Aqib Talib shot in leg at Dallas night club, one of three people injured, he has been released from the hospital. It may or may not have anything to do with Lucky Whitehead's birthday party last night.

Abiq Talib? We don't play Denver this season so this won't affect any of our games. I hope he's going to be okay.

The blurb I saw said Whitehead's party was 5 miles away and that the club where Talib got shot is a really ghetto strip club, maybe the worst in Texas. Why would a pro athlete put themselves into a place like that?

Denver Broncos cornerback Aqib Talib suffered a gunshot wound to the leg and is being treated at a Dallas hospital Sunday.

Broncos vice president of public relations Patrick Smyth confirmed that Talib had been treated for a gunshot wound to one of his legs and that the team has talked to Talib, who he said is OK.

Talib, 30, was admitted to the hospital after he was released from the emergency room. The team said it expects Talib to be released from the hospital soon.

Why would you even post that it may or may not have something to do with a Cowboys player.
Post a link or offer something to show a relation to it. Not just state it.

There are a few bad places off of Harry Hines heading out of downtown Dallas, if they are the ones I am. Thinking of.
Never been there of course. Last time I did drive by that way was in the daytime about 10 years ago. Took wrong turn leaving Dallas Museum of Arts, and after a few minutes, circled back around and seen Harry Hines, so headed on that until I got to 183 so I could head back toward home.

Because he is a pro athlete not a Rhodes Scholar?

Super Bowl champ Aqib Talib shot at Dallas nightclub

CBS/APJune 5, 2016, 5:59 PM

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. - The Denver Broncos say star cornerback Aqib Talib is recovering after being shot in the leg at a Dallas nightclub.

Team spokesman Patrick Smyth said the team has been in touch with the cornerback and that he's doing OK. Smyth said the team was gathering more information.

Last week, Talib said he was looking forward to the trip Monday to the White House where President Barack Obama will honor the Broncos for winning the Super Bowl. It's unknown if he'll still be able to make the trip.

The Broncos' three-day mandatory minicamp starts Tuesday.

Talib is entering his ninth NFL season and has been named to the Pro Bowl the last three seasons.

CBS Dallas reports that Talib was involved in another shooting at a Dallas nightclub last year, although he wasn't the victim that time. Police said Talib and his brother got into an argument with another man at the club and while they were being thrown out, a punch was thrown. Report say one of them pulled a gun and fired it off in the air. Everyone scattered and all three took off.

BTW, this has nothing to do with the Cowboys or Lucky Whitehead. Lucky may have had a club hosted party but it wasn't at the same club as Aqib Talib was at. Very reckless thread.

The original post says may or may not have anything to do with Whitehead's party. I agree that there is no reason at this point to tie them together, but if Talib was a guest at Lucky's party, does it make a difference? The only way this bothers me is if Cowboys were with the guy. Just don't see the point of putting yourself into these situations as a young guy with the world by the tail.
