Tyrann Mathieu is Living With Patrick Peterson’s Family in South Florida

While LSU and Alabama are deciding the fate of the SEC this weekend, former Tiger All-American Tyrann Mathieu is spending time in South Florida trying to get his life back together.
According to the Palm Beach Post, the Heisman finalist, who was arrested last week on drug charges, is currently living with former Tiger and current Arizona Cardinal cornerback Patrick Peterson’s family.
“He wanted to get away from the madness in Baton Rouge,” said Pat Lawler, a Boca Raton lawyer and agent for Galaxy Sports. “His mindset is to deal with his problems and get his life in order. He and his family are looking at getting Tyrann back together.”
Mathieu and Peterson became good friends during their year together in the LSU secondary, and as a successful NFL player, it would be good for Mathieu to understand life outside of the bubble he’s been living in in Baton Rouge and New Orleans.

Is he eligible to enter the supplemental draft? Or did that already happen?
November 2nd, 2012 at 12:52 PM
There’s a weed and Wonderlic joke to be made here, I’m too lazy to think. So I’ll just go with sad.
November 2nd, 2012 at 12:53 PM
Cant wait for the 30 for 30 on this!
November 2nd, 2012 at 12:53 PM
Good job, good effort, Shamburger.
November 2nd, 2012 at 12:55 PM
If three years have passed after his HS graduation, he’s eligible for the regular draft in 2013. Supplemental was this past summer.
November 2nd, 2012 at 12:55 PM
Just put him on the Bengals already.
November 2nd, 2012 at 12:56 PM
Hmm, for some reason* I thought it was during the season. In that case, assuming he is old enough, couldn’t he sign as a free agent?
*more than likely because I’m an idiot
November 2nd, 2012 at 12:58 PM
Pretty sure you have to ‘clear’ one draft before signing as a FA. He’d have to declare for supp. and not be taken, or for reg draft and go undrafted, then would be a FA.
/or not
November 2nd, 2012 at 12:59 PM
So the process is different than the NBA, where a few years ago a player signed with the Knicks* immediately after his college season finished?
*I think
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:00 PM
No, wait, that was hockey. I remember it was a BC player.
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:01 PM
Fuck the NHL. Die Bettman die.
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:01 PM
Just put him on the Bengals already.
Remember when some commenters here tried to say that he was better than Manti T’eo?
/checks spreadsheet
//it’s not really a meme
///Oh, well
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:02 PM
Well that was (in the NHL) because he was drafted, and once you go 3 years after being drafted, the team loses your rights, I think.
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:03 PM
No, wait, that was hockey. I remember it was a BC player.
No, it happened in the NBA, too. It was somebody from Kentucky that had been declared ineligible.
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:05 PM
OK, so either way the player did go through the draft process, and was thus a FA. Got it.

Switching from weed to cocaine.

Nate Silver addresses the criticism and explains his rationale in both stunning simplicity and great detail. Figured this was definitely worth posting for the crew in here.
Now, back to golf and hockey talk

November 2nd, 2012 at 1:08 PM
Either way, you have to go through a draft, I think.
I think you are confusing two situations.
In one, Chris Kreider was drafted by the Rangers, kept playing for BC, then signed for the playoff run when the season ended. He went through a draft and the drafting team signed him.
Justin Schultz was drafted by Anaheim, then went to Wisconsin, where they kept his rights I think but was unable to come to a deal. When he left school, because of some rule with the time that had passed and unable to come to deal still, he became a UFA and signed with Edmonton.

I had chipotle for lunch yesterday and craving it again. Damn you for making delicious burritos!

