Ben Rapelisberger at it again

Chalk me up as an "apologist" too, but Mace is correct. It is an allegation at this point. Do I THINK he's done something wrong? Yeah, I'd guess "Big Ben" probably went snatch to ass and finished off the 2 minute drill delivering a man-mayo spiral deep in her end zone while she screamed no because hey, we all know Big Ben is clutch "in the end." But what anyone here THINKS and what is proven are 2 totally different things.

I fully expect Goedell to do something. I don't expect him to do anything the day after the allegation comes out. Goedell does not kneejerk like most uninformed people do. I expect Goedell to let the legal system to play itself out. IF Ben is cleared, I still think Goedell will send a message with a two game suspension for his multiple episodes of issues.

Yes, bad judgement is all he is guilty of right now it seems. It may be more. Since he has had multiple encounters with bad judgement, I think Goedell acts...just like he did with Pacman Jones.

Whether he's guilty of these sexual assaults remains to be seen. It does appear this guy is a world class douche and very immature. I heard on the am dial this morning that local Pittsburgh stations were deluged recently with reports about his ultradouche behavior around town. For example, this a-hole has a habit of stiffing restaurants with huge bills. His reasoning: "I am Ben frigging Douchelisberger and my mere presence here caused your establishment to see a huge increase in patrons, and therefore, revenue. If anything, you should be paying me." Again, this remains to be seen if it's true or not. This much I do know, the stories about this bastard's douchedom are becoming legendary. At some point, the shit is really gonna start sticking to this guy.

Everybody makes mistakes, live & learn, but unfortunately for Ben that isn't the case.

No, I'm not a rocket scientist, and its quite obvious that neither are you Mace. Seems your clients are rubbing off on you my friend.

Nice back pedal from the "he's a rapist" thing. :roll: I believe that I've already said that he is putting himself in bad situations and that it's possible that he has a drinking problem...not confirmed, but possible.

And please show me how my "clients are rubbing off on me", Joe, but put your mouthpiece in before you do, 'cause otherwise you're going to swallow your fucking teeth. Nothing could be further from the truth, dumbfuck, as I'm only saying that Ben deserves the benefit of the doubt until he is found guilty of something....or at the very least, actually charged with a crime and the evidence is presented so we can judge for ourselves with an informed opinion....yeah, I know that's foreign to you and mvscal, but why not give it a shot. Not once have I claimed him to be innocent of anything...not once. I've only said that I choose to wait for the evidence to come out and then make a judgment, not before.

Joe, I could have told you this was going to be a problem. If you had told Mace that some of his livestock were “rubbing one off on him”, he could have swallowed that.

Van · Post by **Van** » Mon Mar 08, 2010 8:18 pm

Exactly what evidence—much less proof—is there that Ben has a drinking problem? To the best of our knowledge, he's never:

-Gotten a DUI
-Been arrested for drunken and disorderly conduct
-Been in rehab
-Missed any team function due to an alcohol-related issue

I can't recall now, but there was no DUI with his motorcycle crash, was there?

About all we have is a pic of him wearing a drinking shirt while making a stupid face. We also have a couple of unsubstantiated allegations of sexual assult, neither of which even resulted in his arrest, much less his conviction.

So, what is there? Based on what we know, he appears to have no problem whatsoever with his drinking. He's never had a single drinking-related incident for which he even needed to apologize.

Joe, the fact that you even think he has a drinking problem or a problem with rape is 100% due to his being a star QB in the NFL. Otherwise, this is a nonstory, as it has been from Day One. However, because he is a star QB in the NFL, you've gone all National Enquirer in your arm wavy—full credit to mvscal for that :D —zeal to rush to judgment. You know nothing of the guy, yet you've already concluded that he's a poor team leader, a guy with a drinking problem and probably a rapist too.

The fact that his teammates don't seem to see it that way, that doesn't seem to matter to you, even though they know his situation a whole lot better than you do. The fact that he's never been charged with or convicted of a single crime, that's also somehow a nonsequitur to you.

These facts tend to paint you as being fairly thick.

It is like a cleansing breath of fresh air.

BTW: I see that it has been broadcast all over that Ben has "lawyered up". Of course not nearly as much attention has been paid to the fact that the alleged victim has also hired legal representation. Gee, I wonder why? What does a crime victim need a lawyer for?

Not quite, it has to do with two allegations within a year though.

The first allegation does look bogus based on what I've read, but he should have learned from it. Of course if he's drunk as a skunk that might explain his inability to do so.

I look at this just like I do when a person gets arrested for DUI twice within a short period of time. Even though the person hasn't been convicted yet, its fairly apparent that person has a problem with alcohol.

Van · Post by **Van** » Mon Mar 08, 2010 11:16 pm

Only Ben hasn't been convicted even once, much less twice, nor has he even been arrested a single time.

Kinda makes your multiple-DUIs analogy fall flat.

No, it's due to the two sexual assault allegations in less than a year. There are 31 other starting QBs in the NFL. Some of them are even stars. How many of them have faced multiple sexual assault allegations in less than a year?

At the absolute bare minimum here, it's clear that he is putting himself in bad situations which any reasonable individual will attribute to the fact that he is a drunken fuckwad with little or no impluse control.

Ben drinks, Ben sees, Ben rapes. It's that simple. He feels he is entitled to the pussy. After all, he's Ben Rapistburger.

I'm not usually one to go to the race card, but would we be seriously entertaining any doubts if Rapistburger was a n...igger?

