The other thread is a dumpster fire. I'm sure this will become one as well, but might as well start with a clean slate. I'll at least try to keep the OP updated with any notable news. Feel free to PM me if I miss anything good.
Arrest warrant and potential charges:
Spoiler!
BREAKING: An arrest warrant has been issued for Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice in connection to his involvement in a multi-vehicle crash on U.S. 75 in Dallas in late March, sources tell WFAA. https://t.co/XL3F7oCuW1

Collision involving injury carries a penalty of imprisonment in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice for not more than five years or confinement in the county jail for not more than one year, a fine fine not to exceed $5,000 or both. Collision involving serious bodily injury -- a third-degree felony -- carries a punishment of imprisonment in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice of not more than 10 years or less than 2 years. Aggravated assault -- a second-degree felony -- is punishable by two to 20 years in prison and a fine of up to $10,000.
TL;DR, his concern was at a 2, and now it's a 4 (out of 10). Still probably not a huge deal, but there are some concerning possibilities. Overall, though, he thinks it all gets pled down to misdemeanors, he misses a couple of games, and he writes some massive checks to those he injured.

#Chiefs Patrick Mahomes said he's worked with Rashee Rice throughout the offseason and will continue to do so while the legal process plays out for Rice..

Please don’t draw out the conversation any further.
Crestfallen huh? Is somebody using their word of the day toilet paper? J/K.
Nah I’m just pointing out it’s not nearly as difficult to deal with problems and with some level of reasonableness. But feel free to put me on ignore if that bothered you. [Reply]

I have no one on ignore and my word-of-the-day calendar is from 1986.
CP isn’t easy or simplistic. Feel free to leave if you’re feeling overcensored. No one is compelling you to stick around and argue with the mods with a limited post count. [Reply]

I won’t draw out this conversation here in this thread so as to try not to derail it any further, but since you commented on it like I said there is zero consistency with this. You decide to boot me from the Clark thread because I take issue with the Lebron apologist suggesting Clark is a ball hog like Jordan while some of the same things go on this thread or other threads where posters continue to spew out crap over and over and over and nothings done. Had I known he only engages in unending arguments that tries to support his POV no matter how flawed I would have reconsidered. But even still a quick message even if it was a warning would have been sufficient. Chaos thrives where there is no consistency or rules.
You can kind of throw your hands up in the air like you did here acting like where do you draw the line. But it’s not as hard as you seem to insinuate. There can be murky situations yes but all that needs to be done is establish a series of consequences that are to be followed in sequential order for when problems come up. No different than what a teacher does in a classroom. Or continue to do nothing and keep getting what you’re getting. And for those repeat problem posters you establish a different set of criteria for when the “regular rules” don’t work again no different than what a teacher has to do with difficult students who the regular rules don’t work for.

Don't play dumb now.
And on top of that, you say rules and consequences are easy and then you're all confused as to why your 10 posts baiting KCC into shit about Lebron James didn't warrant a warning... in a thread about WCBB and Clark.
Pick one, because that's the 2nd clearest reason there is to boot people out of a thread after political bullshit.
For all the bickering here and so forth, at least it's mostly on topic.
Here's a link to the FAQ... you can throw your hands up in the air like you did here acting like where do we draw the line, but it's not as hard as you seem to insinuate.
Listen while I appreciate your response and especially your gif, would you care to continue a conversation in pm. I said I wouldn’t continue in this thread but would like to get some additional clarification and to have a question or so answered. Since you are the one that made the decision to boot me it would be best if I could get that information from you [Reply]

Oh my lawd, you poor poor thing. You should probably just leave forever so you're never treated like this again. [Reply]

Bearcat doesn't have time to continue this conversation through PMs. Hit me up. I'm pretty much known as the guy that gets shit done around here. [Reply]

OK that seals it. People that bitch about the mods are gay as shit. [Reply]
Mods on here are top tier 99% of the time. Idk if you guys are on any other forums but those bengals ones are modded by the biggest pussies ever. It’s a thankless job and our team really does a nice job of adhering to the understood standard. [Reply]

"Radical" means something totally different now. So does "bitchin"...

I agree with this 100% of the time.
I only brought it up because we're on Version 2 of this thread and we're still having the same dumb conversation. But I guess that is just part of CP you have to live with sometimes. [Reply]
Assuming the victims have not suffered major lifelong injuries, Rice deserves around 1.5 to 2 years of actual time served in a low security jail where nonviolent criminals go and another 1-2 years of probation where he has to visit schools and warn kids about the dangers of acting like an idiot behind the wheel.
I don't think the NFL should punish Rice especially if the state of Texas puts him in jail for an adequate amount of time. He isn't OJ Simpson or Aaron Hernandez but what he did could easily get 4-5 people killed and/or disabled for life.
Two things about this case are really egregious. High speed racing against another car on public roads and leaving the scene of an accident. If you let someone get away with those two things without some noteworthy jail time, you may as well not have traffic laws at all. [Reply]
