Elam, who rose above a crime-ravaged neighborhood in Riviera Beach, Fla., and endured family tragedies and refused to surrender when his career seemed over, has emerged as a solid starter for the Jets. He's coming off the best game of career, a seven tackle performance on Thanksgiving against the Cowboys, his former team.
This should be a feel-good story, but there's another side to it.
In April 2002, a Notre Dame junior named Lindsay Charles accused three football players of raping her at an off-campus house. A fourth, Elam, wasn't charged with rape, but was in the bedroom. Elam fondled her and wound up being convicted of sexual battery, a felony. The others walked away, no convictions.
Charles walked away a psychological mess, friends say, so afraid of retribution in the football-obsessed Notre Dame community that she legally changed her last name while finishing her undergraduate work. (She has since returned to her real name.) Years later, when Elam resurfaced, so did she, waging a smear campaign against him wherever he showed up on the football map.
"I feel sick to my stomach whenever I think about Abram Elam," Charles writes in an E-mail to the Daily News. "I am disappointed that an NFL team would sign a convicted sex offender, when there must be other talented men who have not committed heinous crimes. He belongs in a jail cell, not on the gridiron."
Elam is "a paper tiger," says Kathy Redmond, founder of the National Coalition Against Violent Athletes. She acknowledges that Elam "inflicted the least amount of damage" of the four, but she says his most egregious crime was not trying to stop the alleged rape and refusing to testify against the others.
"He could've made a difference if he had shown some courage, telling the whole story the way it really happened without having to feel like he ratted out his boys," says Redmond, who has worked closely with Charles since the incident.
With a hint of hopefulness in her voice, she adds, "There's no statute of limitations on him doing the right thing."

if the miami marlins didnt get such a banging new logo and ozzie guillen (love this mans grasp of english to death) then i would prolly be a tigers fan. i had one of those detroit tigers punchy things as a kid so that decides that

i only had a few in my email outbox and these are camera jpegs. my main editing computer is dead so my partner has all of them. poor guy's going to have to go through all of them 
(why you need lens flare cover)
and
we were doing an after series for people who had gone through a trainer's program.
for content, i'll also be going camping in big sur alone this weekend. i guess its not a sport but it's certain outdoorsy. i can't go backcountry for probably another year or so, but i can do an effort post on that later.
i thought you ended up in a fitness photoshoot and i wanted to see an LF goon holding it down in the fitness industry lmbo
but really if people are interested in a backcountry hiking/treking thread/post i can make one but i'm probably not the best informed.
150 mil to miss a penalty. GG Ronaldo.
hahahahaha Ramos you shit fuck, you sent that shot to the mooooon!
Well... the champions league final is gonna be in Munich, with Bayern Munich in the final. this city is gonna be fucking insane.
