I shared a story a month or so ago where a friend ran into a Chiefs player in KC a while back and joked with him to tell Hill to get OJ's lawyers.

The player got extremely serious and immediately went to explaining that Hill was a really good person.

You can blow that off all you want Eleazer but in light of what we have found out it through all of this it seems like the only people invested in burning Hill to the ground is the KC media.

"All I have to do is go 3 years without getting in trouble and it gets legally expunged like it never happened vs taking a chance at a trial?"

"Where do I sign?"

Exactly.

I'm pretty sure it can be capped with this , 2014 is completely meaningless to the story they were proven to be false about. So stop trying to spin the **** out of the story to cover your ass, you were wrong, admit it.

Yeah, I don't generally like to post complete articles because I think we owe it to content creators to give them their click.

But I posted the whole one here because I'm hopeful that this can be the end of that for many of us.

I was willing to maybe cut Mellinger a small amount of slack because he would at least acknowledge a couple of mistakes, even if he was unwilling to acknowledge all of them. But sorry Sam, you're just gonna have to be collateral damage here.

The behavior of the Star here is wholly unacceptable and they need to understand that.

Even a strong case takes time/effort/resources to make if the guy on the other side wants to dig his heels in and make you go to trial. Even a fairly straightforward jury trial takes a day to conduct and several days to prepare.

Meanwhile, you can plea that thing out and draw up the paperwork in an hour. Now you've bought probably 16-18 hours you can throw at someone who WON'T accept a plea or who's engaged in even more damning behavior.

It's all about volume.

Thanks for responding.

2014 doesn't matter anymore unless a pattern exists. There does not seem to be any obvious signs of that. Just speculation at best. At this point, the NFL isn't doing anyone any favors not releasing their ruling. Once it's released most news sources will move on unless something groundbreaking happens.

Eleazars game is that we're all supposed to "not feel good about cheering for Tyreek" whatever that means.

I just can't understand a Newspaper intentionally trying to bring down their Home team.

Thought: If the full audio makes him look worse, why the **** did KCTV5 edit it?

You know the answer to that...because it doesn't. This just more bullshit spin to try to get people to read it and agree with them because they they made everyone think he broke his sons arm so why not this?

Yeah, good point. Hopefully it will just die out.

If you wanted to be a real ****ing asshole.....someone could take all the stories they've done on criminal justice reform and exonerated prisoners, gather all of those links/stories and then email them to the whole sports department and simply ask "so you don't believe any of this shit either right? make sure you let all the people who did these pieces know your stance"

SJW morality trumps all. These are activists, not journalists.

I don't think any of those people are from Kansas City.....they view anything like that as an opportunity to blow this shithole for a bigger more liberal city.

He plead guilty and paid the penalty for 2014, that matter from a legal standpoint is resolved. But CP can't go around claiming he was innocent back then when he said the opposite, even though we would all feel better if he hadn't abused her.

And with respect to the Star piece, they just pointed out that it's typical for even admitted abusers to later claim, and sometimes truly believe, that they never did anything wrong. Doesn't necessarily mean that describes Hill, but it's still true.
