Steeler mum on assault arrest
Steelers linebacker James Harrison didn't want to talk Sunday about his arrest a day earlier on simple assault and criminal mischief charges. "I have no comment on that," Harrison said at his Franklin Park home. Harrison, 29, is accused of slapping Beth Tibbott, 29, at her Ohio Township home on Saturday, according to a police affidavit. Tibbott told police that she and Harrison were arguing when she locked herself in her bedroom and tried to call 911. Harrison broke through the door, snapped her cell phone in half and then slapped her across the face hard enough to knock off her glasses, according to the affidavit.

Doesn't matter where you were brought up, I was always taught NOT TO HIT A WOMAN, PERIOD. I don't care what she did ,how she did it, or how many times she's done it before, you don't hit a woman.

Hard enough to knock her glasses off?? That does not seem like a very solid blow to the head. Man, you can't smack anyone these days without being charged. What would the charge have been if she had slapped him??

Wow. 9000 comments about Spygate, and only a handful of people care about a guy slapping the snot out of his lady. God, Bless America. Hopefully Roger Goodell will have enough time to give Harrison a slap on the wrist (no pun intended) after meeting with Arlen Specter and Matt Walsh.

It's because it doesn't have the words "Pacman" "T.O." or someone else in it. This guy gets a pass. But if it was Pacman it would be 1400 comments..

True, but it doesn't change the fact that people's priorities are a bit f**ked. I hope the Commish doesn't turn a blind eye to this incident.

I'm with you. But I'm sure the Commish will let the legal system play out first. Even though the guy already admitted to it..

Wanting to do it...and actually doing it is the difference between a man and a punk. And yes...I know he he is a hard hitting linebacker. Because of his size & brawn...he should have more control they anyone.

Yeah you tell em Ed Reed...people be sayin the Ravens nothin but thugs and criminals and now they have one of their own. Now he will probably play better. He did light up Ogden though in the game in Pittsburgh...must have used the same head slap he used on his broad

I ain't never hear about T.O. slapping a woman around...whatever problems he's had on the field, he's done nothing off the field. If you can defend a 242lb linebacker slapping a woman, go ahead...I won't stop you.

"Harrison drove from the house in a Hummer and was pulled over minutes later by Franklin Park police. Police said Harrison corroborated her account of the incident, according to several Pittsburgh-area media outlets."
Yep, I'll wait to the court decides it..
