Mayweather has been charged with beating up his wife how many times. Where is the outrage over that?
i don't know if ray rice will be back. more to do with his age combined with the stigma that goes with signing him. he's 27. if he sits out 2 years he will be 29 which is old by running back standards.Quote:

*Fantasy owners take note*
Vikings already deactivated him for Sunday's game after he was indicted for reckless or negligent injury to a child
The 4-year-old son said that "Peterson put leaves in his mouth when he was being hit with the switch while his pants were down.
Sports Radio 610 in Houston obtained a draft of the police report which says Peterson admitted that he did, in his words, “whoop” one of his children last May while the boy was visiting him in Houston.
When the 4-year-old boy returned to Minnesota, his mother took him to a doctor. The police report said the boy told the doctor Peterson had hit him with a branch from a tree.still
The doctor told investigators that the boy had a number of lacerations on his thighs, along with bruise-like marks on his lower back and buttocks and cuts on his hand.
The police report says the doctor described some of the marks as open wounds and termed it “child abuse.” Another examiner agreed, calling the cuts “extensive.
According to police reports, the child, however, had a slightly different story, telling authorities that “Daddy Peterson hit me on my face.” The child also expressed worry that Peterson would punch him in the face if the child reported the incident to authorities. He also said that he had been hit by a belt and that “there are a lot of belts in Daddy’s closet.” He added that Peterson put leaves in his mouth when he was being hit with the switch while his pants were down. The child told his mother that Peterson “likes belts and switches” and “has a whooping room.”
Peterson also allegedly said via text message to the child’s mother that he “felt bad after the fact when I notice the switch was wrapping around hitting I (sic) thigh” and also acknowledged the injury to the child’s scrotum in a text message, saying, “Got him in nuts once I noticed. But I felt so bad, n I’m all tearing that butt up when needed! I start putting them in timeout. N save the whooping for needed memories!”
In further text messages, Peterson allegedly said, “Never do I go overboard! But all my kids will know, hey daddy has the biggie heart but don’t play no games when it comes to acting right."
When Peterson was asked how he felt about the incident, he said, “To be honest with you, I feel very confident with my actions because I know my intent.” He also described the incident as a “normal whooping” in regards to the “welps” on the child’s buttocks, but that he felt bad immediately when he saw the injuries on the child’s legs. Peterson estimated he “swatted” his son “10 to 15” times, but he’s not sure because he doesn’t “ever count how many pops I give my kids.

Whether Rg3 is injured or not, shouldn't the better QB Cousins be starting over him?
--- Charles Barkley on Adrian Peterson: 'Every black parent in the South' whips their children
Barkley: "I'm from the South. I understand Boomer's (Esiason) rage and anger ... but he's a white guy and I'm a black guy. I don't know where he's from (editor's note: Esiason grew up in Long Island), I'm from the South. Whipping -- we do that all the time. Every black parent in the South is going to be in jail under those circumstances."
Rome: "It doesn't matter where you're from: Right is right and wrong is wrong."
Barkley: "I don't believe that because, listen, we spank kids in the South. I think the question about whether Adrian Peterson went overboard -- Listen, Jim, we all grow up in different environments. Every black parent in my neighborhood in the South would be in trouble or in jail under those circumstances."
Rome: "My thing is: I don't want to tell anybody how to raise their kids and I really don't want anybody telling me how to raise my kids. But let's make a distinction between 'child rearing' and 'child abuse.' That was child abuse. There's no fine line here."
Barkley: "I think there's a fine line. Jim, I've had many welts on my legs. I've gotten beat with switches -- and I don't even like the term. When the media talks about it, 'beating a child'--
Rome: "But that's what that was, Charles."
Barkley: "We called it 'spanking' or 'whipping' our kids."
Rome: "If I see open wounds or bruises on a body that is a beating."
Barkley: "Sure. I think those pictures are disturbing. And I think Adrian said 'I went overboard.' But as far as being from the South, we all spanked our kids -- I got spanked, me an my two brothers"--
Rome: "But then, Chuck, not now, right? 1964 is one thing, 2014 is another. Maybe we need to rethink this thing."
Barkley: "And I totally agree with that. But I think we have to really be careful trying to teach other parents how to discipline their kids. That's a very fine line."

