You need to scurry back to DC where people applaud your dumbass takes instead of getting roasted in the lounge for being a dipshit.

He would cry and cry and cry.

Depends on the State it happened, but my guess by the post on here it would be a 1st degree felony with a 20 year mandatory sentence event if it was a minor injury anywhere near her midsection...

So, you bleed over DC to here and run this thread further into the ground...again classy.

Look at Iowa getting all sensitive again.

Weak weak weak.

This is really the bottom line here.

You


Me quoting TEXAS STATE LAW:


I think I'll go and try and teach my dog Algebra. It will be more productive and I'll at least enjoy the company.

What would happen if someone was a victim of Clark's pussy?

Number 4...

Get Bud Kilmer out there to the precinct and have him talk to those ol’ boys. We got us a 3-peat to chase officers, you wouldn’t want to stand in the way of that now would you???

It’s just boys being boys after all. :)

Here is the actual statute that was shared earlier:

Unless they have more evidence in text or testimony that they were racing to their destination. The only one that may fit is the bolded part, and that would be "tough to prove" as I have said over and over. While I think it is likely they were racing/showing off/driving stupidly, it is going to be hard for a prosecutor to charge/convict them with Street Racing unless there is evidence we aren't aware of existing. I take it you think they will be charged/convicted? It's just my opinion they won't with the current facts.

Morgan Wallen is facing 3 felonies for throwing a chair and almost hitting a couple cops.

He’ll get community service and will have to enter rehab.

I NEVER inferred anything of the such you butt ****ing moron. You're making shit up AGAIN. Consider writing fairy tales. It seems it might be one of your few reliable attributes.

Well, it's not like they're Missourians...

Yeah! Anyone not from Jackson County is a piece of shit! /CP stadium vote thread

What the **** does that have to do with this thread?

the people spouting FELONY and mandatory prison time, etc

so do roofers, plumbers, auto mechanics, hospice care workers, firefighters, police detectives, refrigerator repairemen, and the Kansas City Chiefs.

Anyone have an idea when Goodell is going to come to a decision on this? Is he waiting for the legal ruling first?


Also, have they released the highway cam video(s) yet? Gotta be some tape from those cams somewhere.

It’s very odd now little is trickling out, which makes me believe the Dallas PD is on board with making sure their SMU legend can play all 17 games in our 3-peat season! LFG!

I wondered if that would happen in this case. Guess we'll see eventually. Obviously, if they decide to soft pedal this and let Rice off with a slap on the wrist, that's great for the Chiefs in 2024.


Though a part of me wishes that one of these players finally gets more than just a slap on wrist; maybe serve as a warning that people won't put up with this kind of nonsense anymore. If it weren't a Chiefs player, I'd probably be a lot more adamant about it.

He hasn't even been charged with anything yet let alone had it litigated.

Let's get to 5000 posts just to be sure though.

Oh yeah, I'm completely fooling around here for the most part. The kid really needs to take this as the biggest lesson life has ever taught him so far. God only knows how close he was to killing someone else, or himself.

i wasn't sure if he'd been charged yet. Not following this story very closely right now. Just kind of checking every once in a while.


As far as Goodell is concerned, I don't think he has any obligation to wait for any of that.

Standard practice by PITLA is 9 days in bed. Apparently.

When's the toughest part of our schedule? Once that comes out, we'll have a clearer idea.

Yeah, something like that.


I mean, I wasn't a square as a kid; God knows I did my share of dumb things in HS up through my mid-twenties, and some of them in cars. Street racing included. Though racing during rush hour seems like a whole other level of reckless/stupid. Anyway, I'm not standing here on my soapbox preaching/whining about how terrible these kids are. They're kids; they're going to do dumb/immature things.

But it just seems like these incidents during the offseason are increasing in frequency and the risks seem to be increasing as well, in spite of the fact that they have more options to be safer about their thrill-seeking.


Maybe the NFL needs to get them to channel their energies into safer activities. Fly-fishing, for example. Pretty hard to kill/injure people fly-fishing at the local pond.

IN!

Let's all post more copy and paste Texas law!

LFG!

Lol, you're right. Forgot about that. nice catch.:D

Wealthy people have been getting away with stuff that peasants don't for millennia.

Ask and you shall receive.

Damn man, I'm a freaking FELON.


lock me up

One more, just for fun.

Looks like that Reeruned life-fail Pablo should avoid Texas.

Dallas LAW!!!

I think he was only driving a little too fast is all.

He was driving along and suddenly he lost control of the car but did his best to avoid innocent people.

Correct, he's going to pay a pretty heavy monetary penalty, but he was really lucky no one was killed. Hopefully he sees this as a gift and a chance to make better decisions moving forward. If, not, see ya.

