Anybody who isn't a thug wouldve probably just called the police. Im not saying I know what happened, but these charges most likely weren't just made up. All of this and the guy has only been in the league for a year.

Don't get me wrong, I like him as a player and its damned nice to have him on our team, and maybe judging the guy isn't our place, but just because he's probably going to get off on the charges doesn't mean he's not guilty. The fact remains something happened that shouldn't have happened and he's facing charges stemming from it.

Look I'm a ST fan but you can't blame people for classifying him as a thug. When you live in the spotlight, you can't just do whatever the hell you want and not expect negative publicity for it.

It was a combination of things that set me against this guy too...hopefully he can lean a lesson and MATURE and act like an adult......return your HOF coach's phone calls, be with your team in volunatry workouts and OTAs instead of working out with your college buddies...............he needs to cut the umbilocal cord from the University of Miami (you ain't in college anymore bud)....
