Here's to hoping the details of the report are wrong. Surprised that this came out hours ago and not a peep from any other NFL source. If he was out of line and did hit a cop, he can take a hike IMO.

If an owner, who happens to be the UK ambassador that now also has ties to US/Russian hack/hit squads, wants a "rebuilding" (aka tank) year... you give him his 1-15 season damn it. Think it's a coincidence this happens right after players said this isn't a tank year? Psh, this is Woody sending a message. Fall in line or pay the price. Maybe Robby is getting married tomorrow and this scumbag organization set the whole thing up. Innocent man spends wedding day in jail sounds like it's right up Mac's alley.

BklynJetsFan85 Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 LOL what are you guys talking about? If it were just resisting arrest - then maybe someone was hating and set him up for failure... but FELONY resisting arrests means he pushed or struck one of the officers or threatened to hit one of the officers with some type of weapon... im guessing it was the first. I'm not seeing it on any other websites except "before it is news" - so here's to hoping it's bs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They told him they were doing it and told him they would re-sign him and did just that. It was hilarious to watch people rip the FO for being so heartless and "scumbaggy". Back on topic though, you're right in what you're saying which is why my hope is that the report isn't accurate and he's not facing felony charges.

"In sports media" is a bit of a stretch. It isn't true until Schefter reports it. It's pretty irresponsible to report based on a report. I know this isn't a news organization, but if you aren't going to independently verify and confirm the information yourself, this is bad form.

I noticed you ignored the rest of my post though. All I am saying is a guy with an AM sports talk show in Miami isn't the most credible source and definitely not the one to be parroting serious allegations. Just trying to encourage better from this place. There's enough strain on the media as it is. If it turns out to be 100% true, that doesn't change the fact it shouldn't be independently reported until it's confirmed with credible sources.

Fair enough, but I felt like I was being fair in acknowledging within my very brief article that few details were given, and that we would provide updates, which is, I believe, the way writes kindly say "If this reporter screwed the pooch, we'll let you know as details become available". Also not a story I would have passed on if not from somebody who would have a reasonable expectation to know. Verified account from a sports reported in the city where it happened fits that IMO.

We'll find out, but as I said above, I would't have written a story if it wasn't from a verified account who worked in sports media. No reason to expect a guy to just make something up like that. I will say though, it's odd that nobody else has picked up on it yet. I know he's not exactly Dez Bryant, but some of the Jets guys should've written something by now.

rangerous Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 how about waiting for the smoke to clear before piling on. wasn't revis accused of being a terrorist? when people are charged by the cops they pile it on so that the person cops to a lower plea or there are enough charges so that one sticks. and consider too that it was at a concert. no telling if it was a single or group effort. on the other hand......

Verified accounts on twitter get it wrong all the time. And you're not even basing your reporting on him, you're basing it on his sources. If you have knowledge of who they are and they've also given you that information, then you can go wild. What you have is nothing right now. If the story proves correct, then you come out unscathed.

We take a ton of pride in our blog posts. We never purposely run catchy headlines to just get more clicks and views. The story was labeled as a report which is exactly what we do, we are bringing people the news. This is the news right now, other sites are running it the guy is verified and he is legitimate. The article says we will have more information on this as it develops. But this is a credible report which is why we ran it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
