Ben Roethlisberger Suspension

Ben Roethlisberger is slated to be out 4 to 6 weeks as part of a game suspension.  The Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback was in violation of the NFL's league personal conduct policy.  Many believed the suspension would last up to 8 games but sources were telling ESPN that will not be the case.

Last month a 20-year-old college student accused Roethlisberger of sexually assaulting her in a Georgia nightclub. Last week, prosecutors decided not to charge Roethlisberger in the case.

The Steelers have begun contacting teams to see if they would be willing to trade a top 10 pick for Roethlisberger, an NFL source told NFL Insider Schefter.

SBG Global had the Steelers still with favorable odds of winning the 2011 Super Bowl at +1250 for a potential $1250 payout on every $100 bet.
