    100% agree. That said, I would prefer that the Dodgers not win a World Series next year, unless it comes down to them or the Yankees.

    This an editorial by the Lowell Sun so it represents the opinion of the editor. It mentions that Boston sports radio has discussed it as well. While the Sun may not the circulation of the Globe, Boston sports radio does. This could get interesting if the story gets any traction especially if any other behavioral or judgment issues arise.

    And you know what? There are even people (those 'one guys'!) who would tarnish Kobe's legacy by pointing out that he admitted, in writing, to raping a woman in Denver.

    So I don't get it. In my view, you and other apologists should either state outright that you do not believe these reports (that's fine, but you haven't done that yet); or simply state outright that rape isn't a problem for you, and you're fine associating with such people or cheering them on. I mean, who among us hasn't invited a 17-year-old runaway to our hotel, got her drunk, then filmed our buddies having sex 'with' her once she's passed out?

    By the way, I don't give a crap about V's "image." I DO give a crap that he was involved in this.
    That's, uh...not what the story you linked says.

    As I understand it, Verdugo filmed the two drunk girls beating up the other drunk girl...obviously not good.

    But I have yet to find anything saying he was present during or in any way involved in the sexual assault. The way the media has reported this story has caused a lot of confusion, though.

    I'm not rooting for them to win World Series or anything, I only care about two teams winning. 1. Red Sox. 2. Not Yankees. Dodgers winning wouldn't bother me though. I like A lot of their players.

    Even then, you might need to drop an “allegedly” or two in there. What that story says “Person A says Verdugo filmed it, but Verdugo claims to have been passed out.”...

    Regardless of what exactly happened, I think we can all agree it was a dumb decision and situation to put himself in, and hopefully he's matured since then.

    I think you and I have different views of what constitutes (or can be excused as being) a "dumb decision"! I'm sure we both made plenty of those. I'm also pretty sure neither of us was ever in a room, drunk or passed out, where an underage kid was being beaten up then later sexually assaulted by our buddies. Another remarkable and jaw-dropping detail in this story is the way Dodger "fixers" determined that the way to handle it was to invite the girl to dinner with the players involved.

    No argument. But the rapist label might be a bit premature...
