Btw, Ben cared so much about his girlfriend that he cheated on her twice (that's documented anyways), yet I'm supposed to believe that he wanted to save his GF from being subjected to a drawn out legal battle? Ok. They weren't even living together prior to marriage, supposedly, and their relationship was hardly public. So how would a legal battle have negatively affected her?
As for the Steelers, why would they tell Ben to "just accept it" and in turn accept a 4 game suspension when he was clearly innocent? Luckily for them, they won the SB that year, which got most to shut up about the rape stuff, but prior to that, they were getting a lot of bad press. Why accept that when Ben was so clearly innocent?
Certainly seems like it would've been less trouble to just fight it, with such a reliable witness in tow.
im not 100% certain, but im pretty sure he started to dating with his wife (then gf) after the 2nd alegation (checked, looks like they started dating in 2011, met her in 2005)
they beat green bay in the super bowl the year he was suspended? (they won in 05, and 08, lost in '10)
seems like you are fuzzy on details, no big deal though

People suck
