    At first this was just funny. Now I'm just sort of concerned for anyone in close proximity to him.

    The ability to avoid paying a player for failing to disclose material facts makes sense to me because contracts in business frequently get voided or cancelled due to one of the parties failing to disclose material facts. The best example(s) I can provide off the top of my head deal with insurance. Ex. 1. Home owner dies, heirs fail to notify the insurance company, home is vacant and the home and/or its contents sustain damage. Insurance companies argue failure to disclose death of home owner and fact home is vacant is material failure to disclose/breach of insurance contract and deny coverage for claim(s).

    Ex. 2. Individual gets DUI, fails to immediately notify his auto insurer, and then gets in an accident. Insurance companies are again going to argue that failure to disclose DUI is material failure to disclose/breach of insurance contract and deny coverage for claim(s).
    Too bad she doesn't cheer for the Patriots dressed like this

    He managed to force his way off three teams since the end of last season yet he could "win here!".

    Please.

    No. I'm saying they might not have to pay him his signing bonus, which he has requested because there was a failure to disclose the pending lawsuit.

    That doesnt have to be the reason they cut him. They could cut him for any reason at all.

    You realize he's going to get put on the Commissioner's exempt list the second someone signs him right? Not even close to worth the headache.

    What happened to innocent until proven guilty? He’s only “guilty” of things we’ve come to ignore in this country, this is pretty run-of-the-mill everyday behavior ... all of a sudden we can be bothered by this?

    Y’all need to make up your mind, I’m just trying to fit in but the feedback I’m getting is just relatively negative. Does AB need an endorsement from Kid Rock to get respect around here?

    What I think of innocent until proven guilty doesn't matter. What matters is he's going on the Commissioner's exempt list the second a team signs him, that's going to happen.

    Those text messages are real and he doesn't even deny it. Those are enough to keep him out.

    Still ignores the second point I made, why should I expect him to be put on EL for something that doesn’t appear to be against laws or morality anymore?

    You should expect it because it's going to happen. It was already reported it was about to happen before the Pats cut him. Why do you think they cut him if that wasn't coming down? The texts he sent (which any reasonable person would still find immoral, and is possibly illegal, and he didn't deny sending) sealed it.

    I don't care what you think should happen, I'm telling you what definitely will happen.

    I didn’t say it shouldn’t happen, he’s a ginormous POS ... I was wondering why should I expect it to happen given how morally ******* bankrupt our society has become. Being a ginormous POS is not only allowed, these days, but encouraged.

    You asked the question, I’m not trying to convince you of anything.

    AB literally hasn’t done anything that we wouldn’t otherwise completely ******* ignore, I’ve had it with the pretentious indignation when it comes to professional athletes.

    Again, the only reason the Pats cut him is because they knew what was coming down from the NFL. This is a fact.

    Fine, he’s a POS anyway. I’m just in a “win at all costs” frame of mind these days, he can play for me any day. Collateral be damned.

    Feel free to despise me for that, not sorry though.
