    This is absoultly horrible. Williams was starting to be a great corner in this league, he had like 89 tackles and 4 INTs. I hope they find the killers in this drive by shooting and punish them severly.

    We should likely be more suprised it doesn't happen more often. At least it wasn't another Rae Curruth/Ray Lewis/O.J. mess. When your league is filled with fatherless thugs this kind of thing is bound to happen. Notice we don't see this in the NHL?

    It sucks to hear stuff like this in the news. I just hope the Broncos organization, his family, and friends find whoever did this and punish them. Were there any witnesses?

    Just heard a report on NFL Network. It's believed he died right by Javon Walker. I guess they were at a party at Carmelo Anthony's house. Got into an argument with some gang and then left for Allen Iverson's party. On the way there the gang followed them and then fired shots. That's what Adam Schefner reported but nothing has been confirmed yet.

    I wish his family well because from what I read recently and in the past when he attended Oklahoma State he seemed like a good guy.

    Like I said earlier, hanging at Carmelo Anthony's or Allen Iverson's isn't want I'd call good judgement. Ya think there might be thugs with guns at their houses? :stupid:

    zachman from all the things i've heard is that Darrent Williams isnt a thug he was sitting in his limo and a person came up next to the limo and shot into it... not sure how its William's fault.

    It wasn't Williams fault. It's also not poor judgement to choose to hang out with multimillion dollar professionals on a holiday. Who knew that the murderer(s) were within one to two degrees of separation from anyone? Not knowing much about any of the athletes who invite me to their party, I would assume that the evening will turn out uneventful, and not involve murder. There is just too much for them to lose if they sensed that something bad was about to go down. These athletes hold huge parties all the time, and of course, we only get to hear about the most extreme cases. My advice to those who fear getting murdered, stay indoors on New Years Eve and don't go out. Anytime you leave your comfort zone, anything and everything can happen to you, including getting shot (less likely) or possibly ran over by a drunk driver on any given street (more likely).

    What I am sure of, is never to let my daughter babysit for Mark Chmura or Mike Tyson.

    A Bengals player is more likely to be the shooter than the victim....we should wait and see what the investigation reveals....Bengals players may be invlolved after all....

    +1 for Zackman, even though it was a bit harsh. When will Football and Basketball players realize.

    Nightclubs = bad

    Its ridiculous, anyone with a brain would observe the amount of professional athletes that get in trouble at night clubs or strip joints.

    Sweeping generalization? Trying to paint a picture on a 3x3 canvas using a roller instead of a brush?

    Guns don't kill people, people kill people. Not every nightclub is bad, but some people are definitely bad.

    Anyone with a brain would observe that most of our adult population in America, whether they are athletes or not, go to nightclubs every week. In our country, drinking is legal in designated, licensed public places, like nightclubs. The vast majority of the time, there is never an arguement, fight, or shooting involved. Occasionally, bad things happen to good people. That's why there are cops. When athletes are involved, at the scene, or somehow close to anything criminal, their name gets splattered across every news source in a matter of minutes. Whether or not they were at fault is irrelevant, they are still tagged by the media just because they are rich and famous, and were in proximity to a crime. It's remarkable how everyone's first knee-jerk reaction is to somehow place blame on them, even though they had nothing to do with it. Even people who otherwise never drink alcohol, will do so on New Years Eve, at a nightclub, with their friends. This is a bad thing?

    Javon Walker was in the Vehicle with him, he reportedly died in his arms...

    Javon is said to be in counseling now, i cant imagine how the teammates and family are feeling right now.

    They say Williams was shot in the neck but I wonder what the actual COD was? I assume it would be either exsanguination or a severed spinal cord. Either way, it sucks and I feel bad for him, his family, and the entire NFL community. From what I read he was a pretty cool guy who didn't get into trouble and that he was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time.
