David Newton a little more serious about Hardy's situation.

[Chaos]

This is not the best way to get that "crap load of money" you were asking for Greg.

[bleys]

so much for Gettleman saying the advance was to keep Hardy working out with the team to "keep him close to me"...  

 

somewhat said in jest but not so much...   and then this happens.

[TANTRIC-NINJA]

More times than not...on a long enough timeline a NFL player just proves he wil be an idiot.

As a an of Hardy I hate this news and really letdown. I hope this humbles him.

[csx]

After some time thinking about it. Unless this is dropped I wouldnt be surprised if he is released.

[Davidson Deac II]

Some things might, but domestic abuse doesn't get swept under the rug so easily.

The league and the Panthers consider any possibility of violence against women dead serious.

 

Regarding the league, I wonder what will happen to Ray Rice if he doesn't go to prison?  So far, they haven't done, at least I don't remember hearing any punishment.  Although I am sure they will do something. 

 

But the Ravens have said they don't plan on releasing him.

Jerry Richardson has the Rae Carruth scandal burnt into his memory. Don't think he takes this lightly

[Ruff]

Depending on how this goes with the evidence/charges, it's possible that Greg is, in fact, released from the team. JR remembers what happened early on very vividly, and this isn't something to lightly gloss over.

 

This is after Frank Alexander goes and fails a drug test and gets suspended.

 

It's possible we see a starting DE rotation next year of Ealy and a player not currently on the team.

Certainly a senstive issue...should always be a serious issue.  Obviously more info needed, but the alleged victim having injuries is damaging.

 

It is very dissappoing news.

This is a lot different than the Rae Carruth situation

Nevertheless it is serious and disappointing

[Jump Zone]

I reserve judgment until the whole story is out. In about 95% of these types of cases, the charges are dropped by the alleged victim. I guess we will see how this one plays out.

Rotoworld:

Rice allegedly struck Janay Palmer, his then fiancée and now wife, unconscious at an Atlantic City hotel. He's applied for Pretrial Intervention Program, a diversionary program that permits certain defendants (typically first-time offenders like Rice) to avoid formal prosecution. If approved, Rice would receive probation without jail and undergo anger management. The prosecution has also offered a plea that includes probation. Either way, Rice isn't going to land behind bars. But even if he ends up without a true conviction, Rice can still be suspended under the league's Personal Conduct Policy

 

His actual trial is May 29th.

 

 

 

Ray Rice has never been in trouble before this incident.

If I read right, I don't think the victim is the one who initiated this. Police arrested him based on what they saw.

In that case, she could still ask to have the charges dropped and it would be done if the DA agrees. This being a high profile case though, could change how things are typically handled. (My wife works for an attorney and sees these types of cases all the time...)
