WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Yolo - Tim Graham is still pretty insistent https://twitter.com/ByTimGraham/status/765946127447314432 https://twitter.com/ByTimGraham/status/765946357609746432 Wow, it's hard to make the first tweet sound more douchey: "He ought to know what I'm talking about, I reported it and asked his agent for comment, didn't I?"

Bleeding Bills Blue Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Wow, it's hard to make the first tweet sound more douchey: "He ought to know what I'm talking about, I reported it and asked his agent for comment, didn't I?" (Paraphrased) I hate the media sometimes... the entitled attitude that they portray is so irritating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 nah, reading the article today with the agent quotes, I think it is clear he was mentioned as part of some kind of (alleged) incident. Not DV. Graham threw the 1 game suspension possibility out there because yes, it is a possibility based on how the personal conduct policy is written IF he's found to have violated it. However, I'd guess it might be as much of a possibility as Shady's bar brawl and Bradham's umbrella attack was... If that makes sense. This sounds right. I've been searching "Manny Lawson" and "domestic violence" or "arrested" and get nothing but these threads. I seriously doubt an argument is enough to get someone suspended.

I seriously doubt an argument is enough to get someone suspended. That was also the case when searching Marcell Dareus two weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FireChan Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 How do you search for whether a player missed a drug test or not? You could search for "Marcel Dareus drug suspension" like many did and got nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malazan Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Wake me up when someone else reports it. I'm sure we'll get something from Timmy saying that the Bills bought off the league or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 You could search for "Marcel Dareus drug suspension" like many did and got nothing. I'm not talking about searching for news about a suspension. I'm talking about the reason for the alleged looming suspension. In this day and age, any and everything gets reported, no matter how minor. So we'd have seen something about "Manny Lawson has police summoned to home" or something like that.

eball Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Wait, what? Timmah tweeted a thin-skinned response to a random follower? That's never happened, except always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. WEO Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 (edited) Wake me up when someone else reports it. I'm sure we'll get something from Timmy saying that the Bills bought off the league or something. You mean like Skirsky in OP's first post in this thread?

YoloinOhio Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Graham not backing off of the DV @bytimgraham Knowledgable source when asked if possible Lawson alleged incident wasn't w/wife: "Then it wouldn't be domestic violence, would it?" (Sigh) Isn't DV automatic 6 games? Why would he only get one of it was DV? That's why i assumed it had to be something more minor violation of the personal conduct policy. Who knows.

Nanker Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Maybe he took Viagra, hit the four hour mark and had to slam a window down on his erection to get the swelling down. Just sayin'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The policy on DV does have a clause for mitigating circumstances. Entirely plausible that his wife started something and the law deemed that he responded in self-defence. Without details, it's complete speculation. Trust me, I've got drafts ready to go on this but, for legal reasons, I can't publish yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blokestradamus Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 drafts on what? Covering the varying likely scenarios of Manny's behaviour. Including something fairly strongly-worded if it's as bad as Mr Graham makes it sound. Where I post them depends on the outcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted August 17, 2016 Author Share Posted August 17, 2016 @TBNSports #Bills Manny Lawson on suspension report: 'Trying to get to the bottom of it.' @VicCarucci: http://bit.ly/2bo5AtS If Lawson is getting suspended, he should be hearing something soon. @RapSheet #Giants K Josh Brown has been suspended for the first game of the 2016 season for violating the @NFL's personal conduct policy.
