I couldn't believe that Brett wanted to play with this man. I am SO glad they didn't get him. He's talented, yes, but oh, the drama.

I'm no huge Moss fan but....I don't know. From what I have heard and looking at the situation it really sounds like someone trying to extort money to me. I mean this happened on 1/6...how come there are no police charges against Moss? How come he wasn't arrested for questioning?
A restraining order isn't that hard to get.
Also look at the timing...right during the playoff push, right when Moss would most want the issue to "go away". This is not some floozy though, he's known the girl for 12 years. Still it all seems a little fishy to me.
Moss may have done something inappropriate here but the whole situation doesn't pass the smell test and I will give him the benefit of the doubt until some good hard facts come out.

PRC, while I agree 100% w/you, I do think Moss is being targeted, the point is this is what comes with Moss. It's part of the package. It doesn't matter if he's telling the truth or not. He will always end up being a distraction no matter how good he is, because he's Randy Moss. I'm pretty sure that's a big reason Thompson didn't want to part with more than a second day pick for the guy.
