I am not normally a betting person, but when the Milledgeville incident was coming out, I said to my coworker, a Pittsburgh native, that I would bet him twenty bucks that at the very least Ben would be engaged by the end of the year. When he said "bullshit," I said that Dan Rooney would be exactly the type of owner who would get Ben on the carpet and say "if you want to stay on this team, you get married. Preferably to a girl from your church." My coworker took the bet, and sure enough, Ben's engagement was announced just before Christmas. And yes, it was a girl who went to the megachurch he supposedly attended. It was claimed that they met at training camp, but remembering my younger years, I can tell you that it's next to impossible to pick up an NFL player at training camp. She rarely makes public appearances. If I was married to a guy who was accused not once, but TWICE of rape, I wouldn't either.
