    Steelers extend Big Ben 2 years, $68 million on top of his remaining year.
    Deal includes a $ 37.5 million signing bonus and a $30 million injury guarantee . Should be his final deal ending his career with Pitt.

    good deal and he deserves it for sure. it's crazy because that who QB class is almost out of the league and all ahd good careers. i cna't see eli playing past the 2019 season and rivers should be done after the 2020 season along with ben. but then again with brees and brady playing great in their early 40s still, who knows

    From what I understand, the Steelers didn’t want to do it but Ben forced it on them.

    Ben has figured out how to get paid. Chase all the other high priced talent off the team.

    Yeah once Roethlisberger, Rivers, and ***** are retired, the AFC will belong to Mahomes, Mayfield, Luck, Watson, and *gasp* Darnold? (Grant me this wish O great football gods!)

    luck is already kinda up there but yeah it seems the AFC as usual is leading the way for QBs. the NFC is still pretty weak overall. they got wilson and rodgers and that's it and I don't see any young up and coming QBs either.

    "Ben asked us to go to his 'VIP' area (back of Capital). We all went with him. He said there were shots for us, numerous shots were on the bar, and he told us to take them. His bodyguard came and took my arm and said come with me, he escorted me into a side door/hallway, and sat me on a stool. He left and Ben came back with his penis out of his pants. I told him it wasn't OK, no, we don't need to do this and I proceeded to get up and try to leave. I went to the first door I saw, which happened to be a bathroom. He followed me into the bathroom and shut the door behind him. I still said no, this is not OK, and he then had sex with me. He said it was OK. He then left without saying anything."

    Right, so different context to what I was thinking, obvs knew about his rapey past but didn't put the two things together and was thinking it was more football terms.

    Cheers, just how did he get away with that as well btw?
