Brodney PoolThe NFL's free safety wheel continues to spin this offseason. Less than a week after dealing Kerry Rhodes to Arizona -- who needed to replace Antrell Rolle -- the Jets found Rhodes' replacement in free agent Brodney Pool.

Pool reached an agreement with New York Thursday night. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that Pool's deal will be for one year and $1.3 million.

Cleveland made Pool the 34th-overall pick in the 2005 draft and he developed into a steady starter for the Browns. Pool started all 16 games in 2007, 15 in 2008 and 10 last year. But he missed the final five games of 2009 with a concussion.

Darrent WilliamsHopefully, peace comes now to the family and friends of Darrent Williams. His killer, Willie D. Clark, is no longer alleged, but guilty.

Can we now ask all professional athletes to pause and learn from this? To avoid putting yourselves and your money, status, talent and misguided machismo in these can't-win scenarios? You may think you've earned your way into bottle service in the VIP room at the club, behind the velvet rope or inside the darkened hallway, where your young, entitled nights can be enjoyed freely and recklessly.

You are targets. You are not invincible. You may cause trouble or invite it, simply because of who you are, who you are with or what you think you may be.

Please. Stop and think. Look at what can happen.

Ben Roethlisberger
The news just gets worse and worse for Ron Mexico Roethlisberger. That's bad news for all of us who want to take the high road.

Anytime somebody is accused of a crime we invoke "innocent until proven guilty" and giving people the "benefit of the doubt." Then I read where Roethlisberger was in a bathroom last Friday night.

Not just any bathroom, but a women's bathroom.

At a college bar. At 2:30 a.m. With an underage 20-year-old coed.

This raises a few questions: Was the men's room full? Is Big Ben a closet transvestite? Did the girl request a private reenactment of Roethlisberger's 2006 motorcycle crash?

Yeah, that's it. Then she slipped, banged her head, and encountered Roethlisberger's DNA and suddenly got $$$ in her eyes.
