What I don’t understand is what do you mean Tanard was not charged or found guilty. I thought he tested positive with a drug test.

Feel free to link to a story or court record where Tanard Jackson was charged by the state of Florida with a drug crime and found guilty or entered a plea of guilty. If so this is all news to Joe.

I haven’t heard about Billing’s face and evidence of being pistol whipped. That’s the type of evidence I have been asking people to provide. If Talib used the gun as a weapon in any way, then I’m right there with you and everyone else that he needs to be gone.

Remember, Texas isn’t as open as Florida and some states. Just a hunch, but if the guy really did get pistol whipped, the cops took photos of the damage to the guy’s grill.

I understand that the warden does what he wants, and I’m not doubting that he is going to suspend Talib. I just don’t think it’s fair if Talib never used a gun. But yeah, you are right, that probably won’t stop him.

If Talib gets released, we’re in big trouble. Period

How on Earth did the Bucs manage to somehow win three of four games — including a victory over the Super Bowl champions in their house — without God’s gift to a secondary in uniform?

Man, people act like Talib is Deion Sanders.

If Talib gets released or traded, there is only one person to blame: Talib.

That’s what I’m saying Patrick! I’ve asked that question on 4 separate posts, and have yet to get an answer.

We are talking two different animals and Joe is not sure why people can’t see the difference.

Roger Goodell does not, never had to have, evidence that results in a conviction to suspend Talib. Was Tanard Jackson convicted of a crime? No he was not. Hell, Jackson wasn’t even charged with anything. Talib cannot brag as much.

People also seem to forget that, while there may be witnesses claiming Talib didn’t shoot a gun, what of the evidence of the victim’s face that Talib tried to pistol whip?

No matter the motives, there was a hassle that involved police, a gun, and probably physical violence with Talib being charged and arrested.

This is ample ammunition for Goodell to spank him for multiple games no matter what a jury decides.

Remember, Talib is a repeat offender in the court of Roger Goodell.

This is 2011 and not 1874 and Dodge City. Talib — who the Bucs specficially and the NFL in general are paying seven-figures of salary to — is supposed to act somewhat like a professional and not like a cowboy of the 19th century.
