Trib: Steelers unsure if QB's suspension will be cut

[X-Terminator]

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell plans to visit the Steelers' camp on Aug. 5, but the stop is not specifically related to Roethlisberger's six-game suspension for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy. Goodell is visiting seven training camps during the first week of August.


Goodell said the suspension could be reduced by two games if Roethlisberger has no more behavioral issues and does all that is asked by the league. Roethlisberger was suspended April 21 after being accused of, but not charged with, sexually assaulting a Georgia college student in March.

I think he'll reduce it. I don't think Ben will give him a choice because I'll guarantee Ben will meet all the criteria set forth in the intitial ruling. In fact the story reads nothing like the headline, because reading the story you get the idea that it's more likely than not it will be reduced and reading the headline gives the opposite impression. I reamin catiously optimistic Ben will be back in time for the fifth game.

I'll bet the husband and the precious baby that it's reduced!
