Drunk in the Stands

I went to a Browns game with my crew one time.. and our tickets turned out to be in the "Family Section," which is also the "Visitor's Section."

Why anyone in their right mind would want to subject their family members to Steelers' Fans (and also probably fans of rape and taking advantage of young girls) is beyond me.. If anything, the family section should be smack dab in the middle of the dawg pound.. hook 'em while they're young.

Anyways - the game I was at was the Green Bay game last year. Right in front of us was an uptight Packers fan and his three kids. Behind him, was Foz.

If you know Foz, then you know everything that followed. If you don't know Foz, I'll say he was hammered before the game started and immediately pissed off the Green Bay fan who was angry that a drunk showed up in the family/visitors section: "I paid a lot of money to have these seats, there should be no drinking in this section!" Okay, Green Bay fan, first of all these are the cheapest seats in the stadium, second of all, I wish that Foz would've done this to him:

Matt, I know you wanted an interesting take on this article, but all I can really say is "lol"

Roethlisberger not charged, but he's still a jerk

Ben Roethlisberger was exonerated from a crime today; but the District Attorney in Georgia made it clear that some bad things happened. Reading between the lines, you can tell that the police found evidence that Roethlisberger took advantage of the girl in question, just not to an extent that he was guilty of a crime.

The DA said the girl was extremely intoxicated, there was 'DNA' on/in her, and Ben was seen following her down a hallway and into a bathroom. So, we all know what happened. This girl was completely drunk, agreed to have sex with Ben, and then became extremely emotional when realizing (or have to confess to friends) what happened. She ran to the police 'in hysterics' and said she was 'assaulted'.

Look, only a jerk takes advantage of some girl he barely knows like that. The DA said in this case 'we don't prosecute morals'. Clearly he knows what happened too, and is calling Big Ben a huge jerk in front of everyone.

The Steelers have quite a situation now. Their Super Bowl winning quarterback is a jerk, everyone now knows he's a jerk, and they have to try to sell his jersey and get fans to support him. At this point, I will have a hard time looking at Big Ben supporters and thinking nothing more than 'that person supports a-hole athletes that take advantage of women'. And truthfully, that has nothing to do with the fact that I'm a Browns fan.
