July 22, 200917 yr No they actually agreed w/ me. Most Steelers fans from my experience feel sorry for Bengals fans. There is no rivalry and even though the Bengals got lucky enough to draft a good QB it has turned into 1 playoff game for the franchise. We all know who the better franchise is. No Steelers fan IMO can say anything about Chris Henry if they cheered for Davenport.Glad he's gone.
July 22, 200917 yr That's him. I had so much fun w/ Steelers fans that afternoon who loved him every time he touched the ball. :lol: I remember that game. Our entire section was chanting "wife beater" every time he touched the ball.
July 22, 200917 yr :lol: I remember that game. Our entire section was chanting "wife beater" every time he touched the ball. If opposing teams fans yelled the list of charges of Bengals players, you'd be crying about it...
July 22, 200917 yr Problems with this case: -No police report filed. Sorry, no matter what, if she was raped at SOME point she should have called the police. -One year. That's a LONG time. -Straight to civil court. Smells like a money grab, and she probably figures he'll HAVE to settle so she gets some cash no matter what (on a side note, if Ben is innocent, he should fight this even if it costs him 10X as much as settlement). -Reno, NV- Prostitution is legal. Ben is uber-wealthy. If he wanted some nookie, he'd have just hired a prostitute. (Note: I don't believe Kobe raped that girl. I don't care for him at all, and I think he's a dirtbag for cheating on his wife, but he raped no one) Not necessarily on your first point. Many times rapes go completely unreported because the victims are afraid, embarrassed, etc.
July 22, 200917 yr Forgive me, but I'm not buying the horrifying experience plea for the reason to wait a year. She would have AT LEAST filed a police report, and at that time, you would assume legal proceedings would have began. Most rape cases go unreported. National research indicates that most sexual assaults are never reported to police. The best data on unreported crime comes from victimization surveys. The surveys interview representative samples of adults and/or adolescents asking if they have been victims and if they reported the crimes. Some surveys also ask why victims did not report these crimes. The National Crime Victimization Survey, conducted each year by the U.S. Department of Justice, found that only 32% of sexual assault cases were reported to police in 1994. The Rape in America survey conducted as a part of the National Women’s Study found that only 16% of rape cases were reported to police or other authorities (Kilpatrick, Edmonds & Seymour, 1992). Data from the National Survey of Adolescents indicated that only 14.3% of sexual assault cases had been reported. Thus, these national studies indicate that somewhere between 14% and 32% of all sexual assaults or rapes are ever reported to police. Statistics found here.
July 22, 200917 yr Najeh Davenport is the RB he's referring to, and yes, he beats women. He is no longer on the team...
July 22, 200917 yr If opposing teams fans yelled the list of charges of Bengals players, you'd be crying about it... Hardly. I just want people to be consistent. The Bengals really didn't have that many more incidents than some other teams, but we heard nothing about any of those teams.
July 22, 200917 yr Hardly. I just want people to be consistent. The Bengals really didn't have that many more incidents than some other teams, but we heard nothing about any of those teams. :lol: "If I keep say it, then will it be true" :lol:
July 22, 200917 yr :lol: "If I keep say it, then will it be true" :lol: It is true. The Chargers had just as many. I believe the Vikings were pretty close as well. Never heard a word about them....
July 22, 200917 yr Hardly. I just want people to be consistent. The Bengals really didn't have that many more incidents than some other teams, but we heard nothing about any of those teams. Probably because of the number of Bengals fans on the board... :ohbrother: Same goes with UK.

July 22, 200917 yr Why would a 2 time Superbowl winner have to force himself on anyone? Something's fishy here Robin.....fishy....could it be..Penguin!!!!
