Chiefs Chiefs press conference on Tyreek Hill - Page 8

**RealSNR** · 04-30-2016, 07:47 PM

Starting a whole new thread about this because I think it's a pretty important to get the justification and story from the people who made the pick. Was posted in the original thread, but I know it's going to get lost in the still vibrant discussion.

Basically, Dorsey would normally let his scout team handle questions about the last day so he can do UDFA stuff, but he felt he needed to address the press and media about it before too many stories got carried away. So they spent basically a full 20 minutes discussing the morality of picking somebody like Hill.

For people who don't really care to listen, Dorsey and Reid basically give a single answer: "We've done our homework, so please trust us."

Props go to Terez Paylor for asking the tough and pointed questions about this. He's got some balls as a journalist that I've never seen out of the KC Star.

Show me the evidence that he "sucker punched" and "choked out" this woman. Her actual allegations are bad enough without you exaggerating them to try and make a point.

Not sure if I can cheer for him though but the talent is there he's lightning quick!

I'll have to think bout it

The problem people have is the due diligence on him is that they believe he won't do this again. Not about whether he was guilty of the act.

I'm all for second chances. But after you are punished. While I agree with Reid that Michael Vick deserved a second chance, the only reason Vick got a second chance is that he went to jail and had to suffer through teams passing up on him for a year or two. They had to have everything taken away before they got a second chance.

As long as a dude can keep himself from suspension and can help the team win, that's all I've ever cared about.

A lot of people disagree.

This is not GOSSIP. Gossip would be saying "I wonder who Tyreek Hill is dating these days". This was a vicious, violent assault against his pregnant girlfriend that he ****ing admitted doing and called a "mistake".

He punched and choked his pregnant girlfiend. **** him.

I'm a huge fan of Reid and Dorsey, and I am usually willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. But this is a horrible ****ing decision. I will never root for Tyreek Hill.

It's obvious some people don't give a shit about this guys character issue, they just want to "trust the process" and see some kicks returned to the house.

So it goes...

Dude, he ****ing admitted it. Don't give us some bullshit theory about him being forced to admit something he didn't do as part of a plea bargain. If you're accused of doing something so vile and disgusting, AND YOU DIDN'T DO IT, you don't say you did do it, and call it a mistake.

This is exactly like the Rams drafting Lawrence Phillips, and then Dick Vermeil going on television to defend "the kid" and say how he deserves a second chance. He doesn't. By the way, how did that work out for Lawrence Phillips and the Rams? How did it work out Lawrence Phillips' cell mate in prison last year?

I hope this ****er blows his knee out in training camp. I don't want to see him play a down for my team.

You can root for Lawrence Phillips redux if you want. I won't be.

Edit: This was a response to tmax63's post that he quickly deleted. He deleted his post, but calls his post "rational thought".

That's because it's a football forum and not a Domestic abuse forum. I don't like what he did at all, but we are talking about a kid here and not some grown ass adult. He ****ed up. People around here want to break out the pitch forks and stones. Seems like the crowds in medieval times cheering when they beheaded someone at the guillotine. You would have thought the guy murdered and raped an entire village.

Lil' Timmy didn't throw a rock at the neighbors house and blame it on the dog.

This is a wee bit different.

If you choose not to see it, that's on you.

Eh, I'm saddened to report that a great majority of NFL fans across the league have shown signs of great reerunery this draft.

Pitt fan: "Thank god Apple is gone, don't want a CB". "Thank god Alexander is gone, don't want a CB".

Gets Artie Fufkin, Polymer U.

Oh...
