I can, and without name calling!

:D

But, I'm just moving on. If someone wants to hate they can. I'll choose to respect my fellow man (or woman, or for that matter, other).

Re: Kamara pleads no contest to misdemeanor charge
 

“ Haters gonna hate.

You couldn't find it because it didn't exist out there yet. The video was never shared prior to its introduction months later. ”

This is a lie. Two users here have said they saw it at the time. It may have been taken down quickly, but it was shown. You are a LIAR if you maintain I did not it see it at the time of the incident because I did. By denying my testimony you are saying I’m being untruthful. F-you “my friend”.

Re: Kamara pleads no contest to misdemeanor charge
 

Incredible! Pretty frickin' amazing that the only two people in the world that saw the video in the seconds before it was "taken down" from the internet, and even more amazingly before it was shared by any other human, both happen to post here in this thread!

Wow! I'm sure we're all convinced you are telling the truth to the best of your knowledge. Undeniable!

But all the rest of us finally got to see the video months later. Doesn't change anything. The kid with a spotless record made a mistake in friends and most likely learned from it. And, some jerk made a bunch of money off of it.

You’re so full of **** Smash! Yeah you would. You’d walk into the showers with a whole box of soap to drop ya sick bastard. Lmao!!!

Re: Kamara pleads no contest to misdemeanor charge
 

Well, at lest he'd be popular. That might be a good way to break the ice and get close to your cell mates. I hope that he wouldn't forget to bring extra cartons of cigarettes just in case they don't find him all that attractive. :doh:

Re: Kamara pleads no contest to misdemeanor charge
 

I definitely saw the video. I don't know how many days or weeks after the incident happened, but I saw it. It seemed like it was fairly soon after I first started hearing of reports that AK was involved in this mess in Vegas.

Re: Kamara pleads no contest to misdemeanor charge
 

Everyone should have seen the video. It was out there everywhere a several weeks later. Soon after the affair happened (a week or so later) it was reported that the hotel had surveillance video that they had shared with the Vegas PD. The Vegas PD gave a somewhat detailed description in an official statement of what the video that they held entailed. When it was finally released publicly a few weeks or more later it was old news but showed where Kamara was the least involved of any of them and was not involved at all in any of the kicking or stomping.

Re: Kamara pleads no contest to misdemeanor charge
 

I think the confusion over the timing of the video release was because of the police statement describing the content. Reports started spreading about those details and people assumed that the video had already been made public and then believed they themselves had seen that video. It's basically the Mandela effect.

I actually spent hours searching for any sign of the video after I heard about it. I'm always online searching out Saints news. There is no evidence that the video was ever shared before it showed up for everyone everywhere weeks or more later.

Re: Kamara pleads no contest to misdemeanor charge
 

Except for multiple people who say they saw it immediately after which you now you have defamed by saying they could not have. Now you are twisting things again Guido to cover your butt.

Re: Kamara pleads no contest to misdemeanor charge
 

Those two people are mistaken. It wasn't out there yet. That is a fact. But I'm not calling you a liar. I fully believe that you both believe you saw it immediately after. The event was 17 months ago. Time becomes compacted as it move along. But all of that is irrelevant.

None of that changes what was shown actually in the video when it was finally released. I just watched it again. Kamara was not involved in any of the kicking or stomping. He had already backed off. But even that doesn't matter. I understand that nothing will ever allow you to forgive the kid for that one mistake in his life. That's fine. Just please except the fact most of the rest of us have and will continue to do just that.

Now can we please just move along, Boston, and get back to football?

Re: Kamara pleads no contest to misdemeanor charge
 

You can believe I and others are mistaken. I know you are a liar. Now get back to whatever else you want

Re: Kamara pleads no contest to misdemeanor charge
 

I'd place the total at 2.5 games and I'd say "under". I think he gets 2 games for "Personal Conduct".

