The Mixon tape

[Shropshire Slasher]

It's out.

It's bad. Very, very bad.

Thought this needed its own thread.

Joe Mixon video released

Stoops might have a hard time banning questions before this bowl game.

 

[hondo]

Makes De'Andre Johnson's punch in Tallahassee look like a love tap.

 

[TheSportsPredictor]

I prefer the Hamilton mixtape. Or Butch Walker's.

 

[poindexter]

It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.

How far would she have escalated it if he hadn't done anything.

 

[Alma]

Stoops - a remarkably cocky man - will surely try to bluster and intimidate his way through this one too

 

[heyabbott]

At least he didn't cut her throat.

 

[CD Boogie]

people on twitter trying to defend him as acting in self defense. yeah, ok. he should have just walked away. imagine he will have to answer for what precipitated the action.

It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.

Like walk away? Push her away? Maybe not clock her in the jaw?

Or follow her into the restaurant and confront her?

 

[Chef2]

she slapped him in the neck.
he gave her a full right hand to the face.
if anyone can put a spin on this, it's bull**** bob.

 

[poindexter]

she started it. He finished it. I'm not condoning it. I just don't think he's history's greatest monster.

They should both keep their hands to themselves.

You've got to be ****ing kidding me. Walk away, grab her arms, at worst push her away.

 

[poindexter]

You've got to be ****ing kidding me. Walk away, grab her arms, at worst push her away.

They both appear to be hammered. He's an OU running back. I'm not expecting him to act like Sir Galahad.

She attacks him twice. He goes WAY over the top in slugging her. He'll pay for that forever.

Sorry,my outrage meter isn't off the charts on this one.

 

[Jake_Taylor]

That's way over the top if he does it after a 300-pound teammate shoves him. He could have done permanent damage or worse when all he had to do was leave. It's not like he accidently knocked her down trying to get her off him.

 

[Neutral Corner]

That was a brutal right hook if he does it to someone his own size. He coldcocked her with one shot.

Outraged? Not really - but if I did that to a woman I'd expect to get my ass kicked by bystanders and then thrown in jail. Of course, I'm not nearly as big and scary looking either.

 

[Tweener]

It wasn't just that he coldcocked the woman. He showed no hesitation, no restraint. It was two seconds after she got in his face. He then clobbered her and walked away. Who does that?

 

[poindexter]

Joe Mixon.

 

[Songbird]

There are a lot of ways to neutralize a woman in situations such as this. What Mixon did is not one of them. Dickhead.

 

[LongTimeListener]

I will say in his and OU's defense though, he did sit out an entire year for this. Haven't we all generally agreed that if Goodell comes down harder on Ray Rice before the video, Rice probably survives to see the field again even after it?

 

[heyabbott]

There should be a greater outrage that this was intentionally kept from the public and took a lawsuit to bring it out.

Anyone who says this is self defense is a moron or a liar. When a cop shoots an unarmed civilian over a quick movement a million people have a fit. This a similar. A little girl touched a big football player and he goes nuclear. It's like a natural reaction. Something he's done before. Something he's seen before. Like it's ingrained and practiced.

Knocks her out, walks away. It all good.
