Deion Sanders Also Charged with Assault Following Incident That Landed His Wife in Jail

All, Legal, NFL retirees Stephen Douglas April 25th. 2012, 1:29pm

Pilar Sanders, the wife of Deion Sanders, spent Monday night in jail following a domestic dispute at the home the estranged couple is sharing. Deion tweeted that his children had witnessed Pilar and her friend attack Prime Time. After further investigation, police decided to also charge Deion with assault. From the LA Times:

No details were released about the allegations, but a Prosper police spokesman said the new charge applies to any act that could be considered aggressive, including something as simple as a touch or jerking away from someone’s grip.

The charge carries a fine of up to $500, officials said.

Well, at least we know that Deion can afford the fine. Perhaps they should stop living together. I know their house is really big, but assault charges are much more likely if you’re going to run into each other in the grand hallway. [LA Times]

The fact that this idiot and Michael Irvin are on the NFLN is really amazing. There aren’t any other ex-jocks who could fill their roles?

Asante Samuel traded to the Falcons. Samuel has restructured his deal. 6.3 mil a year.

I don’t think he was traded. I read it as “agreed to terms with Atlanta”

From what I’ve seen, when the cops come out on a domestic dispute call & it’s “he said/she said”, somebody’s gonna get charged. When the cop doesn’t know for sure (no obvious proof either party assaulted the other), more often than not the assumption is the man is at fault.
Of course it isn’t fair. My ex tried to pull that on me, but I diffused it. In the end, she’s the one who had to GTFO.
“Boom, daddy”, as it were.

He agreed therefore he can now be traded for a 5th rounder I believe.

Now Atlanta can go DL or OL, whichever has the best prospect, in the 2nd round and grab a RB or TE in the third.

I would love Dwayne Allen to be there in the third, but I don’t know if that will happen. I’d be even happier if the DL from Marshall would be there in the 2nd. ATL desperately needs pass rushers as Abraham is too old and Ray Edwards is a Robin-type player. He can’t dominate without a better option on the other side of the line.

If the Lions don’t draft a CB in the 1st round or somehow Janoris drops to them in the 2nd I’ll be pissed.

They were both charged.
But, based on yeserday’s post, “he said he was innocent”. Which ties into the round-about point I weakly attempted to make. He was charged, but may actually have been innocent.
Not looking for dispute with you. I’m just jonesin’ for continuity up in here.
Also, happy anniversary to you and your betrothed.

Pilar was released from police custody on bail Tuesday night.
“I am innocent,” she said in a statement Tuesday, the Examiner reported. “I understand that I have a very little chance at beating a Hall of Fame, two-sport man that everyone seems to love and adore. I am a full-time mom 100 percent for my children and I have just not gotten a fair shake.”

Yeah…I get the Ryan bashing to an extent, but they can win a super bowl with Ryan. But to do that they have to get a better defense. This helps that. They still desperately need a legit pass rusher though, and until they get one I don’t think they’ll do anything more than 9-7, 10-6. I want them to upgrade at RB, but they have to upgrade at LT before they do anything else on offense, but where they’re picking I’m not sure they can get one.

I was halfway kidding about QB. I think Mularkey ruined that offense last year with his retarded play calling and management of his game manager QB.
