Alleged Rape at Marquis Daniels’s House

Daniels Not a Suspect

by Marcel Mutoni

Try as they might - and golly, we know they’ve tried - the Indiana Pacers just can’t avoid the negative headlines.

A woman is claiming that she was sexually assaulted at the home of Marquis Daniels, but the cops don’t consider the Pacer guard a suspect.

Daniels is not a suspect in the investigation, Sheriff Doug Carter said, and he is cooperating with investigators. The victim accused someone else at the house, the sheriff added.

“I don’t know what happened; I wasn’t involved,” Daniels said late Monday.

Yeesh. Talk about a dinner party gone horribly wrong.

Not to make light of a terrible situation, but imagine what must be going on in Larry Bird’s mind. Dude just can’t catch a break in the PR game.

Can’t imagine that they’ll find MD completely free of negligence in this case. He doesn’t know what’s happening in his house?

Yikes…these guys are making those old Blazers’ teams look tame.

They didn’t prosecute Pat Kerney. Depending on who you are, you aren’t responsible for what goes on in your house.

what is the difference between the NBA page and your News and Rumor page? They are mostly identical, sometimes differ, and the criteria for the difference isn’t clear to me. Why no just merge them?

Hearing Jim O’Brien tear into reporters asking relevant questions about this shows how sick and tired the Pacers organization is of having to deal with these issues. Even though MD was not involved, he’s got to take a look at the company he is keeping in his house. Horrible situation to be caught up in. Just bad news all around. And Mutoni, the fact that this team is associated with Larry Bird makes my head spin.

Ha ha, Vigoss your comment reminds me of a Biggie song. ” I got a story to tell” It’s about a ballplayer not knowing what’s going on in his house.

Hope Daniels remains out of it, he is the closest baller to dress like a clown on the court.

There is of course one key difference between Kerney and Daniels…

Why don’t the Pacers mgt. just hire surrogate parents for every one on the team. No one goes anywhere without their “parent” to chapperone. And the “parents” have to be vetted by the Supernanny.

As an Indiana native and Pacers fan I’m pretty sure this is the last straw. Never thought I’d say never, but it looks like my Boilers are all I’ve got left…

The Pacers are in a three way race with the Bobcats and Knicks for “Team I read about when I want to feel better about my team.”
