Here's an excerpt from the police affadavit

Officers viewed recorded video footage from the establishment, which revealed that [Nixon] and [Shorter] engaged in a verbal altercation in front of the nightclub, which turned physical. [Shorter] briefly argued with [Nixon] and [Banks], then pulled a knife from his pocket, opened it and armed himself by holding the knife behind his back. [Nixon] then struck [Shorter] with his fist. [A bouncer] intervened to de-escalate the altercation and positioned himself between [Shorter], [Nixon] and [Banks]. As [the bouncer] stood between [Shorter], [Nixon] and [Banks], [Shorter] then reached over [the bouncer] and initially attacked [Nixon] with the knife. [Nixon] and [Banks] then became engaged in a physical altercation in which [Shorter] repeatedly stabbed [Nixon] and [Banks].

Well, then you'd be in jail right now. The guy that stabbed Banks and his buddy is most likely going to prison.


Actually, if they determine Banks and his buddy were drunk, antagonized the fight, attacked first and were involved in mob assault, Banks and his buddy are looking at time.


No, they aren't. At most Bank's buddy is looking at a misdemeanor assault charge for throwing a punch. Look at the police affidavit that I posted above. After the bounce had gotten between the two groups, the guy reached around the bouncer and stabbed Banks and his friend multiple times. A self-defense claim would never hold up under these facts.

Yes, Canes, I agree. I did not know any specific details to include the police report. I simply stated "if" what I had listed as an example happened, the two would be looking at charges.
Support the troops, especially our snipers.

VERY stupid and ignorant - ALL I'm pointing out is that YOU put it in the category of "THE MOST ..." this is interesting only from the point of view that this is your opinion :lol:

Personally, I've seen worse and even in this thread - but, have at it - this is why we post here - we now know what you think is "THE DUMBEST AND SINGLE WORST POST EVER" ... :lol:
Until recently, Snyder & Allen have made a lot of really bad decisions - nobody with any sense believes this franchise will get better under their guidance
Snyder's W/L record = 45% (80-96) - Snyder/Allen = 41% (59-84-1)

Broomboy and Skins and all the rest of you that feel that going to night clubs is what "normal" 24 year olds do, you are absoulutely right that we folks who don't care for clubbing should not bash Brandon or any other athlete for exercising their choice to go to night clubs where people get intoxicated and fights do break out no matter how nice the club.

Most 24 year olds do club and we shouldn't get upset when the Fred Davises and the Brandon Banks run into trouble. We shouldn't get upset when the Ken Hamlins (former Seashawk) nearly lose their lives in a nice night club in Seattle. I don't think that we are being selfish, but definitely being unrealistic. I ask why would a guy who makes so much money want to be in a place where the odds are great that at some time fights will break out and deadly weapons pulled Again, I am showing my ignorance the clubbing mentality.

I do not understand the clubbing scene and nor do I want to. If my kid, said that he was going clubbing, I would urge him to be careful and take certain precautions. I wouldn't say he was unwise, so Broomboy and Skins and the rest of you, count me as getting your points. I hate to admit I am wrong, but in this case I am.

I should recognize that these football players should not be "targeted" by us fans as not being wise when they are only doing what they like to do which is what everybody wants to do - the trhings that they like. So they make a milllion plus dollars - it is their life. Just be careful and if you are only 5'7" and weigh 147 pounds be extra careful, Brandon.


Thanks


Good grief...You know it is the off season when people are arguing over this stuff.
