'10 NC DE Prince Shembo (In hot water)

[dublinirish]

I always liked Prince at ND. Thought he under achieved though. I always thought he would make a good NFL linebacker someday. He has the athleticism and size.

if only he could have played MLB from the start :/

Apparently facing felony animal cruelty charges.

Felony charges against former Falcons dog-killer Prince Shembo dropped | ProFootballTalk

Because a 5-pound dog bit a 254-pound former NFL linebacker, he was able to get by on misdemeanor charges for killing it.

According to D. Orlando Ledbetter of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, felony charges against former Falcons linebacker Prince Shembo were dropped after he pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor and paid a $1,000 fine.

You can tell it is "Murica" because linebacker that kicks and kills dog was sentenced, fined and still may face league sanctions if he resumes his career. However, a football player that breaks a quarterback's jaw with a sucker-punch is what? Not investigated for criminal charges, but traded and signed by another team in days, with what league repercussions?

I guess the thing that gets me is the way every article about Prince and the former dog, has a mention of "the sexual assault incident."

I do not condone breast fondling (without permission), making out with the mentally ill, being a bastard, or kicking dogs, but I do think this is a sad and twisted situation, bordering on the comical!

* I love you guys; my entire post is about the situation not your comments!

It would be REALLY nice if this circus ended and the board would not have to be inflicted to any more non-productive and unpleasant talk about Shembo. I have to "unsubscribe" to threads like this; completely negative to my quality-of-life experience on IE. So, I will ... and Happy Trails to all who like this sort of stuff.

In defense of the 3rd string LB that punched Geno... Word has it that Geno actually threw the first punch, but it got intercepted.

Its been pretty well reported that the punch was not a "sucker punch", but that the two were in each other's face when the punch was thrown, with Geno Smith sticking his finger in the other guy's face.

Also hearing that many Jets players were happy that it happened. Apparently Geno isn't that well liked.

the guy has been a tool for a long time. WTF are they even doing with him on the team anyways, as soon as he's healthy they should cut him
