'Deadly Conduct' warrrant issued for Deon Anderson

[the kid 05]

oh chris tucker...

 

[JohnnyHopkins]

Sad to hear this, but the initial reports aren't painting this out to be someting that can be brushed aside like Spencer's was.

 

[Hoofbite]

I don't know why we're so crazy about what Deon did. It's not like he held up a bank or crashed into somebody drunk.

Dude, its all public perception. Downplaying it compared to a more serious crime is useless.

Its that simple. If you reflect poorly on the league, you get into trouble. If you reflect poorly on your boss, you likely find another employer.

Its pretty clear by now that you just don't put yourself in those positions and you'll be fine.

 

[Doomsday101]

So he should have total job security unless it rises to that extreme level? Lucky for him if that's true.

No but this incident should not be the cause of releasing him. No player should have total job security as far as that goes. If he is released it should be based on what he has or has not done on the field. Should we cut a player if he gets a ticket? I'm all for cleaning up the league I don't know if I would consider this incident a major deal

 

[big dog cowboy]

He is only the second Cowboys player to be arrested since late 2005. Linebacker Anthony Spencer was held by police after a confrontation at an Indianapolis nightclub last year, but charges were later dropped.

Wow is that all? I knew Jerry clean up the joint but that is amazing.

I agree but should he get a warning for this considering Anderson has no prior incidents? at least none that I have heard about.

I dunno. Guess it depends. Is he all that great?

If the answer is no, why not take the opportunity to make an example out of him. If you think he can be easily replaced, why not just remind the team that this type of behavior (negatively reflecting upon the team) is unacceptable and find a FB.

If you can't replace him that easily, then maybe you do give him a break.

 

[CF74]

the hell is deadly conduct?

*sigh* Why can't these guys just behave?

My guess is that he was either driving wrecklessly or he pulled out his gun on the valet guys...

 

[jobberone]

Sounds like a total bunch of BS to me. If he had threatened anyone they would charge him with assault. They're doing like they ususally do. Charge him with the worse thing possible irregardless of the circumstances. I used to be a cop and this sounds like someone being a Dick Tracy.

The guy unknowingly had a traffic ticket. I don't think the guns are a problem like I initially thought. I believe Texas law allows you to carry firearms in your car. Someone correct me on that please if its wrong.

If you cut him because there is someone better to take his place great I have no issue with that.

Cutting him because of this minor incident no I would not. Unless there is much more to the story than there is now.

As it stands now I would give him a warning about the consequences of his behavior but out right releasing him because of this no I wouldn't.

It seems you are willing to give a guy a free pass if he is a stud and your gone if your not?

I don't see it like that either he did something that warrants a dismissal or he didn't

 

[The Realist]

With all the press the Gilbert Arenas issue is getting I wouldn't be suprised to see Deion Gone.

In terms of personnel, I'd rather get a good 4th TE and have 3 TE's share the FB responsibilities.

Witten, Bennett, Phillips, Gronkowski/Gresham/Hernandez/Graham.

Phillips proved he deserves to be on the field.

I'd give him full time FB part time TE duties along with going out to get another TE who can be a threat.

Love Hernandez........6-2/250.........4.6-4.65 speed.....

Reminds me of Cooley.

 

[Cowboys22]

Honestly, I could care less. He is one of a handful of players that could be upgraded. Now, I think we should expect that "could be" to be changed to "will be".

Pretty much how it goes isn't? Good players can slide by while the crappy ones can't.

You are correct.


Section 46.02
(a) A person commits an offense if the person [he]
intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly carries on or about his or
her person a handgun, illegal knife, or club if the person is not:
(1) on the person's own premises or premises under the
person's control; or
(2) inside of or directly en route to a motor vehicle
that is owned by the person or under the person's control.


If you own, or are lawfully in control of a motor vehicle and are inside of or en route to it, and are not a member of a gang or involved in a criminal activity at the moment, you may lawfully possess a handgun without a CCW.

Like it or not, this is the reality. If this were Demarcus Ware, we wouldn't be having this discussion.

Jimmy Johnson cut a guy because he was caught sleeping in a team meeting. He was cut because he was expendable. Had the sleeping player been Micheal Irvin the consequences, if any, would have been quite different.

It may not be fair, but that's the way it is.

It wouldn't bother me at all if he was cut, just to send a message to the rest of the team. Jimmy did it.

Anderson has put himself in this situation. He will have to deal with whatever the Cowboys decide to do with him.

Crappy players get cut for being crappy. I don't think Anderson is the greatest FB I do think he does a decent job for us as a FB and on special teams. If dallas can find a better replacement and upgrade the position I'm all for it but no I don't think bad or unlawful behavior is something good players should get away with while others are punished for doing less. Should Deion Anderson be treated like Pac Man Jones? Pac Man had a history dating back to college as far as I know Anderson does not

 

[landryscorner]

bye loser get rid of him Jerry...I say he's gone

Look how many chances Pacman was given. If you can play, you are given many chances. If you can't play, nobody is going to risk anything for you.

Whether or not it is fair is another question but that's usually how it works.

 

[Kevinicus]

So...we can go sign Tony Richardson now right? Everywhere that man goes the running game is awesome.

 

[Gzus]

Just use one of your 3 TEs as an H back when you want a blocker in the backfield, they block just as well at times but have better hands, why waste a roster spot on a FB?