The "experts" criticized Mike Shanahan for drafting Cousins, because why draft a QB after you took one in the first round? Well it looks like he made the right move, because RGIII seems to be injury prone, and he is the better QB. If the Redskins owner was not in love with RGIII he would see that.Quote:

Dwyer head-butted his wife (a la Chad Ochocinco) and threw a shoe at his 17-month old son
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Bxxg7qSIcAAtUoK.jpg:large
Arizona Cardinals running back Jonathan Dwyer head-butted his wife and broke her nose after she refused his sexual advances, and punched her in the face the next day, police said Thursday. ...
In the first encounter, police say Dwyer attempted to kiss and undress his wife, but she refused. Someone who heard the argument reported the assault to police, who showed up at the apartment but did not make an arrest. Dwyer hid in a bathroom and the wife denied he was in the home because the running back threatened to kill himself in front of her and their child if she told police about the assault, police said.
The next day, Dwyer punched his wife with a closed fist on the left side of her face, according to police. He also punched walls and threw a shoe at his 17-month-old son, who was not injured.
As his wife tried to call police, Dwyer grabbed her cellphone and threw it down from the home's second story. Witnesses told police that Dwyer's wife said, "I'm calling the police" as she held her swollen face and clutched her son.
During his police interview, Dwyer acknowledged hiding in the bathroom when police responded to the first argument and sending a photo of a knife with suicidal threats. Dwyer denied committing an assault, though he acknowledged that he punched walls in his home, threw a phone and that his wife bit his lip during the disputes, according to the police report. As he was released from jail Thursday, he said he never hurt his son.
Freed on $25,000 cash bond and ordered to wear electronic monitoring device on charges of:
-aggravated assault
-preventing someone from calling 911
Dwyer, 25, a first offense of domestic abuse results in a six-game suspension under the new personal conduct policy, which was amended in the wake of the controversy surrounding Rice.
lol 6 game suspension. he's no superstar, he won't be back, but ray rice and adrian peterson will.
innocent til proven guilty though, right.
the wife was asking for it, huh.
kids today need to be punished, yeah.
if i did that shit and my job found out, i'd be fired, and since i live in a small city where word gets around, pretty much unemployable around town. fuck these punk ass spoiled little pussies. who the fuck hasn't wanted to beat the hell out of their wife from time to time?
i'm the master of plaster i've put so many holes in walls, but i never would lay my hands on my wife in anger, i guess that makes ME the punk in the twisted minds of all the apologists out there, almost all of whom don't even have a wife or girlfriend and are most likely virgins.
dudes with wives or girlfriends who like to say that women get what they deserve would never say that shit around their wives or girlfriends. instant shitstorm and grounded from the pussy for a month
maybe that's what happened with jonathan dwyer. he defended his fellow running backs, his wife took offense and wouldn't give him any ass, so he had to keep it real and beat the shit out of her and practice playing catch the shoe with his kids head
'The Daily Show' Takes the NFL and Adrian Peterson to Task
http://cdn.thewire.com/media/img/upl...lead_large.png
The Daily Show took a rare ten-minute segment to dissect the NFL's recent wave of horrifying revelations on last night's show – and host Jon Stewart was in fine form.
The NFL is clearly a hot spot for Stewart (he got admirably fired up when covering the Ray Rice debacle last week) which makes it so fun to watch him tear into the organization.
On the committee of four women appointed to shape domestic abuse policies: "You know your business model is in rough shape when you need to appoint your own in-house Special Victims Unit."
On potential league response to Adrian Peterson: "Well, I guess the NFL will have to form a panel of children now."
On Peterson saying he's not a child abuser: "You beat a four-year-old with a tree branch. Here's a tip ... you can't do something to a four-year-old that you're not allowed to do to a 300-pound lineman in pads. ... Actual vikings don't treat their children like that."
One bit Stewart found particularly delicious was the reason why the NFL reversed their position on Peterson: because of pressure from sponsor Anheuser-Busch.
"Wow. So the NFL succumbed to beer pressure," he said to the audience's delight. "How crazy is this? A company that sells alcohol is the moral touchstone of the NFL."
Stewart's final twist of the knife was reserved for the league's stupidity about supposed 'distraction' Michael Sam. "Remember those days?" Stewart asked, unable to mask his smile. "Oh, what the NFL wouldn't do right now for that kind of distraction."
