Official Miami Herald Bain article

We don't even know if Rueben made a bad decision.

There were three other people in the car. One of whom was not a football player. Nobody knows if Rueben was the designated driver. Nobody knows what happened with the other vehicle. ****, a week ago, I was going north on US 1, heading up onto I-95, and there was some dip**** who just STOPPED in the right lane. No idea why, maybe he was lost, maybe he had car trouble, but it was dark and I'm lucky I saw the dude in time as the road was curving towards the left.

All of this nonsense is pure speculation. Did someone die? Sadly, yes. That doesn't mean that anyone did anything wrong. When cops write citations, it is almost always WITHOUT having witnessed the accident. The fact that there are no wrongful death lawsuits and no other criminal charges MIGHT BE a decent indication that nobody in the car (three other people) or the family of the one person who died...you know...might NOT think that Rueben did anything wrong.

But, yeah, some Gator alum Herald writer can spin a few context-less facts (and I'm not disputing the underlying truth of what he wrote) into something that sounds much more sinister in its implications.

The family already said that they support Bain and wish him well.

Does anyone besides my 90 year old mother even get the newspaper anymore?

Why would you? The last time I got the Herald, it was about the size of the Sunday cartoon insert that used to be in the Sunday paper that my grandfather got in the 1980s.

Back in the day there was nothing like dropping that Sunday morning deuce with the Herald sports page unfurled. Usually a solid Eddie the Pope column about previous days Canes game. Took a good 15 min to get through it

Nobody is arguing with "factual" on an overly simplistic level.

People question the timing of the article and the implications of the headline. And, no, some "Ohio Taint fan" doesn't necessitate that article.

Guarantee the Editor gave all of the reporters a long talk about how their paper was not the one who broke this story. The timing of it was simply them reporting it because it went national. I got an espn alert about this yesterday because I have Miami as my favorite team on their app. They couldn't wait a couple days and then put something out. Timing is everything in their world. The Ohio St cuck did this right before the draft on purpose to slander a person on the team who beat their precious cuckeyes.

But I do agree with you about the circumstances and the fact there was never any type of charges brought. Probably a good chance since there was a death there was pressure to find somebody to be at fault. I was side swiped by a 78 year old guy in the evening a few years back. We pulled over and he asked if I saw the tire rolling down the road too. I said I have no clue what you're talking about. You hit me. He told the cops I hit him, and they would not take statements from the people in my car since they were not "neutral." Insurance said there was nobody at fault and we each had to pay our own deductibles. I was furious, but all the more reason to get a dash cam in case anything like that does happen. All it takes it some old geezer who shouldnt be driving, or an ******* who just lies, and with no video proof its your word against theirs.

The Herald sports coverage used to be very comprehensive. They even had a pro wrestling column that was done by Alex Marvez.

Don't forget baseball box scores plus fishing report, always a must during post-brunch deposit.
