Re: NFL Off Topic

I think that the NFL should be applauded for its stance against age discrimination. Seems like every NFL referee is 60+ years old.

It's hard though...especially when I got my neighbor playing their franchise across the street...maybe I will occupy myself with Glamore Magazine.

Re: NFL Off Topic

The NFL and the Chiefs are going to get destroyed over this video and rightfully so. They knew about this incident the entire time and have done nothing about it. The fact that they have to KEEP having their hand forced on these issues and on the heels of Foster PR with the Redskins, they're gonna get roasted.

Re: NFL Off Topic

I was just thinking that the league had actually done a good job of staying out of the headlines for the wrong reasons.

Ratings were back on the rise, Offenses producing at record paces, young QBs balling out....and now we have this.

Re: NFL Off Topic

Surprised Ray Rice and Kaepernick aren't trending w/ all the outrage.

Hunt was sent home from practice when the video was released pending any further action.

This was investigated in February when it happened. She didn't press charges and he didn't face any punishment at the time.

Re: NFL Off Topic

The video is not good, and I expect a suspension. but the hyperbole surrounding it is a but obnoxious. It wasn't brutal. The worst hit came when he ran into another guy that pushed the guy into the girl. The kick was more like he tipped her over.

And while you never hit a girl, she was spoiling for that fight in a pretty big way. The cops dropped because it wasn't something that anyone would have gotten arrested over. But TMZ has been able to give it more traction by their headline and the frames they decided to use for pics in the story.

People equating this to Ray Lewis are really not being fair. Hunt will need to to be punished for putting himself in the situation and not handling it like an adult, but people are drawing some really weak comparisons.

See now, the NFL could've made this so much easier on themselves. I think the automatic punishment for domestic abuse/violence against women stuff is 6 games. Since she didn't press charges I could see them suspending him the first 4 games and leave it at that. Yet here we are, the NFL freaked out about this, covered it up and now it's out in the open in such a way that they're going to get roasted.


Sometimes "protecting the shield" goes too far.
