Trail buy fire. If in the air it would go to international law. Who knows what the rules are for that.

This has not been a good offseason for Kickers

They also accuse the Jaguars of failing to supervise McManus ...

What's the going rate for babysitters for NFL players.  Maybe I'll apply.

I will admit it, I clicked through hoping for photos.

 

This is ridiculous: The lawsuit alleges the Jaguars committed gross negligence by failing to properly hire McManus, train him about inappropriate and sexual contact with flight staff, supervise him on the flight, adopt policies and procedures to protect flight staff from sexual misconduct by its employees, and enforcing a zero-tolerance policy regarding inappropriate behavior.

 

They are just suing the deep pockets, looking for their out of court nuisance settlement.

Looks that way.

I get the attempt at humor here. However, if this was your wife, girlfriend, sister, friend... Would you still be making light of the situation? Ie: "tried to touch a booby"

Well technically he is a on an employer charted flight for a business trip. The company is also responsible for his actions and rightfully so. You don't think the brass was on that flight?

The other thread has a more appropriate title, so if it’s gonna get merged…… 🤷‍♂️

No place for any type of assault anywhere. 
 

If true dude should be convicted and out of the league forever 

[Freddie's Dead]

Disgusting behavior, and I for one believe every word of it.  Pretty horrible that no one from the Jags did anything to stop it.

The comment was made facetiously.

If the Jags fired them because McManus couldn't keep his hands to himself, then they have every right, and reason to sue.

Thank you Charlie from it’s always sunny.

Kickers, much like goalies, are a strange bunch of people.

I go out to a club, I hit the dance floor. Everyone is all bunched together. I accidentally grind up on some chick. She claims to suffer severe mental anguish. I lose my life savings. No thanks. I'll just stay home
