The latest on Lawrence Taylor

The weekend largely has slowed the frenzy of news items regarding Hall of Fame linebacker Lawrence Taylor. But with no new controversy to bump L.T.'s situation out of the headlines, the situation will remain a major focal point of media coverage.

Sunday's New York Post provides some new details regarding the case. The 16-year-old girl with whom Taylor allegedly had sex shared details as to the manner in which she was allegedly forced into the encounter.

"I told [Rasheed Davis] I wasn't going to the hotel, and he said, 'You're f---ing this up, it's $300," the girl told the Post. She claims that Davis then hit her in the face, and that he kicked and stomped on her.

The girl also says that, because the room was dark, Taylor didn't see the bruising on her face. She was told to tell Taylor that she is 19.

But here's where it gets weird. (Or, as the case may be, weirder.) The girl claims that she feared for her life if she refused to have sex with Taylor. "If I didn't go through with it, [Taylor] would've called Rasheed and there would have been consequences," she said. "God knows what would've happened if I didn't go through with it."

But the Post reports that, despite these fears, the girl was able and willing to send a text message to her uncle for help "while still in the alleged clutches of Davis." Though the "clutches" phrase likely was added for effect, we're still confused by the fact that she didn't send a text message to her uncle before the incident -- and that she somehow was able to send him a text message after the incident, while being driven back to New York by Davis.

The Post also reports that Taylor was involved in five domestic disturbances with two of his wives since 2002. It's irrelevant to the charges he's currently facing, but it counters the notion that Taylor otherwise has lived a squeaky-clean life since leaving drug use in his past.

Bottom line? Taylor faces serious consequences, regardless of whether the girl lied to him about her age. His lawyer has acknowledged that ignorance is no defense. Taylor's only hope at this point will be the ability to create reasonable doubt as to whether they had the kind of sexual contact that would result in a Class E felony (punishable by up to four years in prisons), or the ability to persuade prosecutors to cut him some slack due to the fact that his illegal activity -- patronizing a prostitute -- ended up inadvertently being far more illegal than Taylor ever intended or imagined.

Heyyyyy wooorrrrrllllllddd!!!

Just got back from our practice today so I thought I’d drop you guys a few lines. My first playoff game back in my hometown of the A-T-L went really well. Our guys came out solid yesterday and we hit the Hawks before they could hit us. We’re playing for something big this season, and we’re trying not to have a game where we overlook any team or situation.

Another great thing about yesterday’s game was that my 90-year-old grandma was in attendance. It was only her second time seeing me play in person so I’m glad I did well and we got the W. To be honest, I think she was more excited about meeting Patrick Ewing than she was seeing me play. She loves her some Patrick!!!

Since today is Mother’s Day I wanted to give all the moms out there a special shout out. Thank you for having us and putting up with all of our junk when we were kids.

I want to tell you guys about my mom, Sheryl. She’s the best mom a kid could ever have. I wasn’t a bad kid or somebody that she always had to stay on but she was always big on making sure that I respected other people. She pushed me to do the best I could in everything and in life.

My mom did a great job in those 18 years that I was at home. She helped me become the person that I am today. No matter the situation on the court, back at home or in my personal life, my mom and her lessons are always in my heart. Her influence helps me make decisions, enjoy life and treat people the way I would want to be treated.

Occasionally, during games I’ll look over and catch her eye and she’ll give me that little wink because she knows what I’m going through out there. She’s pretty quiet now, but ya’ll didn’t know her back in the day when she would do all kinds of yelling and screaming at games.

After my first couple of years I told her that I had been playing basketball for a long time and learned how to tune her out during games. But out of all those voice you hear during a game you can always hear your mom and dad over everybody else. I would tell her to let me play basketball, don’t worry so much and enjoy the games. She’s gotten A LOT better at that.

I can’t wait to take my mom out to dinner later tonight in Atlanta. I’m really craving some Mrs. Winter’s chicken, but she’s probably going to want something fancier than that. I got her a gift, but I can’t spoil the secret in case she reads this. I know Vince Carter got his mom an I-Pad, but my mom doesn’t really do computers. She’s still got a CD player, ya’ll!!!

I love you mom!!! I hope all you moms out there had a great day.

We just need one more against the Hawks on Monday and we can move on to the next round. Getting that one win is all that matters to us now. Peace out and go Magic!!!
