May not hold but just goes to show what a Dumb Stupid Thug he is.....If the NFL condones actions like this then they are no better than Mclain.......
Don't be surprised to see the charges amended.
He will be one of those players you see on ESPN, that one year after being out of the league, broke.
If Obama had a son?
None of this had to happen. McClain loves publicity, and even bad publicity feeds his habit. I believe L above is correct.
what a role model.
He is a thug, but here is the real issue. There is no accountability in sports of ANY kind. Young kids look up to these athletes as role models. The NFL and others, if they had any guts, would set higher behavior standards. Act right on and off the field, or risk being banned from the sport. These athletes, as good as they are, mostly came from nothing to being a millionaire overnight. Money and fame can buy you out of anything, just look at Lindsey Lohan, another fine role model for our youth. Pitiful.
If this is Decatur's claim to fame in the football world, then God help us.
6-foot-3, 255-pounds of hey look at me I "think" I'm special! Yea you are.... a special DA! Really, all he had to do is sign the ticket it with his REAL name and then went to court crying because he was "profiled" and they would have dropped his case probably. He was a great player at Bama and I liked to watch him play but he has surely made a name for himself and its not a good one. You've got it handed to you on a silver plate now Ro- either straighten up and fly right or please don't come back to Decatur with your cocky I'm somebody attitude- no one wants that. I can say that I'm tired of reading YOUR name in the paper because.. all you seem to be bringing is negativity......trifling!
If Rebecca had a brain?
He is gonna learn to stay out of Decatur or the boy........yes I said boy because he isnt much of a man.......or the boy is gonna lose everything he has. Why be so boneheaded??? DECATUR does NOT want you. Your like a tick or a leach stuck on our forehead that everyone stares at when they talk to us. GO BACK TO OAKLAND!!!
Nothing but a spoiled thug that doesn't deserve the success he has received
rebecca is a idiot..
An idiot that is. Get it right, Jack
He had a letter from a doctor saying he has a condition from bright sunlight. Tickets have been dropped in Decatur court before for this reason and the cops know that. I'm not taking up for him but I know as well as alot of other people that there are quite a few of Decatur cops that are A**HOLES !!!!!!
Roger you need to read the law. It is open to the public and it is posted online for everyone to see. A doctor's excuse is not worth the paper it is written on just by itself, it has to go with an application for exemption. The driver has to fill out an application with the State of Alabama to be exempt from the tint law. That application is sent in and the STATE, not any local judge decides whether or not they can be exempt. Then the state issues them the exemption or denies it. If they hold an exemption from the state then no ticket can be written. So tell me Roger, how do you know tickets in court have been dropped for a "doctor's excuse"? And escpecially how do you know that the cops know that? So to sum up for you Rog, no exemption from the state, too dark of tint gets a ticket! I am just curious though, how can you play football in the direct sunlight but need an exmeption to drive in a car?
Any local judge or prosecutor can and will drop the ticket !!! Mr. Chris you may think that you are a lawyer but you are not. I know because I have been in court and seen it happen. There are some Decatur cops that think they rule but they are nothing more than cowards behind a badge !!! Go to Decatur court and see how many charges are dropped down or dismissed completely. I was there today and saw several. Where were you Mr.Chris ? Reading the law online???
Roger, can you read?, if so Code of Alabama 1975, and probably if you were in court is because (based on your apparent hatred for the police) you are an offender yourself, and I am certain the COPS feel the same way about you. You still did not answer the question posed to you Rog, how can you play football in the direct sunlight but need an exemption to have tinted windows? If Chris was reading the law on line at least he is getting his facts together, something you could learn from. He wasn't in court like you answering to a charge I suppose, since you have "seen it happen" meaning more than once. that would make you a frequent flyer for city court would it not? Even if you have 'seen it happen", you do not know all the facts of the dismissal I assure you unless the case involves you. And no rocket scientist, I am not an attorney.
This just shows what a great coach Saban is. He was able to keep thug boy out of trouble the whole time he was at the U of A.
So now you know what the judges will do huh Roger? As a matter of fact Roger I was reading the law online when you were apparently in court. Good call. Calling someone a coward behind a badge is a pretty strong statement Roger. Its okay, you being in court today explains your hatred for police. You either got arrested or was written a ticket. I am sure that you know why all of the cases were either dismissed or pled down while you were in court today. I am sure that the city judge and the city prosecutor called you up to let you sit in on their private conversation and may have even asked your advice. That was sarcasm.
Attorneys and lawyers do that all the time with the judges. It is called plea bargaining, you can look that up on the Internet too. Other cases get dismissed if all of their fines are paid. Seeing how you are a fellow citizen of Hartselle maybe you wont hold such disdain for the Hartselle police. I do not think they are cowards behind a badge and would gladly call them if I needed them.
I was in court with a friend who had been charged for a trumped-up charge from a Decatur cop that had a chip on his shoulder and was nothing more than a punk POS !!! Boy you two guys realy do think you know everything !!! Have you two ever thought of becoming Decatur cops? You would fit right in. As a matter of fact the prosecutor saw through the cops BS and dropped the charges without even talking to the judge !!! One day when one of these Decatur cops with a chip on his or her shoulder gets you or someone you know on some made-up BS you will see the other side...
Hey Chris and Thor I guess you need to read more about Alabama tint laws. Section 32-5C-3 says that if a vehicle is registered in another state besides Alabama that it is EXEMPT form the tint law of Alabama !!!!!!! And also Mr. Lawyers section 32-5C-6 says that if you have tint on your windows that a compliance sticker must be on the car saying the tint is legal. I have never heard of anyone or have never been personally ticketed for this !!!!!! So what about that boys ????? I can read too !!! Why don't you get off the guy's back ? Jealous that he has went on to make millions and you guys are stuck with what you got ? Quit hatin'
