Under "References," please consider deleting number (9), for the following reason:
 
USA Herald, and/or Ted Smith, is not a legitimate media source, nor is the published article factually accurate. Specifically, it is a matter of verifiable public record that Florida State Attorney, Willie Meggs, was initially apprised of the December 7, 2012 Tallahassee Police Department report of sexual assault (which subsequently implicated Mr. Winston) no earlier than November of 2013.

<!-- Begin request -->
Under the Sexual assault complaint it it currently states:
 
"On December 5, 2013, state attorney Willie Meggs announced the completion of the investigation and that no charges would be filed against Winston in this case.[14]"
 
It would be more accurate to state the following:
 
"On December 5, 2013, according to State Attorney Willie Meggs he stated that "well we went through the process of trying to gather all of the information we could gather and like we do in every case that we prosecute we looked at it we evaluated the evidence and we have a standard we are required to go by of that we should not file a case or charge someone with a crime, any crime, unless we can be assured in our minds that we have a reasonable likelihood of a conviction and in this case we just didn't feel like with all of the facts as they rolled out that we would be able to sustain a conviction or obtain a conviction." [14] "
 
 
I feel that gives a more accurate account for the charges not being filed than what is currently displayed.

Right now the article says that he was suspended for making an obscene statement. Shouldn't we say what the statement was? [[User:Emperor001|Emperor001]] ([[User talk:Emperor001|talk]]) 18:57, 20 September 2014 (UTC)

*I don't see why we should. The article that gives the full quote is linked. Is there any reason we should spell it out? Does it have special poetic value? I don't see what it has that makes it necessary to reproduce it in article space. Also, ahem, in the grand scheme of things this is a small event, as gross as it is.

::The point of an article is to inform people. There's no reason not to inform them as to what the obscenity was. He didn't just yell "shit!" -- and if we simply say that he uttered an obscenity then the reader is likely to be puzzled that a mere obscenity led to his being suspended from a game. I see no reason why our readers should end up feeling puzzled; yes, they can click through and see what the obscenity was, but why should they have to? I've given a good reason as to why it ''should'' be included, and I don't see anyone offering a good reason why it shouldn't.

:::We ''sufficiently inform'' people by using the term "obscenity" and making Wikipedia into the National Enquirer is less than wise.

[[User:Collect|Collect]] ([[User talk:Collect|talk]]) 17:25, 30 September 2014 (UTC)

::::::I too would prefer not to have the direct quote, but I don't feel strongly about it. I don't think it violates [[WP:BLP]], so long as there is no doubt about the sourcing that he did, indeed, say it. Subjectively, the direct quote provides a clearer portrait of the subject, and subjectively, it provides no more information than something like "a vulgar Internet meme" would. I can understand why the editors who favor the direct quote feel that way, but the intensity with which some of those editors are defending that quote puzzles me. I just don't see why a mature person would feel so very strongly that we absolutely must provide the quote. --[[User:Tryptofish|Tryptofish]] ([[User talk:Tryptofish|talk]]) 22:11, 3 October 2014 (UTC)

:{{od}}As noted in the first response in this discussion, [[WP:CENSOR]] addresses very clearly the question of whether information which appears in WP articles should be censored -- it should not be. Whether or not this particular bit of information has sufficient topical weight to appear in this article is a separate question. If information about this does appear in the article, the question of how it should be presented should be decided by consensus. If the information presented includes the quote, however, the quote should be not be censored.

Note: The NYT, AP and other US sources do ''not'' use the word. The tabloid sites like BuzzFeed, do. Wikipedia can either follow the ''vast majority'' of US reportage in major reliable sources, or follow BuzzFeed. I do not think it is "censorship" to follow standard US journalistic practices on Wikipedia, and if we use weight of sources, the ''vast preponderance'' thereof do not use "fuck" as several editors wish Wikipedia to do. [[User:Collect|Collect]] ([[User talk:Collect|talk]]) 12:58, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
:I see no reason to restrict ourselves to US sources and US journalistic practices. That sounds a bit chauvinistic and narrow. [[User:Nomoskedasticity|Nomoskedasticity]] ([[User talk:Nomoskedasticity|talk]]) 19:34, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
::That you see no reason to use what the massive majority of reliable sources say is interesting. But against rational policy. Unless of course you believe every instance of "fuck" belongs in quotes in an encyclopedia just because you can find a source using that word? I assuredly believe the term in [[WP:BLP]] about "conservative writing" actually has some shred of meaning. Cheers. [[User:Collect|Collect]] ([[User talk:Collect|talk]]) 20:26, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
:::The nature of the statement and its relation to a specific controversy concerning the subject is more important than the fact that what he (supposedly) said makes you uncomfortable.[[Special:Contributions/73.2.136.228|73.2.136.228]] ([[User talk:73.2.136.228|talk]]) 19:53, 11 October 2014 (UTC)

