Mike Florio: "Team spokesman Burt Lauten tells PFT that Roehtlisberger was consulting his black, plastic wristband that contains the play calls for the game. Roethlisberger kept the wristband in his sweatshirt, removing the device throughout the game to examine it."




^^^^The NFL and the Steelers say that these are the same thing

I wonder how the f*ck they know. Were they there? Did they ask the Steelers? Gee.

I believed it at first until I took a second look at the picture. I would have believed them more now if they said it was a damn beeper with no information on it but the phone number that paged it.

^^^the NFL and the Steelers say that these are the same thing, the black wristband on the left, and the blue cell phone that has chrome-colored volume and power buttons on the side.

FYI it wasn't blue, the colors are messed up in that picture. It WAS black...with the volume controls you expect on any top-of-the-line armband.

again amazed at the blatant disregard to actual rule violations on other teams by the NFL*

what a crock of ****

If they had just come out and admit they cheated it wouldn't have been a big deal and we could move on, now they've made it a big deal.

Well, purple is the new black

SMH

Can't wait for the ESPN interview
"So Ben who were you getting the Ravens playcalls from and how are you guys able to relay the info so fast to change up the play?"

LOL. Like the kid in class trying to sneakily text someone then when the teacher calls him out it's "I was just messing with my fingernails!"

Okay, Ben. Hand over your phone, now. Der Kommisar has called Ted Wells, and he wants it. Expect results in 4-5 months as Ted looks for ways to prove you didn't do anything wrong, and fails. Again.

Shouldn't be any problem handing that over, right Ben? Or does it have pictures on it of your latest rape victims? SCUM. BAG.

Well there's only one way to know for sure (and thus protect the integrity of the game): We need to see Ben's phone so we can see if there were any texts sent out during the game. If he's innocent he'll have no problem handing it over, I assume?

He was playing Madden on a PSP. Isn't that what you young people do when you go to live events?

Beat me by half a second!

Thats a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge with the case.

Nailed it.

Thats obviously a cell phone. Its one thing for the steelers to denie it, but its another for the NFL to come out and cover for them. It appears theres a conspiricy between the steelers and the nfl to cheat.

Wow, someone national needs to run with this. The NFL and Steelers are obviously trying to sweep this under the rug. Integrity my ass.