Allegations which he only heard about because Ben is a star QB in the NFL.

They're also allegations which probably only came up because he's a star QB in the NFL. I have a feeling that were Ben just some plumber the girls wouldn't have bothered.

There are 31 other starting QBs in the NFL. Some of them are even stars. How many of them have faced multiple sexual assault allegations in less than a year?

How many times has Ben been arrested or convicted? How many DUIs are on his record?

Christ, until he's at least charged with something, he's as clean as Peyton Manning. The DAs haven't even found enough validity to these allegations to bring charges against him.

At the absolute bare minimum here, it's clear that he is putting himself in bad situations which any reasonable individual will attribute to the fact that he is a drunken fuckwad with little or no impluse control.

He's guilty of going to nightclubs. That's it. That's all you know, and that's no crime, nor is it proof of poor judgment. You have no evidence of his ever being drunk, much less his having a drinking problem. All you know is that there are two allegations made against him, neither of which resulted in charges being filed against him.

Everything else is you going all arm wavy about absolutely nothing.

Ben drinks, Ben sees, Ben rapes. It's that simple. He feels he is entitled to the pussy. After all, he's Ben Rapistburger.

Or not.

I'm not usually one to go to the race card, but would we be seriously entertaining any doubts if Rapistburger was a n...igger?

Minus even a single DUI or arrest of any kind on his record? Yeah, I would. I'm more inclined to believe that these guys are simply easy targets for gold diggers. When there's never even an arrest made, it begins to seem like it's just opportunistic women throwing shit against a wall and hoping something will stick.

More hyperbole. Kids determine who they look up to, beyond their parents, and they're very likely to have other role models in addition. Local sports stars (especially the local QB) have been role models for kids since before we were kids Mace. It comes with the territory.

Yer a Fuckin Jerkoff · Tue Mar 09, 2010 1:51 am

Here is my biggest question about this whole deal...

People talk about how Big Ben is a target for a payday whenever he goes out, but why is it that he seems to be the only one who KEEPS getting accused of this shit? I mean, think of how many other "targets" there are out there who plow strange but never have these accusations come up?

It HAS to be either the fact that they know he's a dumbass and take advantage of it, OR he really is more of a dumbass than we think and really DOES force himself on skanks. I'm trying to figure this out.

edit: oh shit....I didn't read Joe in PD's post before I posted this. He was asking the same thing.

trev · Post by **trev** » Tue Mar 09, 2010 1:59 am

Ben is not as clean as Peyton Manning. Just the fact that he's picking up skanks in bars should tell you that.

Van · Post by **Van** » Tue Mar 09, 2010 2:27 am

Except that you don't know that he picked up skanks in bars. You don't know what he did there.

Besides, I'm assuming Peyton's married while I'm also assuming Ben isn't. Peyton's also older, so no, I don't expect him to be in nightclubs much anymore. For a young, single guy like Ben, going to a nightclub is pretty much par for the course.

Mace · Post by **Mace** » Tue Mar 09, 2010 3:04 am

Okay, Joe, are you listening? Here's how it happens to NFL QBs. Ben goes to a college town bar with some buddies, they're having a good time, and drinking a number of beers. College gal gets friendlly, knows that Ben is an NFL QB, and next thing you know she offers a blowjob to Big Ben and procedes to suck the jizz outta little Ben. Next step, college girl goes to the hospital and has them swab the sperm off her tonsils and claims that Ben forced her to give him head. Following me so far? They'll get DNA from Ben's semen and then call Ben to the police station to collect his DNA...of course they match, and then it's a matter of the police confirming the girl's story that Ben forced her to perform a sex act or collecting statements from witnesses that conflicts with her story and says that it's consensual. Worst case for Ben is that there are no witnesses to the sex act. Best case for Ben is that the other folks witnessed the girl come on to Ben and heard her offer the head job.
At any rate, that's a possible scenario that would dispute your contention that he committed a sexual assault while, at the same time, confirming that Ben's not so bright. A guy in his position has to be extremely cautious and not put themselves into these situations but, at the same time, he's a young guy looking for a good time, as were we all.
Since you guys are all playing "what if" with this story, I thought I would offer up a different story. So now who's the victim? I think I'll wait for the police to investigate and see if he is even charged with a crime.

Ben's a hell of a qb. He's not really Mr. Good Neighbor. He's a spoiled A-hole, and that's how he acts. Being tanked isn't going to improve this simple fact.

Ben's got to understand that he is a public figure. He can't be in public situations like this - too volatile. There's no way to evaluate the allegations at this point.

He has the money to indulge in any sort of whim he cares to. He can rent out a whole strip club every night of the week if he wants. He needs a friend who will help him be discreet and stay out of dangerous situations.

He really needs to pay his library fines, too.

Right, mvscal, a pic of a guy wearing a goofy t-shirt while making a stupid face is proof that he's drunk, has a drinking problem and rapes women.

Or maybe it was the charges that weren't pressed on those 'several' occasions which so easily convinced you.

You know when that picture was taken? It was in January of 2005, after Ben's Steelers had just beat the Jets in an epic overtime playoff game to seal a spot in the conference championship game. He was a rookie QB who had just authored as season for the ages like no other rookie QB ever. It was also FIVE FUCKING YEARS AGO.

Now here's how Ben looked just hours before the alleged incident courtesy of TMZ...

Now, could be back away from the Ed Hardy t-shirt rack? Hell yea. But I'd hardly say he looks wasted in that picture by any stretch.
