Ben Questions Bell's Absence From OTAs
Ben stirring things up out of the gate :stirthepot:
Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger might have contemplated retirement earlier this year, but he was in full captain mode Tuesday when he questioned why running back Le’Veon Bell was not present for the first practice of the offseason.
“I’m not worried about the chemistry, but I wish he’d be here just because he’s one of the pieces to our puzzle,” Roethlisberger said after the first OTA Tuesday afternoon. “I know he can’t participate because I don’t think he’s 100 percent healthy, but it would be nice to see him here just in terms of the chemistry and learning and being a part of this process. But obviously, it’s up to him.”

I watched that interview and the most awkward moment is when he was questioned about contemplating retirement.

Maybe thats the reason for all the RB in camp. :brick:
Re: Ben Questions Bell's Absence From OTAs
I'd rather Ben be a man about it and confront them to their face than to use the media.

I mean you don't hear the other players saying to the media, "I wish Ben wasn't such a drama queen..."

Stop refuting the media. They need something to over blow and exaggerate! :chuckle:
Ben hates Le'Veon
Ben hates Haley and vice versa
Troy hates anything related to Steel
AV is going to holdout because he hasn't signed his tender
Coates vs Martavis are on the undercard of Ben vs Haley UFC card

Exactly! It's ridiculous to make anything at all out of what he said.

He's not worried about the chemistry, but wishes he was there for the chemistry... :nerd:

Leveon just gave 750 K to his high school for the football field. Such a selfish pothead...

To save on money though they aren't planting grass, just going to let weed grow.
Re: Ben Questions Bell's Absence From OTAs
Is he still having an issue with the groin? A little concerning, IMO - it's been 4 months now.

There are 6 RB after Bell on the roster, makes me wonder also.
