Recruiting Football Talk VII

It’s different.

Was the punch to the head an in-game mid-play move?

Driving and drunk driving is not inherently violent. Hockey is. If he was trying to hurt the guy, the only thing that matters is was it “legal” or “illegal” within the rules of hockey. It’s the difference between a “good hit” and a “dirty play”, but it’s still a “play”, not a criminal act. You can’t take the play out of its context to seek justice for the tragedy. You might as well sue the whole league and all its players that have knowingly took part in it.

I feel you that it's different than a guy sucker punching someone because it's mid play. The precedent for someone to be charged for something they did in a sporting event is there though, at least somewhat related to this. Hockey is inherently violent but I've personally never seen someone kick a sharp skate at someones' neck/head intentionally, mid game or not. It probably has happened, just saying it's at least rare. When the sport requires you to wear sharp objects on your feet that can cut someone, I believe it's against the law and rules to use them intentionally to maim someone, mid game or not. I'd equate it to a football or soccer player forcefully stomping a players head with cleats and the player dies. Both could be considered violent sports but that's totally out of context of the play. Sure, he attempted to make it look like an accident, and proving the intent to injure may be difficult. I'm pretty sure this will go in front of a judge to make that call though. So, we'll see.

It’s a denial of the Pat Summitt uniforms Saturday.

I like the Uni's, would be cool with the Urnge hemets.

But, we have orange, white, gray, and black unis. wear one of those.

I’d looooove for Kensucky to lose to Missippi State this weekend.

They should win. State is pitiful

A night game in Columbia, MO in mid November sounds so miserable.

You're welcome. We had to pressure the network. -- Sankey prolly

 

[drvenner]

Normally I pull it all out and then just deposit something back in when I want to bet.

TWSS?

A prior poster made a good point. This could wind up as a CBS game, because it would make it likely 4 consecutive weeks that Georgia will play on the network and they’ve already played 2 prior games this season.

I’d rather deal with Gary and get an afternoon game rather than listen to Jordan Rodgers in the cold for a 6:30 SECN game.

Wrong on so many levels. Stop it, Enki!

Second degree murder (in the US, for comparison) doesn't require intention, nor does manslaughter. There is also an explicit category for involuntary manslaughter. Recklessness and/or negligence is a sufficient condition. If he were an ordinary Joe, most prosecutors would overcharge him and then offer him a "deal" to plead guilty some form of manslaughter or risk the sentence of the greater charge at an expensive trial. Of course, athletes in the US beat hell out of people, stomp their heads, act as accessories to murder, etc., with no criminal repercussions. I have seen on-court assaults in basketball that imo warranted criminal charges.

I don't think it was a hockey move.

Meanwhile, in the Alabama men's basketball meeting room...

Watched the first one last night. Still holds up. Incredible in all facets, the perfect horror movie.

I watched the 3 most recent ones that came out the last 5 or so years. The first of that trilogy is pretty good but the 2nd and 3rd are ridiculous.

 

[BarrythesnoUT]

Then there is this clown

We stay in their heads year round.

Is a shame. Purely as a one off never to be worn again, I do like those jersies. I think they'd be a big hit with our lady Vol fans.

Yes, and then sell them for Alzheimers charity.

Ok, nice gentlemen of VN..I need some recommendations for a good scary movie tonight.

Just watch most of the Vols football games during the Dooley, Butch, and Cornbread era.

 

[Ashevolle]

The enforcer guys in Hockey are usually the less coordinated guys on the ice… Doubt it was intentional but whether he is charged or not. His life is over…. Everyone knows who is and i couldnt imagine living with that guilt.

Without a doubt.

The rule of thumb is that, as the visitor, the earlier the game the better.
As the host team, the later you can play the better.

 

[Adam Sandler]

Don’t need to watch. Dukes is the only acceptable option.

Evil Dead 2.

Scary, funny, campy, cult classic. Love this movie.
