I am actually glad Butler-Bird is still on the team.

Are people saying he should be kicked off the team? I must have missed those.

Agree there. I haven't seen it much here, but twitter is blowing up.

RaggaeCoug

I have softened my stance a lot over the years...

How dare a Ute fan be reasonable!

Except Van Noy effectively served a 1 year suspension

WDaddy

When, freshman year?

ToasterChive

8/23/16 11:46am

Before he even enrolled. Bronco made Van Noy wait a year because of his DUI.

If I remember correctly, KVN moved up and lived in Seattle with Jake Heaps for

He did. However, that was the requirement of a religious school...

Yes, but you brought him up as a good example of overcoming mistakes. Point is

runnincoug

Yes but consequences can vary depending on what you want...

Tokolosh

exactly. we forget athletes are just regular people.

100% agree.

Great comment. Totally agree.

Some mistakes should have consequenced. Smashing police vehicles is not a little

Hatfield robbed a guy at gun point and assaulted another while smoking weed.

Cougarrrs

8/23/16 12:03pm

That was also a bizarre case that should have consequences. Back to van noy,

runnincoug

8/23/16 12:09pm

It had significant consequences, when it was definitively proved that Hatfield

Yeah, and michael jackson never molested anyone.

Cougarrrs

You do realize that there was video footage of the perp and it was clearly not

And I understand that this is all just rivalry hyperbole so I roll my eyes at

Scratch

8/23/16 12:18pm

The video was not very clear and even if the guy in the video wasn't Hatfield,

Cougarrrs

8/23/16 12:18pm

The video and the clerk were clear that it was a tall guy, which Hatfield is not

Scratch

8/23/16 12:26pm

Good dodge. Hatfield was at least an accomplice to armed robbery.

Cougarrrs

8/23/16 12:34pm

Prove it according to Utah law.

ironman1315

8/23/16 12:36pm

He can't even prove it without the mens rea requirement.

Scratch

8/23/16 12:42pm

And again, Michael Jackson never molested anyone. If he did, then prove it.

Cougarrrs

8/23/16 12:44pm

This argument is weak. There is clear exculpatory evidence for Domo.

ironman1315

8/23/16 12:46pm

And OJ was innocent too! Your argument is a complete failure.

Cougarrrs

8/23/16 12:52pm

There was all kinds of evidence on OJ, obviously. There is exculpatory evidence

Scratch

8/23/16 12:57pm

Let's review some basic rules of argumentation.

ironman1315

8/23/16 1:04pm

I have told you why I believe he is an accomplice. Your ignoring that evidence

Cougarrrs

8/23/16 1:28pm

I have not. You haven't shown me the mental state.

ironman1315

8/23/16 1:39pm

And you're ignoring the other half now. Put them together.

Cougarrrs

8/23/16 1:45pm

And tons of evidence that Jackson molested kids.

Scratch

8/23/16 12:56pm

Really? So why didn't the state pursue charges?

Cougarrrs

8/23/16 1:06pm

For while there may be tons of evidence it may not prove the issue...

ironman1315

8/23/16 1:07pm

Oh, so there wasn't tons of evidence that he did it.

Cougarrrs

8/23/16 1:22pm

Tons of evidence is not the same thing as evidence that proves...

ironman1315

8/23/16 1:26pm

Then why isn't he? Because there's no evidence supporting that theory, at least

Scratch

8/23/16 12:42pm

Or, more likely, since it would require a someone to testify against him,

Cougarrrs

8/23/16 12:46pm

You like to play pretty loose with the accusations.

Tokolosh

8/23/16 12:49pm

Not really. It's just the next logical step.

Cougarrrs

8/23/16 12:53pm

RE: Not really. It's just the next logical step...

ironman1315

8/23/16 1:06pm

Yeah, his phone number just happened to be on the ad that led to the robbery.

Cougarrrs

8/23/16 1:10pm

Oh look another goal post move.

ironman1315

8/23/16 1:13pm

Not a goal post move at all. But way to ignore half of the data presented.

Cougarrrs

8/23/16 1:21pm

Mens rea. Show me the mental state.

ironman1315

8/23/16 1:25pm

Great, so why did domo have the stolen phones?

Cougarrrs

8/23/16 1:40pm

Because he picked them up at a party and they weren't taken in the armed robbery

ironman1315

8/23/16 1:42pm

Right, different crimes. Domo's number is on an ad where they are stealing

Cougarrrs

8/23/16 1:46pm

*eyeroll

ironman1315

8/23/16 1:48pm

So you have no real rebuttal then. Just an eyeroll. Good to know.

Cougarrrs

8/23/16 1:52pm

My response was that your facts are all a jumble.

ironman1315

8/23/16 1:55pm

Boy don't you wish this was a court of law, where people have to stick directly

Cougarrrs

8/23/16 1:59pm

Bruh, that ain't just court of law but solid argumentation skills.

ironman1315

8/23/16 2:04pm

Ok, you've now contended they're not connected. Prove it.

Cougarrrs

8/23/16 2:12pm

Another rule of argumentation, you cannot prove a negative.

ironman1315

8/23/16 2:15pm

Nope, all on you now. You need to prove that it's either impossible that

Cougarrrs

8/23/16 4:07pm

Dude, you've proven literally nothing.

ironman1315

8/23/16 4:19pm

Just as much as you've proven it seems. It's funny you think you have the upper

Cougarrrs

8/23/16 4:33pm

You made the initial assertion. You have the burden of proof.

ironman1315

8/23/16 4:43pm

Oh and scroll down a little to the proving a negative section.

Cougarrrs

8/23/16 4:35pm

It's OK, I'm sure he also believes that all of the BYU players who were involved

I'm confused, did one of them use their phone to make the fake ID?

The likelihood that the guys partying with Koroma and his illegally purchased

I'm actually a little surprised they weren't. But yes,

There is no next logical step when you are standing on a conclusion

Wow, where to even start with that... You're contending that there can be no
