He’s committed no crime. That’s the money quote.

Outside of Texas, barbecue is pork hind cuts (Boston butt.) After cooking, it is removed from the bone by hand in small chunks, rather than sliced off with a knife. Hence the name “pulled pork.” Of course in Texas, barbecue, as you know is almost always sliced or chopped beef brisket.

And pork by any other name would taste as good...

There is not enough evidence to arrest Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger and file charges against him in connection with a young woman’s claim of sexual assault, authorities in Milledgeville, Ga., said Monday.

“In my honest opinion, we don’t even have probable cause,” said Wilkinson

Don’t you think Ben could use a handler? He’s like Pacman and keeps putting himself in these situations.

Not always beef-quite a few people, like my mostly hispanic family serves lots of barbecued/grilled pork-carnitas, shredded pork, pork ribs (lots of racks of ribs), etc.

If he ain’t wised up by now, no amount of handling is going to change anything. He needs to settle down and marry an old high school sweetheart or something.

“The police officer said, ‘Wait a minute, let me hear it from her’ — and she’s obviously intoxicated — and he said, ‘Did he rape you? And her response was, ‘No,’ “ Bright said. “Next, the first officer said, ‘Did they have sex?’ And she said, ‘Well, I’m not sure.’”

It sounds like the handler would need to fit Ben with a shock collar and carry a remote activator...

That’s not really what he said.He said he didn’t think he could prove it BARD....(Though one wonders why a Grand Jury wasn’t convened..)BARD is the business of a jury.

Given the fact that he went out of his way to describe the ...damage to the area in question...made me think that Ben might want to avoid driving anywhere within that mans reach for quite some time.

“‘Well, I’m not sure.’”

Maybe they were doing the Clinton thing...

first one, didnt even make the accusation for a yr, had emails about him- sounding interested -even after the date of alleged attack, so no way was there anything there. this one had more credibility just by virtue of being second accuser. is he an ass that has them all going vindictive after the fact or whatt?

Which is sort of inaccurate.

He had public indecency at the very least.

A caller on the local sports talk made in an interesting point.

Allegedly Ben’s bodyguards are LEO’s...If any of the allegations are indeed accurate they should be facing employment problems, aside from letting Ben get into these situations.

she was drunk, had evidene of trauma in genital region, cant recall if they had sex but bc she hurt after the fact figured it was rape? if she cant even recall if they had sex she surely cant say she did not consent. no wonder they cant prove anything. drunk people probably have sex in bars every day. if ones a millionare i guess charges get pressed.