:::::The major reliable sources do ''not'' make assertions about the exact wording, and specifically do ''not'' use the expression which has been edit-warred into this BLP (NYT, WaPo, etc.). Wikipedia says we should use the ''strongest'' sources for any BLP, and, frankly, using BuzzFeed etc. as our sources makes a mockery of Wikipedia policy. Cheers. [[User:Collect|Collect]] ([[User talk:Collect|talk]]) 00:49, 12 October 2014 (UTC)
::::::This is the usual time-wasting nonsense from this editor. One might get the impression that the portion of the article in question relies on Buzzfeed as a source. In fact Buzzfeed isn't used as a source in this article at all. Collect, why ''are'' you moaning about Buzzfeed? Anyone can see that the quotation is sourced not to Buzzfeed but to the Guardian.

::::::::We go by the ''weight'' given in reliable sources - the ''extreme majority'' of the most reliable sources do not use the FUCK word which some seem intent on adding to many BLPs. Cheers -- where the ''vast majority'' of the most reliable sources do not make a claim, then the weight argument is very strong. The Guardian, one should note, does not make the quote a "matter of fact" but ascribes the claim to anonymous sources (''"after several students tweeted" '' is not a claim that the person, in fact, used the word - but a claim that ''anonymous or unnamed sources'' made that claim). [[User:Collect|Collect]] ([[User talk:Collect|talk]]) 14:16, 12 October 2014 (UTC)
::::::::Tryptofish: no, there's no reason to doubt the Guardian's accuracy. What might raise doubt is if Winston had been reported to deny having said these words. There's no evidence of this. On the other matter: I suppose I should be grateful that Collect has not persisted in claiming that the article was using Buzzfeed as a source; an apology for having gotten things wrong is probably too much to expect. [[User:Nomoskedasticity|Nomoskedasticity]] ([[User talk:Nomoskedasticity|talk]]) 14:32, 12 October 2014 (UTC)
:::::::::Thanks. I, too, regard ''The Guardian'' as a reliable source. I also note Collect's edit indicating that the source actually attributes to quote to student tweets rather than directly to their own reporter, and I support having our content be precise about that fact. --[[User:Tryptofish|Tryptofish]] ([[User talk:Tryptofish|talk]]) 15:00, 12 October 2014 (UTC)

== Updating article ==
 
I’d like to update and edit this article in a few ways, mostly relating to the rape allegation, and wanted to start by posting some thoughts here. The main problem I see is, the story in the Sexual Assault Allegation section looks like it’s been added piece by piece, as information has come out over the last few years; it does not flow very well, or present the issue in a very accessible way. Some minor details are covered, while more major points (such as his being expected to sit out the NFL draft, even as he is the projected #1 draft pick) are omitted. In some cases, the text seems less than neutral; for instance, while prosecutor Meggs was certainly critical of ''the initial investigation'', the statement that there were ''major issues'' with ''Kinsman's testimony'', outside the context of his specific comments, comes across as negative innuendo. I'm also not sure that having a separate "Controversies" section is a good idea, since this issue intertwines so strongly with Winston’s football career. Any thoughts on these points? -[[User:Edwardpatrickalva|Edwardpatrickalva]] ([[User talk:Edwardpatrickalva|talk]]) 17:45, 23 March 2015 (UTC)
:Sounds good, and with such a controversial topic, it's a good thing for you to raise it here. Maybe rewrite some of it and share it with us on the talk page before putting it in the article. &ndash;&nbsp;[[User:Muboshgu|Muboshgu]]&nbsp;([[User talk:Muboshgu#top|talk]]) 18:36, 23 March 2015 (UTC)
 
