I agree. As it should be handled. That may just be the "hopeful FSU fan" side of me that has rarely come out during all of this.
Unfortunately, I don't think Winston will be available for a possible national championship game. I hope I'm wrong though (if he is truly innocent of these accusations)

What percentages are you playing?

Some of them can't. They can't see the tragedy of it all, but only that the one hope of beating Bama is slipping away.

I'm guessing the Vandy kids will be found guilty.
How many do I need to list?

With the amount of money and influence these three accusers had it would have been almost impossible to convict any of them without video and audio proof they did it. Even then fans would have said the females had it coming

Eta: regardless, this has nothing to do with this case. I was just pointing out why my gut reaction is the way it is. I never once claimed it is an absolute. I think everything should be investigated to the fullest, which doesn't appear happened in this case

I asked how many you want. Two Oakland basketball players were picked up on rape last week.
Mizzou recently lost a RB to a rape conviction and a guard on the bball team transferred after his second sexual assault allegation cropped up.
I think your perception may not be accurate.

Well if were using duke lacross team as high profile athletes...
Off the top of my head i can think of Mike Tyson, Cecil Collins, Thomas Henderson, Reuben Patterson and Eddie Johnson. All charged with sexual assault or rape.
You think of Kobe, Big Ben, and Duke Lacross team that got off, so most of rape charges on high profile athletes are BS?? Right right... makes a lot of sense. 3 people found innocent in the last 5 years, yet wayyyy more were found guilty.
Please do some research. Especially before making a statement like that, which is just not true.

No im with you and all. Just dont make a statement like you did and claim you were playing the percentages without actually playing the percentages.
Does it happen where people claim rape against high profile athletes and its not true and they get off? Yes sometimes. Im not denying that.
But the amount of them that are found guilty is way more than the amount of ones that get off.
And yea Monty that was spot on.
