Irvin pulled from Super Bowl coverage

[Diehardblues]

still aint really a crime. It’s just bad manners . ANYONE can make a claim but context and content of said claim matters.

History also matters too. And Irvin has more than enough. Plus admitted he’d been drinking . How stupid was that.

He thought drinking allowed him to say whatever he wanted . Instead that was incriminating.

very stupid. I agree. BUT that still don't mean he did anything wrong yet.

In a hotel lobby? Either this is a nothing burger or Irvin was completely hammered.

The accusation was enough for NFL network to remove him from their Super Bowl coverage and move him from his hotel. If it happened in the hotel lobby there should be a surveillance video. Sounds like he was hammered because he claimed he didn’t remember talking to anyone and admitted he was drinking. The video will surface eventually. Surprised TMZ hasn’t gotten a hold of it by now.

Beyond stupid. He basically lost his credibility in a "he said/she said" battle.

Define wrong? Are you saying illegally. Probably not.

But he did enough to be booted from hotel and his job for rest of week.

And who knows what civil action could come .

he wasnt booted. It was the Networks choice. We have 0 facts yet. It may be they overreacted.

No idea what the video means but this guy was with him and has video in follow up tweets. Mike seems a little buzzed but not sure what to make of it

This isn’t the first time Irvin has encountered problems of this nature. Read carefully, this was from a few years ago. This has nothing to do with the recent incident.

 

[Rayman70]

so a man should lose his job status etc based on a few words? WOW. That sounds fair.

Imagine a situation being removed from a hotel. I’ve stayed all over the country and can’t imagine a celebrity being booted.

Whatever he said or did was enough for hotel to take action. And a result NFL Network to take action.

Who on this forum has ever been booted from a hotel? Or their job as a result like this ?

It must have been much more than we can imagine .

Sure. People lose their jobs all the time for what they mouth off .

Then throw in his history.

media members were THERE with him and deny anything happened. I feel he will be vindicated.

it depends. The Irvin hatred is real.

media members with him back Irvin 100%. Tony Bruno stated as such.

I hate the conduct he has off the field . If he wasn’t a celebrity athlete , he’d most likely be an ex convict if he wasn’t still in there.

Someone who’s been arrested for rape and confessed to cocaine , etc is not a celebrity I usually support.

thats fair but no man is unblemished unless he is Christ himself...so does Mikes past make him guilty?

This video shows right before it. I’m torn. I agree with many things…he’s shown the knack to be in trouble before, he was a great player, he seemed buzzed from the statements and video, we have yet to see video of the interaction, people do set people up, I don’t think he’s got a great rep within studio sports…..I’m still waiting for NFL or others to straight out show what happened or at least tell us the “incident”

Its a different world.....changing more and more. All you need is an accusation, and the corps will poop their pants instantly distancing themselves.
No facts or truth needed.

I don’t think Jesus had quite the Rap Sheet of Irvin. Lol

And these celebrities know that. Michael has quite the rap sheet. And he’s been out drinking admittedly and then some altercation. He has to be smarter than that .

The facts and truths are Michael has a Rap Sheet a mile long. He should have an entourage protecting him from himself .
