Johnny Manziel"s Lawyer Accidentally Texts The AP And Then Threatens To Sue Them If They Report On It

Johnny Manziel Has Real Shot at NFL Comeback Says Ex-NFL QB

It"s become common game by many in America and elsewhere to c**p on lawyers whenever the opportunity presents itself. This is done unfairly in many cases, with a lack of understanding of what the adversarial nature of our legal system requires of legal advocates. For instance, a lawyer that strongly advocates for a client accused of something terrible isn"t himself or herself terrible. That"s the duty of the job.

But for one of the lawyers on the staff of Johnny Manziel, the seemingly troubled and frequent guest of the court who was once primarily known as a football player, it appears both that proper lawyer-ing is a bit more difficult than for most and that he"s a bully to boot. As you may have heard, Bob Hinton, who had been tasked with representing Manziel in his domestic abuse court case, accidentally texted the Associated Press information about his attempts to settle the case in a rather unfavorable light with respect to his client.

An attorney handling Johnny Manziel"s domestic violence case expressed doubts about the Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback"s ability to stay clean and said he was given a receipt that shows Manziel may have spent more than $1,000 at a drug paraphernalia store just 15 hours after he was involved in a hit-and-run crash, according to a lengthy text message accidentally sent to The Associated Press. Defense attorney Bob Hinton"s text indicated Manziel"s legal team was seeking a plea deal with prosecutors, but suggested that could be tricky.

"Heaven help us if one of the conditions is to pee in a bottle," the attorney wrote.

This oops-text happened after the AP had apparently sent Hinton a text message requesting comment about a hit-and-run accident that Manziel was reportedly involved in (Manziel claims to be the victim of the accident). Hinton had meant to text what he sent to the AP to co-counsel. The communication also included information about a smoke-shop receipt that may have indicated that Manziel had been purchasing synthetic marijuana, a fact not useful for the defense team of a high-profile individual with well-covered run-ins involving substance abuse. To accidentally text that information to the Associated Press has to be one of the best examples of what not to do as an attorney for such an individual.

But the really face-palm-inducing move by Hinton was to then threaten to sue the AP if it did any reporting around that text message.

When asked about the text, Hinton said he had meant to send it to co-counsel Jim Darnell and was unaware the AP had received it instead. He insisted the contents were protected by attorney-client privilege and threatened to sue if certain details were published.

I guess we"ll get to take the measure of that threat, as the AP most certainly did report on not only the text, but the subsequent threat as well. Such threats are unlikely to ingratiate a lawyer to the press and, while I won"t say the AP reported because of the threat, it seems like the added threat has given the story some extra flavor, propelling it Streisand-style into wider coverage.

And, not surprisingly, others are now reporting that Hinton has been booted from Manziel"s legal staff as a result. Not a good day for the counselor, I think. The mistake was bad enough, but the attempted cover-up, as always, ends up doing more harm.

QPlay: Sourav Ganguly Targets Shastri; Portugal vs Poland Today

Portugal vs Poland 1-1 (PEN 5-3) Highlights and Full Match EURO 2016 | Portugal"s semi-final

Poland have an impressive defensive record at Euro 2016 but standing in their way to a semi-final spot is arguably one of sports greatest-ever athletes, Cristiano Ronaldo.

The monstrous Polish centre back pairing of Michal Pazdan and Kamil Glik face their toughest challenge yet when they come up against Portugal in the last-eight clash in Marseille on Thursday, though their previous matches have not provided much by way of preparation for facing the Real Madrid star.

Describing 29-year-old Ronaldo as the perfect athlete, US lifestyle magazine Mens Health says he hits speeds of more than 32 kph, jumps nearly a metre in the air off one leg, runs an average of 16 km per match and hits more winners in the last 20 minutes than anyone else. Match starts 12:30 tonight!

Google"s My Activity reveals just how much it knows about you

Google My Maps

Google has rolled out new tools to let users see what its ad-tracking service has learned about them, and to let users opt in or out of a new personalised ads service.

The addition to Googles account settings, called My Activity, allows users to review everything that Google has tracked about their behaviour across search, YouTube, Chrome, Android and everything else and edit or delete it at each step.

If you use Google for everything you do, you might be surprised by just how much it catalogues about your comings and goings on the internet.

The My Activity tools comes with new ad preferences. Google currently uses the information it has learned about you to tailor ads across its own services, of which you can opt out.

But now Google is offering to use its behavioural information to tailor ads shown across the wider non-Google internet and Googles search pages, which until now was purely done through the use of cookies.

