Voice of Reason

I've been a Boston fan since Nate Archibald played there so we'll be on opposite sides of that one.

The conspiracy theory crowd is going to need to work overtime on this playoff season. New York is out. No NY; No LA; No Philly; No Chicago. Indianapolis and Minneapolis are in? What are the NBA and their refs up to?

Relying on young players at the heart of your team is a roll of the dice. Had Elly at the plate two different times late in the game with runners at 2nd and 3rd and he struck out. Steer also up in one of those situations and couldn't get the key hit needed, although he worked a walk after fouling off 3 or 4 pitches that he should have crushed. He actually did crush one but pulled it foul.

It's a bit of a joke, and a comment on how there is a conspiracy theory for everything. I believe there was a post talking about some conspiracy theory that started me down this path.

Sure. He probably didn't really have a cardiac incident either. "They" faked it all.

At intake, they do a record review don't they? Clean record, no serious injuries involved, over crowded jails, no risk of not showing up for court ... I think any of us get out on OR or bond. And I will throw this back at the celebrity issue. On the other side there is the police officer involved issue. I think the only reason any of us would not get out is because it is a police officer that was involved. And the courts will protect the police - and rightfully so in almost every case.

Is that because he was a detective and just helping out due to need? Louisville police have to be on a strict body cam usage program with all they have gone through over the past couple years.

I don't buy that either. We may not have been out of jail in 1 hour, but none of us would have spent a night in jail.

It is a gray world, not a black and white one. There are always nuances to the story.

I have at least 10 questions to ask to get more facts about how this happened. I am not jumping straight to the police side and co-signing. Almost the opposite. It will take a lot more to convince me Scheffler is guilty of these charges.

Right now, this feels to me like the first release of the NCAA college football playoff rankings. We know we only have maybe half the facts we need.

I have heard there is a "P" on the front windshield and signage on the car that says official vehicle.

Unbelievable. What was Q doing and what was Maria doing? If you think you are getting votes, and every member of the jury was blindsided, why in the world don't you play your idol? Maria better find an idol and win every challenge. Same for Charlie. Otherwise, it is Liz, Kenzie and Ben in the final 3.

Which officer should he comply with? The one that says go or the one that says stop?

Sketchy to prove IMO. Another fact. Scheffler's car was clearly marked as a player's car. The officer should have known and recognized that. He should have known this wasn't some random person trying to avoid traffic.
