Have you guys heard of Luke Heimlich?

**ChuckyTheGoat** · 06-05-18, 02:51 AM

Yes, have followed the story for two years. College baseball fans largely feel that Heimlich's 2017 self-imposed suspension may have stopped Beavers from winning NCAAs.

The SI story was brilliant. How do u size up a story like this? So many angles.

It's such a disgusting story that it's barely fit for public consumption. One angle re: Heimlich is that he pretty much has to deny it at this point. If he ADMITS to it...that would pretty much be an un-forgivable crime that would kill his career.

**jjgold** · 06-05-18, 05:21 AM

I would not touch this guy

It is one crime you cannot forgive and never get cured

PASS

**Chi_archie** · 06-05-18, 05:52 AM

yes been hearing about him for the past week or so.

I think I remember a story a few years back when he first started pitching in college

JJ is correct on this one

**JAKEPEAVY21** · 06-05-18, 08:24 AM

it will be a PR nightmare for the team that ends up drafting him.

**milwaukee mike** · 06-05-18, 08:33 AM

this is why there are youthful offender statutes

how many other prospects did something worse and had the records expunged?

he was a young kid, maybe he didn't even do anything, who knows... 4 year olds like to say gross stuff and live in their own world

**Sato** · 06-05-18, 08:36 AM

pass

Chucky - Agree with your thoughts above. The SI piece is very well written, provides thoughts from both sides. This is a situation where only Heimlich knows the real truth, how much are you going to believe a guy accused then plead guilty of the charges (but stated he never actually did it).
Tough situation for that family, can’t imagine.

I've never heard of him until this evening.

He's a 22 year old, college baseball pitching phenom for Oregon State, and easily has the talent to be a top pick.

And then there's the other side of Luke Heimlich:

When he was a teenager he admitted to molesting his preschool aged niece over the course of a couple of years.

He's now a pariah, and rightfully so.

Good read, but a long read: https://www.si.com/mlb/2018/05/16/lu...h-oregon-state

giant i thought the heimlich maneuver was something to save lives

my world has been flipped upside down

**lakerboy** · 06-05-18, 10:55 AM

He will NEVER be drafted

**pinnerpsk** · 06-05-18, 11:41 AM

He doesn't have the talent to be a top pick.

**A4K** · 06-05-18, 11:43 AM

He claims he copped to the plea so it wouldn't destroy his family. Who knows what the truth is?

From what I had read, the little girl was pretty descriptive about what happened.

**The Kraken** · 06-05-18, 12:35 PM

She was six and six year olds know whats going on, they’re not living in their ownblittle world making up lies about sexual abuse. Most have no clue about anything they’re describing except for the fact it happened to them

He doesnt get a pass because “nobody knows” or nobody witnessed it. If their is enough circumstantial evidence its easy to find him guilty both in court and the court of public opinion

**The Giant** · 06-05-18, 08:06 PM

Through the first 10 rounds, he hasn't been chosen.

Tomorrow there are 30 rounds, and the experts seem to think someone will take a flyer on him.

**VeggieDog** · 06-05-18, 08:39 PM

Was he doing the heimlich maneuver?

**19th Hole** · 06-05-18, 08:42 PM

He could always coach at Penn State.

I heard he used to trade baseball cards with Jared Fogle.

**thetrinity** · 06-06-18, 06:54 AM

this is a tough one to deal with

he will probably end up being picked today even though hes not on everyones board, too good to pass up

I think he probably did do it, but it seems that experts and stats seem to suggest that this probably wont happen again

a rare good piece by a news outlet

ok i thought she was 4-5 based on the article

when my daughter was that age she would repeatedly say that she pooped on her brother's face when he was sleeping

if there was enough evidence then they wouldn't have done that low of a plea bargain right?

this info should've remained sealed/expunged... when i was 15 i was so horny i would've rubbed my dick up against anything

To Parents of children reading in - Better yet raise your children up right and they won't rape the niece. As much as you hate to go to church on Sunday mornings fight the power and take your kids to church on Sunday kicking and screaming if need be.. Kids listen and you need to plant that moral seed early on, kids pay more attention to the little things in life more then us adults.. They remember the little things as you did as a child.. Teach them right and wrong early on, teach them the 10 commandments..

Put the fear of GOD and Hell in them.. Always show them love though, encourage them to be the best they can be in life... They look up to you.. That's on you now!!! Good parenting is our future. Invest time in your kids and your kids will invest their time in humanity...

That's my moral post for the day, back to the games now...
