Scared And Desperate

[Blind Gossip] When people are scared and desperate, they will do anything to save themselves.

It’s only human nature.

This professional athlete is scared.

From one source:

He is scared of losing his job. He is scared of losing his money. He is scared of going to jail.

Frankly, he should be scared. He did a violent and stupid thing. We are not exaggerating when we say that his actions could have cost another man his life.

While he initially may have hoped that an apology would smooth things over, it quickly became apparent that an apology would not be enough.

Now, a new defense strategy.

Blame the victim!

The perpetrator is going to claim racism and use that to justify his violent actions. In other words, he will try to claim that he is the real victim!

Is it true?

From a second source:

It’s all complete bullsh*t. [The Victim] didn’t do anything to him. His teammates will testify to that.

    Perpetrator Athlete: The one that ripped off the helmet and tried to kill the other dude

    Victim Athlete: Dude from the other team.

    I think this dude has a problem; he had a violent altercation prior to this one, didn’t he?

    Myles Garrett hit Mason Rudolph in the head with his own helmet. Racism — which has been dismissed as unproven— is no excuse for what Should be considered criminal assault. Mason Rudolph should be suspended more of Han one season without pay so the message is sent is it such behavior is not acceptable

  4. SouthJerseyGirl says

    Don’t know his name but this is the Cleveland Browns football player who attacked the Steeler’s quarterback.

  5. calumsmom says

    Myles Garrett attacking Mason Rudolph because he reportedly used a racial slur. Garrett is disgusting. He attacked Rudolph because he has no self control & he’s an athlete being payed millions; he feels entitled & and is probably shocked that he can’t act any way he feels like & that there are actual consequences for boorish behavior.

    I don’t know, but I’m sure all will be revealed.

  7. kvetro60 says

    Don’t know the the names but it would be the jerk who whipped the helmet off a Steelers player and beaned him with it.

  9. RaceAngel says

    Myles Garrett needs to shut up and accept his suspension.

    What really happened? Who knows. Tempers flare on the field, especially in big games against division rivals, but what he did was uncalled for.

  12. CarrieMe says

    Myles Garrett, the BS is that Rudolph kicked Garrett and tried to pull off Garrett’s helmet. Rudolph should be suspended also, you can review the game and that play. The Steelers are dirty, look what they did to Carson Palmer in the 2006 wildcard game.

    Mason Rudolf
    The NFL is full of bad actors these days and skin color is not the issue. How many have been arrested for drugs, DUIs, murder, etc.? The NFL had already lost money from empty stadiums and merchandise, now they’ve lost respect from the players after the way they handled the kneeling issue too.

  14. Peaches78 says

    Cleveland Brown Myles Garrett assaulted Pittsburgh Steeler Mason Rudolph. It seems a little odd that only now Garrett says he was reacting to a racial slur. So transparent.

  17. perspective4509 says

    This is the guy that hit the other guy with the helmet. It was stupid, but the other guy DID start it, as the video shows pretty clearly. I don’t see why he wasn’t reprimanded as well.

    Garrett is a loose cannon, he punched Delanie Walker week 1 this season.

  19. moonshy says

    The Cleveland Browns football player who was just suspended is the perpetrator. The victim is the Steelers QB he hit with a helmet. I’m admittedly too lazy to look up names.

    PA: Myles Garrett defensive player for the Cleveland Browns

    VA: Mason Rudolph quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers

  22. runner818 says

    Myles Garrett

    He lost his damn mind because his team sucks.
    Now he’s blaming the white guy and hoping it sticks. He’s a piece of * for doing that. The other guy is going to get labeled a racist.

    Myles Garrett (Cleveland Browns)
    Mason Rudolph (Pittsburgh Steelers)

    I don’t even watch football anymore, but I know who/ what this is.
    I think that Myles Garrett lost his temper and got violent, with no fear of repercussion. The NFL is ridiculous. I refuse to watch and support this garbage.

    I would be willing to forgive Myles Garrett and his temporary loss of sanity and civility. However, it sounds as though he is a total jerk. Off with his head!

