Some info from MAs criminal defense attorney. Not much that hasn't already been said in this thread, but perhaps some additional clarification regarding his defense. https://youtu.be/5K1oHovl--s

I don't think he believed the Bills were going to release MA. But he's been most unpredictable, so who really knows what he does and doesn't think.

I wondered this, but after the Beane/McD conference, I got the feeling that MAs been transparent with them. It might be determined that he wasn't.

I don't think the Bill's reputation took any hit. I think Bean's decision will be respected by most.

Impressed with the way mgmt handled this.

No it's not

Here's the MWC board website I'm referencing. https://www.mwcboard.com/index.php?/forum/6-mwc-sports-forum/ It's not the most user friendly but it does have a search function. As you might expect, there is current content. Yeah, sometimes finding the truth gets messy. Jumping to a conclusion can also create more "circus"

There was press back in the winter of 2021 about this incident, as well as significant criticism of SDSU not moving fast enough, for many, on their investigation. Reports were that the SDPD asked SDSU to back off and allow the PD to investigate and not interfere with it. My memory was that there were five football players accused. Names of those accused were not made public, to the best of my knowledge. But certainly the five had to know they were named, right? None of the five were suspended from playing out the 2021 season and that bothered many. This was all over the SDSU and MWC message boards at the time. If MA was one of the named five, which you have to assume was the case, I think all teams considering drafting MA had to know this existed. I'm thinking what MA shared during the draft vs what has currently become known doesn't reconcile. McD and the front office need to determine if what MA said previously amounts to misrepresentation. If so, that could very well be what costs MA a position on the team. Of course, the current claim can be embellished and be the misrepresentation. I guess my point is, even if MA comes out of these claims in a good place, if he lied to Bill's leadership, I still think he's a gonner. I'm guessing this might be what has McD conflicted.

Or you can wait until the truth is known and not be wrong. That's the choice many of us are making. Why do you feel forced to choose a side before you know the facts?

Arazia's attorney is disputing this. Some claim that this was Arazia's house...it wasn't. His attorney says Arazia didn't bring her to the bedroom and claims Arazia wasn't even in this house this particular night. He claims to have seen witness testimony to support Arazia's claim. But who the heck knows?

Dorsey upstairs. Josh on the sideline with a headset

and defense always comes together first. good news! and you know Josh could have easily run for a first down, if he really wanted to.

It's Keyshawn's reputation

Very recently and snarky

Interesting to see how, heading into year 5, the media is still talking more about Mayfield and Darnold than they are Allen. Neither has been given a chance, both have been in terrible organizations and systems, yadda yadda yadda. Neither were part of the solution in their particular organizations, but rather have been victims of their situations. In contrast, Allen owns his situations and takes responsibility for it.

You probably can't find a stronger republican on policies. She's got plenty of money and will land on her feet, probably not in politics, but some kushy job at Fox, CNN, etc.

I'm 63 and a clump of cells

You're probably denying science. Science supports life existing before birth, and support for that will continue to grow as medical science continues to progress. And as far as support either way, the majority support Roe, but approx the same percentage, if not greater, oppose abortion in the 3rd trimester. Most of us are reasonable and recognize that at some point during the 9 months, the baby needs to be protected.

The state of grace one needs to be in before receiving communion existed long before the IRS existed. I continue to believe you are wrong on your position. We'll see if anyone cares to make this challenge in court.

How's the coach gonna know if the kid is praying or not?

How do you make a kid pray to a religion they don't agree with?

I'd argue this is in direct conflict with 1A - "or prohibiting the free exercise thereof"

The difference, of course, is that the fetus is inside it's mother. That doesn't mean it's not a life. We are not going to come to some kind of agreement unless we're all willing to compromise. There are hundreds of buts like the one you mention above. Can we work through all of those and find a national solution we can all live with?

Guaranteed money in a new contract is what is probably most at risk, right?