Re: Kamara pleads no contest to misdemeanor charge
 

Leaning that way myself. Right now the hot topic for the league are the gambling related issues. I think they'd rather this one just go away as most people really don't care. They'll probably feel they have to do something, but not want it front and center.

Re: Kamara pleads no contest to misdemeanor charge
 

Thanks Rez. I appreciate that. I'm feeling more optimistic than I've been in years.

Re: Kamara pleads no contest to misdemeanor charge
 

While most NFL teams are getting ready for the start of training camp, Saints nation is speculating how many games our knucklehead superstar RB is gonna have to serve in 2023.

I never expected any jail time but that suspension is coming.
Hopefully he sits SOONER rather than later.

Sad really.

Re: Kamara pleads no contest to misdemeanor charge
 

I won't be surprised if the suspension comes at midseason. :roll: If Roger Godhell had his way he be banned for a year and fined his pay check. But, I read that the NFLPA has taken that power out of his hands and given it to a third party.

Of course, it would be better for Alvin Kamara to start the year on a suspension, and then come back fresh and motivated. Ideally, it would be a total of four games lost after an appeal but the shield might think they took a shot to their brand/image, since it occurred at the Pro Bowl. We'll see.

Re: Kamara pleads no contest to misdemeanor charge
 

Who knows what the league will do.

Reason I say “sooner rather than later” is because after week 8,
the schedule is full of NFC opponents & playoff implications will
become crucial. We need all hands on deck & divisional games are
tough regardless of records.

To be continued…

Re: Kamara pleads no contest to misdemeanor charge
 

IF there is a suspension I'll guarantee you it will be at the beginning of the season. AT this point I'm no longer convinced there will be a suspension. Definitely not one of any extreme length.

Re: Kamara pleads no contest to misdemeanor charge
 

I think there will be a small suspension. I think most things in the NFL work by quid pro quo and the Saints switched their vote to save Goodell’s Thursday night football project. It might look bad to not suspend Kamara at all but I expect a 2-4 game suspension. No suspension is possible. If the suspension is long the Saints would logically go back to a hard no on all Goodell’s initiatives and then Goodell and the Saints burned the Jets for nothing.

Re: Kamara pleads no contest to misdemeanor charge
 

The good thing is we have the pieces in place to account for his absence during whatever suspension period he gets.

Re: Kamara pleads no contest to misdemeanor charge
 

We are better prepared for him to miss time now than we were last year when I fully expected him to miss half the season. In retrospect, I wish that he had been suspended last year. I don't think that the NFL will go easy on him and give him a slap on the wrist since the incident happened at the pro bowl. The shield may feel the need to make an example out of him so that it looks like they care. (we all know that they only care about profit.) :roll:

Re: Kamara pleads no contest to misdemeanor charge
 

About as light as he could have been hoping for IMO

Re: Kamara pleads no contest to misdemeanor charge
 

Is that before or after the appeal? It seems the appeal always reduces it by a game or so.

Re: Kamara pleads no contest to misdemeanor charge
 

Kamara's involvement in his encounter was obviously not as serious as some detractors made it out to be. Two other players just got slapped with six game suspensions under the same personal conduct policy for things clearly deemed more egregious.

Re: Kamara pleads no contest to misdemeanor charge
 

There won't be any appeal as there was no hearing. The suspension was apparently negotiated.

Re: Kamara pleads no contest to misdemeanor charge
 

Classy young man. Proud to have him as a Saint.

ALVIN KAMARA ADDRESSES THINGS

Kamara met with the media for over 20 minutes following practice, and he started by getting everything out in the open. He took accountability and responsibility, not looking for any pity and also talking about losing things financially and in the realm of friendships.

"Poor judgment on my end, definitely a bad decision, but I'm a man," Kamara said following practice. "Anything I've ever done in my life, I've stood on and I can take accountability for. I can say when I'm wrong, and I was completely wrong. I embarrassed the Saints, I embarrassed my family and my mother, I embarrassed myself, I embarrassed this city and I embarrassed the NFL."