  26. theotherwoman says

    The dumb * from cleveland and Rudolph from Pittsburgh. Isnt that always the defense? Racism? Give me a break

  27. surfsunsand05 says

    Perpetrator Athlete: Myles Garrett, claiming Mason Rudolph used racial slurs and that’s why he brutally attacked him (Rudolph) with his own helmet.

    Victim Athlete: Mason Rudolph (Steelers QB)

  29. GooglyMoogly says

    Athlete: Myles Garrett
    Victim: Mason Rudolph

    I think Rudolph was frustrated and pissed off at the end of the play. He jacked with Garrett (I do NOT think he said racist slurs, tho), and Garrett went after him.

    The NFL is really becoming a hot mess. I used to watch and now I can hardly stand it. So Much Mess.

  30. KCeagle says

    Myles Garrett – Cleveland Browns
    Mason Rudolph – Pittsburgh Steelers

    Tempers and emotions were running high between these 2 rival teams.
    Garrett tackled the QB Rudolph, and Rudolph attempted to take Garrett’s helmet off first. Rudolph overreacted out of frustration because he played poorly and ultimately lost the game
    I felt both players should’ve been flagged and penalized. But Garrett took things too far. But it was Mason who initially instigated things.

  33. High Steppa says

    Myles Garrett claiming that Mason Rudolph called him a racial slur. Such bullsh*t. When it’s obvious that you’re guilty, play the race card, right Jussie?

  35. LilGator says

    Myles Garrett bashing Mason Rudolph in the head with a helmet. Apparently in today’s appeal Garrett claimed Rudolph used a “racial slur”

  36. badgerette85 says

    Myles Garrett suspended for hitting Mason Rudolph in the head with helmet

    Op- I know Rudolph’s mom and I can attest that while Mason may have pulled at the Browns helmet as he tried to push him off after the sack, I seriously question whether any racial slur occurred. Mason is a highly respected player and person- this is not of his character.
    Also- you have to question the timing. If there was a slur exchanged you would think it would have been mentioned from the get go.

  37. JoshuaTree says

    CLE Browns Myles Garrett hitting PIT Steelers Mason Rudolph in the head with his helmet.

    When you look back at the video after the tackle, Mason DID start it, trying to pull off Myles’ helmet then kicking him in the nuts with his cleats (after throwing 4 interceptions he was in a pissy mood). Myles then blew up at him. Mason is a little pissant and total bro-brat, but Myles could have put him in a coma if that helmet had a direct hit.

  39. Baileygirl says

    This is about those two football players from last week. It looks as if the black player could have taken off the head or paralyzed the white quarterback but if you look carefully, it was the white player who put his hand on the black player’s helmet first. Maybe he did that to steady himself but the black player seems to have interpreted that as a threat and went after the white player’s helmet. Don’t play the race card. I would use self-defense and adrenaline rush as reasons I snapped.

    It’s the NFL. Not much will happen. They will just lose some cash and playing time.

  46. KarmaFlower says

    >frustrated exhale< I'm from Pittsburgh. This is Garrett from the Browns. The person he accused of a racial slur is our 2nd string QB Mason Rudolph-who Garrett last week struck in the head w Rudolph's own helmet. The league upheld the decisions made against the Browns, &reduced the 3 games to 2 for our Maurkice Pouncey.

    My as-inside-as-it-gets sources tell me that Rudolph didn't say anything racially motivated to Garrett. I believe them. They would know.

  47. Someone6251 says

    Garrett
    Rudolph

    Heat of the moment. Although, I do feel Rudolph should have been suspended, too because he tried ripping Garrett’s helmet off. That does not mean what G did was right, it was not.

    • Someone6251 says

      And Garrett should just take responsibility for his stupid, dangerous actions. This race card crap is beyond old!

  49. 4sixx2 says

    Miles Garrett. This is disgusting & the exact reverse discrimination that is destroying this country. I originally had sympathy for MG to not lose his job over one stupid event. Now I feel, “fire him!” And Mason Rudolph should sue him. You can never make this horrific accusation go away.
