@bunny hop …
Actually, I just copy and paste. Takes seconds.
What’s sad is that you think rape is a funny subject.
What’s funny is that Florio doesn’t post enough on the Browns to keep you occupied. But if he just posted on the Browns, he’d go broke.

Owned imo.

Heath Miller & James Farrior. More proof the University of Virginia teaches leaders.
As opposed to that other college within the Commonwealth’s boarders.

The people who KNOW Ben didn’t rape anyone:
Andrea McNulty & the Georgia accuser
Georgia authorities
NFL Security & Roger Goodell
NFL PLAYERS because many have been falsely accused and ALL know they could be.
However, the team also knows Ben wouldn’t be in this situation if he hadn’t been out getting sloppy drunk at a college party when he should have been keeping a low profile. So he’s jeopardized the season. Why would they elect him a team captain?? They thought Batch would be cut. Leftwich was a short-term substitute. And they have REPEATEDLY demonstrated no confidence in Dixon.
This should not come as a surprise.

OMG…. Isn’t it just exhausting, folks?
That said, it’s *still* funny to simply type 3 words like “he raped her” just for the sole purpose of watching Deb have to furiously pound out *yet another* 4 or 5 paragraph, point-by-point, long winded explanation about how Ben didn’t rape her, but is still guilty of bad decision making, etc. – as if we didn’t see the last 87 of them she posted.

Speaking of Jeff Reed … has anyone else noticed how tubby he’s gotten? I’m amazed he can get his leg up to make kicks. Isn’t the kicker required to work out with the rest of the team?

There’s nothing to read into this, it’s not like they were going to elect a captain who is suspended for four games.

Yeah Florio because Ben isn’t captain means nobody likes him on the team. That’s why they traded him for a 5th round draft pick. Or err…you’re an idiot Florio.

Dan, I don’t think the players make the personnel decisions, so maybe you’re the idiot?

Not elected a Co-Captain????
Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo………………. that ought to convince him – as if endless media attacks and possible prosecution weren’t enough – that Roethlisberger needs to take this rape allegation bullsh-t more seriously!

Rapists should not be Captains, unless of course the team is the prison team

For all the talk of the “old ” Steelers there are close to 20 players on their 53 who have three years or less in the league, including a whopping number of draft choices.
So that’s why the Steelers opted to bring some of their vets back like El, Foote, BMac and, of course, Leftwich.
Always retooling.

Well, either they would make a guy who wouldn’t be starting when Ben gets back. Or make Ben a captain while suspended?
So choices make a back-up QB a captain???
Or make a rapist a captain???
I like the one they decided which is niether.

Looks like the Steeler players are showing the type of class that is sorely missing from a great many of their fans.

What would it say about your organization if you elected someone a captain that is suspended for violating the personal conduct policy this season?
Captain Goodell ruled their was no violation last year, so it didn’t look as bad then as it would have now…

This is Ben’s team. He doesn’t need to do the pregame coin flip thing to confirm that.