::Thanks {{u|Muboshgu}}. I have a proposed new version below. I intend this as a first step; I’ve tried to do a few things, that will hopefully establish a good foundation for (me or others) to continue to improve the section. Here are the main changes in this version:
::*Simplified language, to make it easier to read/follow
::*Removed several items that seem imbalanced in the way they are presented; for instance, while the TPD did indeed state that Kinsman stopped cooperating, she contested that claim, so it is misleading to state one position without the other. Also, the statement that Winston continued to play seemed only to serve the purpose of reiterating that he wasn’t charged; the question of whether or not he played during the investigation, which may have seemed very important back in 2013, does not seem to be a point more recent sources have continued to emphasize.
::*The NYT article did not use the word "irregularities" - I reworded to more closely match the source.
::This version does remove content, and does remove sources that should probably be preserved in the article in the long run. I propose we park them here on the talk page while considering further improvement to the article.
::Overall: is this an improvement? OK to change the article? -[[User:Edwardpatrickalva|Edwardpatrickalva]] ([[User talk:Edwardpatrickalva|talk]]) 22:10, 24 March 2015 (UTC)
:::Sorry, I missed this prior to your making the edit in the actual article just now. It looks good to me! &ndash;&nbsp;[[User:Muboshgu|Muboshgu]]&nbsp;([[User talk:Muboshgu#top|talk]]) 17:49, 31 March 2015 (UTC)

===Sexual assault allegation===
In November 2013, [[State's attorney|State Attorney]] Willie Meggs of the [[Second Judicial Circuit Court of Florida|Second Judicial Circuit]] opened an investigation into an allegation that Winston had sexually assaulted a classmate the previous year. The initial complaint had been filed with the [[Tallahassee Police Department]] (TPD) on December 7, 2012.<ref>{{cite news|last=Wolken|first=Dan|title=State doesn't expect Jameis Winston to speak with investigators|publisher=''[[USA Today]]''|date=November 15, 2013|url=http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/ncaaf/2013/11/15/jameis-winston-florida-state-sexual-assault-investigation/3578745/|accessdate=November 16, 2013}}</ref>; the TPD had classified the case as open/inactive in February 2013.<ref>{{cite web |title=Timeline of events in Jameis Winston allegation|publisher=USA Today|date=November 22, 2013|url=http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/ncaaf/acc/2013/11/22/jameis-winston-sexual-battery-allegation-florida-states-seminoles/3672039/|accessdate=November 23, 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/9976910/jameis-winston-florida-state-seminoles-not-talking-police|title=Jameis Winston not talking|publisher=''ESPN''|date=November 14, 2013|accessdate=November 16, 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.talgov.com/uploads/public/documents/assets/news/tpd-documents.pdf|title=Tallahassee Police Department|publisher=''Talgov.com''|date=December 7, 2012|accessdate=November 15, 2014}}</ref> On December 5, 2013, Meggs announced the completion of the investigation, filing no charges.

''[[The New York Times]]'' published the conclusions of its own investigation in April 2014, asserting that neither the TPD nor FSU had genuinely investigated the initial report. Though a medical examination of the victim revealed bruised knees and semen on the woman's body – and the victim would identify Winston by name as her attacker a month later, Tallahassee police reportedly never obtained a [[DNA]] sample from Winston, never interviewed him, nor attempted to obtain video of the encounter taken by Seminoles teammate Chris Casher. The investigation was conducted by Officer Scott Angulo, who, the ''Times''{{'}} article notes, did private security work for the Seminole Boosters, the primary financier of Florida State athletics.<ref>{{cite web|last=Bogdanich|first=Walt|title=A Star Player Accused, And A Flawed Rape Investigation|accessdate=April 16, 2014 |url=http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2014/04/16/sports/errors-in-inquiry-on-rape-allegations-against-fsu-jamies-winston.html?hp&_r=0|publisher=''[[The New York Times]]''|date=April 16, 2014|archivedate=April 16, 2014|deadurl=no|archiveurl=//web.archive.org/web/20140416121100/http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2014/04/16/sports/errors-in-inquiry-on-rape-allegations-against-fsu-jamies-winston.html?hp&_r=0}}</ref>

