Brian Banks doesn't make Atlanta Falcons cut
Story here. Brian Banks was falsely accused of rape. But now he has failed to secure a permanent spot on an NFL team due to lost years of training while in jail. I think men should go to such websites and post their support for Brian as a statement of compassion. We men do not bond well and this could be an opportunity to show some compassion. Maybe even find a way to email him directly. Excerpt:
'The NFL dreams of Brian Banks, who was exonerated last year after being wrongfully convicted of rape, were cut short when he failed to earn a spot on the Atlanta Falcons' 53-man roster, according to the football team's website.
Banks got the ax on Friday along with 10 other players, the Atlanta Falcons reported. The 28-year-old rookie linebacker had been signed to the team as a free agent in April, and had said playing in the pre-season was "one of the best moments of my life."
Banks said on Thursday that he had been "fully consumed trying to make this team," but that it was difficult given "all the years that I missed out on football."'
