    That's because the legal process hasn't played out with Rice yet. The league doesn't hand out suspensions until after criminal charges or civil suits have been completed. Save for heinous acts caught on video (like with Ray Rice), that will have the league put you on an exempt list until things play out.

     

    To suspend before legal matters are resolved would be to assist Prosecution or Plaintiff's attorneys by giving them an institution to point to that has already completed their own investigation and held the player responsible for the crime or allegation.

     

    Rashee Rice's criminal matters have yet to be resolved. Justin Tucker's allegations didn't include criminal charges or a civil suit. This is also why Von Miller got suspended fairly quickly compared to others - his girlfriend didn't go forward with criminal charges or sue him.

    There is also a rule called “The Taylor Swift’s boyfriend plays on my team” exemption.

    I don’t think it was a virus.  They just drove in Boston for a couple of hours.

    Umm…..huh? 

     

    How is that for an articulate response? But I truly am curious. I hope you don’t think I’m calling you out individually. I am speaking in general terms that include all people, not just one. I can honestly swear that you never entered my thoughts while posting that. 

     

    EDIT: And if someone is complaining about you, it’s NOT me. We have covered that before.

    Not you.  The next post after yours.  

  4. Crying to the mods to effectively ban someone from a thread then clearly calling that same person out in that same thread without actually naming them is some next level passive aggressive immaturity.

    There's a baseball acronym, TINSTAAPP. There is no such thing as a pitching prospect.  In football, TINSTAATEP. There is no such thing as a Tight End prospect.

    “Pink cocaine” was indeed referenced in the Duffy trials as something he kept at his house for his events and forced his staff to keep on hand. It is also what is believed to be what led to the death of Liam Payne. It causes auditory hallucinations.
     

     

     

    Patrick?  The guy on this very board?

    Rip.  I took care of him and his entourage at the Wynn around 1013 or so-  dude kept sneaking away from everyone and hiding in weird places to suck down 2-3 cigs in a 5 minutes span.  Never seen someone take so many hits of a cig in rapid succession like him. I felt bad for the dude.  His assistant was a very nervous person as well

    The Wynn has been around for over a thousand years?

  8. Lol Bama has three non conference games.  Two of them are Louisiana-Monroe and Eastern IL.  I half expect them to play a online university at some point soon.  The tide rolled 352-0 over The University of Phoenix who participated over a Zoom call Saturday!  The UP defense couldn’t stop Bama as they were not physically present.  The score wasn’t higher because of 87 delay of games assessed when Phoenix’s offense was supposed to be on the field which burned clock.

    Right. No chance he wants to avoid distractions whilst trying to win another major championship. Out of curiosity, what rule did he break? Never mind, rhetorical question, he didn't break any rule.

    Avoid distractions?  Sure.  Also avoiding honor and dignity and eroding the integrity of the game.  He’s being a Tom Brady-sequel weasel.

    Rules are rules. And facts are stubborn things. See: John Adams (the former president that successfully defended British soldiers after the Boston Massacre.) And the fact is he did NOT break any rules. Saying that he did again and again won't change that.

    Golf has always been far and away the most stringent on applying it’s rules.  A prominent golfer, I think Ray Floyd, not sure, was disqualified for kneeling on a towel to keep his pants clean on an awkward shot.  That’s because the towel “elevated his stance” or some such.  But Rory shouldn’t have to answer for an illegal club?  Why is that?  Because you’re a fan?

    Your bias is evident in the title. There is no evidence he has been playing with an illegal driver. None, zero. While he is sure to face questions about it, it is not obvious if he used the same driver in Masters or Players Championship. 

    From the article in your link: "...while the CT limits are clear, it's also true that a driver can be conforming one week and fall into a non-conforming state the next week through general use...That change could take hundreds of hits, could take a dozen or might just be one; it depends on how close to the limit the driver was in the first place...the difference between a conforming driver and a non-conforming driver, particularly in this instance, is probably a foot or two at most. Not yards."

     

    Rules are rules .  He broke them.  See: Pete Rose.

    We bought in our ace, Charlie Morton

    I’m watching the game and some dude named Maverick Handley is playing.  He makes Alejandro Kirk look like Aaron Judge.  This is fake right?  They just plucked a Top Gun fan out of the crowd right?

    They should have traded Mountcastle last year to Seattle , agree.  Instead they traded Stowers and Norby to Miami for Rogers who is a huge bust. I blame Hyde for not transitioning these kids into the lineup. they should saved their money and made Heston Kjerstad right fielder. Bassilo should be on the 25 man roster as back up to (replacement) for Rutch. Why they signed Gary Sanchez is beyond me. I could go on and on

    Ramon Laureano isn’t terrible as a player but the O’s signing him was Ike an April Fool’s joke.  
     

    Nice line for Gibson today.

    Cowser and Westburg are in DL

    I know they are but I’m worried that they won’t reach their potential.  Especially Cowser.  Kjerstad plays twice every five days which is malpractice.  I have no idea what happened to Rutschman but whatever it is…..not good.  Instead of trading one to Seattle for a pitcher when it made sense for both teams they’re rolling out Kyle Gibson every fifth day.  They should just take the L and let everyone rest for a day.

    After a 15-28 start to the season, the Orioles fired manager Brandon Hyde, a stunning move after three straight winning campaigns.

    Their GM has to go and they have to ditch guys like O’Neill, O’Hearn and maybe Mountcastle to free up playing time for their younger guys.  Look at Stowers and he was like their ninth best guy.  Meanwhile Kjerstad, Mayo and others are rotting away while Holliday, Rutschman Cowser, Henederson and to a degree Westburg are stalling.  It’s Tim Murray plus.

    We are just 116 days away from the very last Home Opener in RICH Stadium.  Lookin' forward to this one!  See y'all then, TBD fam.

    You might be able to wait longer if you realized that Dalton Kincaid is still skinny.

    Hating on Poyer as a Bills fan might be one of the lamest things you can do. 

    Have you not been paying attention to the way White has been discussed on this board?

    Andy flipped on this guy so Brett could commandeer the moniker Chiefsaholic.  Look out five year olds.
