I think its too early to jump over this guy. On the Bill Shank show, they said it was a small arse dog, probably no more than 15lbs. I'm not defending him if he did kick it and kill it on purpose but a big dude could easily kicked the dog on accident and kill it. Also Bill said he about killed his moms dog by sitting on it, so some freak accident coulda happened too. Just saying we should let the facts come out first. Also look at Brian Banks and that bitch who made false claims on him, same coulda happened here.

Plus we all know them small arse dogs think they are hot shite and usually are very defensive of women (since most owners of small dogs are women) and the dog could of bit him or at him and he kicked at it to back it off but accidentally killed it... 253 lb man vs a 10 lb dog. I only say this b/c my aunt had a small dog and he would bit at everyone who got close to her, including her husband. He almost bit me one time and I kicked the frick out it (as a kid).

EDIT: I also like how the cops charge him w/ a felony for it, yet cops kill dogs all the time it seems, with no felony charges.

Couple things...

First, it's a misdemeanor with max of $1k fine and 1 year in jail for first offense, which this is. They didn't charge him with a felony.

Second, he's already admitted to kicking the dog. It actually lived for a little while but then died at the vet from massive internal injuries.

This was no accident. This is why the Falcons have wasted no time waiving him. There's no investigation needed.

Dawg fans should have a no tolerance policy when it comes to killing Dawgs. Go directly to jail, do not pass go.

Hey man quick hijack. Did you happen to sell a sign to someone on Tybee? If so, that fricker is proudly displayed in plain sight on Highway 80. You can't miss it and it looks awesome

Falcons just signed OG Chris Chester after he was released by Washington to free up cap space there. We got him for 1 year $2.8M.

He was a top-10 OG in the ZBS under Shanahan 2 years ago, and was still ranked 15th out of 64 OG's last year in a power scheme. He's 32 years old, but apparently he's still got gas in the tank.

He played RG though, so not sure if he'll play LG or if we move Asamoah over to LG. Either way, we just upgraded the OL again.

Matthews | Baker
Chester | Person
Stone | Hawley
Asamoah | Holmes
Schraeder | Polumbus

That finally looks solid to me. 5 starters who grew up in a ZBS scheme and some actual decent depth behind them. Hopefully Matthews steps it up this year and can get over that foot injury.

I'm actually surprised they cut him. Quinn must not think he's very good.

He should be cut because he is not too swift on the uptake. Do this Rambo -

1 - Dispose of the dog.
2 - Buy 2 new puppies of same breed.
3 - Say he accidentally let the dog out, dog took off and he has spent the past "hours" looking for him to no avail. We will continue looking and do so.
4 - Be embraced as a hero due to "lost dog" search efforts and new puppies' acquisition after 2 days of squeeze mourning lost dog.
5 - Squeeze kept. Job kept.
6 - Nothing to see here, keep moving.

Do that. Tiger, take notes.

No excuse to kick a 10 pound dog or any dog for that matter unless it is violently attacking you.

See that is the problem. No excuse to kick a 10 pound dog or any dog for that matter unless it is violently attacking you.

W/ my aunt's dog every time he bit at me or my cousins (we were around 10 yrs old) she never did anything. How can you correct this behavior if you do nothing? You say to only kick it when it is violently attacking you. If you discipline the dog early on, then this wouldn't happen. But my Aunt and other people w/ small dogs will just ignore it since it is so small. But them frickers still bite and seem very crazy compared to regular size dogs (i guess small dog syndrome).

Also when I say "kick" I mean it in the same way you would "pop" a child w/ your hand, except you use your foot since the dog is only 10 inches off the ground. Nothing wrong with this.


********Also when I made my first post, it was before all the news came out, as I only heard the story off the Bill Shank show, and they only had limited info. They also said it was a felony charge.

It's news to me that the Falcons drafted a player who was investigated for sexual assault of a girl who committed suicide. I remember the story about Notre Dame and thinking that it was a big stink but I didn't know about the Falcons angle.

RIP Little dog.
