Michael Irvin dismisses lawsuit

[Ring6]

Entities with lots of money (all parties except Irvin) wanted this to go away. Entities with lots of money (NFL, ESPN, Marriott) then made this go away. Settlement/agreement. Dismissal. No longer in the news in about a week.

Interesting, interesting, interesting.

Not sure why the video is still going to be released if the suit is over but I also want to see if Irvin's lawyers take questions.

Suit isn't over, the refiling of the suit will happen in Arizona...

It’s never been about what he did physically, it’s about what he supposedly said that’s the issue.

To me, who cares what he said when he was drunk? People say alcohol releases the real you. That’s BS. Alcohol basically frees the inhibitions that block subconscious insanity, the amount of suppression indirectly proportional to how much alcohol has been consumed and your body can take. In other words, people can be streaming out all sorts of subconscious junk that bypasses conscious willpower to be suppressed in or out.

it could be he saw the video and knew he couldnt win, so why continue to waste more $ on legal fees?
If it didnt, irvin should get his espn and nfl network jobs back.
so lets see if that happens or not.

His lawyer saw a video and claimed there was nothing. It was also notable that he tried to make it about something physical when the whole thing was about what was said. I predicted that if they had nothing at their last press conference they would try to make it about something physical and sure enough they did. I still like my okie-doke theory where Marriott not only turned over the video Irvin's lawyer saw but more incriminating video he didn't see. Irvin's lawyer claimed that when he got to the law office to view the video that Marriott said there was more video he was not allowed to see. Whelp, I'm thinking he's seen it now.

So that’s an acceptable alibi to you?

That’s a slippery slope into excusing accidents caused by drunk driving.

Loool, smh.

They didn't think Texas was favorable enough to Mike?

Looks like we will see the video soon. Is there audio? If not it really doesn't tell us much

It tells us a lot. Marriott described several specific physical actions. If those are not present it hurts them. If they are present it helps.

 

[Silly]

Lol, for what?

It’s never been about what he did physically, it’s about what he supposedly said that’s the issue.

Folks have totally bought into Irvin’s legal team’s legal posturing about the video, hook, line, and sinker. They know the video will show nothing because the physical interaction was never the problem.

But since when is flirting or talking dirty to woman a crime? Why not just tell him to FO! And be done with it?

You have to refile in the state where the (primary)subsidiary of Marriott resides, so Marriott won't be on the hook...

Why would they care if Marriott was on the hook or not? They have the deepest pockets, don't they? Are you saying they thought that Marriott would win the "they only lease our name but it's not us" claim?

If no audio, you could read body language, like if the alleged victim pulled back or somethiing but even then, it's thin.

LOL, wut?

You get drunk at a company Christmas party. You go up to your boss and call her a bunch of vulgarities. The next day, HR calls you and you are terminated.

According to you, the boss and company should let that pass because you were drunk? LOL. OK.

I think that hotel isn't a Marriott hotel, it's owned and operated by a different company that pays to use the name Marriott on it's hotel, so I think the new lawsuit will be against the primary company that owns and operates the hotel which is primarily operating only in Arizona, but I think we'll learn more about that in the Press conference today Irvin's lawyer is holding

I think it became a crime in the last three or four years. Just watch stupid shows like the view and they will let you know all about it.

Already refilled. I think it's against the specific company and individuals in AZ.

So the hand grabbing and slapping himself was fabricated or that too counts as audio?

That makes sense...