//immediately starts beating memes into the ground
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:09 PM
Randolph Morris. He declared for the draft in 2005 (went undrafted) but exercised his option to go back to school. When Kentucky’s season ended in 2007 he was allowed to sign as a free agent because the CBA did not allow him to re-enter the draft since he had already been draft-eligible. Now he’s in China and the NCAA no longer allows guys to come back to school once they’ve declared.
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:10 PM
Or is that Heel…
/shit
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:10 PM
Well, I figure after two days I’ll have taken apart all my electronic devices, and thus won’t participate in future memes.
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:12 PM
Had coffee and chicken biscuit from Chic-Fil-A this morning. Now I have to use the bathroom. I’m going to hold it til I go home around 5:30. I hate pooping in public bathroom.

Awesome ingredients, but the one near me has no idea how to construct a burrito. it’s shaped like a football and I’ll have 2 straight bites of nothing but guac and then no guac in the rest of the burrito.
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:14 PM
I’m eating taco salad again.
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:15 PM
Stop talking about mexican food. My stomach is already doing a somersault. I might just poop as I am typi…….
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:15 PM
Homemade lasagna. I miss Chick-fil-A food, but I’m trying to avoid going, since most of the city has made going there a rallying cry for ‘saving family’. All I want is a chicken fucking sandwich and a shake. God I want a peach milkshake so fucking bad.
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:17 PM

Dude, why the ….? what happened? Did you go?
/misses obvious jokes guy
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:18 PM
I get the burrito bowl for tht reason…a shitty constructed burrito takes away the goodness. Also I believe you get more in a bowl than the burrito.
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:18 PM
Fuck that. When it’s touching cloth, I’ll go anywhere. Especially the chipotle shits.
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:18 PM
Oh good. We’ve been looking for one of those ever since ATL_Engager left.
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:18 PM
Last time I went they didn’t have it as a flavor anymore, I was furious.
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:18 PM
I miss Chick-fil-A food,
I don’t get the love for ChikFilA. Ash chicken sandwiches go it’s not any better than Wendy’s and it’s more greasy than Whataburger.
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:19 PM
That fart brought some turtle head along with the ride.

He’s still around and using two different commenter names. And fucking toddlers.
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:19 PM
TBL, please change the Tebow picture up top. Anytime I go to homepage, that’s the first thing that loads. I’m convinced the woman sitting behind me thinks I’m gay.
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:19 PM
Burrito bowl at QDoba with chips on the side. Love Chipotle, but burrito bowls are just rice salad if they don’t have queso.
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:21 PM
They had banana shakes the one time I went. I don’t know how they can hate gays but then encourage people to suck on a banana.
/hates banana-flavored anything
//except bananas

I wish someone would come up with a frozen banana stand chain.

Man, if she sees that picture she’s gonna think that even more.
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:27 PM
i could eat chik fil a every day of the week and twice on sunday, if they were open on sunday.

No he’s not. ??? Ironic WWOS didn’t pick up on this obvious development though.
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:28 PM
White power Bill, Franklin, Bob Loblaw, Kitty, Doctor Fishman. Just some of the characters I’m hoping to see on new Arrested Development season. I just hope Lucille Austero isn’t there. Scene killer, that woman is.

Gonna make for an uncomfortable afternoon

I actually did know that. I just couldn’t think of any former commenter names who clearly missed jokes. Besides me, but that wouldn’t be as fun.

Though I was the only one

Someone else is using the Pennypacker name.
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:33 PM
frozen bananas suck. best way to eat those is cut up and dipped in melted chocolate
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:34 PM
Is “Green Bay FudgePacker” name taken? I’m asking for a friend.
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:38 PM
I just assumed he was talking about the frozen bananas that come on a stick already dipped in chocolate.. mmmmmm
November 2nd, 2012 at 1:40 PM
There’s probably money in those banana stands.

I don’t think this is a thing of mine. You have me confused with someone else.
November 2nd, 2012 at 2:03 PM
I just assumed he was talking about the frozen bananas that come on a stick already dipped in chocolate.. mmmmmm
doesn;t matter to me if they’re cut up or on a stick, which is what i thought he meant in the first place. in my experience, freezing them takes away taste and makes them hard to eat
