    Oh T.O... Why must you stir the pot?

    Anyone who follows T.O. on twitter was awakened by this this morning.

    terrellowens81: I WANT ALL THT FOLLOW ME 2 THINK ABOUT THIS 4 A SEC...I'M GLAD I DIDN'T, HVN'T & WOULD "NEVER" ASSAULT ANY1. HOW BOUT THAT 4 "SCRIPTED?"
    The guys at ESPN who masturbate to his page will be all over this if they decide to point it out, I bet Jim Rome is salivating. If it wasn't obvious, it was about soon to be fellow reality show persona Ben Roethlisberger.
    Bye Bye Brady...

      T.O. has a point. ESPN constantly bashes and makes jokes about him, but you don't see him getting in fights at strip clubs, getting DWI's, sexually assaulting women, or breaking the law like plenty of other guys do.

      ESPN refuses to even report on Roethlisberger.

        You're a Bills fan, and I can see how you're making bad judgement. One, you can prove that TO is being a hassle and a pain. The other, you got a known good person getting accused of a huge crime. Until there's more details, ESPN should use its journalistic integrity, and not report this.

          Usually, if it is a story, it is reported.

          How do we know that he is a known good person?

            That's just not fair. Do we know the details of the alleged incident yet?

              Because if it was TO being accused it would be national headlines.
              I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
              "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
              You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
              It was all
              true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
              He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
              mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

                It is a story, it is news. To wait for details is probably right, but doesn't happen much. It might not be fair, but it is what it is.

                  Oh, when Cory MacIntyre was arrested for indecent exposure, didn't that make the front page of ESPN and such, even if he barely plays?

                  If ESPN sat on the story, I have to wonder why.

                      Why does everyone care so much about what ESPN reports? It's the headline of CNN, Fox Sports, etc. I don't think you guys would feel so slighted if TO wasn't on your team.

                        In the real world, yes. For superstar athletes you are given it unless you do something to lose it.

                          I think you're way off here. Just because TO is a whiner and in the public eye more than Big Ben, doesnt mean the accusation should be taken more lightly.

                          Roethlisberger is a dumbass and his track record proves that. Im not saying hang the guy... but cover the story.
                          I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"

                            BTW I should mention i think Ben is innocent in this case... I think this Andrea chick is a whack job.
                            But picking and choosing what to discuss by player just doesn't seem like fair and balanced journalism.

                              What is the evidence that suggest T.O. is a criminal?
