| Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Nigel Bradham was arrested in Miami on Monday, two days before he was due to report for training camp. Bradham turned himself in to Miami police after an incident last Thursday at a South Beach hotel, The Hilton Bentley South Beach. According to the police report, Bradham was in a group of customers at the hotel. Bradham verbally complained to a hotel worker about the speed of service. The incident "escalated," according to the police report, "when the defendant, without provocation, struck the victim in the nose with a closed fist, causing the victim to fall to the ground." |
I think we decided not to pursue some guys (Beatty, Prince, Randle) not only because they have been injured but because maybe they didn't seem to want it bad enough? Not sure as I personally don't know them.
But we definitely don't seem to have "bad character" types on our team which is good. In a matter of fact, we have guys on offense who to me are leaders: Eli, Jennings, FB Johnson, WR Cruz, entire OL outside of softer OG Jerry.

Character. You can't buy it...you can't buy heart & desire & good judgment. You earn it.

You're naive if you think it's all choir boys in the Giants' locker room. We clearly have a higher bar on character than some of our rivals but there are always going to assholes...

A lot of stuff is probably kept under wraps. I remember the Giants got rid of a punk fairly recently named Damontre Moore.

I was at a wedding about 10 or more years ago, friend of mine, and a cop was telling a story of how he pulled over TE Jeremy Shockey - DRUNK. He was a Giants fan and got him a ride home and no word of it outside of him laughing telling the story. Football players may get away with things more?
But also many things are kept under wraps whenever possible.
