PITTSBURGH -- Ben Roethlisberger got the privacy he wanted for his wedding Saturday, with police providing tight security around the church in affluent Ohio Township where he and Ashley Harlan were married and tinted windows on expensive cars leaving much of the guest list a mystery.

Still, the hope of a glimpse at the Pittsburgh Steeler quarterback, his new bride and the dozens of team luminaries who turned out for the ceremony was enough for Dolly Metz to sit in a car -- complete with Steelers covers on the headrests -- in a nearby parking lot with the windows down in 90 degree heat.

“I guess you left your sense of humor in ‘Nam.”

Please help me understand where the humor is in “Minn’s” comments about Ben Roethligsburger’s wedding. Then, perhaps, I can respond to your comment above.

Considering Ben's past, I find the ridicule fitting.

You are either a relative of his or you have no sense of humor. Either way, you're coming off as a tool.

I get just as upset when people take cheap shots at Nolan Ryan, Ronald Reagan, Jim Brown or Rush Limbaugh. Cheap shots are just an indication that the person making the charge has no respect for the target.

It was a cheap shot that got me angry. OK, I’m done.

Cheap shot? Ben has put himself in the line of fire.

Rush, Nolan Ryan and Jim Brown? You are off your rocker. No comparison.

Grow up.

Life has to have an empty spot when you require your wedding guests to wear entry bracelets.

I'll keep my plain vanilla life, thanks very much.

Proof?

While some people cosider obtuseness a virtue, it is generally just the obtuse that do.

That six game suspension he willingly accepted and all the contrition he attempted to exhibit was for what exactly, if not for a rape he was very fortunate to not be criminally charged for?

To bad it does not mean women are safe from being raped by him.

Proof? Are you serious? The only reason he is not hoeing beets in Valdosta is because the victim declined to prosecute.

>>> Ben is looking forward to his first experience with consensual sex tonight.

You just might be correct. I don’t recall ever even hearing of this guy before but he does seem to get around.

Ben Roethlisberger Beats 3rd Rape Charge

April 12, 2010 Latest News-Politicol – Celebrity favoritism strikes again and those who heard today that Ben Roethlisberger beat his 3rd rape charge are not accepting the findings of the district attorney who dropped the charges. Alcohol plays a part in all rapes however it is not a reason to drop charges.

The alleged rape was in Miledgeville Georgia and the charges were dropped due to lack of evidence gathered by the DA office. This man was accused 3 times already although his case of being sued by a woman in Reno Andrea McNulty is still pending from 2 years ago.

That new bride has to be more nervous than Michael Vick’s new pet Cocker Spaniel...
