I have a friend, semi-cute girl with a serious lip who got into a limo with him one time here in NO; I won't get into details but I will see what she thinks about all this...

Ha, yeah. It's a story. But she has a lip, a mouth, she's got it all, but you gotta get past the lip.

Darren Sharper Charged With Rape in CaliforniaLOS ANGELES February 14, 2014 (AP)
The Los Angeles County district attorney's office says former NFL defensive back Darren Sharper has been charged with drugging and raping two women.
A district attorney's statement says Sharper will be arraigned Friday on two counts of rape by use of drugs, four counts of furnishing a controlled substance and one count of possession of a controlled substance.
The felony case involves alleged incidents in October and January. Prosecutors say Sharper met women at a West Hollywood nightclub, invited them to a party but stopped at his hotel room, where the crimes are alleged to have occurred.
Sharper was arrested Jan. 17 and released on $200,000 bail.
Prosecutors will seek to raise his bail to $10 million because the Miami, Fla., resident faces similar investigations elsewhere.

Ex-NFL S Darren Sharper has been charged with drugging and raping two women in Los Angeles.
These are felony charges. Sharper, 38, is accused of raping two women whom he had invited back to his hotel room. He reportedly gave them liquid shots containing Ambien and morphine, causing them to pass out. One woman woke up while Sharper was assaulting her, while the other woke up naked hours later. It's been requested that bail be set at $10 million because Sharper is being investigated for rapes in L.A., New Orleans, Nevada and Arizona. Sharper is currently employed by NFL Network but was suspended without pay last month.

How an Ex-NFL player can't pick up chicks legit is beyond me.

It is not about the pick up. He obviously has other issues that he is dealing with. People who do this type of thing are not doing it because they can't pick up. They have a warped sense of power etc etc.
For sure. I mean he met them at a nightclub and got them into his hotel room so in terms of picking them up in both cases it looks like he was at least on target for a successful rape free pickup.
He's got other deeper seeded perverse issues at play here than an inability to score at the club.
Only thing I can add here, and I'm not saying this after the fact, but for awhile now he struck me as first class ##### on the NFL Network. Seemed to have an almost condescending tone to anyone who disagreed with him, so heavy at times I wondered if it was actually just schtick. Now I think it was just him.

Los Angeles (CNN) -- Former NFL star Darren Sharper was charged in California on Friday in the alleged drugging and rape of two women, one in October and the other last month, the Los Angeles County district attorney's office said.
The five-time Pro Bowl player who became an NFL Network analyst is charged with two counts of rape by use of drugs, four counts of furnishing a controlled substance and one count of possession of a controlled substance, all felonies, the prosecutor's office said.
Sharper, 38, who played defensive back for the Green Bay Packers, Minnesota Vikings and New Orleans Saints during his 14-year career, appeared Friday in a Los Angeles County court, but his arraignment was postponed until Thursday, said spokesman Ricardo Santiago of the district attorney's office.
Sharper was arrested January 17 and released on $200,000 bail, but prosecutors will seek next Thursday to raise his bail to $10 million, Santiago said.
The alleged controlled substances were morphine and zolpidem, another name for the prescription sleep aid Ambien.
On October 30, Sharper met two women at a West Hollywood nightclub -- Bootsy Bellows on the Sunset Strip -- and invited them to a party, authorities allege.
Sharper, who lives in Miami Beach, Florida, allegedly told them he had to stop by his Los Angeles hotel room to pick up something, and he invited them to the room. While there, he allegedly gave each woman a drink in the form of shot, and the women then passed out, prosecutors said.
The first woman woke up naked hours later as Sharper allegedly was sexually assaulting her, prosecutors said. The other woman awakened and "interrupted his actions," according to court papers cited by prosecutors.
The two women gathered their belongings and left the hotel, authorities said.
On January 14, Sharper met two women at the same West Hollywood nightclub and also invited them to a party, prosecutors said.
A similar series of events allegedly unfolded: Sharper made a stop by his hotel room, invited the women in and allegedly offer them a shot, which caused them to pass out, prosecutors said.
When they woke up hours later on January 15, one woman believed she was sexually assaulted, and both women left the hotel and sought medical treatment, prosecutors said.
If convicted of the Los Angeles County charges, Sharper would face more than 30 years in state prison, prosecutors said.
A Los Angeles attorney representing Sharper told CNN on Friday that she was looking forward to "the true facts in this matter being revealed.
"And we are very hopeful that at the end of day that Mr. Sharper will be fully exonerated," added attorney Blair Berk.
Los Angeles County prosecutors allege in court papers that Sharper also is suspected of rape in Tempe, Arizona; Las Vegas, Nevada; and New Orleans, Louisiana.
"I believe that the defendant is involved in seven acts of rape and eleven acts of furnishing a controlled substance" in those three communities and the Los Angeles area between last September and January, Los Angeles police investigator John Macchiarella stated in papers requesting an increase in Sharper's bail to $10 million.
In Nevada, Sharper is a suspect in an ongoing rape investigation, Las Vegas police Officer Jose Hernandez told CNN.
"We do have an active and ongoing investigation and at the conclusion of this investigation, it will be submitted to the DA's office for consideration of charges," Hernandez said. He didn't elaborate.
Macchiarella said in court papers that Sharper allegedly invited to his Las Vegas hotel room two women and a man he met in a Las Vegas nightclub. The three guests "blacked out" after Sharper allegedly served them shots, Macchiarella wrote.
One woman claimed she found injuries to her face when she woke up and alleged Sharper served her another unknown beverage and "the next thing she remembered was defendant Sharper sexually assaulting her," Macchiarella stated in court papers.
The other woman awoke and believed she had been sexually assaulted, wrote Macchiarella, who reviewed the Nevada police reports.
The man awoke sitting alone at the bar inside of the hotel, without any memory of how he arrived there, Macchiarella said in the papers.
New Orleans police are also investigating Sharper after a 25-year-old woman accused him of sexual assault in September, New Orleans police spokeswoman Cherie Guggenheim confirmed to CNN.
The woman told police she consumed a large amount of alcohol last September 23 and met Sharper at one of the bars she visited, a police report said.
Sharper allegedly took the victim to his apartment and raped her, according to the police report and to Guggenheim. The woman told police she didn't consent to any sexual encounter. Sharper hasn't been charged and the investigation is ongoing, according to the report and to Guggenheim.
In Arizona, Sharper accompanied two women to a nightclub in Scottsdale and then joined them at the apartment of one of the women, according to the police report from the incident.
While in the apartment, Sharper allegedly served one woman a shot and she then blacked out, wrote Macchiarella, who reviewed police reports from Arizona.
During the time Sharper and the women were in the apartment, a female roommate who shared the apartment joined the group. Sharper also allegedly served the roommate a drink in the form of a shot, and as the roommate became disoriented and went to the bathroom, she allegedly saw Sharper on top of one of the other women with his buttocks exposed, Macchiarella said.
The two women who had accompanied Sharper to the apartment later underwent sexual assault exams, Macchiarella wrote. A crime lab test later found zolpidem in the cup that Sharper allegedly used as he served shots, Macchiarella said.
After Sharper was arrested in Los Angeles last month, the NFL Network suspended him without pay, a spokesman said.
Sharper's pro football career began as a second-round draft choice by the Green Bay Packers in 1997. After eight seasons with the Packers, including a loss to Denver in Super Bowl XXXII, he moved to the Minnesota Vikings for four years.
He signed as a free agent with the New Orleans Saints in 2009, which led to a Super Bowl ring that first season. Injuries hampered his second year with the Saints, which led to his retirement in 2011. The Los Angeles arrest report states Sharper is 6 feet 2 inches tall and weighs 210 pounds.

