IFWT_CHRIS ROCK

Comedian Chis Rock is never one to hold his tongue and has been on fire lately as he promotes his new movie “Top 5”.  A major topic lately is Bill Cosby and the numerous women that have accused him of rape.  Well there’s another person that has that accusation tied to him.  Chris Rock says Ben Roethlisberger the “Original Cosby”. Hit the jump for video.

Via TMZ Sports:

Apparently, Chris Rock is not a Ben Roethlisberger fan — calling the Pittsburgh Steelers QB the “Original Cosby” during a media event in Baltimore last night.

Rock was addressing the crowd before a screening of his new movie “Top 5” when he said, “I was getting ready to say something really bad about Roethlisberger … he’s the original Cosby.”

Rock is clearly harkening back a few years — when two different women accused Big Ben of rape in two different cities.

Roethlisberger was first accused of sexually assaulting a woman in Lake Tahoe back in 2008. He ultimately settled with his accuser and was never charged with a crime.

The second alleged incident went down in Georgia in 2010 … when Ben allegedly assaulted a woman in a nightclub bathroom. He was investigated by cops but never charged with a crime.

Ben was never accused of drugging the women … unlike Bill Cosby who has been accused of giving women pills before taking advantage of them.

After Rock cracked the joke … he realized the comment might spark some controversy — saying, “That’s horrible … that’s gonna go everywhere.”
