This is only funny when people do it well. You, sir, did not. Sorry. Good attempt though. :beer: Regardless, it's not like the NY accent is better. I'd rather sound like Peter Griffin than Mort Goldman. Give me a caawwwwlll! So damn whiny. Do you listen to yourselves? OK, but about Meriweather... I hate the guy. As a player he's waaaayyy over-rated, and as a person he seems like a complete scumbag. This story is very fishy, and a lot of things don't add up, but it wouldn't surprise me a bit. He's got a history of thuggery and, in general, seems like a lowlife. Wouldn't bother me for a second if the Patriots released him this afternoon.
They can't make roster moves because of the CBA. So they'll have to continue to try to cover up for him.
As long as the lockout isn't in place yet, they can still make cuts. Current CBA is in effect as long as they extend it.
This is all *allegedly* right now and just a lawyer from one side talking, so the title is kind of misleading. We have no idea how much there is to this for now. Of course, if a starter on the Pats roster were to be involved in a shooting there's no doubt it would be the big bang clock. He's just a fucking retahd.
As pointed out, they can make cuts anytime they want. And are you suggesting that the Patriots are trying to cover up a shooting? Are you serious or fucking around with that one? If you're serious... I think you're giving Kraft a little too much credit. He's got that kind of pull in Israel, maybe. But he owns a paper products company. He's not a Kennedy or something.
Blue Jeans Lounge? That doesn't sound like the type of place anybody would find any trouble. Seems like a nice respectable redneck bar.
Doesn't matter. Whoever the shooter was, opened fire in a party or club. There are tons of witnesses. Justice will be served.
I'm not making fun of your stupid Boston accent you moron! It's a mock on Mike Francessa...fucking retard...
Damn, I read page one and I turned the page hopeful to comment that I was in before some Pats poster chimed in, turning up the volume on "alleged." I don't see how this is fishy. He proved this year he goes for the head in football. This seems right up his alley. To his credit, he probably talked no shit during the week. Until Sunday the 27th, he shot people in the face with class.
Right, 'cause that was crystal clear to someone who doesn't live in NY and only knows about Francessa from this board. You're a true genius, by the way. "Fucking retard"... wow, that's good stuff! Do you blog? You should, assuming it doesn't interfere with your Mensa meetings. That's pure gold.
You're the asshole that assumed I was making fun of your accent, pal. Is there some oncoming traffic you can walk into?
The lawyer for the two men claiming he shot them said on WEEI this morning the police have been investigating for two weeks... The Broward county police reported later this morning that Merriweather is not and has not been under investigation as a victim or perpetrater of any crime... Two guys get shot, don't want to press charges, then decide they want to sue the alleged shooter. Must be Miami!
Oh come on... I even used the smilies toasting each other. No harm intended. You took a friendly jab and turned it into "fucking retard." You threw in a "moron" just for good measure. My mistake on the original post. Fair?
