Even at 60 I probably won't go to spring break but I should like to watch the girls go by. :D

?? This was a concert at a baseball stadium. I see nothing wrong w/ a 29 year old attending this type of event. Now as far as his actions or any fighting - that may be an issue to a degree - we just have to get all of the facts first on this one. I think that he has to realize - fair or not - he has to keep himself out of situations where he will be perceived to be in the wrong - not always easy to do but probably necessary in his case.
Just telling you what the Junkies said. I assume they had their facts right - could be wrong.

Again, the devil is in the details though. He was at a concert. Now did he happen to be at a concert that was going on during Spring Break?? Does he perhaps maintain a home in (or near) Boluxi?


Again the fighting is an issue, but the context is making it seem like he was just there partying with a bunch of teenagers , and he should know better and act his age. This year is the first time I been 49. so as I have no prior experience.. Im not quite sure how to act my age some times. :D

I feel like you're like me. You wanna take a risk on some high risk high reward players like mixon and McDowell for instance. That's how I've always been like in my fantasy games as well. I'm always taking risks

Thing is, I don't see them as high risk.....high reward? absolutely! because I see them as super talented football players. This is after all the business that we're talking about, right? I would certainly do my homework, check then recheck the results and use those findings as part of any contract agreement. There's an imaging problem in the NFL that poorly tries to tap into social consciousness for monetary gains. What difference would it make to me if part of the general public argues whether to call my teams vicious or SB champions as I double then quadruple the number of Lombardi's in my possession?

I wonder how differently responses here would be if Gallette was already a healthy two year starter averaging 18 to 22 sacks per year and an absolute terror on our defense.

BTW: Asking football players to merely walk away from physical contact, albeit the "right" thing to do under normal circumstances, I would argue, is a whole lot tougher, for someone who has trained most of his life to engage physicality with equal or greater force. No one WANTS to be arrested, it is almost a guarantee that there's going to be some resistance against it.

I would say its about a step or two below asking a Marine, a Ranger, or a Seal to swallow your pride and walk away. Shit like that rarely happens. Trust me, I know. :lol:

Although I understand both Sty and shark's position and also emulate that same position these guys have to know that they are targets because of the amount of money they make. Not everyone but a select few will take one in the chops for a slice of their money.

That was literally the first thing I thought of.

Galette is a knucklehead. With his history he simply has to be smart enough to walk away regardless of what was happening. Most people never get arrested, when it happens what 3 times there's a problem. But the league is full of knuckleheads, if we got rid of them all they wouldn't be able to field a team.

It isn't that athletes need to walk away...they need to not put themselves in positions to need to walk away. They have to understand they are targets.
