    Sad, seen this before, next year's chance closing rapidly.
    Art, sees this, mumbles time for this young man to move on.

    Flip the pages change the book: Bell returns to burgh to retire!
    Will focus on largely non existent rap poet career.
    Board sides w/ acceptance, it's just a business.
    Few, less accepting, convinced real name is a lower body part.

    Of course there are differences, but I will ask again: What did Ben do illegal to get suspended? Someone posted that since Bell did nothing illegal, he can't get suspended. Then why did Ben?

    It seems the league's stance was that he brought attention to the league in a negative way with potential rape charges.
    Big differences between individuals being accused of rape and individuals who go to strip clubs. Life isn't fair. Ben is fortunate that he changed his ways. It's possible that the suspension made him realize the reality of his situation.

    Problem is he's not in camp helping the younger guys learn how to play either.

    He's a great blocker and the great players always passed something on t the next guy up. He's not doing that right now and those guys are left on their own to figure it out. That's not leadership.

    Leveon Bell is a lot of things. Leader is not one of them.

    Steelers are going to regret the franchise tag on Bell. We better hope Conner can stay healthy and Ridley has good production at RB, or it's gonna be a long year.

    So, in other words, the legality of each situation did not really impact anything. The poster who asserted Bell can't be suspended because he did nothing illegal was not accurate.

    The usual refrain I suppose.

    What you're saying is that veteran help in what they're seeing and recognizing on the field mid-play is overrated? Bell is by far one of the better blockers in the league.
    While the coaches should be able to get the young guys proficient, it would be a little beneficial for the guy to be at camp helping the other guys out however you want to slice it.
