If your boss likes you enough to give you carte blanche use of his private jet for your children's medical needs, then I'd think he'd at least listen to you when vouching for the integrity of someone else.

Only problem is the NFLPA is weak and the NFL is strong.

Again, in my post I said that in order to suspend Hardy, I think the NFL needs the court documents. This includes bench trial transcripts and police reports. You keep using the word "proof". The NFL is not a government entity. They are a business. They are a business that collectively bargained with their union workforce to give the commissioner the authority to make a judgement call (again, not a proof call, a judgement call) when suspending players for conduct that the commissioner believes to be detrimental to the league. I am not saying I agree with it, but it's reality.

I'm not saying the documents will say Hardy was doing coke. Just that there were illegal drugs either being done at his house, or that someone had been doing them and then went to his house to continue the party. Not to mention I think this whole thing happened really early in the morning which usually means come was involved. The point is that the NFL can suspend you for conduct detrimental to the league simply for giving them a public black eye. The players collectively bargained for that, and gave Goodell the power to make that judgement call. They botched and moaned but at the end of the day back in 2011 they flinched before the owners did and this is what they get for allowing that kind of control to Goodell.

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/02/13/nfl-formally-seeks-access-to-greg-hardy-court-file/ The NFL wants pertinent information relating to Hardy's case so that they can have a leg on to suspend him. Even though the NFLPA is a public defender compared to the NFL's F. Lee Bailey, I do think they would have a field day without this. Disregard the dismissal of charges. That doesn't matter in any way, shape, or form. What matters is if the NFL gets copies of these previously sealed court documents that show Hardy drinking and partying with a girl who was doing cocaine, and that partying led to a 'probable' physical altercation and communicated threats to that girl, then the NFL WILL ABSOLUTELY suspend Hardy. The question at that point then is where on the 2-6 game spectrum will he land? One could argue that he should get the two that was made a precedent with Ray Rice. Goodell could then argue fug you its 6 games because your Union lawyers are a joke. I'm more interested to see if the court overturns the motion to seal these records because the NFL is making the argument that due to the dismissal of charges they are no longer classified as preparatory documents needed to make a case against a defendant. What's also interesting is that they want access to the transcripts that wouldn't even exist if Hardy's attorney didn't pay to have them done during the bench trial. If my employer thought I was stealing and the only evidence of me doing so was a video I made on my phone, I certainly wouldn't be giving them my phone to use it against me. Of course on the other hand that would give them grounds to say ok then you are hiding something Bye Felicia. In the words of Jeffrey Lebowski; "This is a very complicated case Maude. A lot of ins, lot of outs, lotta what have yous."

Whatever happened to sunbunny? I think that was her name anyway.

I agree. I'm throwing out hypotheticals, I don't actually think they will play out that way though.

RR gets my vote even if he doesn't want it.

He obviously won't play for free or vet min and there's a 99.99% chance he won't be back. But you can't make light of it if he signed a one year deal to play for say $5MM. For an NFL player in his prime where your future isn't guaranteed, that would show A LOT of humility on Hardy's part IMO.

Let's not forget he claimed to eat an entire bowl of cereal without a spoon. That's just crazy talk.

Honestly depends on OP's history. Much like the Kraken where a history of bad decisions makes a dismissal of charges kind of a moot point, if the poster has exhibited a history of being an idiot, I'd probably ban. If it was say an SCP or Catman72 or Jackofalltrades that did it you would have to assume they were just trying to break a news story and provide the Huddle with the latest panthers news.

That wolf guy from the man show that used to drink two beers in two seconds... I trained him.

Yes you do

Matt Ryan, Mr. Belting and Sarah McLaughlin? Count me in. It's only Thursday but I can call in sick tomorrow.

If I die tomorrow and get reincarnated I want to come back as Gettleman's waistband play sheet.

I respect you teeray and would love to have you run as my vice mod, so if I die or can't fulfill the duties of my office you can take over. We'll be running on the "if you actually use the term 'bae' toward your lady friend then you are awful" platform. Also free beer in the "undisclosed location" they send us off to everytime there is a credible terrorist threat.

I hacked Dexterity's Huddle account and posted a fake Ian Rapoport tweet in order to make him look bad and get him not just the 24-hour, but the permaban, thereby ensuring that there would only ever be one Dex of any kind on the Huddle. Game, blouses.

It's not a lie... ...if YOU believe it.

The Huddle will be even mightier in five years time, And there shall in that time be rumours of things going astray, and there will be a great confusion as to where things really are, and nobody will really know where lieth those little things with the sort of raffia work base, that has an attachment…at this time, a friend shall lose his friends’s hammer and the young shall not know where lieth the things possessed by their fathers that their fathers put there only just the night before around eight o’clock...

What if I stimulate them with treats while listening to Queen? Perhaps some Sour Patch Kids and Bohemian Rhapsody?
