BEN ROETHLISBERGER MENTIONED IN AN EMINEM SONG


"F**k that, I'd rather turn this club into a bar room brawl. Get as rowdy as Roethlisberger in a bathroom stall"

That's a line from the classy new Eminem song, "Recovery", which is up for your review at the Kiss Morning Freak Show Blog (and very unsafe for young ears, it's worth noting). I'm sure Roger Goodell is positively giddy with this tune hitting the airwaves in frequent rotation.

If you're scoring at home, we've now seen stories about Ben's mullet, his subsequent haircut, his slow merchandise sales, his sign being taken down at the zoo, and even one of his funded police dogs getting kicked off the force. And that's leaving out about a billion other stories about Roethlisberger that I missed. But for those who cry "overkill" at blogs and media outlets for their coverage of the story, take a look at the most read stories on the Tribune Review's website today. Three of the top six, including the top two overall, are on Roethlisberger, and we're almost two months removed from the Milledgeville story. People may say they don't care about the story any more and want to move on (as do I - honestly), but actions speak louder than words - and actions (or in this case, clicks) are indicating that Big Ben is still the the dominant topic of the day in Pittsburgh.

Man, that isn't a good pic of Eminem. Add a creepy moustache and he looks like a young version of an early-mid 20th century German dictator. Not saying the two have similar social viewpoints or anything, though.

Is Roethlisberger's brain trauma to blame for his behavior??!!

1) Classic.

2) Wow.

3) No.

I really miss the time when eminem was considered a hip hop genius... Wait, no I don't.

Brain trauma...why not? Might as well use that excuse if it will help appease the angry villagers.

While he's at it, throw in sexual addiction, ADD and his being molested as a child by the men in black. You know, all the other typical, complete BS people like to conjure up and hide behind to explain why they are just stupid humans who do stupid human things like everyone else...except everyone else doesn't want to admit it.

People like the Yinzer Mom -- who thinks if her children sees beer on the shelves in the Giant Eagle that sends the wrong message and Satan will eat their souls -- will love that Ben has a clinical name for his stupid human problem and will forgive him in church.

That piece of trash is still alive?

Plex is happy for his buddy. Although he thinks it would have been cooler to be mentioned in a song by Dre or Snoop.
