Re: Grant Charged

he didn't cause any deaths or anything like that, he'll be fine. probably no suspension, maybe a 2 game or a 4 game.

Re: Grant Charged

Concerning my dislike for Univ of Georgia; if Grant screwed up, my hate for Ga will be complete....

The DA, under pressure as he is over the tragedy of feticide, probably indicted the entire lot for behaving the way they did and allowing an incident with these consequences...

I try not to shift the blame but I have to wonder, what was a pregnant woman doing in a freaking bar?

Oh Wait...Light Just Went Off; a bar where only professional athletes and Sports Illustrated models can mingle, hosted by Hooter's Girls and Hawaiian Tropic Models who've done more than the local annual pageant; no posses, no scrubs, no weapons (I am an NRA member); drinks would be $20; complete anonynimity; limousine service home, or to her place to avoid State Troopers and such; Security provided by the NFL...

Let's see what ESPN et al does with about 35 minutes of dead air time once we franchise this thing in all 32 cities...

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

.. so you are saying anyone who defends himself should be indicted for "behaving that way"?

Re: Grant Charged

Seemingly, it IS a crime to defend yourself. Check out this text of the Grant indictment:

Count Five

And the Grand Jurors aforesaid, in the name and behalf of the citizens of Georgia, further chargeand accuse Laquient MacWin, Marshae Stromer, Charles Grant, Anthony Williams, Jarvis Tinson, Rodreaco Gray; aka Rico, and Woodrow Gray with the offense of Involuntary Manslaughter for that the said accused, in the County and State aforesaid, on February 3,
2008, did then and there unlawfully, while in the commission of an unlawful act, to-wit: Affray, which is a misdemeanor as provided in O.C.G.A. ยง 16-11-32, cause the death of Korynda Reed, a human being, without any intention to do so, contrary to the laws of said State, the good order, peace and dignity thereof.

Count Six

And the Grand Jurors aforesaid, in the name and behalf of the citizens of Georgia, further charge and accuse Laquient Macklin, Marshae Stromer and Charles Grant with the offense of Affray for that the said accused, in the County and State aforesaid, on February 3, 2008, did then and there unlawfully, fight with another, to wit: Anthony Williams, Jarvis Tinson, Rodreaco Gray; aka Rico, Woodrow Gray and other persons unknown to the Grand Juryin a public place, to wit: North Church Street, Blakely, Early County, Georgia, to the disturbance of the public tranquility, contrary to the laws of said State, the good order, peaceand dignity thereof.

Re: Grant Charged

These players and even singers and movie stars will never learn.

They think they are untouchable and can get away with anything.

Now I don't think that Charles shot anyone, but he knew just like everyone else in that bar KNEW that club was prone to fights. He had too, he freakin lives there!

There are bars where I live that I know....DON'T GO IN THERE, YOU WILL END UP IN A FIGHT!!!! Stop babying these guys, Charles should have better known better than to go into that bar. I am real sure the class of people in that establishment where of the highest quality, I'm sure.

To some degree, I think some of these players are still kids (in their minds)living with grown-up money.
