Ugh! Berryman in trouble again

[Palmer]

Do we know that yet? "Team rules" is rather broad.

could be wrong...but I thought the DMR article quoted Gregory as saying much.

 

[Palmer]

Yep.

but Barnstormer officials said the suspension was not for legal reasons. They said that it was team-related for things such as missing practice and being a disruption in the locker room.

 

[cycopath25]

If I remember he only signed on for a bit and was cut before training camp. He never did make the active roster during the season.

This is the only things I found NFL related to him and the Bengals: News - Four assigned to NFL Europe - Cincinnati Bengals
ESPN - Cincinnati Bengals Transactions - NFL Football Signed Jan. 2nd 2007, was allocated to NFL Europe 3 days later then cut May 3rd.

Point Travman!

 

[d4nim4l]

It did.

There is also nothing on Iowa Courts Online.

Thanks. That must have been added since it was originally published.

I knew JB was doomed for more trouble when him and Tyease Thompson (yes, the other well known ISU troublemaker) got a place together in Des Moines...It was just a matter of time before something happend.

ok, well not to be an apologist or anything, but if he didn't get booted for legal reasons, then this is basically a dead issue, right?

 

[Wesley]

Who's gonna hire the guy?

Can he join the military even? They need bodies in Iraq.

Sounds like he never showed to practice and other small TEAM things. Maybe Allen Iverson is a distant cousinn?

 

[Dolokaju]

I'd be curious if it was a habitual violation(ie skipping multiple meetings) or a one time thing where they had a zero tolerance policy.

At least it appears that it wasn't anything legal.

My point is, how much of a loser do you have to be to get kicked off a team that pays you like $200 a week?

 

[Carl1977]

You people amaze me. I have read nothing specific about what got him "kicked off" the team. I think you need to know some facts before you label him with crimes not committed or reported. I think JB has problems with authority and certainly has made some stupid mistakes in the past. Until I know details...speculation is dangerous.

I don't remember mentioning any crimes? I just said he was a loser. That is my opinion and this is America.

 

[cycloneryan]

When he was kicked off of the team at ISU I actually felt a little sorry for him, that he was a product of bad breaks and a tough upbringing. Now I just think he is an idiot.

 

[MontyBurns]

On the plus side though, he still has a ways to go to get to this guy's status as ex-player you wish was not associated with your school:

C'mon, Pierre Pierce and Jason Berryman have both been gone from college for years.

It's time for everyone to Pierce go and move on.

After all, Iowa's moved on. To a whole new generation of felons, that is:

 

[scyclonekid]

I think there is a big L on his forehead. What a dink.

 

[06_CY]

JB has a big ego and doesn't take to authority too well. Throw on top that he's not the brightest crayon in the box, but gotta love some of the comments in this thread...

 

[ajk4st8]

ONE MORE CHANCE!

 

[Phaedrus]

What a classy comment. Completely over the top and uncalled for.

I'd get banned if I said what I really think about this comment:skeptical:

For some reason I have a low tolerance for folks making disparaging comments about the kind of folks who serve their country in the military, especially from those who haven't.

 

[capitalcityguy]

Berryman was truly a difference maker on the field for the Barnstormers. Like my fellow ISU alums who also have Barnstormer season tix in my section, we'd all just key on him and enjoy watching him create havoc.

I have to believe he wasn't given several chances before getting booted.

Too bad. What a waste.

You're not alone. It's really uncalled for to rip down soldiers. That's way too low for me.