You don't think a concussion could lead to bed rest? The lawyer says she is suffering from post concussive symptoms. Concussion symptoms can last weeks to months. Not everything is a money grab and I am giving her (the victim) the benefit of doubt.

Man...what a srew up... should have stayed home and played video racing.... sorry.... he wasn't racing - just driving recklessly. Driving recklessly is not a felony.

Mahomes really doesn't need great receivers any way - throw his @$$ in jail.

You should go drive really fast.
Like, right now.

Find Chiefaholic and you can buddy up, breakout and go on the run together.

No, I don't. Specifically after not being hospitalized after a detailed exam after the accident. Again, she and her lawyer are doing exactly what I would do, just don't be naive and think this is not a ruse.

I think the NFL does plenty already. I bet there's plenty of speeches at the Combine, Rookie Minicamp, OTA's, etc about growing up and taking this opportunity seriously. Only bad things happen after 1, keep your friends and your work separate, be aware of your image and how you use it, all that stuff that basically equates to be a professional. The NFL has plenty of coaches and past players that give sound advice to rookies.

But even with all the sound advice in the world, these young 20 somethings with a ton of money are surrounded by temptation and peer pressure on all fronts. It requires a lot of inner discipline and maturity at that age to ignore it all, and some of these guys just don't have that. If there were character flaws before the money and fame, that all will just amplify it, and your flaws will eventually reveal themselves.

5k posts you say??

I've developed an AI chat addiction.


Q: when someone is running from the law "is it on the lam" or "on the lamb" and what are the origins of this saying?

The correct phrase is "on the lam."


The origins of this phrase are a bit murky, but there are a few theories:

• Old Norse Origin: The most likely origin comes from the Old Norse word "lam" meaning "to beat or cripple." This suggests someone is running away to avoid punishment or consequences for their actions.
• Prison Break: Some suggest a connection to the 16th-century slang "to take a lam" which meant escaping jail.
• Misheard Expression: Another theory is that the phrase could be a mishearing of "on the land," referring to someone staying out of sight and moving across the land.

It's important to note that the phrase has no connection to actual lambs, the animal!

I don't think I've ever heard that phrase. But hey, I learned something today! Maybe Ceedee Lamb will commit a crime so Lamb can be on the Lam

You would fake injuries to get more money out of someone than what is actually reasonable and commit insurance fraud because the other guy is loaded?

Stand up dude right there. LMAOLMAOLMAO

Loochy, every time you break out that shtick it besoms more original and funny in your own head.

Go away, loser. Or at least find a new unfunny and unoriginal shtick to bore us with.

However, I hear temper tantrums can be healthy as opposed to holding it all in so roll with it maybe.

OK, this thread made me wonder if I am being dismissive about this not being a big deal. Well, now that I have looked into statistics in Dallas.... it isn't a big deal. This occurs ALL the time there. In fact, Dallas averages 97 to 147 car accidents a day and 39% of those accidents involve injury or death. Specifically, accidents like this happen 64 times a day in Texas (speeding 25+ or more over the limit)... I have included the statistics below if you like copy pasta

According to TX DOT, the top crash-contributing factors across Texas in 2022 were:

Failure to Control Speed (too fast for conditions), causing 136,165 crashes, including 577 fatal crashes and 42,738 causing injuries.
Unsafe Speed (driving faster than 25 MPH over the posted speed limit), causing 23,633 crashes, including 457 fatal crashes and 8,297 injuries.
Speeding (driving over the posted speed limit), causing 2,599 crashes, including 299 fatal crashes and 1,627 injuries.
Driver Inattention (distracted driving), causing 84,887 crashes, including 332 fatal crashes and 24,943 causing injuries.
Unsafe Lane Changes, causing 45,833 crashes, including 91 fatal crashes and 8,558 causing injuries.
Failure to Drive in Single Lane, causing 45,632 crashes, including 830 fatal crashes and 13,194 causing injuries.
Failure to Yield Right of Way to Oncoming Traffic When Turning Left, causing 35,674 crashes, including 23 fatal crashes and 14,670 causing injuries.
Failure to Avoid a Collision, causing 21,735 crashes, including 273 fatal crashes and 7,451 causing injuries.
Following Too Closely (rear-end collision), causing 20,681 crashes, including 11 fatal crashes and 6,191 causing injuries.
Driving Under The Influence of Alcohol, causing 15,402 crashes, including 714 fatal crashes and 6,618 causing injuries.

Been out for a few days - did he get the death penalty yet?

Rape happens all the time... still a big deal.

Murder happens all the time... still a big deal.

Breaks ins happen all the time... still a big deal.

