TERRENCE KIEL SS SD (1 Viewer)

[Christo]

Terrence Kiel is looking to make a healthy return in 2006 after an ankle injury cut his season short in 2005. Despite being sidelined for four games late in the season, Terrence still finished the season as the team’s fourth-leading tackler with 59 stops.

When he’s not improving his game, Terrence enjoys spending time with his son, Terrence II, and the rest of his family in the Houston, Texas suburb of Lufkin where he grew up. He likes to go fishing and hunting and watch movies with his family.

Terrence has started to prepare for life after football by involving himself in several different business ventures. He owns an urban clothing store in Lufkin and has dabbled in real estate with a friend that he went to school with at Texas A&M.

You can take the thug out of the street but you can't take the street out of a thug. If found guilty throw the book at this waste of air.

Ahhh, smell the self self-righteous indignation. Do you hold yourself and your friends to same standard that you hold athlets to?

Hey GPN, I was definitely throwing a dig at how they handled Foley...who really to me was not supported by the organization. They rushed to judge his situation and we are finding out that what happened to Foley probably was not all his fault but more of a rookie cop.

I think you've got some bad information. The Chargers never commented on what how they'd handle Foley's contract situation. Mort reported that they wouldn't have to pay him, and some people speculated based on Mort's report that the Chargers wouldn't pay him. But the Chargers never said that.From what I've heard, the Chargers are working with Foley's lawyer on this, and there may be good reasons why even Foley would not want the Chargers to pay him until after his potential claim against the city is resolved.

Now that $800,000 they kept from Foley will now be paid by a Police Dept insurance company that will shell out probably 10-20 times what he was docked by the Chargers.

As well it should be. The Chargers didn't shoot Foley. Mansker did. So if the shooting was inappropriate, Mansker (or his employer, or his employer's insurance carrer) should pay. Not the Chargers.

You bet your ### pal if your a dirt bag your a dirt bag. Why don't you tell me how he's had a rough life and his economic and social situation is an excuse for being a drug dealer.

Quite a few until the last few lean years when Stoops and Brown recruited all of the prime-time talent in Texas and left Slocum with a bare cupboard.

A sad day for Texas Aggie athletics. Kiel was part of the last crop of RC Slocum recruits.

Didn't A&M actually win some games when Slocum was the HC?

Actions speak louder than words.

And I wrote that post tongue and cheek.

Here's the rest of what Mortensen said on Scott & BR's show:

Feds had intercepted a package of prescription-level codeine (a painkiller) that was being sent to Texas - again, Kiel reportedly had a prescription for it. However, it must have been in such a quantity that it raised DEA agents' suspicions.

Kiel was cooperative at Chargers Park - they didn't have an arrest warrant and were there to question him. BTW They couldn't search his locker without a search warrant because that is Chargers property.

The agents reportedly didn't find any substances in his car, but they did find another package at his home, so Kiel was arrested.

Mort said that the big "craze" among 17-22 year old kids in Texas is to mix high-strength codeine with soda and several other "ingredients" to create a cocktail that gives opiate-like effects.

Apparently, the DEA feels that Kiel was using his prescribed codeine for such a use to people back in Texas.

There is also a doctor in a heap of trouble since the amount he was prescribing apparently far exceeded the amount for personal use.

That's all for now. Breathe a sigh of relief regarding "steroid/HGH" worries and other Chargers being involved.

Anybody? Who replaces Kiel if he gets sent up to the big house this year?

I'd expect McCree to move to SS and Jue to start at FS.

Update: Jue just had knee surgery and is listed as OUT for this week. So if Kiel can't play for some reason, it looks like Hart would start.

You can take the thug out of the street but you can't take the street out of a thug. If found guilty throw the book at this waste of air.

Have the Chargers said that they will not pay him for the rest of the season? Have they rushed to dock his gamechecks yet?

If he is incarcerated and unable to perform the rest of the year I am certain he won't be paid. You get paid on a weekly basis, so if you cant show up, you dont get your gamecheck. Not really docking pay.

Hey GPN, I was definitely throwing a dig at how they handled Foley...who really to me was not supported by the organization. They rushed to judge his situation and we are finding out that what happened to Foley probably was not all his fault but more of a rookie cop.Now that $800,000 they kept from Foley will now be paid by a Police Dept insurance company that will shell out probably 10-20 times what he was docked by the Chargers. Insurance premiums go up for that Police Dept and of course that means the budget must increas...that money ahs to come form somehwere so they will either raise taxes or cut money from other city programs. So see in the end the wealthy Chargers are costing you and I the taxpayers more money by withholding Foley's paycheck for the year...which at under $1 million was a bargain.



Well, something like that.

Am I the only one who hopes he's still depressed?

Yep, Foley is a model citizen.

The controlled substance was apparently codeine, which Kiel has a prescription for. The issue is that he may have been sending the codeine to Texas where it is commonly mixed with alcohol or other substances and used as a party drug. I don't know what quantities were involved.

Well, then...he's screwed.

Another update: Hart will start; Kiel will not practice or make the trip to Baltimore.

Marty said he expects him back next week so I guess it's just the Ravens game for the time being. Perhaps to avoid distractions.

As a McCree owner hurting at the DB position, let me be the first to say... damn.But thanks for the update, MT!

Maybe they just didn't want him getting depressed listening to Jamal talk about how fun it is to deal with the Feds on drug charges.
