Dr. Harry Edwards

Isn't LAPD known for being one of the most crooked groups of cops in the country?

Who cares if they were targeting him or not, that doesn't mean crap, he still needs to be smart enough to just shut up and do whatever they say while he's in the airport whether he wants to or not, just like the rest of society that don't like to deal with random searches.

What you don't do is pull the "I'm Aldon Smith" card and sarcastically say you have a bomb, ESPECIALLY if (as it's being reported by LAPD) you are intoxicated, oh yeah, intoxicated while being under the microscope of the league for your well documented drinking problems....

Dude just isn't smart...

He looks plenty cooperative in the video. We have seen nothing of him going around yelling bomb. We don't see him not doing what they told him to do.

Agree. Hopefully that's what the actual situation turns out to be and this turns out to be nothing.

The fact that he was arrested by LAPD doesn't bode well for him no matter what happens from here though.

No matter what though, it sure as hell is going to be worse now, then if he would have just shut up and dealt with it by not saying anything at all and just going on his free way with no videos of him being detained running on TMZ....

We need somebody that can reach these players that they can respect!

From what I've seen, the videos work in his favor.

Someone a while back posted that players never respected this guy. Can't remember who it was. But I believe Dr. Harry Edwards was brought up last Aldon incident.

True, but I think we went 5-0 because of the schedule. All losing teams except AZ which was a home game.

I do agree with your point though. By all accounts, Aldon is a good locker room guy. But if he keeps getting in trouble he will hurt the team. We're relying on him to be on the field to help us win a championship. His antics jeopardize that.

OK. So do we cut him and still lose a championship or do we work with him for the chance to win one. I would rather have "potential access" to a HOF caliber player than to have to play with a team cancer. "I would rather suit up 10 men and just get penalized all the way than to play with 11 when I know that that 1 person is not sold out to the team."

Definitely work with him. No way should we cut him, that would be foolish and it's exactly what 31 other teams want us to do. Just let him play out his contract, maybe even franchise him when his deal expires. We need to buy some time to decide if it's worth extending him or not.

Franchise him? He's going to be our Franchise Player? I'm laying my money down on the other side of that.

Agree. From what we've heard on the video he wasn't violent, aggressive, or confrontational. He was mad, which is understandable.

I hear on the video someone saying "s+it" about six times. Not cooperative. But also, was he frisked? They don't even check his bag. If this was Aldon, there's not enough here to cut him. If he was drunk, have they given him a sobriety test? If they do (rather than saying he appeared to be drunk) and he fails it, then the discussion for his release becomes legitimate because that was connected to his DUIs.

And I can't hear him say "bomb" at all.
Without tmz this would have been a non issue, police would have dealt with it team would have dealt with it then the fans would have heard the official police report and wed be saying wtf and carried on with our regular days.

Not gonna lie, this is the first thing that popped in my mind when hearing of this incident
Some Squad e've developed into. We got an Alcoholic Pass rusher who is as good as there is but cant mature, we have an ignorant CB in Cully who keeps making obnoxious descisions. Then we have an immature horny QB who hits the Bong on South Beach. Wow what a frustrating offseason this has become.

Saying s**t (possibly not him) is being uncooperative?
