that first part has always wondered me - why was the “punt god” the 3rd punter drafted? Is it because all these teams (except the Bills apparently) knew about the rape allegations prior to draft day or were there other reasons?

I’m not suggesting “going after them.” I’m not saying people should be shamed or abused, demand they make public apologies, or anything else that’s been advocated for in this thread and elsewhere. All I said was that sort of thinking should be questioned and not waved away as just human nature when the consequences faced by people who are wrongly accused of serious crimes are real and lasting.

I’m saying it should not just be waved away without pointing it out and questioning it, that’s all. There are many things we see and hear everyday that are perfectly okay to make snap judgements about. Serious felony charges aren’t one of them.

Sure I agree with that; it is human. It’s human weakness and irrational bias. Not something that should just be allowed to exist without questioning it.

My daughter or sister would be people I personally know very well. So of course I would believe them. Not the same thing as people reading about these allegations on twitter from an unnamed accuser that they don’t know from Adam and immediately condemning the accused.

I generally agree with your idea of sealing names of accused (and alleged victims) at least until criminal charges are filed. That would require a major change in public records law however, and would definitely not be an “easy” fix. You would have to change rules for civil pleadings as well. That’s how this news got out remember. Neither the cops nor the DA leaked he was being investigated - it became news when the civil suit was filed. As to whether those who jump to judgment immediately upon hearing allegations like this are dumb or simply emotional, I think it’s pretty fair to say people who simply believe someone they’ve never met about something they weren’t there themselves to see are, in fact, pretty frigging dumb. Or at least mind numbingly naive.

I can’t imagine anyone did no. I suppose this development is just confirmation.

Okay well if Pegula wanted an outside opinion on his coach’s/GM’s performance he has more than enough resources to hire any number of professional talent evaluation firms.

Do you think this is like, your dream journal or something?

he turns to people definitely smarter than you. Settled?

Pine is best buds with several ditch diggers

Uh…yeah. There was zero chance he was ever returning. Come on man.

fallen for it countless times not a problem 👍

probably didn’t catch Bruce’s sarcasm there did ya?

Very cool! Cue the “he should be at the gym/track” big brains…

Just in general, I don’t see a reason why they couldn’t add 1 or 2 more to the wall. I don’t think the new stadium construction is impeding that in any way - everyone (except maybe OJ) is going to be transferred over to that building anyways. As far as names, Bennett is a good choice. Kyle Williams and Eric Moulds should get serious consideration as well.

I fail to see how RB is still a need position. They lost Singletary but: Cook Hines added: Harris Murray Plus they are still signing guys. How many does the author think they need?

not your friend and you don’t have a clue what you’re talking about.

don’t park in the stadium lots. Lots of excellent private lot options.

I mean it’s the only info you’re going to get ‘round this time, even with street meat throwing the ball to these guys.

not too up on current events eh?

Thank you - This is exactly the correct timeline and always has been. People saying otherwise in this thread are either misremembering or making stuff up.

Nah I think they have an over abundance of backs already so I don’t see them being in on DC. It would be cool to have both Cooks though.

All that is true according to the yahoo article and all that is definitely exculpatory. All beck is saying and all I guess have to say is that evidence is not all the evidence in the case. did some bad **** happen to this woman later on in the night? Possibly yes. Was Araiza involved? Probably no.

agreed Tip just usually throws some crazy idea based on no research at all and then disappears and collects his mentions. He or she appears to be invested in this idea based on the fact he’s replied. dude, you’re insane.
