There's no fricking way a cop should be allowed to do that.

What world do you live in?

Tiger spin-machine in full effect. So some people heard it was the cop's fault. Who cares? That's like saying Jeremy Hill wasn't guilty until the cell-phone video showed up.

I just don't know why bother defending Miles when it's clear he's prioritizing on-field performance over media embarrassment and internal chemistry. It is what it is. Does every coach do this? Sure, so why try to spin the only facts? Everyone knows what a cop is and only people with giant egos convince themselves they can talk back to them.

Dude's bro gets caught selling pot, and Miles doesn't flinch. Then dude gets hit with a felony charge and Miles signs him up. He's not from the Calliope but Destrehan doesn't exactly have a concentration of high-income residents. High chance this dude gets in trouble again at LSU, and as fans we'll be the ones hearing about it. Do I really only care about what happens on Saturdays? Sure, but I don't really see the point in defending Miles's discipline / character evaluation anymore.
