Irvin pulled from Super Bowl coverage

[Jake]

12 pages eh?

Unfortunately, it's the only Cowboys-related Super Bowl talk we can have this week.

 

[gimmesix]

She can't when she's gagged and tied up in the basement.

Shhh ... the internet has ears.

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

and the 1% ers that control these outlets.

It's because of how advertising conglomerates work.

 

[Blackrain]

I would like to see the video did they shake hands in the beginning of the conversation or the end.

I'd like to see a close up of her facial expressions during the conversation if there is no audio that could tell a lot.

Michael Irvin on super bowl week talks to quite a few people after a couple drinks it wouldn't be hard to not remember a 45 second encounter.

Heck this woman could just dislike him from his act on television or be a scorned buffalo bills fan who knows.

I know one thing if I Michael Irvin I'm getting a lawyer and I'm dissecting this thing to find out if I've actually done anything wrong.

 

[AbeBeta]

Facts arent needed I see. Just lost his gig based on here say. Makes sense. I will say this, he brought this on himself. He has to understand anytime he is in the public eye he is an easy target. Thats on him.

Lol. Here say.

They've got video and a credible claim.

But it is so on brand that you can't spell but lecture others on 1st amendment rights.

Or, the simpler explanation is that he was drunk and inappropriate. He admitted to having been drinking and has a bit of a history of bad behavior.

If you've gotta twist and twist to find an angle, it usually isn't there.

Yeah well I've seen more than one woman get a little butt hurt over something and blow it all out of proportion.
Just because they can!!!
Some people can justify their actions against a celebrity like Michael just because he's famous and wealthy.
There are a lot of sick people out there and yes Michael has had his indiscretions but I don't feel like he's out to intentionally hurt. anyone at this stage of his life.

 

[calico]

I’ll wait for due process.

 

[Blackrain]

I’ll wait for due process.

Exactly Michael is an ex-cowboy player and certainly the biggest cowboy fan.

So I think I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt until something is proven positive other than a handshake and a 45 second conversation.

In today's world that woman could have solicited him offered him drugs or any number of things that he rebuffed and she got mad and tried to smear him over it.

Just because he's done some things in the past doesn't automatically make him guilty

 

[buybuydandavis]

A woman made an accusation of improper conduct in a hotel lobby. Can't link it here right now.

There are likely lots of accusations flying around all the time.

Management supports them when they're looking for an excuse to dump you.

Since we're bored, I'll share a personal story my twin brother and I had with Michael Irvin down in deep South Texas back in late Spring of 1995...

I had just finished serving in 1994. I was in the State of Texas Firefighter Academy for South Texas at the time. M-F with weekends off. My brother was a ticket agent for American Airlines out of the Valley International Airport in Harlingen, Texas.

It was a Saturday morning and my brother called and asked me if I could go pick him up at 4 pm that afternoon from work since his car was in the shop. I showed up to pick up my brother from work, and he asked me to wait a while for him because someone special had just flown in and was waiting for a limousine to come pick him up and drive him to McAllen, Texas for an arranged get together dinner with some Valley leaders, get checked into a luxury hotel, then be an honorary guest late that evening at the biggest club in the area at that time (Club X). Around 20 minutes after 4 passed by when my brother came out and took me to the back inside their company offices. There he was sitting comfortably with a big smile......Michael Irvin. It was a huge surprise! He gave everyone hugs and took pictures. He was so happy with how well my brother treated him that he (Michael) invited us to join him that evening in McAllen. My brother and I couldn't make it since we both were pre-planned to be part of our grandparents 45th anniversary celebration that evening, but it was an honor to be personally invited by Michael Irvin to join him. He understood but the offer stood in case we found a way to show up at least to Club X late that evening. Sadly, my brother and I weren't able to make it, but to this day, we think of what could have happened had we shown up? Regardless, Michael Irvin was a perfect gentleman and super friendly. What a trip. The Playmaker and multi-SB Champion with America's Team and arguably the best WR in the history of the Dallas Cowboys... Michael Irvin!!! Will never forget that day.

 

[coult44]

It’s amazing Irvin has gone this long before being cancelled. Lol

Nowadays you can look at a woman the wrong way and this is the next more. Let’s let the details come out first before we say anything

 

[Zman5]

You have no idea what happened and apparently Irvin doesn’t know either because he was drinking. He obviously made an inappropriate comment to her and she was offended. You can get into a lot of trouble making comments while you’re drinking. Jimmy the Greek ruined his career making stupid comments while drinking.

Jimmy the Greek did it in an interview. There is no doubt on what happened or what was said with his incident. So far with Irvin, it's just he said she said unless there is an audio recording of their conversation.

To some extent, given electronic news outlets reporting along with "famous" people attending events that are mixed in with fans, and I hate to say this, it almost like scouting events where it's always "2 deep". For scouting, this means than anytime an adult is with a minor, there HAS to be two adults together when "one on one" with a minor.

Did Irvin actually do anything? Who knows, could be 50/50 either it's a whacked out woman or perhaps Irvin had too many and he got frisky with a hot attractive woman who was looking to bag someone of his stature and Irvin backed off and ticked her off or perhaps he did do something. Thing is, if Irvin had someone with him, he now has "back up" as to what actually happened.

Not saying having "two deep" is right or wrong with adults, but given the possible headaches being that your famous, it could be a life saver.

Know a guy in scouts that was with a boy on a camping trip. For 5 minutes, they were alone together with no one else around. In that 5 minutes, the boy claimed that the adult acted improperly with him. Became a huge fiasco, but in the end, the boy made up the story because the adult had reprimanded him a couple of weeks prior, and the boy wanted to get back at him. Made the guys life living hades for a couple of weeks until the truth finally came out.

When it comes to social media, seems people are guilty on anything they are accused of until the facts actually come out.

That sir, is a cool story, thanks for sharing.

 

[HowardC]

I will say this, Michael MIGHT have asked her "how much." Can't rule that out with his history. But I kinda doubt that happened.

So what if he did?

 

[Walker]

Just starring at someone can get you in trouble these days and it wouldn't even last more than a few seconds.

 

[HungryLion]

I’m not necessarily saying Irvin did anything wrong this time or defending his cancellation. Moreso a joke about his history.

 

[MWH1967]

good grief

 

[Flamma]

Like him or hate him. 88 is great for the league. Yes he's a clown at times and his act gets trying, but the dude is a showman and truly LOVES the NFL and our Dallas Cowboys. He BLEEDS BLUE. He is genuine and luvs the fans as well. I respect that. He is unafraid.

Irvin is one of my favorite people, but when you're a high profile person you have to be careful. Could someone have set him up? Of course. Is he that important, or worth the trouble? IMO, no. We don't know what happened here. How many times have we heard, this person did X, and what actually happened was nowhere near X. It's just someone's interpretation of the events.
