Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger likely will be suspended at the start of the 2010 season, and the move could cost him millions. According to his contract, Roethlisberger has a base salary of $8.05 Million this upcoming season and therefore, it would cost "Big Ben" $473,529, or one-seventeenth of his salary, for every game he is forced to sit. In addition, Roethlisberger also could lose a small percentage of his $25.2 Million signing bonus if the Steelers choose to pursue it. Source: ESPN
I don't feel sorry for him one bit. He keeps trying to put his dipstick in the wrong engines and that's what he gets.
Pshhh that's nothing to him. Pocket change. If the threat of prison and prison rape didn't deter him from being a (alleged) rapist and (proven) all-around scumbucket, then I doubt losing money would. I know I sure personally value freedom and the structural integrity of my precious virgin poopchute considerably more than I value money, and I don't have millions to throw around like it's nothing like an NFL QB does.
