Bad Timing And Decision: 49ers DT Ray McDonald allegedly involved in domestic violence dispute.

 

I guess Adam Schefter approves of domestic violence in February or March?

 

Bad timing as he gets to be the first to test the new policy.

Going to have to be 6 games and then another 3-4 as a result of the woman being pregnant...

So last week would have been good timing to beat a pregnant woman? I guess I see what he is trying to say, but come on now, especially as such a public spokesperson

I think you're reading into it a bit much. Right after he said bad timing, he said wrong decision.

 

He's clearly not endorsing people to beat their wives.

The problem is there's really no way to come off in that statement without looking "iffy".

I get it, but it's just the way ESPN keeps treating domestic violence like a speeding ticket to protect their NFL image.

 

He has over 3 million followers and he's so concerned McDonald may face a longer suspension because it happened this week, not last week. Never mind the pregnant woman he beat up.

I am curious to see the bears practice squad, they also need to find another longsnapper since they cut Hartson today

The Rams will not sign free agent DE Michael Sam to their practice squad.

 

Sam cleared waivers Sunday. St. Louis will announce its ten-man practice squad on Monday, and Sam won't be on it. The 249th overall pick in May's draft played well enough in preseason games to earn a look elsewhere, but to this point Sam has generated no known interest since being waived by the Rams.

This to me pretty much says the Rams used one of their 3 7th round picks as a favor to draft Sam with no real intentions of keeping him on their roster in any form.

They might have the best defensive line in all of football, so it probably wasn't the best landing spot for him.

That's the real issue,t they're deep enough at that position that as a football decision they can't keep an extra DLineman on their practice squad.

 

All you can ask is that how they're treating him is fair based on football decisions and so far that's true.

 

I am getting a bit tired of the excessive attention though, he isn't a big enough impact player to receive hours of time discussed on TV. Hopefully the start of the actual season cuts that back.

Bears practice squad

 

WR Josh Bellamy

OL Taylor Boggs

DT Brandon Dunn

CB Isaiah Frey

LB Dede Lattimore

OL Ryan Groy

CB Al Louis-Jean

CB Terrance Mitchell

DT Roy Philon

WR Rashad Ross

Pretty boring sans Mitchell who I remember being highly thought of in the draft before pulling a hammy. Think he was 2nd-3rd round projected.

 

 

No Lynch on the practice squad, eh?

I can't think of many practice squads that are exciting

There were some guys out there to make it interesting...Sam, Lynch, etc. etc. But ya you're right.

I think Al Louis Jean is exciting. At 20 he reminds me of someone like M. Wilson who you really can see them using this time to get stronger and eventually be a contributor.

He's not concerned just stating a fact. It's bad timing on the part of the moron player. He does this last week, 2 games. He does it this week 6 games. It is bad timing for him. Of course idiots who do this type of thing don't have brains anyway.

A Dunn on the bears? No playoffs this year.

Which only helps support what I said earlier.

 

My conspiracy theory is Goodell asked Fisher to draft him as a favor so the NFL would look good

JJ Watt got paid. 6 years/100M, 51.8M guaranteed

Sam and Lynch not making practice squads makes the Mizzou and NIU fan in me sad.
