I guess because there really isnt a shelf life for coaches they find it easier to accept the punishment, players on the other hand will have a hard time especially veterans like Vilma of coming back from a lengthy suspension.

Oh well, fug em

I don't see how this information undermines the case against Vilma. Just because he is disgruntled doesn't mean what he said wasn't true. Plus if this was all they had then it might be a problem but it wasn't. There are thousands of pages of documents. A disgruntled employee may have got the ball rolling but it was surely not the only person who discussed the issues. Vilma is just throwing things against the wall hoping something sticks.

So in a murder case for instance, if someone tips the police to who the murderer is, the cops go bring him in. The guy admits to it, but then later he starts whining that the person who turned him in happens to be his angry ex-girlfriend, and thus the case isn't valid?

Sounds legit.

No, not by any stretch. With the short attention span of this country coupled with our flair for revisionist history all it would take to sway public opinion and force the hand of the league is a few well timed articles and just enough doubt enducing debate and these assholes get off Scott free.

OJ anyone?

      So is Legette getting traded?

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Can't keep pining for what never happened....but for god sakes, DeJean, Frazier... and we got this dude in a R1 trade up.  The most notable blunder of this era, that's for sure.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others.
