He'd be on probation, but that sort of incitement is real and powerful and demeaning and does she deserve to be fully absolved in the entire thing? And is he fully responsible?
2/ My issue is more about this: If you saw the video 9 months ago and said, "you know what - she was calling him this and that and this is how he responded." And then your wife's best friend saw it and posted it on her Facebook timeline and you immediately felt the need to display how horrified you felt and fired him.

2/ is the issue for me.

As much as I hate to lose him, beating a woman should be an automatic release. There is no excuse for that.

Look at the bright side. at least it wasn't Mahomes. We can recover from Hunt, if this would have been Mahomes it would have been lights out.

Many different opinions here, but if you owned your own company and saw one of your employees pull that, would you really not fire him?

Yeah, tell us all how you ripped Keith Ellison for beating the **** out of his GF. You know, where charges were actually filed. Oh yea, you can't.

Well if you know he lied about what happened, then that throws his claim she was yelling the N-word into serious doubt.

This is a perfect example of over stating the facts to justify the action the Chiefs took.

If you think that was "beating a woman", you could never be a fair judge of facts or an honest reporter.

That was so far from a beating it wasn't even close. :shake:

Most likely...Hunt was a bad ass RB. Anyone who says Ware can come in and do the same is fooling themselves.

I hate this whole "women are sacred creatures" thing now. There are some evil women in the world and this one is clearly one of them. She tried to cause trouble and she got it, and now she's being treated like a victim. She was the instigator.