=== Expanding lead section ===
The lead section is very short, and leaves out key points - like Winston expected to be a top NFL draft pick, and the 4 issues consigned to "controversies" at the end of the article (even though they have been the focus of lots of coverage). How about adding this paragraph to the lead section, right before the sentence about baseball? -[[User:Edwardpatrickalva|Edwardpatrickalva]] ([[User talk:Edwardpatrickalva|talk]]) 18:03, 6 April 2015 (UTC)
:Winston is considered one of the top two quarterbacks in the [[2015 NFL draft]], and many analysts predict he may be the #1 pick. Off-the-field incidents, which include an alleged rape in 2012, shoplifting, and behavior that drew a full-game suspension, have raised concern among the teams who might draft him.<ref>{{cite news|title=Jameis Winston, Marcus Mariota earn high marks at NFL combine|first=Lindsay H.|last=Jones|work=USA TODAY|date=February 21, 2015|url=http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/draft/2015/02/21/analysis-jameis-winston-marcus-mariota-earn-high-marks-at-nfl-combine/23796085/}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|title=The Tricky Calculus of Picking Jameis Winston|first=Bill|last=Pennington|date=January 30, 2015|work=New York Times|url=http://www.nytimes.com/2015/01/31/sports/football/no-1-debate-in-tampa-whether-to-draft-jameis-winston.html}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|title=QB coach: Teams spying on Jameis Winston leading up to draft|first=Charles|last=Robinson|date=March 31, 2015|work=Yahoo Sports|url=http://sports.yahoo.com/news/qb-coach--teams-spying-on-jameis-winston-leading-up-to-draft-232727792.html}}</ref>
::The part about him being the likely first overall pick and how highly regarded he is as a prospect I agree with, but I don't agree with adding the second part. In the future when the intro likely becomes bigger than I can see adding a small part about his off-field troubles (similar to [[Ben Roethlisberger]]'s intro) but right now the intro is so small, I don't think that should be highlighted right now.--[[User:Yankees10|Yankees10]] 18:17, 6 April 2015 (UTC)
::: I added this, with a little additional info -- I agree that the lead section is very short, and should present a fuller picture. So I added a little about his high school career, and the frequently mentioned comparisons to Mariota. Nearly all coverage I have found has mentioned Winston's negatives, sometimes with a euphemism like "his off-field judgment" or similar. Some NFL.com stories don't mention it, but the NFL has a vested interest in downplaying the negatives, so I don’t think their leaving it out is significant. A number of major mainstream publications have covered them in depth, outside their sports sections. So I think it is important to mention these issues prominently in the bio, and not bury them at the bottom of the article in a separate controversy section which makes them appear unrelated to his status as a draft prospect. -[[User:Edwardpatrickalva|Edwardpatrickalva]] ([[User talk:Edwardpatrickalva|talk]]) 00:36, 16 April 2015 (UTC)

== Including rape allegation etc. in lead section ==
 
The lead section paragraph mentioning Winston's alleged rape, shoplifting, etc. as a central consideration in his draft prospects was just deleted, with the edit summary: "this paragraph is outdated now that Winston has been drafted." But the topic remains a centrally important consideration in nearly all coverage of Winston, in news coverage of his selection and its implications for the future. Coverage ''after the draft'' by numerous outlets centers on these questions. (For instance [http://www.si.com/more-sports/2015/05/03/nfl-draft-espn-nfl-network-nichols-beadle-kentucky-derby Sports Illustrated], [http://espn.go.com/nfl/draft2015/story/_/id/12801441/tampa-bay-buccaneers-officially-sign-jameis-winston ESPN/Associated Press], and [http://www.npr.org/2015/05/01/403597705/tampa-bay-vetted-jameis-winston-before-choosing-him-as-no-1-draft-pick National Public Radio]) And [http://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/jameis-winston-remains-polarizing-figure-post-nfl-draft this MSNBC article] surveys what various experts, including the publications Slate and the Orlando Sentinel, have to say on the matter. This topic belongs in the lead section. As discussed above, it is the one aspect of Winston's career that nearly every story about him has covered. The article should reflect the bulk of coverage to date. -[[User:Edwardpatrickalva|Edwardpatrickalva]] ([[User talk:Edwardpatrickalva|talk]]) 17:15, 5 May 2015 (UTC)

{{u|Cla68}} added [[Special:Diff/681432015|a paragraph on a recent preliminary ruling in a civil lawsuit involving Winston]].

== Biased editing ==
 
As a Washington Examiner article points out,[http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/the-hunting-ground-crew-caught-editing-wikipedia-to-make-facts-conform-to-film/article/2576792] [[User:Edwardpatrickalva|Edwardpatrickalva]] has been editing this article and others in which he has a vested interest.

