Addison Russell

I'm most surprised that they found condoms at his place.

As an exact quote yeah, but I wouldn't be surprised by a professional athlete blaming their spouse when they're caught cheating(or worse). Blargh.

DAMN IT! Man these allegations suck and Addison is a fan favorite...

 

Why? Why couldn't the Cubs player *allegedly* cheating on his wife be Lackey?

What a scumbag. Even, hopefully, if the DV stuff is false

Him cheating on his wife is none of my business. Him hitting his wife is indefensible.

Anyone want to buy an Addison russell shirsey?

 

He was supposed to be my favorite one of the bunch....horsefeathers

Honestly if the allegations hold any merit on the dv, mlb/cubs should arrange a trade in. Won't happen, but it should.

Yeah, however I don't think anything will come of this unless his wife comes out with it herself. A post on Instagram by her friend is bad and enough to destroy Addison in the court of public opinion (and rightfully so) but I'm guessing not enough for the police and/or MLB to investigate by itself. Could be wrong though.

Really?

 

How is that "rightfully so"?

[Sammy Sofa]

Because (since it's painfully obvious where you're going with this) the "court of PUBLIC OPINION" is not an actual court. In that realm, people fearing or thinking the worst about the seemingly maturity stunted young professional athlete who can't keep his dong in his pants (or his bat in his hands) is not unreasonable.

The great thing about the type of people who would flock to Addison's side in something like this is that inevitably, OF COURSE, they apply that same standard of presumed innocence to all people accused of something criminal everywhere across the board.

 

And again: we're not talking about an actual court here. Linking to a people who unfortunately had their lives screwed by the legal system doesn't really apply since there's zero indication this has anything to do with the police or the courts. It's simply a matter of each person's opinion as to who/what they find more believable.

Can't be too obvious, you weren't even close. What he's doing with his "dong" is none of my business.

 

It's obvious a lot people want to sit behind their keyboards and make judgments without knowing the facts... What a shame, I wont be part of it.

[Sammy Sofa]

Hahahah! I was THIS close to including a line about "how soon until this guy says something, like, 'well, we can't have an opinion without all of the facts,'" as if at some point some kind of peer-reviewed, footnote-crammed dissertation about the trials and tribulations of Addison Russell's love life is going to appear. Your ilk LOVE going on about "facts" and "proof" and "evidence" like you're Jack McCoy or something and somehow above celebrity gossip talk (but only when it's about someone you like).

 

Again, for the third time, all this is is people having an opinion about a public figure's known and accused behavior. If you think it's none of your business, then why interject trying to be the selective morality police because people are saying nasty things about an athlete you are a fan of?

It's what he may have done with his hands that people are taking offense to.

Phew! Thanks. I was worried I'd have to see more posts from you about this. But since you won't be part of it, I presume that'll be the last thought you have on the issue.

Guess I was wrong....MLB is investigating the allegations

Fairly certain MLB investigates all accusations.
