'Rapelisberger' T-Shirt Offers New Way To Taunt Ben Roethlisberger
<snip>

"Just when it seems Ben Roethlisberger may have turned a corner and that his alleged sexual assault scandal may finally be dropping out of the day's news, something new pops up. When it looked like the NFL Draft would bury Roethlisberger for several days, jeering fans made sure nobody forgot about the Steelers quarterback.

On Monday, it was reported that Roethlisberger spent the weekend being evaluated at a clinic.

Now, a new product is available for fans who want people to remember Roethlisberger's most controversial moments, and this one may be available even if the NFL stops selling customized THERAPIST Steelers jerseys. An enterprising shirtmaker is selling "Rapelisberger" T-shirts for $14.99, complete with a "no means no" badge on the front.

The shirt's web site claims that the items are "a must have for Cleveland, Cincinnatti, and Baltimore fans." Demand is purportedly "overwhelming."

1. Really?
So does Kobe play for the Los Angeles Rapers, and are they selling shirts for that? Because his incident was, you know, alleged, too, since he wasn't proved guilty.

2. really?!
i must've missed the part of the article that said they were selling Pittsburgh Rapers jerseys. it's a black shirt with gold lettering. it in NO WAY references the city of Pittsburgh, or the Steelers org. and if you don't think Kobe faced a lot of heat in hostile cities after his ALLEGED rape incident, then you really weren't paying very close attention, were you.

Not aimed at you, but at the woman in that pic.
