He must still be upset that he was suspended over a misunderstanding.lambeau said:Big Ben just said he figured TB would be there Thursday, because the League wants him on the field. Huh?
“Just felt like the league had done something without … I guess it was just more of a feeling, an inkling, of knowing that the commissioner jumped to a pretty harsh punishment,” Roethlisberger told New England reporters on a conference call Sunday morning.
“I still have a ton of respect for Tom. I think he’s the best in the business. If you want to be the best, you have to beat the best,” he said. “Of course, one part of you doesn’t want him out there, because he is the best in the world. A bigger part of you as a competitor wants him out there because he is the best.”
“It’s going to be electric. Especially having Tom out here, and just everything that’s going to happen, it’s going to be awesome,” he said.
“It’s the way that NFL football should start, and that’s maybe one of the reasons I knew that Tom would be out there, because I knew the NFL doesn’t want to start a game without him out there. Nerves will be running, jitters will be running for everybody. For young guys, I think it’s fun that they get to experience this, and even old guys like myself, I’m sure I’ll be nervous.”
Reading the link E5 just posted, it doesn't sound nearly as bad as this, to be honest.lambeau said:Big Ben just said he figured TB would be there Thursday, because the League wants him on the field. Huh?

considering the mess with Roethlisberger, lieutenant Kearney, etc. the Steelers are in a tenuous position.dcmissle said:There are a couple of Steeler sites that I checked on time and again as this foolishness unfolded. Somewhat amazingly, they consistently advised fans to expect to see TB week 1. And they expressed the view that this whole thing is stupid and overdone.
amarshal2 said:I hear you both. Personally, it's just much easier to laugh and brush it off when friends and acquaintances are trolling than when national/local types are trolling. For the latter, 75% of the readers thinks it's serious journalism and believes most every word. For many, it might be one of the only writers they ever get their news from or one of the few articles they ever read on the subject. Yeah, it's still a waste of time and energy to get ticked off about it but nothing about the entire experience of being a sports fan is rational to begin with.
Yeah, I retract my previous sarcastic joke. That's one of the more respectable answers I've seen from an active player.LogansDad said:Reading the link E5 just posted, it doesn't sound nearly as bad as this, to be honest.
What i can't wrap my head around, though, is how so many people in this country don't understand that Berman overturning the suspension does not equal the NFL putting Brady back on the field.

Why haven't the Patriots done this and put it on their website? Seems easy enough.Future Sox Doc said:Literally just did the experiment for my Steeler fan friends to shut them up. I have an official football, measured it in my house, temperature 74 degrees (12.85 PSI), and put it in a fridge (temp set at 40) with some wet paper towels and waited 2 hours. Took it out with them there. PSI? Down to 10.75 PSI. They were shocked. I still can't believe people (these are allegedly smart people, doctors) that still didn't believe this and actually started to wonder at that point why the NFL would keep pursuing this.

If I'm Brady, when I do give my sit-down interview, I am demanding this is part of it. I'd also want JJ and McNally to get their say, as well.

Just ordered a football and a gauge on amazon.

I meant it was the opposite of the league putting Brady back out there because they didn't want to kick off a season without him.Ferm Sheller said:
We're getting closer: It the exact opposite.
He couldn't have been more complimentary.
"I certainly have a great amount of respect for the commissioner and what his job is," Brady said. "
Ed Hillel said:Kraft said it Thursday night FFS. There's been one weekday heading into a long weekend, and there's probably some lawyer work to be done.
I am aware that he testified under oath at the arbitration. I am also aware that the transcript of that testimony was filed as an attachment to the Answer in the confirmation case. But he didn't testify under oath in federal court, no matter how "basically" correct Stephanie Stradley thinks Simmons was.DrewDawg said:Stephanie Stradley @StephStradley 4h4 hours ago
Basically @BillSimmons is correct. Under oath testimony from arbitration hearing was introduced into fed ct as evid
Thanks, DC. The fourth reporter's name escapes me too, and 10 minutes of Googling didn't help. Black guy, bald, not as controversial as Rhoden.dcmissle said:They trashed the League and RG. Enterprise entirely broken on this front. No credibility. Mocked "integrity" posture. Said "allegedly" with regard to TB's and team's misdeeds and trivialized them. None of this "innocence not proven" nonsense. Treated opinion as if it were vintage Mike Tyson uppercut.
Saunders, Ryan, Lupica and another guy whose name escapes me but was very good.
Obviously, hate blinded Rhoden was absent.
