Myles Garrett needs to be permanently suspended (1 Viewer)

Someone needs to take Myles Garrett’s shovel from him, or he might even dig a deeper hole for himself the next time he speaks.

 
NFL should just suspend this dope all of next season to. And Rudolph should sue him for defamation. Now Rudolph will be stuck with that and we all know there are some out there saying, "yeah that Rudolph is a racist." Damn, I saw in one of these threads someone actually said they would be surprised if he wasn't a racist. .. And that was before this came out. But hey, if something doesn't go your way,  cry racism. That is now how pathetic society is today.

So apparently the revelation of the racial slur was done at the hearing by Myles in private and then “leaked” by the NFL. Myles was assured it was a private meeting and the NFL is the one who allowed this to get out. Am I understanding this correctly????

Based on the statement provided by Garrett yes you are understanding it correctly

Is it really that unbelievable? Maybe what...2 Steelers OL and a ref with the possibility to hear it?
 

Eventually apologizes? Lol

 
It makes no sense that Garrett would want to keep this private if it really happened,  no sense at all.  Like I said earlier, someone needs to take that shovel away from him, the hole is just getting deeper and deeper.

 
I think he made it up.

I also think the NFL leaked this. They found no evidence, they can’t not leak that because after the finding is released, if Myles leaks it later this week with “I told them he called me a _____ and they didn’t believe me” then the NFL is screwed on public perception. Leak it first and then say no evidence and they’re cool.

Yeah, I'm sure 2 African American steeler lineman AND  ref just blew it off if he said something.  Do you think before you type. Are you Garrett's agent?

 
Of course he made it up. It was his last chance on an appeal, so he had to pull out all the stops.

DeCastro looks Caucasian to me. 

I didn’t say they heard it and blew it off.

Edit: it’s possible I wasn’t clear, so I’m going to edit this post to make sure it’s clear. You said “which NOONE heard”. To me, the way you wrote that sentence says if it was said someone would have heard. All I’m saying is, it cannot be crazy to think no one heard it when all we’re talking about is (to the best of my knowledge) 3 potential people that just finished up a play. On top of that, we don’t even know when Myles claims it was said. While Mason was twisting Myles head - likely nobody. When Mason was charging on his feet - more than likely someone would have heard it. If I’m still nuts, so be it.

Rudolph's attorney nails it:

According to ESPN, in his appeal, Myles Garrett falsely asserted that Mason Rudolph uttered a racial slur toward him, prior to swinging a helmet at Mason's uncovered head, in a desperate attempt to mitigate his suspension. This is a lie. This false allegation was never asserted by Garrett in the aftermath of the game, never suggested prior to the hearing, and conspicuously absent in the apology published by the Browns and adopted by Garrett.

"The malicious use of this wild and unfounded allegation is an assault on Mason's integrity which is far worse than the physical assault witnessed on Thursday. This is reckless and shameful. We will have no further comment.

Rudolph should proceed with criminal charges now, and the NFL should tack on more time for false allegations

Countdown to when Garrett openly considers litigation against the NFL for leaking his very own lies.

What a dope

Talk about a misleading headline. Yahoo currently has a picture of Garrett on their home page with the tag "Garrett is assured Mason Rudolph made racial slur", with the linked article detailing how Garrett was assured his accusation of the slur being said wouldn't be made public.

Way to stir the pot, Yahoo.

So just to get the timeline right here - the NFL came out really quickly stating that they see no evidence of anything being said.  Did they just assume that the race card was going to be pulled ahead of time and go over all the tape and audio they could have, and possibly conduct interviews with the individuals in close proximity to the situation (the ref, teammates), or did they do this all yesterday after the accusation was made?

With James Thrash being the NFL Appeals Officer and Derrick Brooks involved also in the process, no reason at all for anyone to think the allegations weren’t investigate thoroughly.

Ok, but when?  The appeal was yesterday midday right?  By the end of the day, and really not even that late in the day, news came out that the NFL found no evidence to support the allegation.  So, either their full investigation was only a few hours, or they knew the race card was going to be played ahead of time.

