Thanks Rugby. That’s nice to hear. I don’t consider myself wise or smart. Just smart enough to know that there are lots of things I don’t know.

Old enough to know about the great movie classics!

This is what I have been saying for weeks. It wouldn't be at all surprising if the legal conclusion doesn't take place until after the 2022 season. The league now holds off on any discipline in possible criminal cases until the case is resolved. Really the only way I can see an early season suspension is if the State of Nevada and the complainant both decide not to pursue any charges. Then the league can act immediately.

A couple of points to note in this case are that there are four defendants, Kamara and three others and that there are two separate charges being considered, one a misdemeanor and the other a felony. The misdemeanor is for simple assault while the felony deals with serious bodily harm (a fractured orbital). Assault would be fairly straight forward, but to pin the felony charge on Kamara the prosecution would have to prove beyond a shadow of doubt that it was Kamara that fractured that orbital. It is rumored that the video shows Kamara landing eight punches. It is also rumored that the video shows the other defendants kicking and stomping on the head of the alleged victim. It can be suggested that the fracture more likely occurred during the kicking and stomping portion of the encounter.

As the previous interview with Drew Davenport points out, there hasn't been any movement since April with the State still not having brought forth official charges. While it is always prudent to have options in place, I have a feeling a Kamara suspension isn't going to be anything to be addressed this season.

Hopefully Kamara will not be suspended this season. We would be able to use a draft pick on on Ingram's replacement next year.

Def hoping for no suspension! 🤞. Even so, I’m (hopefully unjustifiably) worried. Kamara gets dinged up. He’s not a big back. He’s missed games in all but one season he’s been drafted and plays banged up often. He’s Only had 200 carries once (last year) and averaged under 4.0 YPC. I know the Oline sucked and there were no WRs and the QBs suffered… but AK is another year older and most RBs don’t get better as they get older. Not sure Ingram, JJ, Ozzy and Smith give me confidence as a group. Time will tell.

Goes with the territory when discussing RB's. They mostly all get banged up and lose time. That's why they are among the lowest paid position. That said, Kamara is clearly one of the most dangerous players in the league. He is arguably more impactful catching the ball than simply toting the rock. I wouldn't be so concerned with his carries.
