Francisco Rodriguez Fights Father-In-Law, Gets Arrested

PrintI don't even know what this means, but I guess it happened tonight.
K-Rod in altercation in family lounge, physically removed by security.
I have no idea who the altercation was with, what it was over, or what the repercussions will be, but I like to think it involved Rodriguez strangling Jerry Manuel Homer-Simpson-style for passing him over in lieu of Manny Acosta in the top of the eighth tonight.
More as it gets leaked to Twitter.
Update: Rodriguez apparently got into a fight with his father-in-law. Well, we've all been there, sister.
Update #2: Even though it may not reflect actual events, if someone wouldn't mind MSPainting Frankie choking Jerry onto a picture of Homer choking Bart, well that might just make my night.
Update #3: The Mets have issued a statement.
"There was an incident between Francisco Rodriguez and his family tonight at the ballpark. He was questioned by police and all other questions pertaining to this incident will be referred to the police department."
Best game ever!
Update #4: Frankie might've been arrested.
Update #5: Per Ken Davidoff, a police spokesman has said that Rodriguez "will be charged with third-degree assault for attacking his father-in-law."
Update #6: You're welcome.
Update #7: The Daily News has a photo of an unidentified man presumed to be the father-in-Rod being taken away from Citi Field on a stretcher. He's sitting up, though. Seems fine. Not really interesting or newsworthy. We should all be asleep, but instead, this.

I don't blame him for getting upset
SNY said he asked reporters to leave him alone tonight so they did but then Burkhardt approached him and he lashed with a " why do i have to talk to you guys today, i didn’t even pitch ". He’s right coz you know they were just gonna ask him if he wanted to pitch with hope that he would say something crazy. There was no need to talk to him, Manuel sure, but not k-rod.
And that excuses him from beating the shit out of his own father??

Correct...
This is the usual situation. Same with the comment below. If actual violence occurred, then the police would have been there then. The “referred to police” line is probably just a matter of saying “he’s outside, it’s not our problem anymore.”

I find all this high dudgeon about it a little odd
He was (we’re assuming) pissed about the game, then this guy who probably annoys the hell out of him anyway got in his face, and they had a little set-to. Where I come from, a guy occasionally throwing a punch because somebody pissed him off is just not that big a deal.

It was by far his worst album
I only listened to it once so maybe if I play it again it’ll grow, but it sounded way too mainstream for my liking.
Only mainstream song was "Love The Way You Lie" and I hate that song.
I cant consider anything mainstream about that album. Except for maybe “Not Afraid” but thats a great song. I think it might be his best album. Just dont tell me you liked Encore or Relapse better. Encore was terrible, and Relapse was bad.

I think I said those things already when I typed
“It was by far his worst album.” I thought both Encore are Relapse were far better than Recovery. I enjoyed both of them quite a bit. “Not Afraid” is terrible, his worst first single yet. Seriously, his best album? Seriously? Literally every song on Slim Shady LP, Marshal Mathers LP, and Eminem Show is better than the best song on Recovery. Em is one of my favorite rappers, but you’re gonna start to lose your skills when you rapping with such “talents” as Drake and Lil’ Wayne on a regular basis.
Im not crazy about his collabs either but
Encore and Relapse were both terrible albums. He even said that the fans deserve better. He was on drugs. Now hes clean and make some friggin mean rhymes.
And about the collabs I think he does it just to show how much better he is than the other rapper. See No Love.

That song is one of those unlistenable ones Gina mentioned
But he was also on drugs when he did Slim Shady LP and probably Marshal Mathers LP. He’s better when he’s on drugs, just like the Beatles were.
just like everyone is
at least in the early/moderate stages of drug use
mediocrity thy name is Wilpon- jdon

there’s no way it’s better than the marshall mathers LP. I’ve heard about 4-5 songs and found them all completely unlistenable. Where as everything on the Marshall Mathers LP was gold.

Oh yeah, MM LP was he is best
I think Recoveyr is one of his best.

Morality clauses are sometimes limited to felonies...
To prevent DUIs from allowing the contract to be voided, among other things. Remember that a brawl on the field can lead to dozens of assault charges, if the law is strictly applied. And it rarely is.

Slugging your mother in law is indefensible...
Your father in law, I gotta think the jury is still out. And let’s remember that the Daily News said he didn’t, while the Post said he did. The Post is the more sensational and often wrong of the two, so I’m reserving judgment. Remember the rumors of a trade of some minor leaguers a few days ago, when it turned out to be the dumping of Cora. The news gets things wrong, and the Post is owned by Rupert Murdoch.
All I’m saying is be cool with this. We frankly have no idea what happened, and “assault” as a charge can be a misdemeanor push, or spitting on someone, or kicking someone’s dog if it’s on a leash (really, this is a law school example). It does not mean a punch, in fact it usually means not a punch because a true punch would be a battery charge.

Ok...
An ambulance can take someone out for a multitude of reasons. If someone has hit their head it can be for observation of a concussion. All I’m saying is that we should reserve judgment until we know what actually happened, not what we imagine happened.

