Steelers President Art Rooney II Expresses Support For Ben Roethlisberger

Pittsburgh Steelers president Art Rooney II expressed support for QB Ben Roethlisberger after the NFL reduced his suspension to four games on Friday. "Ben has done a good job this summer of growing as the person that he needs to be, both on and off the field," Rooney said in a statement. "I am confident that Ben is committed to continuing in this positive direction. As a team, our focus is now on preparing for the regular season and getting off to a good start on opening weekend." NFL commissioner Roger Goodell lessened Roethlisberger's ban for violating the personal-conduct policy from six for four games, but warned the QB it's dependent on him adhering to the terms of the behavioral modification plan outlined in the original punishment. Rooney's comments reflect the team's pleasure with Roethlisberger's progress thus far following Goodell's orders. In April, after a Georgia prosecutor declined to charge Roethlisberger following a sexual assault investigation, Rooney said that the QB "did not live up to our standards."

So I guess to Ireland it would appear that the United States is a pro-rape country then?

Sorry, well maybe I'm not, but you haters need to educate yourselves. Dan Rooney is the Ambassador to Ireland. Not Art II. Art II is the son of Dan. Educating yourselves is right on your fingertips. Not off the top of your head. phiglesphan, your shit is old and I am tired of getting e-mails for post reported due to your hate. Please find another topic to take care of that woody.
