He looked to have more ethics than that. I'm so disappointed if this is true.

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

I'm no attorney but the way I see it, Darren might be fighting off District Attorneys in 4 states. He better hope the Feds don't jump in with some drug charge since he 'crossed' state lines. I would say he is in BIG trouble.

Very surprised to read these current accusations on Sharper.

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

I think it's obvious that there's a pattern here.

Innocent people usually come out to the world and announce their innocence and defend themselves as such. Unless some miraculous gold digging conspiracy is out there, he is toast - and should be toast because this is sick.

My prayers to the victims. Not really praying for Sharper because he'll have time to sort his life out in jail. Still has to be convicted, but that's what the justice system is there for.

Heard the Butt-Hole Surfers' Pepper today on the radio. This lyric stuck out to say the least.

If true that is seriously disgusting

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

No kidding. Its why I rarely look up to football players as "class acts". They entertain us, and thats it.

Class is my neighbor down the street that volunteers to help the needy whenever anyone asks, and he'd be lucky to make 80,000 in a year and no one asks him for a damn autograph or wears a f'ing jersey with his name on it.

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

Off-topic but I can't stand holding football players or entertainers up as "role models" for anything. It's just an excuse for people to be lazy and not be role models for their own kids.

I totally agree with disgusting. What makes it sick is he's a good looking person, can get whatever women he wants, but he still has to drug them. That's not only disgusting and sick, but also SAD!

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

Rape isn't about sex, its about power.

And yes Halo, its sick. If it was my daughter he did this to, I'd have a hard time not putting a bullet or two in his head.

Damn man... That Super Bowl season's defense will now bring to mind bounties and rape.

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

Wow... Getting worse by the hour...

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

It's true. I've been around football locker rooms too much, even in high school and college you can see the macho crap and sense of entitlement goes to their heads. These guys get away with anything they want because they wear a helmet and pads on the weekend and they get a skewed sense of reality.

Here is are role model


VC(Victoria Cross) winners

Lachhiman Gurung

On 12/13 May 1945 at Taungdaw, Burma [now Myanmar], Rifleman Lachhiman Gurung was manning the most forward post of his platoon which bore the brunt of an attack by at least 200 of the Japanese enemy. Twice he hurled back grenades which had fallen on his trench, but the third exploded in his right hand, blowing off his fingers, shattering his arm and severely wounding him in the face, body and right leg. His two comrades were also badly wounded but the rifleman, now alone and disregarding his wounds, loaded and fired his rifle with his left hand for four hours, calmly waiting for each attack which he met with fire at point blank range. Afterwards, when the casualties were counted, it is reported that there were 31 dead Japanese around his position which he had killed, with only one arm


Bhandari Ram

On 22 November 1944, in East Mayu, Arakan, during a company attack on a strongly held Japanese bunkered position, No. 24782 Sepoy Bhandari Ram was in the leading section of one of the platoons. To reach its objective, his platoon had to climb a precipitous slope, by way of a narrow ridge with sheer sides. When fifty yards from the top, the platoon came under heavy and accurate machine-gun fire. Three men were wounded, amongst them Sepoy Bhandari Ram, who received a burst in his left shoulder and a wound in his leg. The platoon was pinned down by the intense enemy fire.


Action by Sepoy Bhandari Ram, 22 November 1944, Arakan, Burma
Bhandari Ram then crawled up to the Japanese machine-gun, whilst in full view of the enemy, and approached to within fifteen yards of the enemy, who hurled grenades at him, wounding him in the face and chest. Undeterred and severely wounded, this sepoy, with superhuman courage and determination, crawled up to within five yards of his objective. He then threw a grenade into the position, killing the enemy gunner and two other men, and continued his crawl to the post. Inspired by his example, the platoon rushed up and captured the position. It was only after the position had been taken that he lay down and allowed his wounds to be dressed. By his cool courage, determination to destroy the enemy at all cost and total disregard for his personal safety, this young sepoy enabled his platoon to capture what he knew to be the key to the whole enemy position. For his outstanding bravery, selflessness and qualities beyond the call of duty, Sepoy Bhandari Ram was awarded the Victoria Cross

This is not looking good for Sharper.....sounds like it's way more than simply a "misunderstanding". If the allegations turn out to be correct, this guy is one sick puppy!

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

They're coming out the wood work now. One woman says something, 6 others come out of no where. Gotta prove it in court.

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

Truth! A part of me keeps hoping this isn't the way it happened.

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

Not uncommon at all, especially when its a celebrity involved. A lot of times when its rape cases with a celebrity women are afraid to press charges because they will be labeled as golddiggers, seeking a pay day etc. Then when one presses charges it gets easier to follow.

This is why I use this as my forum signature: "A Veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America" for an amount of "up to and including my life."

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

But the police reports were all filed at different times. This isn't a case where one person says something and then a bunch of others pile on. If you read the arraignment document it's pretty clear these were all independent events.

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

I just wish they would start out with NFL Commentator Darren Mallory Sharper after all that is his current employer (or was). He was with Green Bay & Minnesota for most of his playing career he was here for only a short time. Whatever the outcome he works for the NFL Network which is owned by the NFL exclusively operated by Roger Goodell.

Kind of like Hollywood movie stars!!

It gets uglier:

Very confusing. A wealthy, some women would say handsome, and articulate guy needs to drug women? Color me confused.

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

It would seem Sharper created opportunities both on and off the field.

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

damn sharper, hope not true but darn man, u have the audacity to yap in front of millions on nfl network and think it aint boiling over on your accusers. say it ain't true dude.

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

Court of law and court of public opinion are two different things. Unless someone can produce evidence of what he used as a DRD, it becomes a case of he said they said.

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

The skit "Pick Magnet" he did on NFLN takes on an entirely different meaning now...

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

Where there is smoke there is usually fire. This is a ton of billowing smoke. I hope it's not true but either way he is ruined. He is going to have to spend his life savings on his defense and all anyone will remember when they hear his name is a controversy.

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

LOL at the people who still defend Sharper here.

He helped us win a Super Bowl therefore he must be innocent.

I swear I could show some of you a video of Sharper raping your mother and you'd still say, "He said, she said."

The guy's a scumbag and a serial rapist with many, many mental problems. Sad, because he was always one of my favorite players.

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

Who defended him?

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

Yea if I had to bet I would bet he is guilty. He has to be proven guilty in a court of law but not in the court of public opinion. He can rape all he wants in prison.
