it even has a card sticking out of the ribbon that says "PRESS"), and we've learned from a source close to Roethlisberger that he was indeed golfing in Columbus, Ohio but that another member of his foursome peed under a tree, prompting a complaint from a woman.

Per the source, Roethlisberger got involved and helped to calm the woman down. (Hopefully, not with shots.)

So while, for now, it appears that Roethlisberger won't have to whip out the uromysitisis poisoning defense in order to avoid further scrutiny from NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, Ben may not be out of the woods. Just like the Mike Vick bang-bang birthday party, the incident can attract the kind of scrutiny that potentially leads to information prompting further punishment from Goodell -- or, possibly, a decision not to reduce Roethlisberger's suspension from six games to four.

Good God the internet media sucks.

A member of his golfing party taking a piss while golfing is news?

Re: Roethlisberger in trouble once again

lol...I don't think I've ever seen an "article" with so much "rumor has it," "supposedly," and "could be" tossed in.

So basically, Roethlisberger may or may not have either peed in public or tried to quiet an incident where a friend may or may not have peed in public. Stop the presses. This is, of course, news because the rumor is "spreading quickly." Good grief.

Dumb... IMO of course.

Wake me up when there's something substantial.

Ridiculous.

Of course, when I'm doing this on the golf course, I'm getting ready to putt!

Sounds like it was written by Marty York (those in Canada, specifically Ontario would get this reference)

Anyways what a ridiculous story but it doesn't sound farfetched knowing the kind of crap that Big Ben is regularly getting himself into.

Yet another case as to why the UroClub is such a great invention...
