Semantics. What is the practical difference? Under our system, “not guilty” is the only available “vindication” for someone wrongly accused of a crime. No one has ever been found “innocent”.
not true. evidence (video, DNA for example) can establish actual innocence...

A reporter for the Kansas City Star is urging that Rice be cut or traded. He says, in addition to the crash, narcotics, and disregarding his victims, he left his playbook in the car.
"If those actions weren’t egregious enough, a Chiefs playbook was also left behind, according to The Star. In pro sports, a team’s playbook is sacred. Not only did Rice show disregard for public safety — he is fortunate he didn’t seriously injure someone or himself — his blatant disregard for important team documents should be a fireable offense."
oh the humanity....

This isn’t a “who should Bills draft” thread (although it’s what it turned into).
It’s a thread that’s supposed to be about what ANY draft prospect would look like on this team and what their role/production would look like, regardless of pick or position.
I think he would really fortify the IDL and would see plenty of snaps as a rookie, from both DT spots. We’d see definitely go into next year with him and Oliver the starters.
Good pick!
Here is one (trigger warning): Johnathan Brooks - RB
yeah that's every "who should the bills draft" thread on page 1...

Josh obviously isn’t working hard on his height in the off season…

No one? 👎🏻
No one has an opinion on what Troy Franklin or Marvin Harrison would look like on the Bills?
Kool-aid McKinstry?
all the opinions are already posted in the 6 other “who should the bills draft/WR” threads bro-

What point are you trying to make ? Just spit it out.. you disagree that KC has had a history of employing sh*tty people ? I think the evidence is readily available.
You want to defend this behaviour for some reason, fine by me, we’ll just agree to disagree.
ive nowhere defended him. Just pointing out the errors in your posts and questioning your conclusionsi asked a simple question. Spit it out…

lol… yeah I’m sure he just had a momentary lapse of judgment in an otherwise law abiding life, because that’s generally how one finds their way to drag racing with cars chalked full of narcotics and endangering innocent lives then fleeing with no regard to the wellbeing of your victims.
Naw, I’m gonna make the safe assumption he had garbage character while winning a title just a few months prior.
lol---now it's "chalked" full of "narcotics"? he had under 1/2 ounce of weed in the car.
anyway....who else?

I don’t think anyone believes another POS player will effect their ability to win a championship, if there’s a team who’s shown the ability to win with garbage character, It’s KC.
who were the garbage characters they won with this year (assuming Rice became a garbage character after the Lombardi)?

Unlike criminal juries, which can find a defendant guilty only if the evidence is “beyond a reasonable doubt,” the standard for civil juries is a “preponderance of the evidence” – meaning that it is more likely than not that the plaintiff's claims have been proven to be true.
you got that one right yes.
now look up “jury nullification”
get back to us

How many 1st downs from Knox Kincaid and Shakir last year compared to how many they lost via Diggs and Davis?

No you've changed the point.
He was found not guilty beyond reasonable doubt.
He was found liable for the double murders by a more sophisticated jury

It wasn't. He was found innocent. He is now dead.
There are interesting things to say about the man but judgement has been cast upon him by someone/something/somehow more than we can/did.
For a guy who prides himself on spotting weak minds...this is sooo dumb.
F OJ.
A million years ago he had a season for the ages. His greatest accomplishment is getting off on doublers homicide.

Just looked it up and.... The UFL game in St. Louis last night had a record-setting attendance of 40,317 fans at The Dome at America’s Center. This was a significant event as it set a new record for a modern spring football league game1.
That’s nearly as many watching anywhere at home…16 minutes ago, LeGOATski said:Wow, that is much higher than I expected. But St Louis really wants a football team again, I guess.
Reuben Foster is a monster in this league. He's 30 years old and I imagine he gets one final NFL contract as a backup.
lol Foster is riding toward the sunset, not the NFL.
the most impressive feature is how many 1st round picks are in this league. That and the coaches are usually guys who somehow got way past retirement age with no money in the bank

Just snag a ticket on the secondary market. you'll never be "priced out"...

That’s terrible timing for him, and you have to hope that is a very isolated incident. It’s always dumb, but right now???
EDIT: I worked with a guy who went to UGA and went back to Athens, GA to be in his buddies wedding. The groom got a DUI going 2-3 blocks from the reception to the hotel. That would be another example of bad timing!

48 minutes ago, HappyDays said:I think when you're a team like the Bills picking late year after year you have to be willing to take advantage of opportunities like this, where say the 40th ranked player on your board is available at pick 60 because of one really stupid mistake. Obviously you have to do a deep dive into the person and make sure it is in fact just one mistake, not part of a larger pattern.
Who knows, maybe he even drops all the way to day three. He isn't an elite prospect. Some teams might drop him off their board entirely and decide the risk isn't worth the player. I personally would not go that far unless I uncovered a pattern of behavior.
There is zero reason to believe this kid got busted the only time he's ever driven drunk.....

With a couple of quick Google searches, it seems that those guys knew the law very well. The possession charge is a class B misdemeanor as is leaving the scene of an accident. Both of those carry small fines and up to 180 days in the county jail. In Rice's favor, I did see that Dallas County has not been prosecuting low-level weed possession cases in recent years. A DUI accident with injuries, OTOH, is a third-degree felony that comes with 2-10 years in prison. The reckless driving is also a class B misdemeanor unless the other party is injured or they can prove that there was racing involved. All told, leaving the scene was a heartless but probably wise move in this case. He's still in a lot of trouble because there where injuries and it's pretty clear that they were racing. All that said, IANAL but I am an academic librarian so I'm pretty good at looking stuff up.
In Texas, leaving the scene of an accident where others are injured isn a felony.

2) If we are going to start caring about pot and enforcing anti-pot policies among ALL NFL PLAYERS, there will not be anyone left to play football.
Abandoning an accident scene with injured people who were receiving medical care is a serious offense.
The pot thing is not worth discussing.
in then context of DUI, it's obviously worth discussing.

I don't think they need to change anything. Keep it like pro football because that's what it is. It's not the arena league. Combined, this is the 3rd season for the USFL and 2nd for XFL. That's better than previous spring leagues, so they're figuring it out. They seem to have no trouble getting sponsors, the talent pool is better, and the game quality is better.
Not quite. Neither league could stand on it's own and folded (as they all do). UFL will suffer the same fate when the networks lose money televising these games to no one watching. How long can you produce live football games given their massive costs when you are drawing fewer than "Lost U Boats of WW2" (History) and "Rose De Guadalupe" (Univision)?

I took this to mean Big Baller Beane was going to extend his boy Miller another 250 million, fully guaranteed, so he could retire at halftime week 1....
