Miami ready to Rolle again

[SALADIN]

Just goes to show you how so many (on this board) were so quick to write he, his draft status and his career off before a judge had a chance to rule.

It is most unfortunate that innocent until proven guilty doesn't and may never apply to all of us citizens. What a country.

(1:00 PM): Miami CB cleared of criminal charges

Miami CB cleared of criminal charges...Miami CB Antrel Rolle, one of the top prospects for the 2005 draft, will be re-instated to the team after charges that he struck a police officer were dismissed. In dropping the charges, the district attorney's office said that while the incident did occur - the incident took place when police tried to restrain Rolle who was involved in a fight outside a local bar - Rolle had no prior record and had been contrite.

Innocent until proven guilty? What are you talking about? He did do it. They're just dropping the charges because it was a first offense, and probably because of his celebrity as well.

Beauty of a second-round pick.

If Parcells signs off on this guy, sign me up.
