Cris Carter in hot water for telling rookies to "have a fall guy"

This is from last year, but apparently now just coming to light. It was on the NFL's website.

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...ve-a-fall-guy/

Quote:
Cris Carter urged NFL rookies to have a “fall guy”
Posted by Michael David Smith on August 23, 2015, 4:39 PM EDT

A recent ESPN feature on former 49ers linebacker Chris Borland described Borland as “appalled” by what he heard at the 2014 Rookie Symposium, when a former NFL player told the rookies that they should have a “fall guy” in their crew who would take the blame if they faced legal trouble. What ESPN failed to mention is that the former player who gave that appalling advice was an ESPN employee, Cris Carter.

Although the ESPN feature says that Borland “declined to name” the player, the writers easily could have identified Carter as the source of the comments, because the video of Carter’s presentation at the Rookie Symposium is available at NFL.com.

The presentation went basically how Borland described it in the ESPN feature: Carter told rookies that they should have one friend who will be willing to take the blame if they ever get into trouble. Warren Sapp, onstage along with Carter, agreed.

“If you all got a crew, you got to have a fall guy in the crew,” Carter said. “If you all have a crew, one of those fools got to know, he’s the one going to jail. We’ll get him out.”

Sapp then repeated, “We’ll get him out.”

Those comments didn’t sit well with Borland, and they likely won’t sit well with most people hearing them now. But the NFL apparently didn’t have a problem with what Carter said: His presentation was posted on the league’s own website, and Carter was invited back to speak at this year’s Rookie Symposium.

UPDATE 5:23 p.m. ET: Shortly after we posted this item, NFL.com removed the video.
Someone uploaded a clip of the video with their cell phone. Teddy Bridgewater gets used as the example. I can't believe the NFL had this on their website.

That was just for show.

The clear message here is "This is how I turned my career around - I got a 'fall guy' in MN. You can be a POS, no one cares because you can play and make $$. Have some destitute POS from your crew with nothing to live for take the fall. You gotta keep ballin'...gnomesaine?"

Shocking, but a $20k payoff might not seem adequate to a guy serving 2 years with unwanted manseggs...

It wouldn't begin to be adequate.

Yeah, but CC and Sapp are more along the lines of the average NFL player - these kids will relate to CC and Sapp. They're ghetto trash.

Will Shields uses complete sentences and proper grammar. He's too "white".

Plus, he never has to use a fall guy.

We lived in Mexican town, close to Calumet. I didn't associate with too many folks...

A couple thoughts:

This thread was never about race until Demonpenz and Hootie decided to make it about race.

Those of you agreeing with CC's message, would you give your own children the same message?

Loochy has been killing it in this thread.

Even when he was in the WWF.
