re: If you have Fournette's back post here.

So you support convicting people when they're first accused?

Of course not.

I was just saying that the other poster who said he supports a guy unless he's convicted of a crime has an absurdly high threshold.

What if a Tiger player was accused of a vicious rape and murder, and the evidence seemed overwhelming? But he sat in jail for a year awaiting trial.

Would I still support him for the year that he was in jail, but not "convicted." Of course not. I can look at a situation with clear eyes to determine whether a guy gets my support. And a conviction isn't required for a player to lose my support.
