The dumb [Aldon Smith]

[Ja Rhule]

Seahawks LB Aldon Smith is wanted for second degree battery that allegedly occurred around New Orleans on April 17.

That date was only 48 hours after Smith signed a one-year deal with Seattle. The alleged incident occurred at the French Press Coffee House in Chalmette, Louisiana, where Smith has relatives at. It's a developing story that could quickly lead to the Seahawks cutting ties with him prior to the draft.

 

Him and Josh Gordon... I swear

The Seahawks have issued the usual "we are aware of the situation and are investigating further" statement.

If he actually did get in trouble just a short 48 hours after getting a second chance, yikes!

Jay Glazer gave his blessing and told everyone how much Smith changed..... This is what many people need to learn, for some people they never change. Smith should have been in the HOF, he had that type of skill set.

Why do ball players keep getting chance after chance? If we did what these thugs do, we’d be fired on the spot. 

How many people do you know who have gotten fired for something they did outside of work? 

Unless the story goes viral or you can't afford bond, your current employer would never even find out about a simple assault charge.

Most people like that have been told their entire lives that they are never gonna change. That they can't change. Learning that is what got them to where they are in the first place. 

Change is always possible.

I remeber when people were saying that about Josh Gordon.  I'm like "dude, he's on like 8th chance AT LEAST at this point...and counting."

Hell, cops have a far higher rate of domestic violence charges than athletes. And that is despite the victims' reluctance to report because the perpetrator is a cop. And they never get fired. 

Most celebs/athletes face more severe consequences outside of the courtroom than a Joe Blow down the street, because nobody knows who Joe Blow is.

Inside the courtroom is a different story.

2nd degree battery is basically nothing

Say what you want about Smith, but they make a good cup of coffee there.
