Gaffney, Not Bunkley Busted On Weapons Charge

[PhillyGirl]

the press have people in the police dept that would have leaked this, no?

[MURP]

"sign for six"
"no"
"we know about the gun"
"..."

[mussa]

yea but hopefully they are eagles fans

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Just sign the bastich.  I already don't care about the alleged incident.

[Diomedes]

you gotta realize he is pretty much a kid and is going to make some dumb mistakes.

I've been waiting for someone to drop this idiotic line.  No, you don't gotta realize that kids are prone to driving around with handguns on their dashboard.  You don't get a pass for this.  I wouldn't if I were the one caught with a gun, and neither would you.  This has nothing to do with being a dumb kid and everything to do with being a very dumb human.  And that's putting it charitably.

If it's true, farg him.

may i ask why you care more about a guy with a gun in his car than you do about five kids getting drowned by their mother

[Susquehanna Birder]

Welcome to the paradox that is Dio.

[rjs246]

Hunt Bunkley for sport.

[Geowhizzer]

I agree with Mussa to this extent:

Can we at least wait until there is official confirmation of Bunkley being arrested before we jump off the Walt Whitman en masse?

not in this thread.

He's not a kid.  I've been 21, and I never did that.  A kid mistake is dating the wrong girl, getting loaded and acting like an ass...not carrying a loaded gun in plain sight.  That there is a criminal mistake, not a kid mistake.

That said, I'm not going to bury him for it.  It mostly means he's stupid and cares too much about looking cool. He needs to apologize, sign his damn contract and make people forget about this with his heretofore incident-free stellar football playing.

Racist!

A player has a gun on him, hes automatically labeled as a thug and hardguy? I can bet that half these guys carry guns with the threat of being carjacked, jumped, or held at gunpoint--just not stupid enough to put it on the f-in dashboard going over a bridge. They have alot of money and its the true jealous thugs that will do anything to get it, so they dfend themselves like a growing up poor, ghetto black kid does--with a gun. You can take a ghetto boy out of the ghetto and stick him in the NFL, but you cant take the true ghetto out of him.

the more "shots fired" heard around the NFL, the increase in players holding a piece, no matter what their taught in the NFL classroom

pretty much my take...there's only one source that has said anything about this that isnt talk radio...so we'll see.

i don't have my hopes to high for it though. ya never know since he was from FSU, he very well could have been going after mcdougle to finish the job.

[ice grillin you]

kid probably grew up in a swamp in florida somewhere...population three

so imagine hes coming over the ben frank looking illatropolis dead in the eye first the first time...then it hits him "what the farging farg am i doing"....and proceeds to go under the drivers seat for his cannon
