Greg Hardy suspended 10 games

[Montsta]

Nobody's forcing you personally to spend those bucks and/or watch their telecasts.

What does the NFL being a dirtbag organization have to do with my decision to support it?

I think cops are dirtbags too but I still pay my property taxes (their salaries).

He was one of my favorite players to watch...ever. Him, LT, Lott, Peppers, Barry Sanders and Smitty.

Thats a 50/50 crazy/sound ratio. It wouldnt surprise me if the entirety of athletes employed by the NFL is pretty close to being represented by that small sample size.

If the batman says so...

Nah, that's what you call batshit crazy

I don't think we are talking about the same thing. You are talking about Greg being guilty (he is), while I'm talking about the hypocritical landscape of the NFL to act like they care about the issue of DV when they immediately try to capitalize and make money off of it (they are).

A corporation?

Overly sensitive about their public image?

Because they want advertisers to continue to pay networks big money so that the networks can continue paying THEM big money?

Wowwwweee... who'd have ever thunk it?

(P.S. Do you think the players and the NFLPA are in it for charitable purposes?)

You probably noticed this, but you are not required BY LAW to support the NFL.

Everything points to his restraining her, not beating her. There is a difference. If a 290 man wants to beat a woman, I am pretty sure there would be more than a few scratches or light bruises. He probably wanted to choke the bitch, then thought better of it. He may have been better off going Ray Rice on her and taking his medicine.

Why are you acting like it's black and white? Just because he didn't put her in the hospital doesn't mean he didn't beat her.

He did choke her. Thus the photos showing bruises around her neck.

And you repeatedly calling the victim a "bitch" says a lot about you as a person. It also explains why you're defending a woman beater. It takes a real big man to refer to a woman as a "bitch."

I doubt that 10 game suspension will hold up on appeal.

Act like a drunk, drug-headed gold digging bitch, and that's what you get. She is at best a liar. I listened to some of the shenanigans about lying to the police about drugs.

Holder had her history. Hardy had never beaten on anyone before according to reports.

And, for the record, I don't support woman beaters, rapists, or anything of the nature. I tell my son all the time that the first rule of keeping out of trouble is not to put yourself in the situation. But, experience has taught me that sometimes you can still get jammed up, particularly with an unscrupulous woman. I tell him that if this happens always remember that "no is no", and if a woman decides that she is going to beat on you, then it is OK to restrain her.

Hardy was no saint in the situation, but neither was Holder. I believe that she did come at him some type of way, and his temper almost got the best of him. That being said, I don't think that he beat her. Should he have probably walked away? Yes. But basically if you don't want hands on you, then don't put hands on anyone else. That rule applies especially for a woman who is crazy enough to lay hands on a man.

I call it like I see it. If that disturbs you, then whatever. I find it disturbing how you and others are so quick to take a drunkard's word over someone that had never had a reputation for beating women. But by golly it is America.

Wow. Anybody else glad we didn't resign him?

I would have totally resigned him on the terms that the Cowboy's did. 

[rayzor]

just going to leave this here.

[gettlemanjack]

I'm glad we didn't re-sign him

[Mr. Scot]

just going to leave this here.

Yeah...That's just not right.
