STALLWORTH UPDATE
-
Man that brings up a very interesting scenario of different approaches .
Does it make a difference in the contract and bonus due to him ? Is it a contract breaker ?
Does it mean Edwards is safe in his position more if he is gone ?
I could go on but you see where it could go .
WOW
-
release this bum!!!!!!
So much for innocent until proven guilty...............................................
He might be guilty as hell, bu your knee jerk reaction is a little over the top. You don't release a guy you just gave a $4 million bonus to. You suspend him without pay and get your money back and off your cap.

we better go get torry holt if theres any truth to this

Wow, he basically just sent himself off the Browns roster.

Traffic hot spots
Miami Beach Police were questioning Donte Stallworth, an NFL wide-receiver, in connection with the death of a pedestrian who was hit and killed on the McArthur Causeway Saturday morning.
Traffic on the McArthur and Venetian Causeways was backed up to the mainland Saturday for hours because of the accident, which happened near the stoplight at Terminal Island.
The accident happened at 7:17 a.m., according to Det. Juan Sanchez, a police spokesman. Police had not released the name of the pedestrian.
Sanchez said Stallworth is cooperating with the police investigation. Officers drew blood from Stallworth at the scene, a way to determine if he was drinking. It is routine for officers to draw blood after fatal accidents.
Stallworth, 28, has not been charged.
He played for the New England Patriots and recently signed a $35 million contract with the Cleveland Browns.

Throw a rope over the bridge and hang him before he can wiggle out of it. Wait, first stop payment on the bonus check.
Man, they don't know shit yet and we got him doing 20 years to life. If he's proven guilty, then he should be subjected to the law as should anybody. But, let's wait until the results of the blood test are in and the guy is at least charged with something.
I'd like to find a reason to release us from his contract but cool the jets. If he's guilty of anything then let the situation evolve.

Yeah, we might want to find out what happened first. You can imagine a scenario where it's not Stallworth fault and it's just a horrible accident.
But it doesn't look good.
Talk about shuffling the draft board...

Here's the facts we have: It was 7:17am so to me this says he wasn't drinking and this was a basic blood draw like they say after a fatal accident.
Only other option would be that he drank all night long or could still possibly be intoxicated from the night before. If that were the case, I would think it would be a bigger story because he would have been hammered at the scene IMO.
My guess is that this was an accident of some sort but he wasn't drunk. He's a victim here too, even an accidental killing of someone, whether it's your fault or not, is a horrible thing to have to live with.
BTW, by most accounts Stallworth is a pretty decent guy, and I think he takes a lot of heat from fans basically because he can't stay on the field. I also don't think he's a puss, I think he's just a guy who is massively susceptible to muscle injuries and we probably should have never signed him, but speaking for myself, I was very happy when we did sign him.

I voice of reason.............hoily shit
Don't you think they would be more then just questioning him if he was impared. If you are intoxicated, they arrest you right on the spot. He hasn't been arrested or charged. So, let's wait and see. If he is at fault, then I'm sure appropriate acton will be taken.

I was happy too until I saw the return on investment . If he is clean and is found not to be on substances he better get back to Cleveland and start getting his injury prone ass in shape . This training camp is NOT going to be the RETREAT RAC ran for his term .
-
The loss of life is a terrible thing, & my prayers go out to Stallworth too. Regardless whether at fault or not, I cannot imagine having to live with a person's death resulting from an accident in which I was involved. He is facing a very difficult recovery no matter what the findings are.
It's not my place to judge.

Crabtree, here we come!
Circumstances may be pushing us to make what would be the right pick anyway...

At a time like this, when a person is less than 12 hours deceased, I will take some time to offer my condolences to the family of the victim, and prayers to both Stallworth and the family.
Sometimes it is okay to stop thinking about football and what this means to the Browns, and just act like human fooking beings for once.

In fairness to Stallworth, if I just received $5M in cash for doing nothing, I'd be out partying all night too.
Also in fairness to Stallworth, accidents do happen. So let's try and reserve judgment until we have all the facts.
Juki's correct. Crabtree fans (like me) can't help but think our odds just got better...

I agree, we all ned to stop jumping to conclusions. I would love to keep Donte on this team, he is an electrifying player when he is not injured, he is just injury prone, and yes, he does take alot of heat, and he doesn't complain about it like some other recievers do. Ive seen him make some CRAZY plays over the years and I still think he has the ability of a #1, he just needs to get a little lucky in regards to injuries.
Best of Luck Donte, I hope it was just an accident for all our sakes.

My attempt at bringing levity to the situation was clearly lost on the über-serious.
