Would Peterman have believed Shaw's hero story?

Didn't Lambo make up a story about somebody hurting his leg... and the truth later came out that the kid hurt it running away from a fight at a frat party by jumping off a balcony.

Yup... Shehee jumped off a frat balcony & Lambo tried to cover it up.

LOL, I was there...ranks up there with the Lester Towns injury

Not a UW story but Brandon Marshall "slipping on a McDonalds bag" and putting his arm through a TV was pretty rich too.

I don't really think it is a case about believing or not believing. It is about verifying what happened. He didn't come up and say he injured himself playing hoops or doing something stupid drunk (like jumping from a balcony). Those are the kind of things you give a player the benefit of the doubt... they were doing something stupid and they hurt themselves.

When someone says they jumped from a 3rd floor onto the concrete to save their nephew from a pool at 10 PM at night then you need to verify that, especially if you decide to release it to the public.

I don't really understand why we have to believe people's shitty stories just because it hasn't been proved otherwise. A player shows up to practice with busted up knuckles and says he fought off a couple robbers trying to steal a grandma's purse is that something we just believe too because that player hasn't given us a reason not to believe him?

This story was retarded from the get go. I was in the Jim Rome camp in that nothing about it made sense at all.
