It amazes me when they do things lie this. For instance Dhani Jones has been available several times when we've needed linebackers, and they never picked him up. Doss just the same way.

They give the appearance of avoiding these players, and then the next day turn around and sign them.

Watch him be good though.

He's a great character guy after all!

That's because they suck, and no other teams wanted them either.

I mean wow. I know people jump your case for offering little of value, but jeez, maybe they're right.

Doss has been a very good player and could be again. But felony gun charges and injuries have derailed that.

With Dhani it was his own effort, with his other "ventures." Point is he's serviceable, no one can debate that.

Resume Check....I guess this was never done......

dated June 6, 2005:

AKRON, Ohio -- Indianapolis Colts safety Mike Doss was sentenced Monday to 40 hours of community service and ordered to pay $1,036 in fines and court costs for a gunfire incident in Akron, according to the office of the Akron municipal court clerk.

Doss pleaded guilty to charges of carrying a concealed deadly weapon and discharging a firearm within the city limits, ABC affiliate WEWS reported. Authorities said he fired up to six shots in the nightclub district of downtown Akron on May 29, injuring no one.

Doss also was given a suspended 180-day jail sentence for the deadly weapon charge and a suspended 60-day jail sentence for the discharge count. He won't have to serve the jail terms if he stays out of trouble for one year, the clerk's office said.

Yeah, you're right, Doss just wasn't signed by anyone because no other team in the league lost safeties to injury.

Great point.

Dhani is shit.

How do you know this ?

[quote]Harrison was never charged in the April 29 shooting, which occurred after he and Dixon exchanged blows near an auto-repair shop that Harrison owns on Thompson Street near 25th, according to police sources.

The case is still considered an open investigation, said Assistant District Attorney Christopher Diviny.

Although Harrison, 36, admitted to members of Central Detectives that he had been in the fight, he insisted that he had nothing to do with the shooting, the sources said.

His handlers maintained his innocence during the ensuing media firestorm.

The case eventually stopped generating headlines, and Harrison returned to his lucrative day job as a wide receiver for the Indianapolis Colts.

But over time, the investigation uncovered evidence that seemed to point in Harrison's direction:

* Harrison and Dixon squabbled for two weeks before the shooting after they exchanged words in Playmakers, a bar on 28th Street near Cambridge that Harrison owns.

* Ballistics tests proved shell casings found at the shooting scene had been fired from Harrison's gun, a Belgian-made FN5.7, law-enforcement sources said.

* Detectives found the firearm in Harrison's garage on Thompson Street.

* Witnesses and Dixon separately identified Harrison as the shooter, the sources said.[/quote]


[quote]Shooting Victim Suing Marvin Harrison

Matt SnyderPosted Oct 8th 2008 1:30PM by Matt Snyder (author feed)
Filed under: Colts, AFC South, NFL Police Blotter
Dwight Dixon, victim of an April 29th shooting in Philadelphia, is suing Colts star receiver Marvin Harrison.

The bare bones, if you remember, are that Harrison and Dixon were involved in an altercation ... and a bit later Dixon wound up shot with a gun owned by Harrison. Harrison has not been charged, but the case is still open. Harrison himself has admitted that he was in a fight with the victim, and that he did own the gun used in the shooting. He also maintains he wasn't the shooter.

On the surface, it looks like Harrison did something wrong, at the very least. His gun was used to shoot another person. Anyway you slice it, outside theft -- though Harrison never said his gun was stolen -- is bad. On the flip-side, he still hasn't been charged with a crime, and that's a long time without a charge in such a high-profile case.

Further clouding matters is the fact that at first Dixon told police he was wounded while driving, only to later change his story and accuse Harrison of the shooting.

Here are the claims of the plaintiff:

Dixon claims "serious and permanent injuries ... and a severe shock to his nerves and nervous system," according to the lawsuit. He is seeking more than $100,000 in damages.

The lawsuit claims that Harrison "intentionally and outrageously shot" Dixon, although another part of the document says Dixon could have been shot by someone else using Harrison's gun.

"Look, it's our position that Marvin Harrison was the shooter," Robert M. Gamburg, Dixon's attorney, told the paper.

"But even if you believe the other theory, Marvin's gun was still used in the shooting, so he was negligent for leaving the weapon where someone else could obtain it."

I'll allow readers to draw their own conclusions. I wasn't there and don't know anything about Harrison or Dixon personally. And remember, football fans, neither do the majority of you.[/quote]

[quote]MARVIN HARRISON SUED FOR SHOOTING
Posted by Mike Florio on October 8, 2008, 10:57 a.m. EDT

Though the possibility of criminal charges apparently has evaporated like water in a wash bucket that also contains a Belgian gun, Colts receiver Marvin Harrison has been sued by the man who was shot in April by the weapon that Harrison owns, according to David Gambacorta of the Philadelphia Daily News.

“The defendant intentionally and outrageously shot the plaintiff,” asserts the civil complaint filed by David Dixon.

We’re confused by this development, given past reports that Harrison wasn’t charged criminally for the shooting because the victims (Dixon and a young bystander struck by flying glass) had been “less than fully cooperative.”

Well, one of them is talking a blue streak now, Jack.

“Look, it’s our position that Marvin Harrison was the shooter,” Dixon’s lawyer said.

Actually, Dixon initially told police that he had been wounded while driving in West Philadelphia. Dixon then recanted and said that Harrison shot him. As a result of the flip-flop, Dixon has been charged with making a false report to police. (It’s unclear at this point which report the police regard to be false; perhaps it doesn’t matter.)

As the civil litigation unfolds, Harrison will eventually be required to testify under oath at a deposition. But Harrison notoriously avoids speaking to the media (or, possibly, to anyone). Moreover, he could invoke the Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination, which would protect him from a prosecution but which would be the kiss of death for the civil suit, during which the assertion of the Fifth Amendment rights would be admissible at trial, prompting most reasonable jurors to conclude that Harrison did it.

This development also cries out for a full explanation from the authorities in Philly regarding the failure to file charges against Harrison, given that the guy who was on the wrong end of the gun Harrison owns says that Harrison was the shooter.[/quote]


[quote]On Friday it was reported that the gun fire was exchanged after Harrison chased a man into the parking lot of his bar. Now it appears that the shooting took place several blocks away.

Harrison is now said to have kicked the victim out of his bar 2 weeks ago, and they have been fighting since. Harrison admitted to getting into a fist fight with the man earlier in the day.[/quote]
