Full season suspension

If testimony provided by the friends of the alleged victim are accurate, Ben Roethlisberger is extremely lucky that he wasn't charged with rape and the NFL should suspend him for one season.

Based on the released evidence since Monday, I think Roger Goodell should hire his own investigators to try and find out just how accurate their testimony is before making a ruling. But the testimony is pretty damning. If this is true, he should be gone for a year.

I feel really bad for Steelers fans. How can they root for Roethlisberger knowing that he's basically scum? And yet, he's their meal ticket to more Super Bowls. He's on the short list of quarterbacks who is capable of elevating his team to a championship level yet they're going to feel dirty rooting for him.
