Ben Roethlisberger’s Suspension Reduced From Six Games to Four
1-liner, NFL September 3rd. 2010, 11:25amBen Roethlisberger: The NFL just announced Roethlisberger’s suspension will be reduced from six games to four. With backup QB Byron Leftwich getting injured last night, it looks like Pittsburgh could start Charlie Batch or Dennis Dixon in Roethlisberger’s absence. The Steelers open vs. Atlanta, at Tennessee, at Tampa, and vs. Baltimore. That’s very favorable – the two toughest opponents are at home. Feasibly, Pittsburgh could go 3-1, but 2-2 is more likely. Reminder: Peter King picked the Steelers to win the Super Bowl.

it was pretty much always going to be four, as long as his dog didn’t kill somebody and he didn’t rape his NFL mandated counselor.

I believe King has the Steelers over the Packers.
From looking around the web, Green Bay seems to be the object of affection among NFL writers. Lotta folks have Rodgers in NFC title game or Super Bowl.
over the last few weeks, everyone seems to have soured on Dallas. Cowboys were a trendy pick after the draft and this summer

Peter King needs to take a coffee shit to clear out his brain.

Das Kommissioner should’ve just said four and stuck with it. Would’ve prevented stupid talk about it over the summer.
September 3rd, 2010 at 11:34 AM
I thnk he did rape his counselor
September 3rd, 2010 at 11:36 AM
O-line problems.
September 3rd, 2010 at 11:36 AM
still think they win the crap that is the East.
September 3rd, 2010 at 11:37 AM
I think Goodell doing the classy thing here. Ben’s sorry and, besides, he just raped a college girl in a bar bathroom, it’s not like he killed a dog or something

As soon as I saw this, the lyrics “Don’t turn around…der Kommissar’s in town!”
September 3rd, 2010 at 11:38 AM
Those lyrics came into my head I mean. My brain has the tha dum today.

The Cowboys have O line problems in a discussion that has the Steelers in the Super Bowl?

Didn’t everyone like the Bears last season?
September 3rd, 2010 at 11:39 AM
Yeah, I think most smart people have concluded that while no one is bad, no one is really good, either. 10 wins might take the division, given relatively difficult schedules for everyone involved.
September 3rd, 2010 at 11:39 AM
that about sews up the Fulmer cup right?
September 3rd, 2010 at 11:39 AM
Hey Browns fans…Sounds like Hardesty tore his ACL…am I picking up Hillis? James Davis is not the guy I want, correct?
September 3rd, 2010 at 11:39 AM
Mark Richt is a saint!
September 3rd, 2010 at 11:40 AM
Peter King is having that discussion alone, we’re just observing.
September 3rd, 2010 at 11:40 AM
If the Steelers can steal one from the Titans on the road, I think they start 3-1. I also think they might win that division. Bastards.
September 3rd, 2010 at 11:40 AM
that’s about the same thing someone said in the comments of where i poached that link from.
September 3rd, 2010 at 11:41 AM
They already did. Fulmer Cup ended on Tuesday I think.
September 3rd, 2010 at 11:42 AM
Speaking of O line problems, has Ducasse really been the disaster that Hard Knocks made him appear to be?
September 3rd, 2010 at 11:42 AM
I have zero idea how the Steelers season is going to go. I could see just about any outcome. When I ran through the schedule a few weeks back I pegged them at 9-7 and missing the playoffs, but I really don’t have a firm grip on how this season will shake out…
September 3rd, 2010 at 11:45 AM
Winning that division would be by default what with Cincinnati relying on Carson Palmer, and Baltimore’s lack of secondary.
September 3rd, 2010 at 11:45 AM
I’ll take this.
Jared Allen is a redneck with a shitty, cliche tribal tattoo, stupid hair, gay celebration and doesn’t believe in double standards.
“Hey, I’ll dive at Jon Kitna and Gosder Cherilus’ knees but as soon as Gosder chop blocks me, I’ll bitch and moan and try to fight him!”
September 3rd, 2010 at 11:45 AM
Right now, I think they end up either 10-6 or 11-5 and the division comes down to who wins the second Ravens-Steelers matchup. I think the Ravens win the first one, but the Steelers take the second. The Wilson trade helps the Ravens, but it’s more like a bandaid on a gaping wound. Teams with good QB’s are going to torch them all season.
September 3rd, 2010 at 11:45 AM
Mike Comrie signs with the Pens. Note to Hilary Duff, watch out for anyone going by the name WhiskeyRebellion.
September 3rd, 2010 at 11:46 AM
pssh…the browns are totally winning the AFC north.
now excuse me…i have some paint to huff.
September 3rd, 2010 at 11:46 AM
Wow, for a guy who probably hasn’t been to the Ralph he seems to have a pretty accurate idea of what the parking lot is really like.
September 3rd, 2010 at 11:46 AM
The offense should score in bunches, just a question of whether the defense can become a poor man’s Saints unit and feast on turnovers playing with a lead…I’m not thinking SB yet until I see them get stops

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! 2 years in a fucking row that our rookie RB goes out. This better not be true.
And the answer is James Davis.
September 3rd, 2010 at 11:46 AM
Am I missing something about Pittsburgh’s offense that folks like TBL and Peter King are seeing? It hasn’t looked stellar by any means.

I want to enjoy a scenic balcony view with the Duffster. Shame she’s headed to Pens country. A fine young lady like her deserves better. Hopefully ole Grey Peen stays away from her.

Actually, I think he just sticks the nozzle of a Wagner Power Painter up his nose and lets it run.
Then the IV of Browns Kool-Aid kicks in. The Broncos and Browns AFC title game is going to be a sweet, sweet rematch.

You mean how Allen got his suspension reduced just like Big Ben? And about how Pac-Man had the same number of indictments as Big Ben has now and he got a year-long ban? That?

somebody tell me if the Steelers are still seriously considering starting Flozell Adams at right tackle.

dont’ forget Ray Maluaga. He’s Samoan, but he didn’t get anything for a DUI. You have to have really dark skin for Goodell to hate you.
September 3rd, 2010 at 12:01 PM
Ha. So true. I would wreck her world.
September 3rd, 2010 at 12:03 PM
Pacman and Ben’s legal troubles are almost strikingly similar.
September 3rd, 2010 at 12:03 PM
Yeah, Dirt. His pass blocking will probably cost the Steelers a game or 2. At least he can still run block well. Sadly, he is the best option they have. His back up is the reason Leftwich is hurt.
September 3rd, 2010 at 12:04 PM
Yes. And it will be a trainwreck.
September 3rd, 2010 at 12:06 PM
the sad truth is that I’d like to have Big Flo back at this point. Standing on the sidelines, but still.

Should have been 2, whatever, I’m over it, lets play some football.
Shaun Rogers, busted for PED, accused of sexual assault, guilty of loaded gun on an airplane = fine.
September 3rd, 2010 at 12:15 PM
That Skip Bayless fellow was yammering this morning about how the injury to Leftwich could turn out good for the Steelers because it gives Dixon a chance to shine.
September 3rd, 2010 at 12:16 PM
You people are insane.
September 3rd, 2010 at 12:17 PM

it was also never going to be six. But he was definitely the white player who was made an example of, so that the Clowns of the world would relax about how only black people were getting punished.
September 3rd, 2010 at 12:21 PM
His High Holy Mackness personally assured Goodell that Rogers is now on the straight and narrow.
September 3rd, 2010 at 1:07 PM
