Burrow's a team captain, coach's son, and had a squeaky clean image. Would you call him a choir boy? Ja'Marr?
I damn sure take these rosters over the lawless Marvin Lewis ones ..... jus' sayin'.

The guy above brought up Willie (along with TJ), so I weighed in on an ex-Bengal whose opinion I actually still trust.
You then proceeded to “LaUgH oUT loUD jORdAn pALmER sUCked!”
Which I said was weird given his standing around the league. That’s it. That’s all that happened. There was no “ad hominem attack” or whatever.
Maybe too much Pappy led to a misunderstanding.

Nah, Burrow is a dog. See him fighting Queen at LSU, the tire drill at OSU, etc. I don’t consider him a choir boy at all.
And Ja’Marr definitely isn’t.

Being a Choir Boy more means how you live you life as a human being. He's a kind, generous person who lives from all appearances a life within the rules. That doesn't mean he's not a dog. I've seen some choir boys who can flat @#$ a guy up on an athletic field, on the streets, or in a war zone.

This is a really dumb thing to argue over lol
Anyway, Joe is not a choirboy in the way I define it. Buddy has swimsuit models “working” at his house lol. He goes on cussing tirades on the sideline. He’s got an edge to him.

I've always understood choir boy to be an insult. Kind of like a coward.

Contrary to popular belief, all opinions are not created equal.

People will have a negative spin for anything. They hate choir boys and hate thugs, quiet guys don't care, loud guys are divas, they hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool and so on.
People are full of shit and they're never satisfied

Exactly my point.....you can get high character, intelligent captain types who are absolute dogs. Headcases give you 2016 Stooler meltdowns. Not one dumbass reaction to Shitsburgh with these guys.

So, has there been any more local news on this? What I've taken from the thread so far is that he was evicted for not paying rent and may have assaulted his GF.

I was about to ask why this thread was still relevant.

Sure but with the fashion sense of a blind pimp.....

I've heard that was he late to the flight/bus for Pitt. I've also heard he was dressed crazy again, but nothing really credible at this point.

More details on the alleged Burton assault.
Link.
TL;DR - Burton and girlfriend got into an argument. He followed her home, hit her and choked her, and then held a knife to his own neck threatening to kill himself. Allegedly.

Jones problem is he can't stay healthy long enough to make much impact. Nice to have a good punt returner, better to have an available good punt returner.
Burton needs to grow up which is not a coaching issue. It's a borderline criminal issue.
