Jameis Winston saga (merged)

Word on the Street.

Florida State players are allowed to take food from one particular store without paying......as a perk.

He just took it from the wrong store.

Coach and QB knew that there would be major fall-out if the NCAA heard the actual truth about illegal benefits for players, so Winston did some community service, etc.

"CrabGate"
 
That Winston. What a scoundrel.

Speaking of, I heard something about the former UF player Aaron Hernandez recently. Apparently he finally got a degree. I assume it is in English because a long sentence was mentioned.

ETA: i misunderstood. He got a felony degree and a long sentence in prison.

What about that Winston, though?

Winston. The intelligence of Vince Young will all the thuggery of PacMan. No reason the Titans wouldnt draft him.
 
Maybe if you expound on JW's "thuggery" that even comes close to resembling Pac Man's

Nov. 25, 2012: A woman calls 911 to report that there are two men on a bike path on the Florida State University campus with what appears to be a black, long-barreled pistol. Police respond and draw their guns as they approach Jameis Winston and his roommate and teammate, Chris Casher, and ultimately handcuff them. The two tell the officer they were shooting at squirrels with a pellet gun, and they are released without charges being filed.

Nov. 25, 2012: A few hours after the incident on the bike path, Winston, Casher and two other Florida State players, Mario Edwards and Kenneth “P.J.” Williams, allegedly engage in a BB- and pellet-gun battle at their apartment house, inflicting an estimated $4,000 in damage. Management at the apartment house declines to press criminal charges after an FSU athletic official vows that the players will pay for the damage.

Dec. 7, 2012: Winston is accused of raping a woman at his off-campus apartment. The woman reports the assault to police that day and five weeks later calls a detective and identifies Winston as her attacker after seeing him in a class. Tallahassee police drop the investigation, contending the woman has refused to cooperate, then revive it nine months later and sent it to State Attorney Willie Meggs. Meggs conducts a new investigation but concludes that there is not enough evidence to file criminal charges. Winston’s lawyer contends the sexual encounter was consensual. The U.S. Department of Education later launches a federal investigation of the school’s handling of the incident after questions arise about whether Florida State followed the provisions of Title IX, and in August 2014 the school launches an investigation of Winston under the student code of conduct.

July 21, 2013: Winston is accused of entering a Burger King in Tallahassee and helping himself to soda from the fountain machine without paying for it. A restaurant employee later tells police she gave Winston a cup of water but that he poured the water out and helped himself to several cups of soda despite her objections. No charges are filed.

April 29, 2014: Winston is accused of stealing $32.72 worth of crab legs from a Tallahassee supermarket. He is given a civil citation that allows him to perform community service and is suspended from the FSU baseball team until he completes that work. Winston tells police he “forgot” to pay for the crab legs and publicly apologizes.

May 20, 2014: Winston is expected at a code-of-conduct hearing for Chris Casher and Ronald Darby, two FSU teammates who alleged the witnessed a portion of the sexual encounter involving the quarterback and the woman who accused him of rape. They are both accused of violating school rules. Winston does not show up for the hearing, and his lawyer contends that no one from the school ever asked him to be there – something that is disputed by attorneys involved in the process. However, FSU officials later acknowledge that they have no way to force a witness to attend a code-of-conduct hearing.

Sept. 16, 2014: Winston is seen by several students jumping up on a table on campus and screaming a sexually charged expletive-laced phrase that was made popular on the internet. FSU head football coach Jimbo Fisher suspends Winston for the first half of the team’s upcoming game with Clemson, and school officials vow that he will be subject to “internal discipline” – most likely under the school’s code of conduct. Winston apologizes.

Who the **** is saying he is a model citizen?? You struggle with the term "thug" like a typical good ole boy. There is nothing in all the things you linked that are outside of what typical college students do all the damn time (outside of the rape charge....speaking of which, have they read his guilty verdict yet? ) The rest of that crap is nothing notable and definitely not anywhere close to what Pac Man has graced the front page news with.

Deny is all you like but if it looks like a duck, acts like a duck, etc...

Just like Britt McHenry, if you chose to be in the national spotlight then you need to know how to hold yourself in higher esteem and understand you are in the constant spotlight and will be scrutinized for every thing you do, every action you make. Its not a matter of individual incidents its the total picture.

He's not a thug I want on my team.
