9inarow Posted April 18, 2002 Share Posted April 18, 2002 This is ridiculous. The alleged victim is a capper looking to score a big hit. First of all, the state didn't find enough evidence to even detain Underwood, let alone charge him with a crime. The lady is filing a civil suit and looking to hit the lotto. Jerry Jones was names solely because he has deep pockets. The only reason this is making headlines is because it's a Cowboy in the news. NFL players are sued every other week. No one else makes the news. So let's stop this silliness. E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But still, it's significant when an owner of an NFL franchise is named in a sexual assault lawsuit. And I'll tell you THIS-- you never hear about Danny Snyder sexually assaulting anyone. But that's probably just because he's too short to reach a girl's breasts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
