DreamOnDan Posted April 9, 2008 Author Share Posted April 9, 2008 Did you like James Lofton? You know why Green Bay traded him away? Sexual assault charge How about Cornelius Bennett? Sexual assault with 35 days in jail How about Bruce Smith? 2 time DUI + 2 time loser in substance testing Darryl Talley? Assault and DUI Thurman Thomas? Marijuana Damien Covington? Drugs and shot dead The list continues. let's not kid ourselves here. If in 10 years he had one physical altercation with a woman, admitted guilt, completed his program, showed contrition he's fine by me. The keg thing is stupid college crap and he stood up and took the blame for that too. Amen Brotha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndirish1978 Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Bruises and a torn shirt are a far cry from simple word of mouth. Oh, and I'm sure all of you considered the possibility that she was asked to lie to the police when charges came up either cause he was sorry or to not affect the money coming her way once he gets drafted.

RayFinkle Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 How much you want to bet that the only "big misunderstanding" is how small her long-time boyfriend's paychecks were going to be if he wasn't drafted (or drafted way low)? B-I-N-G-O! baby's momma wants to get paid too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marv brought him on board though. So, let's stop with the character stuff, especially since Marv is not even here any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerball Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Amen Brotha Big difference between then & now in terms of $$$ and the cap. Teams have much more to lose today then they once did. Today you make a mistake with a high priced player and you pay and pay and pay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The keg thing is stupid college crap and he stood up and took the blame for that too. I know the list, trust me. But if you can see the problem child before he gets to your door step than the decision is to not draft him. We arent talking players on a team already, we are taking about prospective players.

Today you make a mistake with a high priced player and you pay and pay and pay Right but the flip-side of that is also true, you draft a choir-boy that ends up being a lame talent and you pay and pay and pay. Just sayin' Btw, my bro(goes to IU) says Hardy is the bomb and that everyone he's ever met that knows him personally says he's a good guy. Sure it's 4th? hand hearsay, but it's not negative. Also, if there's one thing we have seen is that real problem children seem to have a pattern of bad behavior, as opposed to one incident(the beer thing isn't even worth talking about). It seems that there isn't much else wrong with this guy except this one incident. So who knows? We sure as hell need a tall WR and that this guy plays two sports is the interesting thing for me.

Do you get the feeling that every team that passes on this guy is gonna regret it? He has special tools. It would be a great addition to our red zone offense. The Bills can get into the red-zone just fine. He could score 10 or more touchdowns evey season. What else does anyone want? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubj04 Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Once again, you are way off base. Let me try to explain.... While you were in college, having sex, getting high, losing your temper, etc., did you ever beat up an infant? I ask because doing so is not the same as shoving your girlfriend, which is not at all good. We are talking about a defenseless baby. Can't you see the difference? I am not judging you. This is about a guy who kicked a baby's ass. Don't you see? Didn't see the article either, but would like to know if it's true. Can you tell me where to find it?
