One small thing that helps Hardy's chances of playing Sunday....

Personally I cheer them as players not people.

I believe if the NFL doesn't suspend Hardy after it's investigation, the Panthers are in the free to play him.  With women executives reviewing Hardy's case, if they say it's okay for him to play, all the media crybabies will be soothed to sleep.  Hopefully they will finish their review this week before the game.  I know that is pushing it when it comes to investigations.

Bob Costas won't have to mention football or even talk about X's and O's if Hardy plays Sunday night.

Sounds like the NFL is going to step in and suspend him.

[Jimmy]

What everyone needs to remember. We can only deactivate him for 3 more games and if we suspend him we can only do that for 4 games per NFL policy. Total of 7 more games. Anything longer will have to come from the league office unless we cut him which we won't do. The NFL has put us in a bad situation. It's not popular right now but I think the court process should be allowed to finish before anything else is done with Hardy. Let him play.

With the way Addison played last week, and Greg potentially being distracted by other things, we might be better off if Addison starts.

now if we could just face a 3rd string RT every week

Fans cheer and they are insensitive. Fans boo and the Panthers look foolish.

Booing would be foolish.

[Cpt slay a ho]

we need Greg don't fool yourselves

If the NFL suspends him, we're in the clear. That's what I'd prefer. Is it fair to Hardy if he is eventually form innocent? No. But it was his fault to be involved with the crazy woman and he has brought this drama to our franchise, something that's in his contract that he can be suspended for. Unfortunately, someone sold out to media pressure and benched him.

We are not playing Hardy with Bob Costas in the building. He will spend the entire pregame show lecturing the Panthers, the NFL, and America on how it's their fault domestic violence happens all over the world. He will tell us all how embarrassed he is to cover this game then go home, cash his check, and make a payment on his toupee.

Suspend him for what, exactly?

 

Being accused of something, having a judge hear evidence and him requesting a jury trial that has yet to occur?

They would have to because I wouldn't.

So now the NFL is going to suspend people based on crazy people they're involved with?

 

Daniel Snyder is bat-poo crazy, too....

 

[Fiz]

fair or not he's probably going to be suspended.

 

Best get it out of the way now.