Sharper was one of the last headhunters in the NFL before the rules changed. I'm not saying he solely was responsible but when he was in NO he compensated for declining skills with headhunting. I went from respecting him in GB to really hating him in New Orleans or at least understanding that he was going to try and hurt someone.
I would bet money he did this while he was still in the NFL but we simply might not have heard about it until now.

I think you seriously low balled him.
This guy has all the makings of a big time serial rapist. He's being investigated in multiple states. He has a highly effective system he executes with ease and what's more so far all the reports I'm hearing so far involve him raping more than one women at a time. I'd bet everything I own he's been at this a long time and I'd bet he started with just one women at a time. Along the way he fine tuned his methods, got bored and moved onto the more challenging dual rape.
This guy is sick. Feel bad for his victims. Does not make the violation any less but at least they were spared violence and most of them probably have no memory of the actual event.

The guy is clearly sick, but let's not rewrite history. He had 15 defended passes, 9 picks, and 3 TDs that year. You could easily make the argument that it was the best year of his career. He made some big hits, but he also made a lot of playsMinistry of Pain said:

Sharper is a sick SOB. I couldn't stand listening to him as an analyst. He just seemed slimy. At least we don't have to listen to him searching for words anymore. In some cases I wanted to hold up a cue card with the word he was desperately seeking then watch him substitute it with something simple that he could comprehend. It was like he was on a stage with people well above his class and he knew it but tried desperately to fit in. I almost had to turn the channel many times because I couldn't stand watching him search for a word in mid-sentence like a high school kid with crush on his English teacher. At times it was ridiculous. I knew the word he wanted to use but it just wasn't there for him and the word he found was so out of context he ended up sounding foolish. I could take Emmitt Smith more than I could stand Sharper.
Slimy, sick piece of $hit should rot in jail. Watching him on camera, you just knew something was off about him. Controlling arrogant sicko, that got all bent out of shape when others didn't agree with him. You would think a decent looking guy with millions could get his woman easy, but it's obviously more about tricking them and controlling them that gets him off.

This type of crime I put on par with murder. While you are not taking someones life, you are altering a person's life to the point at which some of the victims wish they were dead. While I reserve my judgement until his day in court (as I stand true in my beliefs of innocent until proven guilty as I stated in the Hernandez thread) I would like to see him have access to the drug and maybe a glass with the drug residue on it or his fluid found on a complaining woman. It has been proven that some woman do cry fake rape crimes, not saying that is the case here, but thats why evidence and proof is crucial. Sharper, if you did this, you deserve to have your stuff cut off and fed to you.
EDIT: Since I know some posting in this thread have a history of believing people did crimes because others say so. Before anyone says with certainty that Sharper did this and I am not saying he didn't, remember Brian Banks. This is why you never convict anyone just because someone says so. You need proof and evidence, not circumstantial evidence.
