Fate of Davis - Board Says?

Davis was cut from the Cowboys on the first day of training camp the next month. The 2003 shooting came not long after a stern warning from then-new coach Bill Parcells to the team about avoiding off-field troubles.


At the time of the shooting, Mr. Davis said, he was returning home from Shreveport, La., where he had spent the weekend with friends and family.
"I wasn't going to go home, but I had missed church the previous Sunday," said Mr. Davis, "and we've got training camp coming up, and I didn't want to miss another Sunday. We were going to get home in time to change clothes and head to church."

That is one of the most ridiculous, uninformed statements I have ever seen.

Perhaps your right.

"Totally.

I mean, god forbid he go to a party."

Perhaps I should have said something to the effect that he should have been in church instead.

LOL.....

At least that would have been based on fact. Until you know that Davis was in any way responsible for this, and was anything more than a victim, any statement that blames him for "being stupid enough to get shot", is just uninformed.

No, that's not correct. It's not my opinion that you're just making stuff up - you actually are.
 
The Cowboys loses alot if they get rid of Keith Davis.


- A dominant special teams player.

- A intimidating Free Safety

- Someone who can really hit and be a force in a game

- Someone who is durable


I say keep em. Let the bad stuff be in the past. Let's move on.

Deal with it.

We can't just say let's get rid of Keith Davis because he lied to the police.

He lied to cover his tell because everybody is looking at him, their not looking at the dudes that shot him.

Let's stick with reality for a moment. He's a known football player and he has a strick coach in Bill Parcells and he has been cut before. So, Keith wanting to stay on the Dallas Cowboys team he comes up with something that may work to his advantage to people that will judge him like some of the fan that want him cut now.

If he said it at first yall would've wanted him cut. But before that some of you were saying that he should stay cause he's a big impact and a good player, but now the beans has spilled you ready to say hey hell with Keith Davis.:starspin

OK, edited my post to make it a poll.

My vote, not intelligent enough. Cut him loose.

My choice wasn't on the poll list, but I'd go with:

Keep him because,
1) We just gave him a new contract which will go on the cap regardless of what we do.
2) Trading him the same year that you match terms of an RFA is not allowed by league rules (I think?) (otherwise I'd be all over trading him to the Saints).
3)He can play special teams pretty well. We are paying him, he might as well play.

I think his role as starting FS shouild be seriously re-considered though (and I think it is)

Show me something that says Davis had anything to do with getting himself shot.

Had he never been out at 5 AM in the morning, "On his way to Church" apparently, he never would have been shot. Had he been focused on staying out of potential trouble situations, he probably would have elected to not be on the streets at 5 in the AM.

I'm not making anything up. I'm simply laying out what has already been reported.

This news really doesn't matter now, why?, because Keith Davis was the victum, something which a whole lot of people like the investigators, police, and the fans seem to forget, and it's the off-season he living his life.

You know the only reason he lied because he knew the investigators was going to judge the situation with him as the initiator of the crime.


Come on people put yourself in his situation, in his shoes.
On one scenario::

1 You are Keith Davis, you go to one of your friends party, you having a conversation with someone, a conflict breaks out because of what you said, and things get out of hand.

You leave the party to go home and that person a the party follows you and shoot you.

Come on now people just do you realize after the police get a hold of that story and it get's released into media, what some people is going to be thinking?

What they're thinking now. He's a trouble maker that can't stay out of trouble.

Brilliant logic. :rolleyes:

I'm planning on writing an espose'. The tentative title is "Driving Early in the Morning - Leading cause of Getting Shot Among Mediocre Free Safety's."

Would you mind being my interview reference?
