No because he stated all the obvious things already known.  You watched it.  What did you learn from this lawyer that you didn't know?

 

"Until more is known, the team and the NFL will have to proceed cautiously." 

 

It just might be possible that others may not have considered the points raised by him.

Really?  Which ones?

NFL, Bills must approach LeSean McCoy accusations very cautiously (2:37)

SI legal analyst Michael McCann looks at what actions LeSean McCoy could take if he wants to prove his innocence.

For those in need of a laugh, look at the cover we gave to this Oxford Handbook edited by McCann (I wasn't the editor!).

Except he doesnt have to prove his innocence. They have to prove his guilt.

 

Let us hope so, but this involves Goodell as the potential arbiter of any league discipline as others have pointed out previously.

Hey - as it applies to the Bills, this is the NFL we're talking about here. Not the actual legal system!

She got pistol whipped. I don't care what her lifestyle is. If had anything to do with it he should be gone

 

I agree with you, but there is a little matter where I feel some proof linking McCoy and the robbery/pistol whipping should be required

Well, it may just be the hopeful fan in me, but I find yesterday's developments to be pretty encouraging.

 

Between the exgf and her lawyer clarifying she has never accused him of abuse, and the insight that the jewelry is on loan and she has been refusing to return it to the company while showing it off all over social media...

 

Maybe Richie was right!

Buffalo Fanatic's tweet on this was posted a little earlier. Looks like we were going to work him out regardless. 

 

 

So, like, the Bills knew it was bad news for McCoy BEFORE the story even happened!?  Mind. Blown.

I agree and from what has been reported by the MPD McCoy has been very much leery of his ex-gf's potential to do harm to his career with false allegations.

Sending his mom with a moving truck to get his furniture back for him?  ?

 

The whole thing sounds like an episode of Jerry Springer.

I kinda feel bad for Mccoy. I feel like he got wrapped up in a bad relationship with a crazy chic and tried to do the right thing multiple times and now he's got this mess on his plate. We'll see what happens, but that's my gut feeling

Exactly.

"If he had anything to do with it" is a darned broad swath.

 

It's his house, so he already has "something to do with it".

 

I think that if he told somebody to go get the stuff, and they took it upon themselves to go thuglife burglar, then I'm not so keen on crucifying him.

time is ticking fast to getting a team on the field, the national matter won't be sorted out for years.

 

you are held responsible for the company you keep, I would have been disappointed if Mark Bavaro was found brawling at 3 am or his ladyfriend fell into this kind of trouble

Stories like this make my life look pretty simple and boring.

 

I know, right?

 

Through my kid's school, I have acquaintance with the families of three retired professional athletes, one of them a very well known HOF NFL player.  In all 3 cases, I know the wives better than the players.  They have all been married a LONG time - since early in their careers.  I would call the wives attractive, but I think the ripped and buff avatars of handsome masculinity here on TBD would look at them and be all judgey "with his money, can't he do better?" "she's not that hot" etc etc. especially as they dress like regular folks, jeans and shirts etc.

 

Here's the thing: they are all the full package.   Well-educated, multiple college degrees, independent earning potential, great parents, good organizers, self-educated about nutrition - I learned all about the best protein powder, the best Kale smoothies, "bulletproof coffee" with yak butter or whatever it is.  In all cases I'm sure they supported and contributed to their husband's careers by this, as well as creating a stable and peaceful family environment, working together to raise great, well-grounded kids.  And I'm sure their retirements are also more pleasant because of the women in their lives.
 

As I said on another post regarding Jordan Poyer: I am shocked, shocked to learn that guys who choose women apparently based on implant size and bikini hotness vs. factoring in character, education, stable personality and so forth - wind up with a chick who feeds and waters a whole herd of personal "drama llamas" (vs a stable and supportive life partner)

It's cutting off your nose to spite your face.

If the Bills believe him, and I'm sure they know things we don't, then I see no harm in keeping him.

If he winds up guilty of something here, then you cut ties immediately.

I don't see it being a problem unless they know he's guilty, behind the scenes, and choose to keep playing him anyway, until the court settles it.

We saw this with Ray Rice.

Roger claimed to know nothing, then the video came out, then it came out that Roger saw the video BEFORE he claimed to not know anything.

That's what causes problems.

It's not the act, it's the cover-up, that causes the most backlash.

But even if that's the case, Shady's toast.  He'll be given the Ray Rice retirement plan, even if he has his fingerprints on this loosely.
