Idea: Myers and Flash (Not a rumor) thoughts?

Punching your wife, shows a lack of character and courage. I hope KW avoids acquiring players with those deficiencies.

We don't know the whole story though, maybe she didn't make dinner that night.

Hard to make dinner when your husband's beating your face in front of your friends and passersby.

Can't he choke a b**** like a normal person? Or at least like Wayne Brady or Dmitri Young?

There's a bit of a difference between having trouble with substances and punching your wife in the face. A huge difference.

 

 

cant agree more. doc gooden is a saint compared to this guy. there are only about 3 more pathetic things that one can do besides assaulting ones wife.

 

I would root for the team to lose on every game that Myers pitches. That man is human filth, and there's nothing else to it from my point of view. A drug problem, drinking, self-mutilating, a generally bad attitude toward people around you -- these things can be forgiven and looked past. Even some level of violence is okay. Carl Everett headbutt an umpire? Well, the Umpire was unlikely to have been that much smaller than him, and they're both males; it's a relatively fair fight, and the shot is a relatively fair shot. It's a ridiculous thing to do, but umpires are big boys.

 

Taking a woman who is over a foot smaller than you, punching her in the face, slapping her repeatedly, and having a history of this? No thanks. I know that having a moral guide to players might lead to some good ones getting disqualified from teams, but that's management's decision to make. I'd be stunned if we picked up a former child molester or a NeoNazi, and I'd be appalled if we picked up a guy who did this to his wife.

 

Hell, even a little violence could, in theory, be looked past. Everyone has feelings of frustration, and sometimes, people lose it in the heat of the moment. But in Myers case, that's clearly not the problem. He's just a sick son of a b****.

I think Jerry likes selling out the Cell for most games....picking up Myers would have a negative impact on attendance (especially when he pitches)....don't count on any consideration of this idea.
