Giants Can Still Fall…
Posted by VeRonda Wicks January 15th, 2011Okay, I was relaxing after a long day… Hanging out, watching Sports Center. The news came on that Lawrence Taylor pleaded guilty to misdemeanors surrounded around rape charges, but avoided jail time.
This Pro football Hall of Famer admitted to having sex with a 16-year-old runaway prostitute. He said that she told him she was 19 (Really? Okay, we’re not going to take that any further; Neither are we going to discuss his wife, Lynette.). So, no jail time, but along with serving 6 years of probation he has to register as a sex offender.
This former New York Giant isn’t new to trouble, but as his lawyer spoke to the media I had that dog-turn-my-head-to-the-side look… He reiterated the facts and then concluded that this was an unfortunate situation and that his client was not a sexual predator (Are you serious, Dude?). I just couldn’t believe what I was hearing, literally. Does he deserve to be on the list?

I agree with dude’s attorney. He solicited prostitute and did not know the chick was 16. Not unfeasable at all!
Remember LaBone’s mom? She was underage and in a bar when she had her fling with an older dude?!
Naaaaw man, I don’t think LT is a sexual predator. I think he wanted to get his freak on while away from home and got caught up with a bad situation. If not for the age issue, he would not have gotten busted. I think he was typical (man) in his actions and as such, he should not receive the predator classification.
Aside from that he was still wrong! I thought his tackling days were over!

Kid, you are something else. Only you can express an argument the way you do.