:It sure looks like {{u|Edwardpatrickalva}} discussed these changes above, no? And declared his COI on his talk page. Where's the problem such that an article at a publication typically considered an unreliable source for anything controversial beyond authors' personal opinions demands immediate on-wiki reaction? I'm not restoring the material myself because I'd rather not get involved in this sensitive [[WP:BLP]] issue without being certain (and I'm frankly not certain what the right course of action is -- I just know that "per an article at the Washington Examiner" is almost always a poor rationale for major changes to a controversial subject). &mdash; <tt>[[User:Rhododendrites|<span style="font-size:90%;letter-spacing:1px;text-shadow:0px -1px 0px Indigo;">Rhododendrites</span>]] <sup style="font-size:80%;">[[User_talk:Rhododendrites|talk]]</sup></tt> \\ 19:48, 20 November 2015 (UTC)

:::Others agreed with his edits, which were discussed at length above.

The word "bias" has lost all meaning, the way it's been thrown around by those so utterly convinced they are innocent of it. The bias is on the WE article, but the rest of Wikipedia's editors shouldn't need to suffer certain inaccuracies just because one article in a not terribly credible publication feels otherwise. Far more reputable sources tout the film's merits and deficits without resorting to the Washington Examiner's article. Kirby Dick's detractors usually have an agenda based on falsehoods. If COI is an issue here, focus on that instead of trying to say the edits are false when they're actually not, as demonstrated by the validations of other experienced editors on this talk page .

A COI does not absolutely forbid editing, but rather it's an admonishment to be careful. If a COI editor actually violates policies, then judge based on those infractions. While it's wisest for them to only use the talk page, it's not totally forbidden to carefully edit and seek consensus. If Alva had edit warred and shown ownership behavior, it would be another matter entirely, but he didn't.
::::: In this case, as evidenced by the interactions between Alva and other editors above, he was editing collaboratively, seeking their input and approval, and he received it. If editors here had no problem with his edits, then no one else has a right to object. If he had violated policies and edit warred, I'm sure they would have objected, and then he could get into trouble, and possibly be topic banned from editing the article itself. That did not happen because it was not necessary.
::::: It is the editors on THIS page who make up the consensus here. You're attacking Alva, who is a subject expert who did not hide his COI, and he's a newbie with very few article edits. [[WP:BITE|Don't bite the newbie.]] He cannot be expected to understand the complexities of this place. No harm has been done and he's been very cooperative, so AGF.

Though a medical examination of the complainant revealed bruised knees and semen on the woman's body—and the complainant identified Winston by name as her attacker a month later, Tallahassee police reportedly never obtained a [[DNA]] sample from Winston, never interviewed him, nor attempted to obtain video of the encounter taken by Seminoles teammate Chris Casher.
 
The source, however, says:
# Semen on underwear
# Bruises (does not mention knees) developed after the exam
# Does not link the semen to the medical exam
# Says they did not ''attempt'' to interview Winston for nearly two weeks - (only a picture caption says they did not interview him)
# Says the video was deleted before the police were aware it existed
 
I've replaced the text with the following:
 
The complainant developed bruises and semen was found on her underwear. 34 days later the complainant identified Winston by name as her attacker. Tallahassee police contacted Winston about 13 days later. No DNA sample was taken from Winston until the prosecutor took over the case, months later.

:''The largest one is whether — as some readers believe — The Times is on a one-sided crusade about sexual assault, especially on campus. Reporters and editors certainly have made that issue a high priority over the past year, not only on Florida State, but with an investigation of a poorly handled sexual assault claim at Hobart and William Smith College, and a recent article about a student accused of sexual assault at Columbia University.
:''After a debacle at Rolling Stone, with its flawed reporting of a rape accusation at the University of Virginia, every media organization pursuing this subject needs to take a hard look at itself. My reading of Times coverage does not suggest any runaway trains. What I’m seeing is hard-nosed and aggressive reporting that has put a harsh spotlight on an ugly underside of campus life.
:''The next is inadequate labeling, and this clearly needs to be fixed. The article — especially when read online — closely resembles a news story. The fact that Ms. Macur is not well known as a columnist (her Times bio calls her a sports reporter), and still occasionally has bylines on news stories, adds to the confusion. It would be easy to remedy this with the word or label “Opinion” atop columns. While that’s not an elegant design solution, it’s probably the clearest to readers. Something like that should happen — and fast. Mr. Stallman said that this incident had made that clear to sports editors, and that they would act on it. In fact, it’s a problem throughout The Times’s online offerings, not just in sports — a subject I expect to return to soon.
:''The final issue is the mixing of news and opinion in one article. The column’s transition from newsiness to sharp opinion was part of what caused Paul Marx of Towson, Md., to write to me: “I challenge you to read today’s Macur without wincing.”
:''The Times should have first covered the transcript as a news story, then had a columnist follow up. Using an opinion column to break news is not unheard-of and not necessarily inappropriate. But in this case, it just didn’t work.''
 
