    I hate to say, "He doesn't strike me as the type." because we really never know what people are capable of doing.

    This does surprise and sadden me.

    Looks like he is being charged:

    If he was staying at the hotel while working at the NFL Network, who was footing the tab? If it was the Network, the women will get paid.

    Using fame and date rape drugs to sexually abuse multiple women.

    Sounds like he stole Bill Cosby's playbook.

    Wait, we're talking about two different cases, right? Says one incident was Oct. 30 and one was Jan. 14, both involving two women.

    And then there's this:

    Prosecutors want his bail raised to $10 million because the Miami, Fla., resident faces similar investigations in Arizona, Nevada and Louisiana.

    At least they were all women, though, so the NFL doesn't have to worry about distractions.

    Maybe his father will go have to grab a beer at Applebee's to digest the news.

    Say what? Have I totally missed something or are you making a joke?

    Why? It's not like they knew he was going to be raping there.
