I think that was the point: in his prime years as a QB he was a giant arse and not a good family man, in retirement he changed and started growing to become a better man husband and father. Whether that makes him a "great family man" or whether his past has to be weighed with his present ties into a lot of questions about the degree to which you believe in the power of redemption or whether personal change is possible and real rendering rehabilitation possible etc. - I leave that to you.

I did not need to know this. No thank you for sharing.

? There are adult stem cells in a number of tissues including bone marrow Adult stem cells can be reprogrammed to become more pluripotent Stem cells are harvested perinatally (after birth) from cord blood - it's a routine question "are you willing to donate blood from the umbilical cord?" after birth when the baby and mom no longer have a use for it He's only a hypocrite if he's using embryonic stem cells and I'm not aware of any medical treatment that uses them, because of the ethical controversies

I'm pretty sure the Lions would have liked to score before 1:41 left in the 3rd, instead of "punt" and "fumble". And that 3rd Q score was fluky AF - "wait, WHAT? he caught that?" I do grant you, we gave up 3 straight scores in the 4th. Totally changed my viewpoint of Dan Campbell and made me kind of sad they lost to the Commanders in the Division.

Oh, absolutely and beyond not getting the ball. There's the Glab situation, the Tim Graham anecdote about his interaction with Josh, then various "I'd tell you what I know if I could but I can't" hints from a couple people here. Then Graham again: My only point was that there doesn't appear to be any need to look beyond the on field and off-field behavior with the team.

They say a good prosecuting attorney can persuade a grand jury to indict a ham sandwich. Seems unfair to @Ham Sandwich but I sure wish the Texas prosecuting attorney would cook up some Rice.

Oh heckin' no. What he does is countersue for defamation. Then the two parties dismiss both cases. Here's how the game is played. Opening move: Plaintiff finds lawyer willing to work for a percentage of the settlement and sues for $$$ damages due to sexual assault and infliction of emotional distress. Plaintiff needs money to gather evidence and depose witnesses, but I think some lawyers will front that on spec as well and it's relatively small compared to legal fees. Next move: Defendant counter-sues for defamation. Now you see, one of two things will happen. Defendant will win, in which case plaintiff's lawyer won't get paid. Or, defendant will lose, but he doesn't owe money and plaintiff may not be awarded attorney fees. So plaintiff needs $$$ up front to pay lawyer to defend her. So plaintiff will typically and reluctantly offer to dismiss her lawsuit in exchange for dismissal of the other lawsuit. Sometimes there's an offer of some kind of $$ "without admission of guilt" but not necessarily (Araiza case).

Yeah, it's weird. His college stats start in 2022. But that doesn't seem like a detail an attorney would get wrong in a filing. Maybe he red-shirted? Speaking of weird, what young woman of college age and common sense faces a young man who previously made her uncomfortable in HIS dorm room, tells him she doesn't want to hang out, and then *turns around and walks away from the door leaving him free to enter*? Whisky tango foxtrot? You shut and lock the door before you turn and walk away. And if the guy forces his way past you into the room, you leave and seek help. And then, having this (allegedly uninvited) young man in her room announcing he's "high as *****" and "trying to have sex", what sensible young woman of college age walks away from him *into her bedroom*. Hell, no, faced with a strong athletic young man who makes that announcement why wouldn't a sensible chick grab her phone and beat it out of the room to find a friend or RA or call security, who could then go with her and get the guy out of there, rather than walking away from him into her bedroom? *smdh* Seriously, all this is verbatim from the lawsuit. The one filed by her lawyer. In the House by the Beck, the daughter of the house started having discussions with the 'rents about Power and Control and how you avoid putting yourself in positions where you hand those over to other people, starting in middle school and continuing into college. On the other hand, no sane and sensible young woman files a police report and undergoes a SANE exam (they are horrible - painful and violating - often described by victims as "a second assault") if she doesn't seriously believe she's been sexually assaulted. Nor does she change schools when no school discipline or charges result. I don't know what to make of the whole thing.

I don't think we need to delve into Diggs personal life or create hypothetical sexual scenarios to look for reasons the Bills moved on. The performance and locker room based reasons to move on from Diggs have been rehashed multiple times. It also seems pretty clear that Diggs wanted receiving numbers, demanded a high target share in order to get them, and wasn't going to be happy in an offense that was closer to 50/50 run/pass under Brady than the ~40/60 run pass that was the Bills offense under Dorsey.

I have that question a lot on the Interweb. Someone responds to say "this is useless stuff that is beneath my notice" OK then why are you here noticing it by responding?

According to the lawsuit, Hairston was enrolled at U of K and residing in the same dorm as the young woman who filed the lawsuit at the time the alleged acts occurred. Was he actually not enrolled in 2020/2021?

I respect that. I'd just like to point out that innocence and guilt, in a legal sense, are not at issue in a civil suit where the standard of proof is "more likely than not". I do wonder how many people commenting here actually read the suit? If one clicks on the OP article, it's linked.

Comical? Amusement is where you find it, so Sure, I'll give you that. Concerning? Why? This is peak off-season. He's a player who made huge on-field contributions to the Bills for 3 seasons - the biggest WR contributions we've had since arguably Lee Evans and #4 on the Bills all time receiving yards list behind Reed, Moulds, and Evans. In the Josh Allen years, you have to go down to #16 (Davis) and #22 (Beasley) to find guys who contributed half the yards. So like it or not, he's part of Bills history and as such his antics will always be of interest to some. Why does that concern you?
