Cox Signed Officially....Cut the next day

Hide your daughters.

Whatever, let's go.....

What a bunch of BS though. Here we are trying to win it all and these ass clowns can't stay off the shit long enough to help with that. Let down the organization, teammates, coaches, fans, everyone. That is just crap in my book! I see people on here saying "it's only weed...innocent until proven guilty...yadda yadda". It's crap. These guys know the deal (including when they'll be tested, unless they've already failed one and then they really shouldn't take a chance) but they want it all. They want to play a game, get big money, a great life, adulation and they want to be able to get high...just like the common man. That's all well and good and I personally don't care what they smoke or take (as long as it hurts nobody else). It's just that they have to play by the set of rules that they are under while they are afforded the opportunities that they have. It doesn't matter what anyone thinks of the rules. They are what they are until they're changed. That won't be happening anytime soon. The behavior is selfish and I hate it. If guys keep making these selfish decisions then perhaps they'll have the freedom of the common man sooner than they'd like....besides, a good percentage of people with jobs have to operate under some sort of testing (or threat of same). It just sucks. It may be time to make an example of some of these clowns. Sadly though, it probably wouldn't work. They've been been afforded a different set of rules for most of their lives. I can't believe Thurmond was doing interviews in his "Tony Montana inspired" suit with a big smile on his face knowing damn well what was coming. Browner... well he's had his chances.

This all may turn out fine but we shouldn't even have to be worried about this kind of crap right now. We should be enjoying an historic season and looking forward to a huge game against the Saints. I've only been waiting the whole existence of the Hawks to win it all. I don't want anything mucking it up! 2005 had a DB decide to go out to drink one night, get clocked with a street sign and be out for the year. His backup filled in nicely till he got hurt...in the Super Bowl. It may be that we have the depth or ability to overcome this situation. I think we will. It stinks that we have to find out though. We've had to overcome enough this year already. Oh well, next man up, 1-0 every week, champioship opportunity, Go Hawks!!

I was looking on nfl.com, Checking info on Cox and they have it written that WT3 plays Monday Night????? I wish somebody would put this issue to rest. It is kind of a mute point. But will he play or won't he play????

He's not playing. Seahawks officially announced that his suspension begins immediately and that he will be eligible to return for the last game of the season.

It's "moot point", not mute. And from everything I've read, he's not playing. He'll rejoin the team after the Arizona game.

Roland would approve of this post.

Win at all costs. Even if it means paying rapists money to play football.

 

[Guardian]

We signed Perry Cox!? Sweet! Now we can finally run that hospital with some efficiency!

Jokes aside, I don't know what to make of this. I remember a few years ago I had him on my Madden team because he was a big hitter, but he's also no better (personality-wise) than Rapelisberger.

The man's an idiot who raped a girl, lied about it, and is a DNA match to the girl's child.

I hope some of the Saints WRs have their way with him on the field and he is cut on Tuesday

Don't care - sticking to my high horses

I think yesterday taught us to NEVER go to NFL.com for accurate info.

Silver's article had Browner's suspension for PEDS, it being 8 games, and us having already signed Winfield. That's 0 for 3 on accuracy

No he wouldn't. For Roland to approve, it would have to say "I guess you could not make a point if you're mute"

 

[Fuzzman55]

Dislike this move more than the suspensions. I don't need someone blameless, but Cox?

Can he play the slot? We have plenty better players on the outside.

Yep. That's what we call an absolute failure for any sports website, not to mention the official source of the NFL.

much sorry. very had to…..but i agree that this is more of a short term depth move

 

[Hawkfan77]

Hahaha, I love reading all the comments from all of you hating on this signing...

It's like you all forgot who Carroll and Schneider are and who they have brought aboard. The majority instant reaction to guys like Browner, Sherman, Clemons, heck even Lynch was bad or that these guys were useless and wouldn't help us win.

But nope, you all (whoever you are) without having any inside knowledge are going to say the FO made a mistake or that a PS guy is better, or that a retired CB who we all saw get burned in the pre-season is better...yeah I'm going to side with Carroll and Schneider on this one.

 

[EastCoastHawksFan]

seems like many of you have forgot how JS and PC pick up guys with chips on there shoulders and turn them into all-pros.

Low Risk - High Reward.

 

[MLOhawks]

I don't think this signing matters, as Max and Lane will start ahead of him, he is just depth chart filler. So who cares.

As for Cox himself, he might just be as dumb as some of you mentioned as the articles linked to do not appear to show him with a lawyer while he is being interrogated. Only a moron would talk to the police about ANYTHING at all without a lawyer. I will not even discuss a parking ticket without a lawyer. If the police are looking in your direction for any reason whatsoever, it's best to never say a word to the police without a lawyer present, ever.
