All the details from Z-Bo's case ...

he's lucky, imo

This might put the old adedge "any PR is good PR" to the test. Pretty sordid stuff. But with this as the evidence, I don't see the case having any legs to stand on and understand why it was dropped.

I'm sure that those who enjoy having Canzano push their indignant fan buttons can't wait for tomorrow's article.

Good call by the DA's office . . . no way were they going to prove force or no consent beyond a reasonable doubt.

That scene is not pretty, but not nearly as bad as Canzano made it out to be. I don't understand how Canzano can tee off on the Zach like he did. The female has credibility issues, was intoxicated at the time, had motive to fabricate and her version is not cooberated by anyone in the room.

I'm not saying she wasn't raped or had sex against her will . . . I'm just shocked that Canzano takes the position he does given those facts. That was basically a sex fest gone bad . . . how bad only those in the room will know.

But to me, this confirms the idea someone raised that Canzano is on some powertrip to try and run players out of town.

I feel like I just watched a low-grade porn movie after reading that. Yuck, and don't read it if you're offended by x-reated scenes (uh, seriously). Sex acts for money gone bad, definitely, but impossible to tell whether anything actual criminal happened. We can only hope that the women can get their lives straightened out and that Randolph can learn to live like a man instead of like a video character.

This is also a good reminder of why I don't really want to know much about the lives of celebrities, but enjoy their performances for what they are.

That sounds about right. Zach seriously needs to get his act together, whether it be hanging out with a new crowd or just realizing that this is embarassing to him, the team, the organization, and the fans.

If Zach can't behave like a man, then it's probably time to get rid of him.
Even if what happened in the report was true or not, he still got himself into this bad situation.

Disgusting and repulsive behavior, yes. But not criminal. DA mad a good call, but Zack confirmed himself as a scumbag. His buddy says they share sex partners all the time. Either I'm getting to freakin old, or that is totally unacceptable behavior.

It's difficult to trust or believe any of them, including the alleged victim. Zach, woman A, woman B, his barber, all of them sound like peas in a pod, living the life of their choosing. It sounds like if he'd paid her the $500 (chump change from a chump) in the first place, he wouldn't be in this mess. Let them take their pissing match elsewhere. I frankly don't care about any of them.

And I care even less about Canzano and his self appointed moral leadership.

I guess I'm glad, as a Blazer fan, that the DA isn't pressing charges, if for no other reason than that we can avoid yet another round of "Jail Blazers" BS reportage, but this definitely doesn't make Zach sound like a very nice guy.

Here's hoping that Z-Bo comes out the gates playing great this season -- averages 23 and 12, or something along those lines -- and that, simultaneously, Aldridge impresses in practice, thereby making Zach both valuable and expendable. Then pull the trigger on a nice trade.

I just don't think this is the guy we want to build around. But we need to make damn sure that we get something good for him when we send him packing. Not Wes Person, for example.

Who would name there daughter's A or B. I would never name my son MAN. Zach's not bad or evil, he's just dumb!

I believe this one has been locked...cannot seem to copy any text...someone might be able to snapshot it and save it as a jpeg though. Sorry I don't have the time to try that.

Exactly. Morality dished from Canzano is hypocrisy.

sa1177

Certainly true, but their can be no arguing with the Police report. While reading it I for one certainly questioned Zach's moral terpitude.