The big difference to most other moves by similar companies offering ads on its own services and third-party sites, including Facebook, is that Google is making this interest-based advertising extension opt-in, not opt-out. If a user does not actively select to enable the new ad targeting they will not automatically be enrolled.

Now there are two separate behavioural advert settings for users to switch on or off as they see fit. One is so-called signed in ads, those on Google services, and signed out ads, those served by Google on third-party sites of which there are over 2m across the internet.

For the privacy conscious, youre unlikely to want to opt in for greater profiling and should you wish to turn off both signed in and signed out ads, Google also has a Chrome extension to permanently opt out of Googles DoubleClick tracking cookie. But to encourage users and make dealing with ads a more palatable proposition Googles making tools available to users to sweeten the deal. These include the ability to mute certain ads, including those that irritatingly seem to follow you around the internet after the odd search or product viewing, and find out why youre seeing particular ads.

The new tools and controls are rolling out to users at the moment, but not everyone has immediate access. Users should get a notification about privacy and security changes in the near future, which will guide them to the new ads settings.

Is This the Real Reason Iggy Azalea and Nick Young Split?

Donkey Of The Day 🐴 - Nick Young (Caught Cheating On Iggy Azalea In Their Home)

After Nick Young"s cheating scandal emerged, it seemed like a breakup with Iggy Azalea was inevitable. However, their split didn"t actually happen for a while afterwards, and more details are emerging that may illuminate why. Life and Style reports that the basketball player is expecting a child with his ex-girlfriend, Keonna Green. They already have one son together, Nick Jr.

Sources say that Keonna is already four months pregnant, and this new development caused a major rift in Iggy and Nick"s relationship.

Iggy was supportive of Nicks friendship with Keonna. He took advantage of Iggys trust. Nick waited until Keonna was four months pregnant to tell Iggy the news," the insider said.

A reporter for the publication approached Keonna at an event last week, and she looked visibly pregnant. When asked if her pregnancy was an accident between her and Nick, she said "yes," and then followed it up with, "No comment."

Yikes! Since Keonna"s social media accounts are private, there"s no way to verify this account. Still, it would certainly shed light into his breakup with Iggy.

Oilers" Connor McDavid upset to see Taylor Hall leave

Power Play with CJ: Taylor Hall for Adam Larsson Trade

If there is a bright side to the Taylor Hall trade, Connor McDavid will focus on it a little later.

Right now hes coming to grips with having to say goodbye to his teammate, mentor and good friend.

Its definitely a shock, said the 19-year-old franchise player, who thought the Oilers were going to make a big move, but never dreamed it would involve Hall.

People were expecting something to happen, but you can never really plan for something like this until it happens. So everyone is in a little bit of shock.

Change is exciting, but at the same time its upsetting to see a teammate, a dear friend and my roommate go. Its a little bit of a different feeling right now.

McDavid, who lived in Halls house last season and lost both of his roommates in a span 36 hours when the Oilers failed to qualify Luke Gazdic on Monday, says the former first overall pick was a major influence in his rookie season. Not many people can understand what its like to be in McDavids situation rookie superstar/saviour in hockey crazy Edmonton but Hall was there to help him on and off the ice.

He was hoping he and Hall would be Oilers together for a long time, but Wednesdays news put a sudden stop to those dreams.

I want to express thanks for all that hes done for me because hes done so much. Ill never really know how I can repay him, or if Ill ever be able to, for what hes done for me this year.

Hes a guy who took me under his wing right away. Its hard to explain how much that means to me.

The Hall trade, for New Jersey Devils defenceman Adam Larsson, is just one of several major developments for the Oilers this summer. Jesse Puljujarvi fell into their lap in last weekends draft and it looks like theyll be adding Milan Lucic and possibly defenceman Jason Demers when free agency opens July 1.

Thats potentially four impact players added to the roster in a week.

For sure we will have a different dynamic, said McDavid. Whenever you trade away a key piece of your organization, somebody whos been there for a long time, it has to change everything.

Well definitely be a little bit different, but every thing is definitely pointed in the right direction. We added a defenceman, which we definitely needed and well see what happens in free agency.

Its exciting, but like I keep saying, its upsetting to see Taylor go.

Hall had a hole or two in his game (who doesnt?), but he played hard every night. Thats an element that didnt go unnoticed by McDavid.

He totally does (go full speed every game), said McDavid. Being around him for a year you definitely see that. You see how hard he works and how badly he wants to be the best. Its going to be a great opportunity for him in New Jersey.

As for next season with the Oilers, McDavid said there is a lot to look forward to. But right now its about saying goodbye to his buddy.

Im excited for next year, he said. Were adding a piece we definitely need it will help a great deal, but I dont want to forget that were all losing a good friend and a great teammate.
