I guess I wonder if they just did that since it's registered to him but c'mon it's just wishful thinking to assume otherwise. I just woke up to this info though I don't know anything. Just read the injuries are minor though so that's good news for them.

They haven't found Cam Sutton yet. Do you think we will have to start a Rashee Rice / Cam Sutton disappearance mega thread?

Everyone knows if you simply abandon your car with all the paperwork and registration, the cops can't establish jurisdiction.

But hey, rookie contracts don’t pay like the did in the Sam Bradford days, gotta be more financially responsible about which car you’re going to try to kill people with.

As far as performance goes, Corvettes are probably the undisputed king of "bang for your buck" at this point. Certainly the best car to buy on a rookie contract if you're looking for speed.

 Car looks less destroyed than I imagined also for some reason I assumed it was night.  That definitely looks like it could be Rice in the red durag. I also assumed they ran, not casually walked away.

Yeah it's very, very daytime. It's going to be a big difference if everyone was sober and up on a Sunday morning getting in a wreck and if one of his friends was driving. If it's...everyone was still up from the previous night it's a much bigger situation. I mean, if they are hammered after drinking all night they're pretty casual about it https://www.tmz.com/2024/03/31/first-photos-rashee-rice-car-crash-site-dallas-occupants-leaving-scene/?adid=social-tw more images here

NFL GMs should put no driving clauses in contracts. We've got a 24 hour car service at your disposal day and night. We will reimburse you any cab fare. If we receive any evidence of you driving a car on a public road you will lose 5 million dollars.

But what about this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k88bwHtOj4Q Weird thing I just noticed Rashee gets out of the lambo which he doesn't own, not the vette. All three dudes get out of the passenger side too. That's...well that was smartish I guess? Feel like there will be footage later showing who was driving

Players just called an 800 number on their union card or something and they could get a car or limo basically anywhere in the country. It was like a $100 fee, and supposedly confidential. However, they dropped the program pre-COVID, in part because stuff like Uber and Lyft had become widespread in the interim, but also because a number of players repeatedly stated they didn't trust that it was truly confidential and worried that any uses of the program would get reported back to the team, regardless of what they were doing/why they were using it.

I 100% get wanting to race but even in my 20s I was worried about hurting bystanders

That's incredibly stupid. Why would the NFLPA report back to a team on player conduct?

I don't subscribe to many conspiracy theories but the "random drug test that's totally just a coincidence and in no way in part that we may have gotten wind of something that may or may not have happened" is certainly one I would raise an eyebrow on. Like, billionaire owners getting all wannabe James Bond with the drivers of that service does not require me to stretch my imagination like at all. It would be clumsy but the small number of conspirators needed makes me think it's true. Or at least plausible enough that were I a player I'd be like hell no I'm taking that shuttle after the night I just had

Yeah, I can believe that the majority of cases where the service is used would be without incident. All it takes is those fringe cases though where a player does something like get sloshed or even something minor like asking the driver to take a detour to get fast food instead of going directly to training camp and somehow it just happens to get back to the team owner/head coach/whoever.

the nflpa voluntarily surrendered unilateral player discipline for conduct to the commissioner with no collective bargaining involved, and have no hope of ever regaining a say over it in the future. gently caress no I wouldn't trust them not to gently caress me over to the owners.

Is that something we should be concerned about? We’re not sure we can give you the contract length we talked about before and the signing bonus is gonna be cut in half” sort of bullshit. But yeah, it generally boiled down to players not trusting the NFLPA and the companies they partnered with to keep usage truly confidential, even if it was totally innocent/mundane poo poo and not being picked up from their secret boyfriend, stopping to buy yeyo on the street, and then being dropped off at their secret girlfriends place. Plus, they started the program before stuff like Uber and Lyft were available nationally, and a lot of players probably just use that instead.

Internet detectives are out in force on this thing because it's weird. The guy driving the Corvette, which is the car in Rice's name, is definitely not Rice. But the question remains if Rice is the one driving the Lambo SUV. Also one very unsubstantiated report that the guys pulled "guns and bags" out of the car before leaving. Did they really? Or is that just...Texas Assumption from a witness.

Which is funny in its own way because Uber has been busted a bunch of times for tracking celebrities and showing their real time location on company dashboards during parties and poo poo. If you’re after privacy and discretion that’s not the company you want to be dealing with

Drag racing on public streets and driving like an rear end in a top hat in a way that gets people killed regularly should at minimum disqualify someone from ever having a license again.
