Goodell wants to have a sit down with Roethlisberger

Uh oh. Roger Goodell, who is not a guy you wanna have a meeting with if you find yourself in trouble, wants to have a sit down with the Steelers franchise QB:

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell is taking the sexual-assault allegations against Ben Roethlisberger “very seriously” and said he plans to meet with the Steelers quarterback. “First, I think the most important thing is that we take the issue very seriously,” Goodell said Monday at the NFL Annual Meeting in Orlando, Fla. “We are very concerned that Ben continues to put himself in this position.” Goodell revealed he has spoken to Steelers president Art Rooney directly about the allegations, and also plans to meet with Roethlisberger “at the appropriate time.” Police in Milledgeville, Ga., are still investigating a 20-year-old female college student’s accusation against Roethlisberger but no criminal charges have been filed in the case, in which the woman accused Roethlisberger, 28, of sexually assaulting her in a Milledgville, Ga., nightclub earlier this month.

    Is this the middle (can’t really call it the beginning, can we) of the end of Big Ben leading the Steelers offense?
