Nunchucks,
1) First and foremost, thanks for responding and it’s apparent you truly believe in your convictions, but...
2) Haven’t we already agreed that the windows were tinted? So where does the “driving while black” come into the picture?
3) There are assumptions, and then there are...
I can’t believe all the people here who are so transfixed with the aspect of “racism”. Sure, there could be some at play here, but let’s review the bidding before we jump to that particular conclusion:
1) ER was speeding 24 MPH over speed limit
2) ER was caught speeding and police immediately...
Not trying to shoot the messenger, DB, but to all those "experts" pushing the O-Line argument...the facts are as follows:
Falcon OL:
LT - Jake Matthews: Round 1 / #6
LG - Andy Levitre: Round 2 / #51
C - Alex Mack: Round 1 / #21
RG - Chris Chester: Round 2 / #56
RT - Ryan Schrader*: UDFA
* From...
Interesting insight...almost as if letekro himself played a part in the Wells investigation (assuming his assertions are true). Still doesn't sufficiently answer the underlying premise...that there is no basis for even asking for the cell phone....as there was no infraction that can be...
I appreciate all the wannabe (or actual) attorneys on this board (I'm a wannabe at times). It's a definite strength when it comes to understanding the landscape we face. But I'd suggest that it's not about winning a case in a courtroom, it's about winning a case in the court of public...
Wherever there is controversy...initiated by an opinion piece of internet journalism...insults, threats, and acrimony will ensue as a by-product of human nature. That's just the nature of the beast (a beast that our society has created). It's like throwing a molotov ****tail into an unruly crowd...
The bottom line is....that it's all about the bottom line (as well as each owner's perception of what they're entitled to in that process). Fan support and revenue are intrinsic to their desired outcomes.
Related perspective (across the 50 year history of Super Bowls and the financial success...
Just tuned in to the local (Wash DC) ESPN radio affiliate...Kevin Sheehan and Tom Loverro hosting....conducting an interview with Adam Shefter. Hadn't tuned in for quite some time, so was curious to hear local perspective on Patriots/DFG/TB etc. At any rate, Shefter takes it to yet another...
Goodell's letter clearly indicates there's significant group-think going on at the League office...no ability to step back and take a hard look at oneself (organizationally, or otherwise). Its tone of petulance, contradictory construct, and overall verbosity makes one wonder who's advising...
While I concur that the League will do whatever benefits them, first and foremost, I think the June 23rd date is more indicative of giving themselves sufficient time to conduct meetings with their lawyers (not necessarily Wells) to go through the game theoretic outcomes based on potential...
Thanks for that perspective RunAmok. That's how I saw it too (albeit as a 17 year old!).
I can say with confidence that no grad would find any fault in a classmate pursuing his pro sports dream, whether via a deferred commitment...the recruiter angle (see David Robinson)....or even a lesser...
Well said, MassPats38.
Actually it's after year two...and before the first academic class of your junior (3rd) year. Once you attend that first class, you have made the commitment...but up until that point you can resign with no obligation. Since most football players probably have a pretty...
Seriously? The Navy needs to "clean their own house first"?? The Navy is an institution...and a venerable institution at that. And having just celebrated Memorial Day, we should all remember that many sailors gave their lives for our freedom, to include the freedom to post unfettered opinions...
A commitment is a commitment...one that is made before entering your third (junior) year at the Academy. Up until that point, you are free to leave...no questions asked...and with no obligation incurred (i.e. back to the Navy/Govt.). There are many factors involved, to include the fact that a...
Exactly....we must remember that RK has TB on the cheap (half the salary he deserves on the open market?), so I wouldn't expect Tom to be too inclined to "take one" for Bob.
Ok, fine, but now I'd like to see Rich Levine (or anyone) do an article on Roger Goodell. Let's analyze Roger's role in all this....his "good intentions", demonstrated behavior, condoning of a sting, allowing false accusations to shape public opinion, and orchestrating leaks to the media to...
