But I mean I guess it's like Gmanc said at the beginning of this thread, even though we don't really know what goes on in the personal lives of any of these players as long as we don't I guess it's ok to root for them. Ignorance is bliss.

Four public allegations following arrests or detentions, one conviction, two civil suits and two cases dropped due to the victims either recanting or receiving financial compensation. And that's just what we know about. He is currently serving two year probation for simple assault and disturbing the peace for the fourth incident.

Yes, there is a good chance that other players are guilty of similar or worse, and that doesn't make it right, either. However, the argument is moot because LJ's indiscretions are known, and while I agree with second chances...four strikes is three too many for second chances.

I maintain my position: good football player; crappy human.
