I am really confused by the uproar.
The team and probably the league has already had a talk with him. He wont even face scrutiny from the league which goes to show just how minor this is.
This is the downfall of social media and the internet. People panicking over the smallest things unnecessary.
If this was some scrub no name PS player it wouldnt have even garner a blurb.
Personally, I was disappointed that no clothing came off....
Anyone who sees nothing wrong is an idiot. The guy just waved his hands like "Go". He stood and watched as they hit each other. You're in the NFL and supposed to set a positive example. You don't just stand there and let two women beat each other if you're 6 foot 3 and nearly 300 pounds.

(thank God I don't have that issue in my life..... yet)
I think this is the most likely story, but we'll never know. I get that baby momma/girlfriend would be pretty upset if this were the case, but this makes him letting the two of them in the same vicinity even worse. How are you going to let baby momma and your new hook up come face to face?! (allegedly...)
Quote:I get what you're saying, but at the end of the day these were two adults who wanted to fight one another and neither of which were him. The NFL may tell he should pick better (girl)friends, but I don't really think he crossed any sort of line. Would I prefer that he was actively trying to diffuse the situation? Absolutely, and if one of them didn't want to participate, I'd have a completely different opinion on the matter. However, if two people are dead set on fighting one another, it isn't really the worst idea to not involve yourself in the actual fight.
I agree. This is more or less what I've been saying.^
We also don't know how irrational the "baby-momma" was behaving. It seems she instigated the confrontation and it's possible she made it very difficult to be ignored.
I'm sure more info will come to light that paints a clearer picture.

There's no audio. Like someone said earlier, for all we know he could have tried to be the peacemaker, but they were so dead set on going at it that he just said "ok, if that's what y'all want to do."

Are you really naive enough to believe this BigJohn? At this point we may as well believe Jameis when he said he forgot to buy the crab legs too.

This plus there was no charges filed.
Some people here are really over paranoid.

What the hell do you need audio for to see a 6 foot 3 man just stand there while 2 women fight? You don't let them fight even if that's what they "want" to do? Are you people here that stupid?

Ahhh, the foibles of youth.
Unless his child's mother was stalking them, he was slipping a bit there. Of course I remember being a few years older than him the first time I made the mistake of letting a crazy woman know too much about my comings and goings. This may be a learning moment for Fowler.

What can you honestly tell from that short video that has no audio? Can you tell he encouraged them to fight? No. Without audio, you can't tell much of anything.
It's no surprise this "incident" has gotten your panties in a bunch. You were crying much of the same way when Jameis moved an official out of the way so he could get under center.

Yeah, he should have jumped in the middle of a cat fight, risked getting hurt, or even risked losing his cool and doing something that would have had him charged and arrested.
I think the gap between the "description" of the video and what we can actually see are... creative at best.
Doesn't look like the best use of judgement but I'll abstain from condemning the man before more info comes out.
I think a lot of people are connecting the dots that they would like to see connected on this.

He did everything about as humanly right as possible.

If he was going to lose his cool against a woman he has even more serious problems. And if you're telling me a big d-lineman should be afraid of getting hurt from 2 women slapping each other he doesn't need to be in the NFL.

It's getting there. I mean, we've already gotten Jameis Winston's name entangled in this, so things should start escalating here pretty soon.

Jesus, you sensationalize like FBT. Crying? Talking about the truth...yes. Because I see things the way they happen and you want to twist and turn things to your liking.
Was he encouraging it? Maybe not, but he obviously allowed it to happen. The way he was standing before it happened and then moved his arm in a motion basically saying go at it then....and then she attacked. If you can't see that then there is no point in even discussing it. It's there for you to see, plain as day.

I was going to bring up Tebow soon, bare with me.

They're adults. If they wanna fight, let em fight. They weren't hurting any innocent bystanders, so no need to jump in and stop them. Just let them settle their dispute the ole fashioned way.
