OT--Mendenhall Robbed at Gunpoint

[cardsfanmd]

Just read on NFL.com that he tweaked a hamstring and was out of practice so he decided to fly home to Chicago for the weekend. Apparently two men in ski masks held him up with a pistol for his wallet, cell phone and pocket change.

They should have waited until after he got his signing bonus.

The report says that he gave the men his car keys as well but they handed them right back. Maybe he is still pushing a pinto.

He probably had a 5-speed and didn't know how to drive one.

That's south Chicago for you. Maybe when Rashard gets his money check he can get out of there.

The article says it was along the lake on the South Side. Is the lake front bad down south as well. Sheesh, didn't think it was.

Is it already too late to trade Dockett to move up into the first round to try and snag him??

I wasn't under the impression that it was a bad area when I visited Chicago, but I'm really no expert.

Mulli needs to watch his back or move. Chicago is a mess.

My neighborhood is just fine.

That's at least 3 athletes that have been robbed at gunpoint in Chicago. I know basketball players Eddy Curry and Antoine Walker were both robbed.

Says you!

I've been all over Chi. I really don't know if the South side is that bad, I just hear and read things. Can't be all good.

Maybe they figured it had Lo-Jack...

South Side can be pretty bad. North Side has its pretty bad pockets.

My hood has lots of Eastern European Grandmothers who watch out for everything.

I have heard that you don't mess with the Eastern Euro immigrants. They don't call police. They handle it all themselves. Crazy-like.

Bread pins are how they roll. Yeah I said it

Is this code for I live in RICHville?

 

[Mulli]

Is this code for I live in RICHville?

No, really, we are surrounded by Eastern Euros. Kinda an ethnic mix.

Northwest Side!!!

 

[RugbyMuffin]

Nope.

Trenton is like that. I lived in the "Polish-section" of Trenton. It was nice and quite. The cops never were around but the neighborhood watch was able to "keep the peace".

It wasn't a rich neighborhood, just a neighborhood the policed itself, so to speak.

They're always targets.

so glad we drafted DRC instead of this scrub. DRC would have had these guys on the ground before they knew what happened.

No way, he is so damn skinny he would have just dared them to try to actually shoot him. I can see him zig zagging down the road now.

Nice. Vodka bottles too -- empty, of course.