Yeah see below.
One, it doesn’t mean anything what he’s charged with (the whole “til proven guilty” thing). Second, the police will arrest for misdemeanor assault for a lot of situations, to get someone booked while they investiage. Third, we know from expereince that athletes are under scrutiny and the cops will arrest just to make sure they are viewed as having done something. Was this arrest correct? Who knows? The point is to reserve judgment until the facts come out.

It can also mean nothing at all actually happened,
though I probably take innocent until proven guilty further than most.
Not further than me...
I think innocent until proven guilty and the beyond a reasonable doubt standard are among the most admirable things developed in the American system, and without which we can have no pride in our system. The protection of the accused until proven guilty is as central to me to pride in being American as anything else….

NY Penal code
A person is guilty of assault in the third degree when:
1. With intent to cause physical injury to another person, he causes
such injury to such person or to a third person; or
2. He recklessly causes physical injury to another person; or
3. With criminal negligence, he causes physical injury to another
person by means of a deadly weapon or a dangerous instrument.
Assault in the third degree is a class A misdemeanor.

Point 2 is the real question...
Was it reckless (i.e. he pushed him and the guy fell down) or intentional (he punched him in the face and he got punched in the face)? Or was it an unfortuante situation where someone got hurt and the police made the arrest to let everyone cool down?

Associated Press
NEW YORK — New York Mets reliever Francisco Rodriguez is in custody after what police called a “physical assault” on his father-in-law at Citi Field.
Police say Rodriguez will be charged with third-degree assault. Police say the pitcher hasn’t been arrested.
Police say the incident occurred after the Mets’ 6-2 loss to the Colorado Rockies on Wednesday night. Police say Rodriguez’s father-in-law is in the hospital with a scrape on his face and a bump on his head.
The Mets confirmed there was an incident between Rodriguez and his family, and referred all questions to the police.

Right....
Accusing someone of rape is really just an awful thing before they have been convicted. That she went to civil court means that she is going for a lower standard of proof. Not to say that he might not have done it, but it’s suspect from a criminal standpoint if the prosecutor decided not to charge based on a reasonable doubt standard. This whole assault thing going on here by some folks is also bad.
I agree with the “Mets are in ruins” comment to a degree. The rest is basically defamatory at this point, and even if not defamatory, indicative of special needs in the civic responsibility department.

My Point Is...That People Here Are Drawing Some Damaging and Uninformed Conclusions...
Someone charged with a crime is given the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise beyond a reasonable doubt. It is easy and morally satisfying to proclaim guilt based on a charge, even when media sources are not uniform as to whether someone has been charged. But it is also wrong. Media outlets hype charges unfairly often, even when the person is later found to not have been culpable. Reserve your judgment,. for fucks sake. Frustration at the Mets and K-Rod’s performance is no excuse for prematurely drawing any conclusions about what may have happened.

Boycott Mets
fellow Mets’ fans, it is time to boycott our team if they will not hold these players accountable for their behavior off the field. If they can make Piazza hold a press conference to say he is a heterosexual, Johan and K-Rod should be held to the same standard of accountability. Forget that management is a joke and the team is terrible yet again, but this is above and beyond what is acceptable. I call for a boycott.

In My World, There Is No Such Thing As Off-Topic!
My the father-in-law is a die hard mets fan
And was kvetching and moaning for the umpteenth time and krod went rogue. Like George Costanza’s dad berating Steinbreener about the Yankees

Tired. Though it would be awesome to have a father-in-law like that.

also third degree assault doesn't sound like something to serious
is it bad that I kind of wish he’d shoot himself in the leg so we could get out of the contract?

You rarely do time for it unless you have a long track record.
it’s a 3 months probation deal normally.
While I generally agree with MookietheCat about innocent till proven guilty
I would just like to point out that I’ve been calling KRod a douche all season long, to the point that people were asking on a thread why I thought he was a douche. So, screw KRod.
2009 Did Not Happen
The law does not make being a douche illegal...
So I will defer to your judgement… :)

The wimpons
don’t approve of negative media coverage(santana’s rape allegations/krod assault charge) if this goes badly they will look for a way to unload them in the off season.
theres a bit market for steeply overpriced closers
with ridiculous vesting options and an alleged anger problem? Spectacular, we’re gonna clean up this offseason.

Yeah it's the same as the
market for old slap hitting 2nd basemen with no knees and 12 million dollar headcases with no control and an 86 MPH fastball.
Should be an outstanding offseason.

yeah there probably is a market for those things
We’ll be buyers so they can show the fanbase they’re willing to spend

Just want to thank everyone for this thread
Today was looking quite boring until I started reading it. The other people in the law library are looking at me funny cause I keep sniggering. AA Win on this one

yea this one has been quite amusing
This may finally push the season from the catergory “bad” to the catergory “comically bad”.

So who wants to bet we go into the 9th inning today with a slim lead after a pitching gem by santana
and lose because instead of a closer we bring in one of our set-up men
