Now name the 19 steeler incidents without cheating.

Here's what I can remember. 14/19 if my math is correct.
Spoiler:
Holmes (drugs, assault, and I want to say a third arrest for something in FLA, although that might be the assault)
Ced Wilson, Harrison, and Rainey (assault)
Reed x2 (drunken paper towel incident and for being Jeff Reed while with Matt Spaeth)
Spaeth (peeing in public)
Ta'amu (bumper cars)
Ward (DUI)
Porter(?, although this could be after he left Pittsburgh)
Siegler (for pimping. Yes, dude was a pimp. Was released shortly after training camp started after SB XL.)
Big Ben (his mototcycle incident)

I don't think there's anything wrong with that statement.
I don't think BRoeth was arrested for the motorcycle incident. IIRC Deshea Townsend was arrested for an assault. Didn't Bettis have an assault charge at some point?

Was Najeh Davenport's suitcase "incident" with Green Bay or Pittsburgh?

Patriots will exchange any Hernandez jersey at their pro shop for a different player of equal value.

The last man to tackle Aaron Hernandez in a football game was...Bernard Pollard. Some deranged Boston fan is going to have a hit put on him for ruining the Patriots.
I've had a hit on him for 5 years.

You had to have bought the jersey at the proshop or through the proshop online though. Couldn't have gotten it from a different source and exchange it. Still cool to do though.

I thought it was with Green Bay but it looks like it was his last year of college.
Prior to entering the NFL, Davenport allegedly broke into the dorm room of a Barry University woman and defecated in a laundry basket on April 1, 2002.[5] In a plea bargain, his felony charge of second-degree burglary and misdemeanor count of criminal mischief were dropped in exchange for his completing 100 hours of community service.[6] Davenport maintained his innocence after the hearing, and began yelling outside of the courthouse, "Where's the evidence? Where's the manure? I know I didn't do it – I just wanted to get it over with."[7]
During his career, Davenport was given the nicknames "Dookie"[8] and "The Dump Truck."[9] All are plays on the incident.
:lol:

Correct. He was cited on the helmet law, an expired permit, and maybe for registration and inspection on the bike, but not arrested.

Townsend was arrested for a fight in station square in 2007

Bettis? I remember what you're referring to, but I don't think he was ever arrested. Having a hard time trying to find anything on google with Bettis being arrested.

Apparently Bettis was investigated but never charged with a crime.

Chad OchoCinco Johnson can run fast for a brief amount of time. Like 24 mph on an incline fast.

Rooting for the Browns would give you a sense of humor.

Love that ESPN is now full force turning this Hernandez stuff into one big pity party for Robert Kraft and the Patriot way. No other team deals with thugs or criminals, it's just the poor naive Pats that were duped into giving a talented player a second chance

On Bill Burr's podcast this week, he was complaining about all of the people who are whining that Gronk is always, hurt, Welker is gone, and Hernandez has this. You'd think this would put that aside a bit. Also, they still have Brady. :pop:

Von Miller facing four game suspension for possible PED violation.

http://nesn.com/2013/07/report-broncos- ... ed-policy/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
The Broncos offseason, and defense, could be getting worse. All-Pro linebacker Von Miller is facing a four-game suspension from the NFL for violating the league’s performance-enhancing drug policy, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Miller, who finished second in the NFL’s Defensive Player of the Year voting in 2012, is currently in the appeals process. If the suspension is upheld, the Broncos would lose Miller for the first four games of the 2013 season, including the regular-season opener against the defending Super Bowl champion Baltimore Ravens. The suspension, while troubling for the team on the field, also adds yet another black mark to an already tainted Broncos offseason.

Maybe Hernandez can get acquitted and take over the murderer role model since Ray-Ray retired.

Thoughts on the idea that the NFL officials control tempo of play, not the teams themselves? For me, it just adds to my feelings of the college game being more entertaining than the pro game (more variety in how games are played)
