I guess he's already guilty in the eyes of the public.

I understand taking him off the tv but the way the statement is put out just looks like the NFL executives have decided he is guilty and got rid.

Hard to believe about Sharper, but there has been some crazy stuff in the news regarding NFL players.

Rape. Awful crime.

I question the delay in reporting the October crime and if it is the same woman, why did she see him again?

I hate the thought I am questioning the victim (woman) but could Sharper be the victim?

Its a sad state the world has got to when you do wonder wether a woman would make something like that up.Not many worse crimes to commit or be accused of committing if you are innocent

Yeah, I don't think the stigma ever goes away.

Re: Reports: Ex-Saint Darren Sharper arrested on rape charges

Sounds like a weak case to me, only 200k bail for such a horrible crime? I understand the NFL Network removing him from TV, but suspended without pay for just an allegation?

In the court of public opinion you are guilty until proven innocent unfortunately. Who knows if he did it or not, I wouldn't put it passed him but it's a shame he has to lose his job before he gets a chance to tell his side.
