Shannon Sharpe’s giant maw shuttered by scandal
In the very same week that the enormously mouthed former Broncos TE Shannon Sharpe learned that he was a finalist for the NFL Hall of Fame he has been forced to step aside as a CBS sports commentator due to some pretty heinous accusations by a woman named Michele Bundy. In a state of Georgia “Family Violence” complaint (viewable at Sports By Brooks), Bundy accuses Sharpe of repeatedly raping and stalking her. Bundy has been awarded a restraining order against Sharpe.

Oh,boy. This could be a death-blow to Shannon Sharpe’s career, assuming there is validity to the accusations. Beating on women is no good and the NFL can’t afford to be associated with any players, current or former, who have done it. Naturally, we are Shannon Sharpe fans around here but the bloom’s off the rose if the things Michele Brady says turn out to be true. Let’s hope they aren’t. Athletes can be easy targets for women just as women can be easy targets for athletes.
