There are at least 3-4 other indiscretions that have been substantiated around town that seem to be within his realm of behavioral possibilities. When your alleged best pick-up move is to unzip your pants, expose yourself and say "do whatever you want", you are not representing your employer very well. There is a consistent pattern of sub-human behavior which casts your business in a bad way you have to do something.
I also wish he would walk away from the Steelers and retire. IMO if he walked away or was not a pro athlete he would already be in jail or beaten to a pulp. Either way he would not be a exposing himself or forcing himself on star struck college co-eds.

Tom - if not for the "modern" media, Babe Ruth would have been canonized.... I'm in no way dismissing his actions, he's a first class azshole, and an absolute piece of sh1t...
The sad reality is that Pittsburgh has no answer without him, and at the end of the day, that's all they look at.... - Fortunately they could stick Beetlejuice behind center and still sell out Heinz Field.
