(a) The Ravens/Steelers rivalry is huge.
(b) Roethlisberger in particular has been a thorn in the side of the Ravens.
(c) He is, reportedly, an asshole.
(d) Hiding behind his security detail, he took sexual advantage of a drunk girl at a bar in Georgia.
(e) On a personal level, he appears to be the lowest form of filth.
(f) He does have talent on the football field.

Still, given (a) through (e), don't act surprised that Ravens fans will talk about his flaws on a Ravens mesage board. Your boy has been in the news almost non-stop for *years*, acting like an a-hole or a dummy or both. How about we stop talking down about Roethlisberger when Steelers fans shut up about the murder charge, which was dropped, against Ray Lewis? Over ten years ago?

I think that would be unfair to us, because Roethlisberger does not stop with the stupid and bad ever and Ray has righted his character ship, but at least it would be *something*.

I imagine so. Afterwards he continued on to about 5-6 other teams, including a successful stint in chicago.

And since then, he's stated repeatedly how much he respects the Steelers, Cowher etc.

But yes, he does think Ben's a drama queen too.
