Ownership has control. If they are so embarrassed of the tarnished image BB and Holmes are causing their "family built franchise" . . . then cut ties with them. If, however, you care more about winning games then keep them, have more embarrassing episodes potentially pop up in the future and honestly be just like the bengals and most other teams in the NFL.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15287012.post-51476233559439817952010-03-31T06:58:23.447-04:002010-03-31T06:58:23.447-04:00Dave,

Not a big deal.<br /><br />But people should realize it. <br /><br />Hell the Rooney Empire is partially built by making money in the gambling business. <br /><br />You think they would give some gambling addict who blew his life savings at their dog track their money back? <br /><br />I don't think so. <br /><br />HeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15287012.post-3629857998942767592010-03-30T23:11:24.508-04:002010-03-30T23:11:24.508-04:00I just love how Steelers fans in order to try and ...I just love how Steelers fans in order to try and defend two idiots need to try and trash the team and former players.<br /><br />The Steelers may have had players that weren't upstanding citizens, but they have tried to have good character guys. They don't go out searching for the troublemakers. <br /><br />Ben and Santonio have given the Steelers and the Rooneys a black eye. <br />Fans who I'm sure in the past have argued with Ravens and Bengals fans in the past about the image of the Steelers are I'm sure now the one's who want to say it's always been that way in order to defend two idiots. <br /><br />Whether fans want to admit it or not. Regardless of guilt or innocence, Ben and Santonio put themselves in situations to be accused. Santonio is not helping his cause by tweeting comments that leave no doubt he's an idiot. The perception is now out there that the Steelers are no better than the Bengals or the Cowboys of the 90's. <br />Maybe some fans don't care. But I don't think the Rooneys are happy that the perception they have built of being a team that does it the right way is being tarnished.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15287012.post-36539437610718832532010-03-30T23:00:39.270-04:002010-03-30T23:00:39.270-04:00There's your first mistake, hyping the "S...There's your first mistake, hyping the "Steeler Way". <br /><br />The Rooney's have always had "problem children" on their roster. This whole notion that the Rooney's don't tolerate BS from their players and they just rid themselves of them has to stop. <br /><br />I suggest reading up on the history of this team and the guys they've had on it. <br /><br />That way you see, you won't look like an idiot.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15287012.post-71815157804193416012010-03-30T22:23:11.097-04:002010-03-30T22:23:11.097-04:00Holme's accuser may be a loon but so is Holmes...Holme's accuser may be a loon but so is Holmes. Read his comments on twitter. <br />I can't believe somebody hasn't told him to shutup already.<br /><br />As to athletes thinking they're bullet proof obviously that fits Holmes to a tee. <br /><br />Telling people to go kill themselves.<br />LHAO all the way to the bank.<br />Fans don't sign his checks. <br /><br />Where is the "good daddy" who wanted all the publicity after the SB. You know the one who went on every TV show saying how he didn't celebrate, but spent the time with his son watching a cartoon movie. <br /><br />Regardless if the woman is a loon, regardless if he threw a glass at her or not. If he had been playing the "good daddy" role that he wanted to convince people he is, he would have been home with his kids instead of in some VIP bar room.<br /><br />The perception is out there that the Steelers are just as bad as the Bengals and the Cowboys. The Rooneys and the Steelers names are being drug through the mud because of two stupid idiots. Yet many fans are screaming how they should be given the benefit of the doubt. <br /><br />Ben and Santonio both are pathetic and an embarrassment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15287012.post-34885197727737479302010-03-30T22:10:59.993-04:002010-03-30T22:10:59.993-04:00Holmes' accuser is a loon.
