Eminem Targets Roethlisberger (Video)

Rapper Eminem mentions Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger in his latest freestyle song, Despicable.

ā€œI’d rather turn this club into a bar room brawl. Get as rowdy as Roethlisberger in a bathroom stall.ā€

The reference is to a recent incident where Roethlisberger took a 20-year-old student into the bathroom stall of a club while a friend kept watch outside making sure no one got in. The student accused Roethlisberger of sexual assault, but Roethlisberger was never charged.

Listen to Despicable in the embedded video.

Slow News Day: Roethlisberger’s Attorney Denies Accusation

ESPN is reporting that Ben Roethlisberger’s attorney is denying that Roethlisberger assaulted a woman on the weekend.

Like really ESPN? Can’t you do another story on Tim Tebow or something?

The Roethlisberger story should be covered, but last time I checked an attorney’s job is to deny the charges.

Okay, that’s a little simplistic. If you can’t afford a good attorney, the bad (or overworked, or whatever) attorney’s job is to minimize the punishment. But high-priced attorney’s are paid to deny.

It’s like reporting on the sun rising and setting.
