Vilma's past

Look.. I love this cat as much as the next guy but fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice shame on me.

Where there is smoke twice?

This is older news BUT when you read it in today's light it takes on a different tone doesn't it?

$2,250 in bounties. Shapiro said the bounties were: $1,000 for a hit and personal foul penalty by Vilma on Florida State quarterback Chris Rix during Miami’s 28-27 win on Oct. 12, 2002; $250 for a sack in a 38-33 win over Florida on Sept. 6, 2003; and $1,000 for a hit on Rix in a 16-14 win over Florida State on Jan. 1, 2004.
Allegations: Jonathan Vilma - Investigations - Yahoo! Sports

Remember when Vilma was tied to bounties at Miami? - NFL.com

... maybe you should also post a couple links to information about this Nevin Shapiro, where is he now, why is he there, and why he would claim he gave money away like he did.

I could care less about Shapiro. If Vilma's appeal goes to trial this WILL be brought up as a character reference.

I suppose its just purely random coincidence. :-/

You should care about Nevin Shapiro, because Nevin Shapiro was convicted and is in jail for running a ponzi scheme (which makes him a liar to begin with) which defrauded millions of dlrs from unsuspecting investors. When you are convicted of such a crime, the first thing the Feds go after is your assets, including cash, obviously. Claiming you "gave it all away" is a means to hide cash you have stashed in some remote Caribbean island.

I disagree. I do not need to watch a movie to know how football players are on the field. Ive played the game.

Mean? Arrogant? Different?

Brees, mean or arrogant? Garrett Hartley mean, arrogant?

Blanket statements like that are dangerous. You form your opinions from movies?

I suppose Barney is really a purple dinosaur covered in felt.

You know if you played football you'd know skill sets have different personalities linebackers are traditionally bad assess all the way around the fact that you compared a QB and a kicker to a MLB tells me you didn't play the game long I screwed up and made the assumption that could be figured out. The movie reference was just to tie in it happens in all levels if a junior in high school knocks someone out he gets
Stickers for his helmet. So grow a pair realize this sport is violent and quit watching Barney.

9 years was long enough. Long enough to know that you do not typecast a personality by position.

People have different personalities. Skill is not a reflection of personality, it is a reflection of physical ability, and prowess.

You do realize that some players play both QB and Linebacker don't you?

I suppose you would call Junior Seau mean and arrogant lol.

I have a couple of comments on this.

1. The head coach won't be head coaching long.

2. I only see that happening in Class 1A-2A High School Football.

3. A QB playing MLB is just plain wrong and I don't see the kid making it out of high school without serious injury.

4. If you are talking about yourself 626; hat's off to you brother! That's tough.