Like I said with James Thrash and Derrick Brooks being the one’s making the decision on Garrett’s appeal,  there is no reason at all to have doubts if this was investigated.  Not sure why you are having doubts.  The NFL has nothing to gain by not investigating the racial allegations.   The NFL could have said the suspension stands and we will investigate the racial slur.  The racial slur should no way minimize Garrett’s suspension at all.  If Rudolph did say it, then he should get a lengthy suspension also.   Everything points to Garrett making this up.  The NFLPA is heavily involved in the appeal hearing, I would think they would come out with a statement if they felt the NFL didn’t do an investigation, don’t you?

The public was made aware of the appeal yesterday.  The NFL knew of the racial slur accusation before then.

Do you not think they asked everyone involved what was said during the first 2 minutes of every interview?

How long would it take to queue up the audio from the play if, indeed, Q.B.'s are always mike'd up by the league and so to two offensive linemen?

 
This is scurrilous.  Forever there will be some who say it is at least an open issue with Rudolph, the accusation having been made.  He will never fully shake this though there is no proof, just the accusation of a manchild trying to mitigate his responsibility for instigating the incident with a hit that was uncalled for by the game situation, the clock winding down and no way for the Steelers to mount a come back.  

Disappointing to me as I desperately need Garret in a League which is important to me, but my partisanship does not trump my common sense.

 
You would think with all the technology available, someone could filter out everything down to Rudolphs voice.  Does this only exist on crime shows?  Why isn't it public?

Wouldn't it be more than that?  Interview players on the field, as well as that one ref.  Go back over footage from every camera filming.  Just seemed to me that the word that an investigation was done and turned up nothing came very quickly after word of the accusation had come out.  I'm just asking what the timeline of these events are.  If the accusation was actually made days ago and it was just made public yesterday, that's one thing, but if Garrett just made the accusation yesterday at the hearing, just seems awfully fast for an investigation to have been done. 

 
There is no ****ing way Rudolph said that to Garrett, sending him into El Cabong mode, and he sat on it for a week... didn't utter a word of it to a teammate, to the press, to anyone?

He thought he was in a cone of silence in NY and tried to lie his way into a better light. Lie got leaked. Done.

You need more than Garret GB.  ;)

 
I would think a lot of people, including his own teammates, are going to be pissed that Garrett played the race card when it wasn't warranted.

Not long of course.  But, didn't the NFL say there is not any audio?  

Many people just don't believe that.  There was no Ray Rice video, right?  There are pics all over Twitter of the mics from the play before and I think a shot of one in the end zone during the play.  They've been capturing sounds for a long time, the equipment today has to be the best ever.  Players (including centers, guards, and QBs) are supposedly mic'd on a weekly basis.  How did they fail?

 
He totally made that up.  And even if rudolph did say something, does that make it ok to try to kill him with his own helmet?  Words don't kill people

Most things you see on crime shows only exist on crime shows and are entirely fictional. 

 
The NFL ought to also suspend Jason Garrett, put a hit out on Leaf Garret, and forbid its players from watching old Hawaii 5-0 episodes with Steve McGarrett.  They need to take a clear and comprehensive stand against this "Garrett" scourge.

I'd forget arguing this with either Bracie Smathers or Bobact10. Neither really acquits themselves well when it comes to Cleveland and dirty play/over the line stuff.

It seems to me that it's within the realm of possibility that Rudolph could have uttered the racial slur only loud enough for Garrett to hear it.

Looking at the video it doesn’t seem likely to me that Rudolph was whispering in the ear hole of Garrett’s helmet.

Prior to appeal they would have already done plenty of investigating. Likely had already listened to all sound they had during incident. The only expansion would have been into the plays right before it.

He could have thought it and in a moment of stress and physical exhaustion Garret could have temporarily experienced mental telepathy and have picked up on it.  Lots of possibilities.
