I was glancing over ESPN.com which is my 3rd home after Facebook/Twitter and Youtube and read an interesting blog post by Jamele Hill. It was regarding Ben Roethlisberger's latest off the field turmoil and the slippery slope of race Commissioner Roger Goodell is on right now. Let me throw out 3 names for ya! Mike Vick, Plaxico Burress, and Adam 'Pacman' Jones. All 3
BROTHAS were suspended from NFL play by Mr Goodell before being actually charged for their respective off the field crimes. All 3 suspensions were warranted and deserved. However, Big Ben a
NON-BROTHA has now been accused of the same crime (sexual assault) twice in the
SAME YEAR and has two pending cases. So I have 2 questions. 1-What is the commissioner waiting for? 2-If he was a
BROTHA, would he be suspended already? The longer the commissioner waits the more race is gonna be thrown around. Its 2010 and issues involving race and pro-sports arent going anywhere. Im not calling the commissioner a racist. I'm just saying the longer he waits to punish Big Ben the more people are gonna make the assertion that White players are given the benefit of doubt over Black players. Its not rocket science. Get on with it cuz Lord knows Roethlisberger deserves it!!!
