The Letter of the Law and Goodell

[Chiefshrink]

Regardless of your personal feelings about Tyreek Hill, if Goodell is to proceed by the Letter of the Law then how does he go about dealing with Hill if again the DA still chooses not to press charges even after this audio release ? Poll forthcoming.

Jones was being escorted by security from a nightclub for attempting to urinate on the dance floor when he shoved an officer into a wall and was eventually tasered.

Aaron Hernandez TE, was convicted with first-degree murder.

Chad Johnson WR, was arrested on a simple domestic battery charge, after being accused of head-butting his newlywed wife during an argument in front of their home in Davie, Fla.

Aqib Talib CB, allegedly battered a taxi driver and he was arrested by Florida Highway Patrol and booked into the Pinellas County jail, charged with resisting arrest without violence and simple battery. In March 2011, police in Garland, Texas issued a felony warrant for Talib for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon after he was accused of firing a gun at his sister's boyfriend.[82] He was later released on $25,000 bond. Talib was indicted on the charge in May 2011.

Montee Ball RB, Domestic violence

Brandon Spikes LB, Accused of leaving the scene of a crash in which a woman and boy in another car suffered minor injuries.

Willie Andrews S, Accused of pointing gun at girlfriend's head, assault with a deadly weapon.

Bob Kraft owner, charged with 2 counts of soliciting another to commit prostitution.

Just a partial list, but you get the idea. The Pats organization is no better morally or ethically than the Chiefs. In fact, considering the multiple cheating scandals, the Aaron Hernandez catastrophe, and Mr. Kraft's indecency, it's pretty clear that the Chiefs are the cleaner organization overall.

Every NFL team has their own list just like the one you posted here, I assure you.

Oh, I know they do; that wasn't the point of my post, I thought I made that clear. My only point was actually a counter-point to the Pats fan's post, that seemed to say that the Chiefs as an organization are somehow less ethical than the Pats, which is a pure canard.

What people are upset about is the immense blow back when nobody has facts.

It's pure emotion-driven madness, and I'm not talking about the Tyreek Hill issue.

Me? I'm not trying to bait anybody. Did you see the poll options or the comments on the first page of the thread?

Oh no doubt!! I had this same conversation with the same person reminding him of Hernandez a couple of years back and like he did here he had no rebuttal and ran.

You have no sense of humor do you?

I don't really see how calling people who think child abuse is wrong a "liberal" or "SJW" is humorous.

No suspension but will be on the exempt list for this season.

That’s kind of bs on the NFL’s part. They will have had plenty of time to make a decision on punishment.

Who said anything about 'child abuse' being humorous per se??

Go study the term "virtue signaling" then study Brooke Pryor from the Star and how she rolled this story out with NO EVIDENCE to this point btw and then study how the majority of the press handle controversial stories with NO EVIDENCE-see Russia investigation on Trump. Go study how Goodell has handled conduct policies and punishment since Ray Rice to Zeke to Kareem Hunt and now TH and you can see how he has evolved over time to realize he needs a good product on the field(pressure from owners).

I agree. If the commissioner does this he is saying "Guilty until proven innocent" which is hypocritical especially with no charges being filed.

I'm okay with 4 games due to the bad audio comment but that's all they have and that still does not prove he hurt his kid.

So, wanting to have fewer criminals/woman-beaters/child-abusers in the league is a bad thing, and it's all the media's fault that they are exposing said abusers?

Why would he get suspended?

Because he might have done something terrible. That’s how it works now.

I would hope that we never draft another high-risk prospect again, I believe it would be the best course of action for this club not just for the immediate time being but for the long run as well.
For every Tyreek Hill there is a Megatron. Choose the Megatron and avoid the headache, this isn't hard.
