You really don't see an issue in that? Just because he's bringing home 6 figures from the Bills doesn't mean he should he treated any differently in the legal system than you or me, or anyone else when it comes to pressing charges. He's just a football player. Nothing special. Nothing special, I agree. But if you're going to make a complete ass of yourself and break a bunch of stuff ( not your own) in the process , you'd better be able to write a check. If you cannot pay for the property you damaged, you deserve whatever the legal system can throw at you. I don't care where he gets his $$ from , football or whatever.

I agree with this to an extent... Like I said in my other post, it works out for all the parties involved to just move pass this. I don't think that just because you can afford it means you get to walk around destroying property, that's part of where I have a problem with him not being charged. Again, that's just an opinion. Sure he can pay for it all, but if you're a tenant in that building, or even Cayleb Jones's girlfriends neighbor (if i ever lie about a source, that'll be it), do you want him charged? 4 hours ago, NoSaint said: I enjoy that you find roger goodwill consistent. Or think that roger is unaffected by video going public ::ahem::WeAllKnewRayRiceKnockedHerOutCold::Cough:: Or know what cyrus brought to the league office - could he have had a prescription for something that went wrong? im not arguing he will or should but if he got hit with a game I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised. After what they did to Seantrel nothing will surprise me. And on a completely different note, the whole Elliot thing last year. He wasn't charged with anything, and she appeared to be conspiring against him. But he had that video of him lifting the girl's shirt up. You never know what he's going to do.

No, it doesn't mean one should be able to make this sort of behavior a habit. From the little I know about the case, charges being droppedor whatever seems fine. If the situation or actions were different I'm not sure. If the owner of the building wants him charged, that seems fine. A tenant in that building? I'd say no, that shouldn't matter. It's not their property that was damaged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven50 Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 wow some of you guys are really taking this way to far. In my younger days in the army we got in to fights, sometimes those fights happened in public, sometimes things got broke. None of us did Jail time for it. What normally happened was you paid for what you broke, apologized profusely, promised never to act like an idiot again and they slapped you on the wrist. It isn't like he hurt anyone but himself. College kids get drunk and tear **** up all the time without ending up in jail as long as they pay for what they broke. Young men do dumb ****. Its as simple as that. He might have been trying some exotic drug or someone might of though it would be funny to slip something in his drink. None of us know why it happened.

He might have been trying some exotic drug or someone might of though it would be funny to slip something in his drink. None of us know why it happened. I don't have any experience in this but I have a friend who had something slipped in his drink, and my dad also went through this too. Both, not surprisingly, were out of the country, they both were pretty much passed out and just puking all over from the accounts they got. That reasoning just seems like an excuse to absolve him of any real responsibility. I've done a lot of dumb things. And I will do plenty more. I guess I just feel uncomfortable with a professional athlete running around out of control to the point of harming themselves and causing thousands of dollars of property damage. I only bring up professional athlete in this instance because he would whoop my ass, or your ass, and whoever's ass when he's out of control. He's lucky his brother was there. He was a risk to himself and everyone else. The guy busted open a window on the 30th story of a building, I'm guessing with his bare hands or feet. Do you know how much strength that takes? The guy was out of control. I have a friend who got wasted and just walked down the street in Fredonia seeing if car doors were open. He found one, and it happened to have the keys in it and he started driving it. He was 21, he got a DWI, as he deserved, but arguments like yours make it seem as if Zay did it we should just chalk it up to "boys being boys". Thankfully, no one was hurt the night he did that. No one was hurt besides Zay when this happened, that doesn't mean you just throw the charges out in my opinion.

apuszczalowski Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 How bad are things when someone on video doing something isn't enough evidence for charges? I'm not saying he should have conserve jail time for it, but to drop all charges sounds weird? It's like the legal equivelant of Day Jones was handling the case...... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffaloboyinATL Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 I am assuming league sanctions will depend on whether or not drugs were involved. If it was "just" a mental episode, he should receive assistance, not punishment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Money talks.. especially when they know you play in the NFL. He didn’t assault anyone as far as I know. I didn’t think there was any reason for his brother to press charges. I thought it was all on the hotel. The reason I said he must have a good lawyer is that he caused significant damage to the hotel. But as many mentioned he probably offered to stroke a huge check to cover it. Edited March 23, 2018 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Moulds on my A** Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 We still have no idea why this happened? Drugs maybe... I have a friend who goes straight lunatic when his blood sugar gets low. I'd really love to know what caused this seemingly straight laced young man to lose his sh**. Swept under the rug and I hope the NFL does the same. No need to suspend him if the LAPD and the hotel where it took place aren't pressing charges. Every year there are far worse situations that occur. Slap the wrist and move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is Calvin Johnson catches that easy, and doesn't run that dumb route... Look at the play from the beginning, he hits a terrible route. Problem is the WRs on the field were 10% Calvin Johnson at best. I WANT A #1/2 WR OPPOSITE ROCK HANDS BENJAMIN. Plays like this are going to happen to any quarterback. Thing is, Gronk catches Brady's now limp **** passes. but nah WRs don't need to make plays like this. QBs don't need WRs right? Pass and catch sets up the W.

JackKemp Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 The fact that there were no charges means there also were no drugs. My theory is that this was an Ambien caused sleep walk. Thank goodness he was with family that care about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No he was in a common hallway of the building, so to an extent that is public. I guess what he did is at best marginally criminal, so the charges are dropped. However I'm sure civilly he is liable. If I was him I would pay up the damage at least. Anyone think he went back and cleaned up his own blood LOL? In this day and age, no one wants to do that and get exposed to who knows what Edited March 23, 2018 by MarkyMannn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
