What would you do if you were ryan moats ?

*Please don't think i'm making fun or joking about anything here. this is all serious. curious how you guys feel.

I'm sure everyone is now familiar with the story of ryan moats racing to the hospital to be with his mother in law for a few minutes before she passed........and what happened when he pulled into the hospital parking lot. I understand the officer doing his job under a life and death situation but after the hospital DR's and the police in the hospital tell you let him go, why don't you let him go and not for over 12 minutes ? (some reports say 20 minutes)


I was personally a huge moats fan when he was in college, and he even played for my pro team the eagles, he is now with the texans.

just wanted to throw this out there, surprised no one has said anything.

i have just been hearing his and his wife's comments and i'm amazed, i would not be able to control myself, that's just me.

and how about the officer still not personally apologizing. WOW.

moats and his wife are even giving him the benefit of the doubt saying ohh maybe he called and we missed it or he couldn't get through. WOW



*then zach thomas comes out and says his wife was pulled over by the same officer for making an illegal u-turn, she got 5 tickets, and she was taken to jail. illegal u-turn = jail ?

Once the Doctors confirmed the story he should have let him go to see his mother in law.

Guys come on.he doesn't feel that bad, It's his MotherInLaw!!! I'm pretty sure he's pulling a publicity stunt.

After the first two minutes of the conversation the cop should have known he was serious.The cop was 25 and way overreacted IMO.I heard yesterday that zack Thomas is now coming out and saying the same officer treated his wife like shit giving her 5 tickets(4 which were thrown out) and taking her to jail.25 year old cops should have a older cop riding with them until there 30 if you ask me.

i'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and guess that you don't know the facts of the story. * BTW ryan moats didn't have a mother growing up, he thought of and treated his mother in law like his own mother.

I pretty much feel the same way vols, i did mention the zach thomas thing as well and that's what really made me post this, the fact that someone else recognized this same officer and he's 25 as you said. thanks for the serious comments vols.

we know you arent pulling a publicity stunt. someone lost a family member and youre joking about it. What does that say about your character and what type of person you are?

Think about it.

I guess all I have to say is some people really like their mother in laws...I have had two and liked both of them...at one point one was a very good friend and I welcomed her in my home and was happy to see her when she came...no cummed---CAME!!!

I can see where that one may go!!
