Jolly

[Fritz]

Swede, you clearly do not watch enough television.

The judge will listen, quietly and carefully, to each side. He will ask some intelligent, perceptive questions, pore over heavy legal texts, and while he's reading his young daughter a bed time story, he'll become distracted and have some amazing insight while his daughter is coughing and his wife is telling him to get the girl some cough medicine.

Television will tell you all you need to know, Swede.

Misread on my part.

Though, hardly trying to pick a fight.

Forget to take your metamucil?

This is what I love about Ty:

"Yeah, maybe I'm wrong, but FU for pointing it out. Besides, I slept with your mother. And everything else you say is crap."

Isn't this kind of case where a judge--in the middle of a day when he's heard pre-trial motions on murders, assaults, rapes, and drug busts involving tens of thousands of dollars worth of crack--calls the prosecutor forward and says, "ARE...YOU...KIDDING...ME!? A bottle of cough syrup? Plea this out or drop it!"

Should be. If this were anything other than a high profile athlete case, the plea would have been done long ago. The problem is that Jolly can't plea without getting a suspension, so he won't plea. The DA is forced to at least go some distance on the case so that it doesn't appear that the athlete gets special treatment.

Jolly doesn't think he'll have a problem because "I've got God on my side"http://www.greenbaypressgazette.com/...g-charges.html. Unfortunately all previouse attempts to get god to testify in court have failed, so Jolly may be out of luck on that front.

I don't know that it is that easy of an explanation. Houston has had quite a problem with this very substance and has been cracking down for quite sometime. I think it is high profile because of local interest more than NFL player interest.

Might I ask if anybody knows who was driving? My understanding is that possession always attaches to the driver by presumption, but I might be wrong.

Jolly needs to take his medicine.

Too bad it didn't happen in Minnesota. Drug possession isn't illegal there.

Drug use isn't illegal there.

Drug use? I'm not sure that's even a crime anymore. There have been a lot of changes.

I'll take a bloody mary, a steak sandwich......and a steak sandwich.

In the court ruling US vs. Fishbine, a man subjected to potential incineration while wearing another man's suit is entitled to $10,000 worth of airline tickets. It's an obscure ruling, but a very important one to me.

I'll have a glass of hot fat. Oh and bring me the head of Alfredo Garcia.

You're not going to sing for us are you, Sammy?

No. I don't have a problem with patler pointing it out..just the accusation that i was trying to pick a fight.

And, considering patler's age, i'm not sure his mom could survive a night with Ty.

He was trying when the cops pulled him over!

So your comments about metamucil and his mother are not attempts to pick a fight...?

Even with a plea, if it his first run in with the Law, he might get a pass and just a list of things to agree to avoid. What I don't remember is if being in the NFL drug program counts against you. I don't remember Jolly having previous issues along this line, but if he was in Stage 1, we wouldn't have had a press release.

Scott said he was found not guilty...and maybe it was his lack of clarification that confused me, but making a statement like that implies that no other verdicts were found or not found.

The way i read it was you can be found not guilty..and still be brought back to trial. That is factually incorrect unless you state that a charge against you wasn't found not guilty.

Scott said that? Where? I think he said just the opposite
To review:

Double jeopardy?

I think you have to be go to trail twice for it to be double jeopardy.

You can go to trial twice like the NBA dude who shot that driver guy. You can't be found not guilty and then be re-tried. The Skinbasket should be able to explain this.

No. Patler said i was trying to pick a fight. My comment about the metamucil was more along lines that he was acting feisty..maybe cause he wasn't regular.....in that his assesment was way off about picking a fight. Look when i wrote it..after i said i misread scott.

Mother: Noodle brought up the mother, not Ty. I merely tried being humorous. Ty thought about saying Ty couldnt' survive a night with patler's mom.

And look who has to chime in. As if your post adds anything.

What is remarkable is that patler, quite capable of expressing himself, both here and in PM..said virtually nothing.

But, you feel the need to assist him. What a jagoff you are.
