Even if the Pittsburgh Steelers trade Ben Roethlisberger sooner rather than later, it won’t change the bottom line. Quicker than you can say Bill Belichick, Spygate and cover-up in the same sentence, the grassy knoll lives again in the NFL.
This is a conspiracy for two reasons: the silly length of Roethlisberger’s suspension and the highly suspicious timing of it all.
I mean, just four to six games?
What a joke. What’s more laughable is to hear those applauding NFL commissioner Roger Goodell for his toughness. You have others grumbling that the punishment was too severe, but here’s the truth: Eight games to a year was more appropriate for a player accused of rape twice within nine months. He also stiff-armed orders from former Steelers coach Bill Cowher in 2006 by riding a motorcycle, and then the helmet-less quarterback nearly died in a crash.
If nothing else, courtesy of those other suspensions by Goodell — ranging from eight games for Tank Johnson and Chris Henry to an entire season for Pacman Jones — consistency says Roethlisberger deserved more than this.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Police will not file charges against the fiancee of late Cincinnati Bengals receiver Chris Henry in connection with his death last month.
Charlotte-Mecklenburg police announced Wednesday that there was no evidence that Loleini Tonga drove recklessly or with excessive speed last month when Henry came out of the back of her pickup truck on a curvy, residential road and suffered fatal injuries.
“The speed limit on Oakdale Road is 35 mph and the estimated speed at the time of accident was between 19-23 mph,” police said in a statement.
Police say Henry and Tonga were arguing at home owned by Tonga’s family in northwest Charlotte on the morning of Dec. 16 when Tonga attempted to drive away. A witness said he saw a shirtless Henry jump into the back of the truck.
A 911 caller said she saw Henry beating on the back window as she drove behind the truck. About a minute later, another 911 caller said he saw an unresponsive man laying in the road.
Henry died a day later of blunt-force trauma to the head. He was 26.
“Homicide detectives interviewed Ms. Tonga who was cooperative throughout the duration of the investigation,” police said. “Her statement was consistent with witness accounts. However, there were no witnesses that actually saw how Mr. Henry came out of the back of the truck.”
Tonga told ESPN this week that Henry jumped out of the back, but was not trying to harm himself. She said she thinks Henry thought he would land safely and may have been scared because he saw someone calling the police.
