I have been a Steeler fan my entire life. I have always appreciated the fact that they are a “classy” organization. They don’t put up with guys who don’t behave themselves.
For that reason, it is time for them to say good-bye to their all star quarterback. Ben has disgraced the city, the game, the fans, the NFL, and himself.
The fact that he is not being charged in a crime is irrelevant to me. There seems to be plenty of evidence that he is guilty of sexual assault and rape. This seems to be true not just in Milledgeville, GA but other places, as well.
This is not the place to recount all that he has done and who said what. I can say that the Bible says that we are to avoid even the appearance of evil. A multi-millionaire super star needs to be very careful with everything he does. He cannot believe that it won’t come out. He is always in the spot light.
We should all live like we are in the spot light. After all God sees all that we do. There’s nothing we can hide from him.
Live above reproach. Live in a way that represents the Savior well. Live like you know God is watching your every step. Be an example to the world around you. You are to be salt and light to a crooked an evil generation.
For all these reasons, please Mr. Rooney, trade Ben. Select someone worthy of the admiration of our children. We need men with strong character to cheer for. We need to be proud of the lifestyles of our players. We should be proud for our kids to wear their jerseys and look up to them. Dump Ben and get us a real man.
“Avoid every kind of evil.” (1 Thessalonians 5:22 )
“I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received.” (Ephesians 4:1)