Robbery happens all the time... still a big deal.

Assault happens all the time... still a big deal.

So death penalty then?

100%

Dude is lucky he didn't have kids or it would be a "sins of the father" type situation and they would have to be killed too.

No, but this thread should.

Seriously, **** all the way off with this bullshit. Rape, murder, break ins, robbery, and assault all have a victim that is severely afffected by these actions. Nobody was seriously injured/affected due to Rice and his friends being stupid.

Lone... I need you to go back and re-read the post I replied to. In case it eludes you I'm still gonna break down my response.

The statement that was made was that it "wasn't a big deal" because "it happens all the time". The point I am making is that "it happens all the time" doesn't reduce the seriousness of anything. I'm not directly comparing those things to what happened with Rice. I'm pointing out that how often it happens has no bearing on how serious things are.

Hope that helped.

They're just trying to figure out whether it's lethal injection or the chair.

Car accidents are not a big deal. Your false equivalency isn't either... even though you made it but then said you didn't make it.

Yes ma... this was your normal run of the mill missed a stop sign and bumped fenders.

Yes... I am totally making murder and what Rice did equivalent. That makes far more sense that what I stated. :shake:

WTF?

Schtick? What schtick?

I had never heard that phrase before. Now I have, plus I know its origin.

Maybe it's hard to believe, but just because I think you are a moron sometimes doesn't mean I think you are a moron all the time. I can still engage you in a normal conversation, and that's what I was doing there.

I believe they're just putting the finishing touches on the Braveheart style guillotine and rack setup. Gonna really need to do this right - afterall, this is big shit in Dallas and they're gonna make an example of him.

Gotta do it right.

LMAO... I would let me lawyer handle the communication as this lady is... I'm sure she she was sore and it was easier to be in bed, and thus the communication which is not insurance fraud. If so, every accident lawyer in the country would be disbarred for recommending similar actions for their clients. Again, if she was the one at fault with the same injuries she would probably be out and about, but she's not so she can afford to rest in bed. It's not a real hard concept to grasp.

I remember you and I had a debate about drunk driving years back. You mentioned that you had a friend over for a BBQ (or something of the sort) who got a little too drunk and was going to drive home. You threatened that you would call the cops on him if he left, IIRC.

Just curious how you feel about Rice and his friends putting however-many lives at risk with their stupidity when you seem to have a zero tolerance for drunk driving? This is not me being a dick, by the way. I’m just asking.

This was a run of the mill accident. There were minor injuries. Had this not been an NFL player, this most likely would not have made the local news as this is occurs many times every day in Dallas. We don't have to agree, I am fine with that; however, just because you feel it is a big deal doesn't change the way I feel about it.

I disagree

Lucky

I'm not trying to change your mind. I am only refuting the statement that the frequency with which it happens makes it "not a big deal".

A concussion is a major injury and specifically major trauma and the impact can be permanent, A small cut is a minor injury.

There are different levels of concussions; however, typically concussions are categorized as a "mild brain injury."

The severity of what occurs makes it a big deal or not. This was not a severe occurrence; therefore; it is not a big deal.

Pay per view opportunity?

I hope is is THIS IS SPARTA style!

:banghead:

I am only refuting the statement that the frequency with which it happens makes it "not a big deal".

If your kid starts a fire outside that only singed the hair off your other child and only by luck did it not catch your house on fire... was that not a big deal?

No one was actually hurt and the house didn't burn down so... why would anyone care that one of your kids could have burned down your house and immolated your other kid? No bid deal right because the severity of what happened was actually nothing. The house wasn't damaged and hair re-grows... right?

I think it could potentially not be that big of a deal.

It is not a big deal because the house didn't burn down. Would I use this as a teachable moment, absolutely. Would I charge my child with arson and ruin their life for it because it could have burned the house down.. or in fact the whole town... why stop there... all life on the planet could have ended due to this heinous act... Wow, thanks for opening my eyes... this was a big deal. I hope I can sleep tonight and not worry about my kids burning earth from existence.

LMAO @ "burning the earth from existence" and "ruin their life"

Nothing like logical fallacies (Reducio Ad Absurdem) to brighten one's day.

Haveagoodone!

Yes, you probably say to your kid, "this could have been a much bigger deal, you were lucky it didn't cause more issues. You then ground them for a week and make them do some chores. 20 years down the road, you can actually joke about it and how stupid their act was and how lucky they were. It would have been a big deal and devastating if they had burned down the house or severely burned their sibling. Everyone is saying Rice ****ed up and made a horrible decision, but he was lucky or this would have been a "much bigger deal"... but those things didn't happen, or it would still be on the news in a big way and Rice would be cut and facing serious jailtime.
