Superbowl LI: The Road to Houston, Texas

Surprised @count_of_monte_crist and @croppy_boy haven’t been on yet about another (ex)patriots player getting arrested. Reche Caldwell, a real fucking idiot by all the sounds of it

What did he do, bro?

Been up the walls dude sorry.

Tracking Patriots players that break the law takes too much time to be fair.

This was touted as an excellent read. I found it interesting but only relatively mildly.

Possession with intent to deal MDMA (not the shite Dublin ‘footballer’).

He’s the older brother of Detroit Lions WR Bubba Caldwell who was on the Denver roster untI’ll this off season.

Why would I care about a franchise the giants beat in superbowls?

Aqib Talib shot following a nightclub shemozzle. Released from hospital with a minor leg injury.

NBC Denver reports Aqib Talib “has told people close to him” he accidentally shot himself Sunday morning in Dallas.
Police are investigating the matter. But this sounds like Plaxico Burress 2.0. Talib was allegedly so drunk that he doesn’t even remember who shot him, but it is shaping up to be Talib himself. The bullet went through the back of his right thigh and out his calf, an odd trajectory if someone else fired the bullet. Talib will miss the rest of OTAs and minicamp and could open camp on active/NFI.

What a fucking doughnut :joy:

@count_of_monte_crist @croppy_boy

so would one consider Talib a Denver player or former Patriots player for this sort of news?

both.

2 terrible organisations.

Obviously he’s not completely rehabilitated from the time he spent in New England. Hopefully that incident will see the remaining badness drawn away from him.

Yeah, a New York Giants roster member would never have something like this happen to them. Oh wait…

in all seriousness though, he has some major off field issues and it was one of the gambles when the Patriots took him with all that baggage. Had a shit upbringing and parents in jail etc. So it’s not exactly a surprise to see him shooting himself in the foot with more off field shit. to be still at that crap though so late in his career is fucking dumb tho.

Yeah he’s a head the ball. Imagine missing out on The White House visit because of that.

How long did he stay a giants roster member after this misdemeanor?

:rollseyes:

Are you defending casting him aside rather than trying to work the player through rehabilitating the individual?

That’s a very New England attitude to take.

He was cast aside as he was going to jail, outside of the Giants duty of care.

You might want to keep your powder dry until such time as you see how the Donkeys deal with Talib.
