Xameil Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Jeeze...this is so simple...he's guilty cut him, if it turns out he's falsely accused, keep him on the roster, get him help, and suspend him 2 games to teach him to stay away from certain people. In no way does claiming him support DV. What it does show is that everyone is innocent until proven guilty. Hell I dont even think this guy is on the Redskins payroll at this time. Redskins have claimed rights to him...nothing else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peregrine Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 I guess Doug and "Rueben" are on a first name basis already, how cute. So basically "Despite that every other NFL team passed on him, we got to thinking we have Alabama players, and HE played at Alabama, so we could spin it as that means he didnt hit anyone! Oh, and Bruce Allen really is desperate to save his job, and believes the work he has done bringing in players is so poor we need help" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like being lied to, and this apparently isn't a great statement to make when there were players who appear to not have been talked to...

Veretax Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 I dislike domestic violence so strongly..... THe situation with this Ex, Is not clear to me from media reports yet what is going. The investigation is pending. If he's on the Commissioner exempt list, fine, I don't know how you could let a guy play or leave his current zipcode while under investigation anyways. What confuses me is Doug going out and apologizing for something today. I must have missed a bit of news, but we continue to look like a front office with ZERO PR skill. Whether decision is Golden or wasted breath will tell in time, but its frustrating to see our franchise in these situations seemingly all the time.

Jonathan Allen and Foster are very close. Conversations will have taken place. We don't find everything out. And our FO communications suck. But i I would wager anything that Jonathan Allen has had some form of input, on a purely informative basis, on Foster being acquired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must have missed a bit of news, Yeah, me too. I just watched Jay's presser, Doug came out first and made a big apology for "something that he had said". DW has always seemed like a top bloke and this has surprised me. Anyone know what he said? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinzplay Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 I think we all know that Doug is not making any decision of consequence whatsoever in Ashburn, and we know why George Allen's son brought him in. This ridiculous charade has gone on long enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyst Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 1. If these two weren’t dating or married at the time why is it considered “domestic” violence? I always thought that was described for people in a relationship no? 2. Do we know what happened yet? Did he beat her? Is she bruised, injured, etc? Could it be something as simple as grabbing her by the arms and moving her? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KillBill26 Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Doug's "small potatoes" comment is much worse than the Redskins claiming foster. To claim foster and say we took a flyer on him until we got all the facts and the situation plays itself out is one thing. Calling a potential dv situation "small potatoes" is pouring gasoline on a spark. Probably about the worst response you could possibly have.

You can disagree with it all you want, it was confirmed Allen did not speak to them before the signing. a couple others appeared to have, but those two were on record not speaking to Allen.

Boss_Hogg Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Doug Williams was one of my favorite players of yesteryear. It sickens me what the moron trust has done to him. Doug deserves better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
