3rdand12 Posted June 5, 2016 Posted June 5, 2016 Sorry John but you are Wrong on this one ... Shady can speak as long as he wants ......I just want excellent RB play and he supplied this in spades with a hurt leg. We haven't had a good RB like this since we chased BEAST-MODE out of town for freaking peanuts . who need to STFU and report just facts is the buffalo news and all of their useless commentary Maybe he should just be quiet ? keep out of trouble and stay out of any spotlights. The Philly game comes to mind
Doc Posted June 5, 2016 Posted June 5, 2016 As others have said, the case is still being investigated (yeah, right, they're allowing it to die a quiet death), so Shady won't speak about it on advice from his lawyer(s) at the least. Beyond that, why should he speak to the media about a case where he was coming to the defense of a friend against what appear to be "shady" cops? Just because some moron with a cell phone took a video, sold it to TMZ, and made the case far bigger than it should have been?
H2o Posted June 5, 2016 Posted June 5, 2016 I think it is time for McCoy to (and forever more) keep his mouth shut Just play football Shady ^^^^^ THIS ^^^^^
BarleyNY Posted June 5, 2016 Posted June 5, 2016 I think it is time for McCoy to (and forever more) keep his mouth shut Just play football Shady Agreed. During the whole brawl mess the smartest thing Shady did was keep his mouth shut.
metzelaars_lives Posted June 5, 2016 Posted June 5, 2016 I think at the end of the day, the answer really is, who cares?
Buffalo Barbarian Posted June 5, 2016 Posted June 5, 2016 Skurski asserts that the Bills should have already made McCoy available to the media by now so he can address the bar brawl, and apologize. He is critical of the fact that McCoy has said nothing thus far. Thoughts? http://bills.buffalonews.com/2016/06/04/jay-skurskis-3-bills-thoughts-time-lesean-mccoy-talk/ Don't care to hear some non-sincere apology and rehash an old story, Time to move on Jay Has Skurski ever apologized for his mistakes in Buffalo News?

Dorkington Posted June 5, 2016 Posted June 5, 2016 I don't think any player or coach should be forced to talk to the media. Their lives are none of our business.

Thoughts? http://bills.buffalonews.com/2016/06/04/jay-skurskis-3-bills-thoughts-time-lesean-mccoy-talk/ i don't think there is anything to talk about. Charges haven't been pressed and the public at large probably won't ever know who was at fault. At this point better to treat it as if it never happened.
Doc Posted June 5, 2016 Posted June 5, 2016 Considering it's been over a month since the AG's office was going to look at the case, it's safe to assume it's dead.
NoSaint Posted June 5, 2016 Posted June 5, 2016 I don't think any player or coach should be forced to talk to the media. Their lives are none of our business. It's part of the contract they sign. He will have to at some point.

He is critical of the fact that McCoy has said nothing thus far. Thoughts? http://bills.buffalonews.com/2016/06/04/jay-skurskis-3-bills-thoughts-time-lesean-mccoy-talk/ Last I heard, McCoy's incident is still under active review by the PA State Attorney General's Office. Given that, I would expect that McCoy's lawyer would advise him to STFU and if McCoy were made available to the media, his repetitive answer to any questions should be "Guys, the case is still under active review, I know you want me to, but I really can't comment at this time on advice of counsel." How do they want him to address it? "I'm sorry I was at a bar at 2 am and sheet went down and the press went Bugf*ck reporting it" would surely be taken as failing to own responsibility. "I made a mistake and assaulted an officer and I'm deeply sorry for the injuries the officers suffered and the negative publicity for the team" would surely be taken as acknowledging responsibility and could have legal repercussions for McCoy.
Direhard Fan Posted June 5, 2016 Posted June 5, 2016 I would hope he knows what side of the bread the butter is on. Mum is the word. Play ball.

No, it's not safe to assume it's dead. Assume nothing. The Philly FOP has a bug up its arse about this and they will hang on like a pitbull on a beef knuckle. And once every avenue to make it a criminal case has been exhausted, there still exists the chance of civil suit, where the standard of proof is "preponderance of evidence" not "beyond reasonable doubt" McCoy should be nice about it, but he has every right to serve his own self-interest and keep silent here.

Oh, I know the Philly PD is pissed. Too bad though. After over a month under AG review and after 4 months since it happened, and still nothing, I won't assume, I'll say it's dead. At least from a criminal standpoint. Whether the officers proceed with a civil trial is anyone's guess, but they have no evidence to prove that Shady caused their injuries. Because if it did, he'd have been charged well before now.
