LeSean McCoy allegations
Coach Tuesday replied to FeelingOnYouboty's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The summer is for keeping it simple with fresh fruits and veggies in-season. One of my go-tos: cut fresh corn from the cob, saute it in olive oil and/or butter with garlic, fresh basil, salt and pepper. Squeeze in some lime juice and chill it in the fridge to serve as a salad. If you like, add chopped jalapeños or other peppers of your choice for some kick. Another one: use Hapless's caprese recipe but add in fresh sliced peaches (or grilled sliced peaches). And here is one of my all-time favorite recipes: super simple, cheap, somehow elegant: https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1016815-pasta-with-fried-lemons-and-chile-flakes -

I don't need to wait for the whole story to come out - I'd prefer to react based upon the "gut feelings" of some TWS posters. -

Not that it matters too much but I wouldn't be surprised if he uses a publicist to help maintain his IG account - not sure he's the one who does the posting. -
I happen to be one of our resident attorneys! The reason I think it's bizarre - and I'd usually counsel against it - is because it can easily be spun by her lawyers as "attacking the victim." He does't need to sue her in order to defend himself against her claims if he believes they're frivolous - and he could always wait until her case is dismissed before counter-suing her. If I were defending her, I'd frame his counter-suit as an effort to bully and silence her. As for your question (2) - yes generally, but in this case there should be nearly total overlap between his defense to her allegations and his claim that she made it up. As a practical matter, the evidence in both cases should be identical. As for (3), you've hit on why it may actually be a great strategy for him - if her lawyers are pressing a civil claim against him, it's very likely on contingency - meaning they are footing the bill for a chance at the upside - and she is paying nothing out of her own pocket. By counter-suing, he may be changing the economic calculus on her side of things, because her contingent fee arrangement with her lawyers may very well not extend to defending his suit - meaning that she may have to pay out of her own pocket to defend herself, meaning that she may end up proposing a "walk away" settlement. I suspect this is the main reason he filed his suit (in addition, perhaps, to seeking an opportunity to re-brand himself in the media by going on the attack).

It's not a red herring at all, and you know that. African-Americans, in particular, do not have nearly the level of confidence in the justice system that other groups enjoy. A policy such as you're suggesting will deter them from coming forward to report crimes, especially crimes against them committed by whites, because they'll (perhaps rightly) believe that they'll end up with a long-term prison sentence for simply reporting the crime. The same would likely be true for poor people, who would be deterred from reporting crimes against wealthier individuals. Back to Conley - unless he has evidence that she made up the allegations, this is a bizarre and questionable strategy, to say the least.

Sad day. Tim Graham out at Buffalo News
Coach Tuesday replied to Roundybout's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yes, and it’s not easy to write - period. Three quarters of the posters on this forum can’t write a complete, grammatically correct sentence, let alone string a page of sentences together into a coherent point. The “anyone can be a sportswriter” takes KILL me. Half of the daily thread titles here sound like they were written by a third grader or a maybe a cat sitting on a keyboard. Quality writing is soon to become an extinct art. Or maybe a dead letter... -

This is where we are in the Post-Truth Era. The internet has democratized knowledge and, at the same time, made it very difficult for print media to turn a profit. Writers are no longer sources of information like they used to be, and mainstream media as an institution has been under attack by lunatics on the fringes who think they know as much (if not more) than experts, intellectuals and reporters because, well, they read stuff online, and also by the supreme lunatic who sits at 1600 Penn. Knowledge itself is under siege - there are no pure "facts" anymore. Mix all that together with the anonymous Internet tough guys on a sports team message board, and you get a thread like this. -
