The Dayton Daily News lets us know that Odell Thurman, the suspended Cincinnati Bengals linebacker, has been allowed to practice and train with the team. He has not been reinstated yet but is pursuing reinstatement. My favorite thing about this story is not that Chris Henry's partner in crime could make a comeback but the comments given by the readers of DDN when they were asked if he should be allowed to return.
hell yeah let him back -Nate
Are you kidding with this question. He should have been able to conme back last year. I personally think the COMMISH really had it in for us last year. Just wait until a really high profile player from a big market team gets into trouble. The punishments will be a lot smaller you’ll see. -Jerry
Well let’s see: Tank Johnson had enough guns to arm a small South American army and he was re-instated. Ricky’s been on the spliff train for years and he was allowed back in so yeah, Odell deserves the go ahead too. Let’s face it, our “D” really hasn’t been the same since the one year he played. I hope he goes from zero to hero again this year. We need him in case you naysayers haven’t noticed how lousy our defense has been lately. Especially, if Zimmer installs the 3-4. -ShockMonkey
Your hero’s aren’t statesmen, leaders, and people who find cures for cancer/various diseases, captains of industry, inventors, peacemakers (when they can), or theologians who preach finding peace with God…your hero’s are overpaid low intelligence trash that occasionally abuse any thing they can. You then let them off because somebody else did it and they got away with it? Ethics, values, integrity, truth, mean nothing to a person who catches a ball, it’s always someone else’s fault. Play ball! -Paul
Ricky Williams was able to come back, michael vick may come back and PATRIOTS CHEATED!!!! Thurman should be able to come back -Tiffany
You get the gist. Fans believe that since other players have done certain things they shouldn't and still got to play then why can't their guy get a second chance. Well, except for Paul. To read more comments click here. They're funny.
I seem to be discussing Kirk lately. I hope he doesn't mind. Anyway, if you aren't doing anything on February 23rd and will be in the Columbus, Ohio area, you can hang out with Kirk at the Central Ohio Home and Garden Show. He will be there greeting guests, signing autographs, and of course taking pics. Oh and if you want you can take seminars on gardening, decorating, and home improvement. And it's just $10 to attend. Things like this are reason why Kirk should not move out of Columbus, Ohio (still not knowing where he may move to). People outside of Columbus most likely wouldn't go and see him at a home and garden show.
