I think that if Lynch were driving the car.....

......they would have charged him by now.

I also think that if this wasn't Lynch or someone else famous, this wouldn't be as big of a deal.

I mean, this girl wasn't really hurt all that much (from what I hear) and I think that if it wasn't Lynch's car and just some random dude, the police and media wouldn't be making such a big deal out of this.

This happens a lot more then you think!

Actually, I thought we were similar on a lot of issues in the past, but something happened.

I don't know what it was.

the problem with your theory is these people make so much $$$ because they are the supposed pillars of our society. They are the role models for our kids. They have social responsibility like a business does not like an individual. So the Joe Blow theory just doesn't cut it.

Just because you run good with a football, or just because you make a lot of money, doesn't make you a pillar of our society. They have very little responsibility to anyones kid except their own. Parents should be role models. Running backs, should be running backs. Just because you make money, and are in the entertainment business doesn't mean you owe the population anything more then the average joe, IMO.

Not to mention, a poor guy can be a pillar of society.

Lynch very well could have been driving the car. Fortunately, police, DAs and court, can't charge anyone without evidence.

you said it yourself. He is in the entertainment business. There is a public responsibility that goes along with accepting all those dollars.

of course it wouldnt be as big of a deal. if you were accused of killing someone, it wouldnt be as big of news as OJ's trial, because he's famous. if i robbed a jewelry store, my press would be nothing compared to winona rider's, because she's famous. if my friend kills himself, he isnt going to attract the attention that kurt cobain did, for the same reason. like it or not, marshawn's name attached to something like this is big news in this town.

Yep, entertainment. Not parent. Not policeman. Not judge. Not fireman. Not even an IRS agent.

He runs with a football.

I have a very good inside source that told me his cousin was driving the car.

listen the league is clearly making a statement in the last year about the social responsibility of the players. They don't agree with your position. Even the players themselves mostly don't agree with your position. You are just making excuses because it serves your fandom.

How would he/she know?

This isn't really true. Police work often takes time to build a case...sometimes decades. It's just the nature of the beast. The police don't take guesses. They investigate until they arrive at a reasonable conclusion through the evidence presented they have a winning case in the eyes of the court and then they make an arrest. There are many times they know (as human beings) exactly what happened and who did what yet they can't make an arrest because it would be a waste of resources because they just can't make the case.
