Merged:"It's our intent to help, not to punish..." / "alcohol triggered"???

I want you to go look at all the active threads right now......... really look at it......Practically all Randy-related threads right? It's unnecessary and floods with board with the same recycled material over and over again. If you open the threads up you see the people saying the same things as in other threads. Every spectrum that revolves around this incident could easily be condensed into one thread. I think people are more concerned with "being the first to report" or want a soap box to stand on than really carry on a good thread.

Well, not me. And a few others that I know of. (Nublar, Byroan, etc...and you.)
We all have good posts to bring rather than just blathering. I think we deserve to post what we want.

I stand by my point. Not trying to take away anything from what you said, it's just in my own humble opinion the site has more appeal when it's not being overrun by "similar" threads.
A third year player who has been arrested twice for beating his wife isn't a "good human". There's no way to sugarcoat it. Nobody should need CLASSES teaching you to stop beating women a fraction of your size.
Very dis-heartening to hear this... McMike was one of the few guys who worked his rear off last season and played with the tenacity Saban is trying to obtain. Should we start a pool on when Chris Chambers gets a DUI?

I've been cruising the McMichael posts since this incident and I feel compelled to speak...because I think a lot of assumptions and a lot of bs is being floated around concerning him and this incident. Speaking as anonymously as possible, I want to shed light as best as I can, because I am personally confused as well. He's a great friend of mine, and I can confidently say I know him pretty well. It's true he IS a good person, which is why I find it so hard to separate his "problem" from who I know him to be. But, as a woman, I find it sickening and disturbing that this is the second time that he's been in this situation.
It may be that he has a problem with his behavior when he drinks, but I really don't think that's true. He drinks a LOT and parties a lot. But the only time he has issues is when he's around his wife. His marriage/his wife is the problem. He needs to get counseling concerning his marriage, not concerning his drinking. He's just as pleasant to be around drunk as he is to be around sober.
Randy is one of the most sweetest men I know. He's very animated on the field obviously, but off of it he is pretty laid back and soft-spoken. Whether he has a disrespect for all women is debatable, but he definitely has a problem with his wife. No one deserves to be hit, but they both seem to have a volatile and explosive relationship. From the outside looking in, they probably need to divorce, but I'm sure she's waiting for his new contract (which may be a moot point with his bad press and especially if he doesn't produce this year). She's already covering for him to the police. He's prob been rough with her for a while now.
That's my friend and all, but I'd love to see him get the help he needs. Or to break away from her, who seems to be the root of the problem for whatever reason.

Breathing is the hardest thing to do.
hasnt his wife said it was an accident? i thought i heard that
what do you expect her to say? Her husband is beating her ***...publicly, privately, and from what I gather, for a while..it is most likely embarrassing to her...and she's prob just trying to hang in there until he signs a new contract. by then she has enough evidence to get more than half along with a decent child support. :mrt:
women abused usually defend those who hurt them...:shakeno: :shakeno:
who knows? maybe she still loves him!

I hate the alcohol excuse. To me, that's like laying total blame on the bullet for a murder.

no, she would cover it up because Randy is her meal ticket, and her key to a more luxorious lifestly
