Can we grab the torches and kill this guy?

Former Bucs safety Kalvin Pearson is in a Tampa jail after getting arrested on charges of domestic violence, including domestic battery by strangulation, according to Hillborough County jail records.

Pearson, 29, was booked this morning at 7:48 a.m. at Orient Road Jail, with two felony and one misdemeanor charges; aggravated battery of a pregnant female, domestic battery by strangulation, and obstructing or opposing an officer.

No bond has been set.

Pearson spent three solid seasons with the Bucs, making 87 tackles in 46 games, before signing a three-year, $3.5 million deal with the Lions last month.

He better not only be cut by the Lions but banned by the league. This is god damned absurd. Fuck Marinelli talking about him having amazing football character. Apparently that must mean being a total pyscho who deserves to be Carruth'ed.

Should we at least wait to string the guy up until after we make sure he at least seems to be guilty?

I don't know him from Adam's housecat but it isn't unheard for someone to be charged on domestic stuff without cause. He may be guilty as hell three times over and if so then he needs to be landed on with both feet, but unless there's some history or something I don't know about, there isn't enough in that article for me to know whether he's the worst guy in the world or simply involved with a lying psycho.

This is why I have trouble rooting for teams in the NFL anymore.

NFL players in general have jaded me to it being almost incomprenesible to take their side at all. Hell, athletes in general.

Wise choice not using the word noose in the title instead of torch.

I think the better decision was skipping "lynch" and going with "kill"...
