    Q: How do you keep AP from beating his kid?

    A: Tell AP it's a playoff game.

    I had read that the 7 kids 5 moms thing is only speculated, as AP has refused to divulge such information. Which means it could me even more.

    Now there's a story on ESPN describing the discipline he experienced from his dad while growing up in TX. WHO CARES?!

    This is turning into the exact circus I figured it would.

    After careful consideration I've revised my stance on this. The child was 4. That is too young to be disciplining them as such. I can see spanking a 10 year old or something. 4 year old is just too young.

    I'm confused how you equate this to spanking.

    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    Spanking is a different discussion. It really doesn't matter if AP only intended to deliver the sort of spanking that you approve of. What he actually did is child abuse.

    I think I have adopted you as my surrogate online dad because you are a raging lunatic just like my real dad. My dad smacked me a lot, and only me, because I emerged from the womb rebellious and irritating. But despite his anger, he never came close to hitting me hard. I imagine you are all bark, no bite too.

    I remember one incident: I snatched the last sausage from the breakfast table. My dad rose to his feet and thundered, "Give me that sausage!" That phrase now is enshrined forever in family lore, it is sometimes yelled when somebody, say, snatches a TV remote at Thanksgiving.

    How do you say "Give me that chorizo!" in spanish?

    If one is still spanking their kid when the kid is 10, they've lost (The parent not the child, well, maybe the child as well.)

    I've changed my mind on this too. It takes a little while to absorb what happened. The little kid was stripped naked, lashed many times all over his body causing cuts. His hands were all cut up from trying to defend himself. Leaves stuffed in his mouth to shut him up.

    Let's hope so. Don't the Wilf's realize there are fantasy football owners all over this country who need to know one way or the other whether Peterson is going to play?

    This part of the Wilfs statement is particularly laughable (not that the situation causing the decision is at all laughable):

    "We are always focused on trying to make the right decision as an organization. We embrace our role – and the responsibilities that go with it – as a leader in the community, as a business partner and as an organization that can build bridges with our fans and positively impact this great region. We appreciate and value the input we have received from our fans, our partners and the community."

    Translation...when the bottom line started to be affected, we realized we messed up and reversed our previous snap decision.

    I'm not sure what the rush was to make this decision on Monday. Couldn't they have taken the time to privately take the temperature of the room, talk to corporate sponsors, some fans, press and get an idea of their outrage before making a decision seemingly in a vacuum and then having to reverse course the next day? That's embarrassing. I wonder how Rastak feels this morning.

    Really tired, unrelated to this stuff. They should have stuck to their original decision although that does make me a hypocrit since I was fine with them booting Chris Cook after he choked his girlfriend until her eyeballs popped out. I think this is really a matter of this dude being completely misguided in his beliefs. Hope he gets some help.

    Anyway, I really wish I could share in the outrage. I was pretty upset at the charges but at the end of the day we do have a legal system. As for football which is a minor part of it, doesn't concern me too much.

    A dude with that that many kids better get his shit straight when it comes to dealing with them.

    Last thing - did the NFL just make up that exempt list just for the hell of it? I've watched football since the late 60's and I've never heard of it.

    I was thinking the same thing Ras, because it never entered the national conversation until he was on it. My first thought was that it was an emergency measure the league put together to cover the owners, because "due process" wasn't cutting it on this one.

    Adrian Peterson placed on Exempt Cmsnrs Permission list at 1:52am ET. In politics, that's called a document dump.
