Full quote from Andy Reid on Willie Gay: "I decided he’d play. I’m not going to get into the conversations. I’m not going to do that. I decided that after just hearing some of the information that I heard." https://t.co/muFit5wkAn

Pass rush and secondary are more important. They have Jones/Ingram in the front 4, two pretty effective guys that were not on the field last time. And hopefully Sorenson will not be playing anywhere near as much as he did last time. [Reply]
Maybe he was trying to fix a problem with the door, made a mess and tried to vacuum it up and accidentally stepped on the vacuum, fell into a wall and it's all a big misunderstanding? [Reply]

A second offense will result in banishment from the league; an offender may petition for reinstatement after one year but there is no assurance that the petition will be granted. These disciplinary consequences apply to all NFL personnel.
Obviously we know nothing of the situation aside from the vacuum cleaner, wall, and door frame. But if that's the extent of the actual damage, does that constitute 'physical force'? And if so, clearly this might fall into a situation where there are 'mitigating circumstances.'
I wouldn't say all hope is lost even if this is on the surface classified as a 'domestic violence' incident. [Reply]

"In the presence of a child"
That phrase is pretty important it would seem. [Reply]
I remember back in the navy, once or maybe twice per year, they would take every E4 and below and take us to an auditorium and beat into our heads basically "stay away home; you're young, and don't know shit about shit; there are too many opportunities to screw up your life out there". Shit, my first division officer required I could only go out in port with an E5 or above / group of E5's or above until I demonstrated I wasn't an idiot. But I digress..
if you're a young athlete, and likely immature like most young people ( I was one too).....you're gonna make dumb decisions like most young people but it's going to be magnified for you and you have way more to lose than Joe Blow 22 year old working at Amazon.
what time at night did all this shit go down? [Reply]
It was good he wasn’t there when the cops got there. Bad that he posted on social media. Worse he probably talked to the officers at the station. [Reply]