In short - Wikipedia must be on careful watch about opinion columns being used for claims of fact as though they were straight reportage. [[User:Collect|Collect]] ([[User talk:Collect|talk]]) 23:25, 31 December 2015 (UTC)

The way this post is written now is both grammatically incorrect and inaccurate in that it prioritizes a minor charge over a major one--making this article biased and non-adherent to Wikipedia's standards. To make this point clearer, compare it to the article regarding Robert Durst, accused of murder. One would put that Durst was accused of murder ahead of a discussion of his shoplifting history.

I do not understand why you would think this is not a notable topic. I have added this on 2 different occasions and fully cited with references from Sports Illustrated, ESPN, USA Today along with other legitimate news sources. It shows how Mr. Winston thinks and his character. I believe it speaks to the person he is - and I even included that he apologized for what he said "after the fact". I will add this to the end of the talk section and include my original text. I personally think Yankees10 oversteps sometimes and doesn't allow other editors to publish content. --[[User:bucsfannva|bucsfannva]] 8 October 2019 <!--Template:Undated--><small class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|undated]] comment added 14:07, 8 October 2019 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Careless driving==
I wanted to put up for debate whether or not the careless driving allegations are notable or not. Please share opinions. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000917307/article/jameis-winston-cited-for-careless-driving-in-crash <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Kkuchnir|Kkuchnir]] ([[User talk:Kkuchnir#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Kkuchnir|contribs]]) 19:23, 23 February 2018 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== How can it be "alleged" if he apologized? ==
 
It might be time to remove all the uses of the word "alleged" regarding the Uber driver assault. He literally apologized for it. "First and foremost, I would like to say I’m sorry to the Uber driver for the position I put you in", etc. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2018/06/28/jameis-winston-confirms-suspension-apologizes-to-uber-driver/

== Keep adding section on school incident only to have it removed (again) ==
 
== Last season as a Saint ==
I have added this to Mr. Winson's page several times but it continues to be removed. I believe it speaks to his character and the person he is - eventhough he has apologized for the incident (which was noted in the edit).
 
Last season, last game, and last play as a Saint, Jameis Winston was guilty of a unsportsmanlike transgression running a play out of victory formation to score a TD in the finale against the Atlanta Falcons. Some critics say the play was really much ado about nothing. [[Special:Contributions/2600:100C:A122:4FFB:5596:C85D:9CFC:D2F4|2600:100C:A122:4FFB:5596:C85D:9CFC:D2F4]] ([[User talk:2600:100C:A122:4FFB:5596:C85D:9CFC:D2F4|talk]]) 20:24, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
In February 2017 Winston made gender based comments while speaking to students at Melrose middle school in the Tampa Bay Area.. He said "All my young boys, stand up. The ladies, sit down, but all my boys, stand up. We strong, right? We strong! We strong, right? All my boys, tell me one time: I can do anything I put my mind to. Now a lot of boys aren't supposed to be soft-spoken." Winston said about girls: "But the ladies, they're supposed to be silent, polite, gentle. My men, my men (are) supposed to be strong. I want y'all to tell me what the third rule of life is: I can do anything I put my mind to. Scream it!" <ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/2017/02/24/jameis-winston-comments-about-girls-were-poor-word-choice/98347126/|title=Jameis Winston: Comments about girls were 'poor word choice'|website=USA TODAY|language=en|access-date=2019-10-06}}</ref> <ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/18747257/jameis-winston-tampa-bay-buccaneers-says-made-poor-word-choice-telling-female-students-silent|title=Jameis: Telling girls to 'be silent' poor wording|date=2017-02-23|website=ESPN.com|language=en|access-date=2019-10-06}}</ref> <ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.si.com/nfl/2017/02/24/ap-fbn-jameis-winston-school|title=Jameis Winston: Comments about girls were 'poor word choice'|website=SI.com|language=en|access-date=2019-10-06}}</ref> <ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.nydailynews.com/sports/football/jameis-winston-tells-class-girls-sit-silent-article-1.2980221|title=Jameis Winston tells grade school boys they ‘can do anything,’ but girls should ‘sit down ... be silent’|last=Augustine|first=Bernie|website=nydailynews.com|access-date=2019-10-06}}</ref>Parents and teachers who witnessed the speech felt the comments were derogatory towards girls and young women.
