There’s a pretty big difference between getting into a wreck where everyone walks away versus someone being killed. It was a stupid situation, and I’m sure he’ll face some sort of consequence, but it’s not like he’s OJ Simpson or Von Miller. damn putting Von in the same breath as OJ is pretty ballsy,….. 😂 1 1 Quote

Rice was incredibly lucky that his stupidity didn’t have a worse ending. I’m not condoning his actions, nor does it make even the tiniest bit of difference what I think should happen to him. The reality is that it was a traffic accident that resulted in no major injuries. He’s got enough money to afford a competent attorney, so the odds of him seeing the inside of a jail cell are virtually nil. I realize he plays for the team that keeps winning Super Bowls so everyone here wants to pretend that the book will be thrown at him, but that’s little more than fan fiction. Carter did not crash his car. He was racing with the woman who did. She was way over the legal BAC limit when she crashed her car, killing herself and one of her passengers. Same stupid drag racing, less serious results for Rice. Carter still has a huge lawsuit against him. Edited April 1 by BarleyNY 1 Quote

Here's the exact string. You made the following comment, my/your/my/your/etc. responses are in order. This was your first/original comment to which I made my comment: Quote The Chiefs were searching for Rice the entire first half of the season. My response (and correcting the spell-check for Diggs): Quote As a rookie. It'd be nice if we'd draft a WR late in round 2 about where our 60th pick is this year, that would put up 577 yards and 4 TDs in the second half of his rookie year. At that rate he'll be as productive as Diggs has been for us. Yours: Quote Psssssst. What if we told you....the entire season counts? (You really are becoming entirely predictable) Mine: Quote Pssssst. We were talking playoffs. Pssssst. Once the postseason hits, the regular season counts for nothing. (You are entirely predictable) My point with that last one was that the original conversation before you entered into it, was about playoff performances of players. IOW, the context was playoffs, and you put it in the context of Regular Season. To which I responded pointing out that the context was playoffs, and with the underlying well-known understanding that it's not our regular seasons that have been issue-laden, it's our playoffs, with the point otherwise being, and given your criticism of a rookie WR in his first NFL games, was that we should be so lucky to get a WR like Rice late in round 2. Your hounding me out-of-context is the most predictable thing here. Otherwise, if you want to talk about a WR, in this case Rice, in the playoffs, 26 catches for 262 Yards and a TD in four playoff games, as a rookie, is more than any rookie WR of ours, besides Davis, has put up in any four playoff games over the past three postseasons. It's more yards in the playoffs than any other WR we have on our roster has put up in postseason play as well. So when we draft a WR that does that as a rookie, shake me awake. So yeah, it'd be a great thing to land a WR late in round 2 that could do that, at least I think so. Apparently you disagree and think we're doing a better job of finding WRs at rookie pricing/contracts. So I suppose that we'll simply have to agree to disagree. I'm fine with that. Keep in mind that I'm making zero mention of his off-field issue here, merely his onfield performance. We're finished here. At least I am. Quote

They’ll get his credit cards, lean in his friends, and maybe even pull phone records to get a bead on where he was and if he was drinking before the accident. They’re gonna work this one. Quote

If he was a passenger, then you're right. I have not heard anything about him being a passenger. The cynic in me notes that of course he was a passenger, and of course the driver didn't have any more than two drinks, if he had a drink at all. Nobody ever has more than two drinks before a DWI, and rich dudes who were present in their vehicle at the scene of a bad accident but who have less monied friends with them never were driving the car. 1 Quote

boyst Posted April 1 Posted April 1 the dude is in the league. it's going to be warshed over real quick. fall guys in place, etc. anyone thinking the guy gets any real punishment from law enforcement is silly. he's not like us - he is protected. he probably won't even get penalized for the league. 1 Quote

They have the better GM and even better HC “Triggered”? It’s newsworthy. My post has zero editorial context aside from what was being reported. Quote
K D Posted April 1 Posted April 1 Chiefs fans: "How do we know it was him?" Video comes out of crash "That could have been someone else driving" Photos of him leaving the scene "That's not him, it could be anybody" His football cleats found in the car "Nobody died, it's not a big deal, maybe he will get suspended 1-2 games" 2 Quote
