Gerald Sensabaugh to sign 1-yr deal *merged*

[hendog]

I really liked Sensabaugh coming out of college, but after his multiple arrests during the past few years, I was glad we didn't draft him.

I sure hope our front office did their homework this time. They claimed to not have known about some of Adam Jones' prior incidents that were widely publicized, and Sensabaugh's incidents were much less publicized.

Surely to goodness our front office can find his past transgressions if Smith22 can google them up in 3 minutes.

That's crazy talk...they're already dead.

However, if you take out the zombies head, the organism that ignites life in the corpse can no longer reanimate the body. Geeze, everybody knows that.

 

[Paniolo22]

Please. The gun charges were dropped. Making a mistake and getting into trouble for a misdemeanor does automatically equate to being a cancer or problem maker.

No one on this board would think we were hiring a thug if we signed Marvin Harrison and he freaking shot a guy.

No one has any business carrying an AK-47, unless they are in Iraq or Afghanistan. It has NO positive use in society whatsoever. We are asking for trouble if he continues on this path.

I still hope KD resigns and a SS and a FS gets drafted... Create competition.. Whoever doesn't cut it can go.. IE Watkins and Brown..

 

[jday]

I personally like the signing...not the gun stuff obviously, but he will replace Davis most likely, which will be an upgrade at the SS position. On special teams he may be equal or better then what Keith brought.

going into the season with Hammer at SS and this kid as back up and ST stud I like the move. Flexible enough to have him or Hammer move back to FS if they need to.

While I like this acquisition and I think he might adequately replace Roy Williams at SS, I'm not sure you can replace the vocal leadership of Killa Keith. I hope we don't allow Keith leave, though, I doubt he does as he likely is only looking for the opportunity to start, which I doubt he gets.

Did you just skip over the zombies? People really need to read the whole thread before commenting.

 

[Hostile]

Did anyone notice he's from the same neck of the woods as Witten? Kingsport, TN is a stones throw from Elizabethton. I wonder if Jason would take him under his wing and educate him on not to make the same mistakes...

to The Zone. It took you long enough to post. Keep it up.

Well, I'm sure in his mind, driving a Bentley at the time, he was thinking balance of power. Think what you want, as long as he doesn't have a history of aggravated assault, assault with a deadly weapon, or armed robbery, I really don't care what type of weapon he is carrying.

Considering it was a small town, the case really kind of stinks of jealousy and profiling, if you read between the lines. You know one of those "we don't take kindly to your kind around here" situations. Having spent some time in the country myself, just about everyone carries a weapon in their vehicle. In most cases, it's for the occasional deer or other game creature, but make no mistake, it's also about the confidence to cuss out people who piss you off in traffic. If they arrested everyone carrying a weapon in their vehicle, no one would show up to church on Sunday, including the preacher.

If anything they saw the opportunity to arrest someone for a regularly unenforced law to collect the bail money, which they knew he easily could afford.

When I drive my Bentley I always make sure I pack my matching AK...

 

[jobberone]

It wasnt an AK it was the semi automatic civilian version of the weapon. Its basically a rifle

He had a license for the weapons thats why he was not charged for them

OMG, we agree on something!

People. Many people esp from the south and western states have weapons. Most are for hunting. Here are some general guidelines as to ownership of automatic weapons in the US by non-military and paramilitary owners or institutions: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AK-47_legal_status#In_the_United_States with no reference to any other state, federal, or local laws.

There is no difference in an AK-47 and any other semiautomatic fire rifle or pistol except differences in mechanism of fire, appearance and such. Now they must not have the ability to be converted easily to automatic fire modes, have the ability to easily use to bayonet, etc. While you may convert a true Kalashnikov's automatic rifle model of year 1947 into an automatic weapon with one 'part' I'm certain that's not true for newer 'copies' of it. So a 30-06 semiautomatic is no different in rate of fire than a non-militarized version of an AK-47 or other semiautomatic weapon including pistols.

Many people transport weapons in their cars esp in the trunk or out of arms reach. That is how they must be transported. It's obviously sensational to report an 'AK-47' being in the car but there is no difference than any other modern semiautomatic weapon.

I get why he wasn't charged...but he needed ALL of that to go to the barber shop? I can also believe it has to do with the location of the shop, but it still seems a bit overkill to me.

It does lessen my enthusiasm over the guy, not that I had much to begin with.

Maybe he was getting a hair cut to look spiffy for his hunting trip.

It's a one year deal, in a position of tremendous need and a decent player.

The law strongly disagrees with you.

 

[dallasfaniac]

Sounds like Sensebaugh was offering the barber paid protection and brought the guns along like his personal portfolio.

Well dudes in the projects carry AR-15's and Desert Eagles. So i understand why he would carry an AK-47. As long as it was registered i have no problem.

**** the world is ending?

 

[TellerMorrow34]

Never heard of the guy. Hopefully he'll do well.

 

[DaBoys4Life]

IDK much about this guy but it seems like a nice pick up.

I have no idea where he was going or coming from with the weapons. Its possible he had just came from shooting them. Its possible he was taking them to show someone. No idea.

I do know that I carry 2 pistols in my car when I am driving. One on my back and one next to me.
