Yeah, he's dumb, immature, and all that other stuff, but...for him it doesn't have the same consequence as it would for you. You can say that stuff about him taking it more seriously, but, why should he? If he's happy with how his life is turning out then who are we to apply our levels of "appropriateness" to anything?

He's an entertainer who got a speeding ticket, nothing more. One might say that his being arrested on such a frivolous charge and perp walked downtown happened only because he's in that class, most of us would've just been told to go get it fixed and let go.

The NFL isn't exactly the shining light of morality at the end of the day neither. It still doesn't take that much effort to be a responsible human being and to understand that you're not the [BLEEP] center of the universe. And it's pathetic that a ton of you on here in this thread are just skating over this. He's a dumb [BLEEP]. The fact that he is more valuable is exactly why he should be more responsible because his teammates are depending on him to carry this offense. "Triggered". Another cute phrase. LOL. No sir. Not triggered at all. Just bored out of my mind working in this freezing [BLEEP] ice box at work. Slow day. Had nothing else better to do on a Saturday morning stuck here. At the end of the day. My point is that it's okay for people to feel ticked off about this moron doing moronic things. He seems to have a track record now of it. And it's okay for people (I guess) to keep discounting that fact and make it all about him, etc. Some of us expect better out of people. No matter how high or low on the totem pole. No matter how low or high on the value chart. But hey, you do you. ![]() ![]() "What do I know of cultured ways, the gilt, the craft and the lie?

No one cares about the actual infraction, we should care that he failed yet another idiot test though.

This guy definitely has a lot to prove still. Make or break year.
No pain, no gain.
Has anyone found anything on when the NFLPA and arbitrator will rule on Fournette's grievance appeal on the Jags nullifying his guarantees?
I can't find anything online anywhere, and that is the biggest issue that will decide how the Jaguars handle all his situations and whether he stays on the team or not.
It was a traffic infraction that he forgot to pay and the police made a big deal. Let's not get carried away here. What are our other choices at RB if Jags let Fournette go, the set of castaways Jaguars managed to sign this offseason? I am hoping he has a bounce-back season. That is the least we can hope for, considering the cost of acquiring him.
