It's because everybody is a Steelers or Cowboys fan. So Goodell is like, oh, he's a Steeler= automatics shorten sentence. I wish his suspension was more than 6 games.

i wish it would have been the whole year, i mean the guy did it to a made in a hotel, which even told her to be quiet about it a couple years ago, the almost kills himself on his motorcycle which it says in your contract your not suppose to ride 1, then he does it to a college student where his bodyguard blocked the door and he was already in the girls bathroom. dosne t sound like hes learned anything except a 100 million dollar contract can buy ppl to be quiet, what happens if it happens next year, then what happens, do u do the same thing and say he learned his lesson just another slap on the wrist bc its civil court, which he knew the police so they watched his back and 1 even got caught in a lie and got fired for protecting him. its amazing the 1st one had ppl threating to kill her and said to leave ben alone and now he has police watching his back, they shouldnt let money buy there soul, he needs to be punished or its going to keep happening, and what happens if someone catches him in the act and he hurts someone, thats on the ppl hepling him bc hes not going to stop until he knows its over if he keeps doing this

Maybe Santonio Holmes should appeal his suspension and ask for a reduced sentence, as well. He only broke the fabled "NFL Substance Abuse Policy." He hasn't done anything bad since then (as far as I know). Big Ben abused and (allegedly) raped women. Santonio did drugs. At the very least, both are bad. So why does one player get off easier than the other?
