Steelers drama from former players

We haven't heard from the bull yet

 

There is a good reason Ben wasn't well liked when he was younger, Kaboly said Ben was a piece of garbage in those early years. I have heard stories that Ben wouldn't sign stuff for teammates relatives when they would be around the team.

 

From 2017 when he was a coach for the Steelers:

A quote from Porter in a team statement:

Porter said in a team statement via ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, “I regret that I was involved in an incident that could have been a distraction to our team,” Porter said. “Most importantly, I regret that I touched the police officer and I sincerely apologize for that action. Thankfully, no one was injured.”

Porter pleads no contest to punching Levi Jones at a blackjack table. It wasn't just Porter. Several others joined in to assault Jones: https://www.espn.com/nfl/news/story?id=2887487

The NFL fined him three game checks $141,176 for his actions during the incident: https://www.nfl.com/news/nfl-fines-porter-for-las-vegas-scuffle-09000d5d80028502

Showing his players by example how to conduct themselves and how to be a good teammate, coach, and leader.

Porter is a real leader and he knows leadership when he sees it.....Just ask him.

Spitting on people, incidents with police, shot outside a bar, plead no contest to battery for punching Levi Jones at a blackjack table with multiple other males assaulting Jones, suspended from games, many personal foul penalties that hurt the team, never listening to the coach and running his about other teams' players before games, guaranteeing wins that his teammates have to make stand up.

Porter is lucky he's not in a cell or much worse for some of the stuff he was involved in.

 

I always wondered why some of them didn't try moving south. I know if I was homeless, southern winters would have to be better than Iowa ones.

 

Also servers and other service industry workers despised him. Where there is smoke there is usually fire.

 

Really

What else do they have to do but walk south

 

Unfortunately, I don't think that's how the minds of many of the people in that situation work.

 

Was just reading and watching some of the stuff on this dumpster fire of drama. It's really sad in my opinion. Porter and all those agreeing and encouraging him are just driving home the point of what many have been saying for more than a decade about Tomlin. Now Tomlin detractors can just say "see, I told you Tomlin couldn't control his players" and "I knew Tomlin changed the culture for the worse". Now the Steelers are acting like other whiny@zz organizations full of drama and malcontents. It's sad really watching a bunch of grown men act like a bunch of women in a knitting circle. Heck what Ben and deebo said wasn't anything bad or besmirching Tomlin's character or anything. They just gave honest opinions. I kept hearing from friends about it and seeing headlines until I finally researched it. It's sad and embarrassing in my opinion. Ready for this new era to begin and I hope like heck it resets in a good way and McCarthy doesn't put with it.
