3. Good grief. The Giants aren't idiot-free. Most football teams have idiots to spare. They just have one less idiot to worry about.

6. Hey T - Maybe it's not that TMZ has something more to say about the "darker colored celebrities" - maybe they do more to be commented on. Wake up and look around. You don't get arrested for not breaking the law.
I'm so sick of the criminals playng the victim when they get caught.

10. I applaud the Giants. It's about time that someone started to stand up to these "gansta" players. Kids look up to these guys, adults admire their abilities. They are given multi-million dollar/multi year contracts and they still act like they are in the hood. And they get away with things that you and I would go to jail for. Not for nothing but there are several awesome players out there that are standing in line for his job. No one is that important.

11. Belle, there is a definite double standard. Such as Chris Brown facing charges, when the sham wow guy beat his
hooker to a pulp and know charges where filed. Ryan Moats being ticketed for basically driving while black. Need I go on...

Yes, please go on. We all want to hear about the "woes" and "mis-treatment" of black people. Please?! We just haven't heard enough!
