I didn't suggest the NFL-NFLPA agreement should have a contrition clause.Originally Posted by pbmax
But I should think an NFL team would be foolish to sign AP under current circumstances.
I think you will see AP seeing the light publicly, sincere or not.
70% of the Earth is covered by water. The rest is covered by Al Harris.
Fucking A.

Who presumably is so far removed from Helter Skelter due to age that it didn't bother her like it should.

No longer the member of any fan clubs. I'm tired of jinxing players out of the league and into obscurity.
Nah. He's still a charmer, and for some women, getting people to commit brutal murders for you IS tHe charm.

Maybe that could be your Drew Barrymore strategy?
But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

I am very relieved I didn't have to make that joke.
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
Isn't that cute.

Formally Numb, same person, same views of M3
I'm sure I understand this less and less. How can he not have been sufficiently punished by now?

I love the judgement that being on the Commissioner's list and being paid isn't punishment.
1. Any other line of work being suspended with pay isn't considered a disciplinary measure?
2. Costs him a year of accrued service which can have implications for his compensation and retirement, not to mention his contract not tolling.

Another good line of thought I saw is that future football contracts are based on present performance, so if there is no present performance, there will be no future contract.
Add to that that the judges ruling (in Minnesota!) on the Pat and Kevin Williams case, where he decided that their suspension (pending appeal?) constituted irreparable harm.
IMO the NFL is counting on the public not having any sympathy for a guy who sat at home earning $10M+, and they're probably mostly right.

I found this covered it pretty well.

Not yet, big boy.
They are merely engaged, for now.
The word out there now is that Adrian Peterson is considering retirement.
All the same there's this:

Am I the only one who thinks Peterson has screwed/is screwing this whole fiasco up every step of the way? You abused an innocent 4-year old boy, and others before that. Get counseling, take your medicine and get past it son! The NFL has a strong interest in not being portrayed as going light on battering women and children.
Don't tweet about how your son can really take a beating, then admit you smoked pot before a mandatory drug test, then fight the discipline the whole way. That ain't good for business and you don't have a right to play in the NFL.
Yup.

He has made the public errors you mention, but he was largely headed down the path of no resistance early in this by doing a plea-deal in Texas to the case. He also agreed to the Commissioner's List placement with pay. Which, by the way, if you are a player and are relying on the good faith of the League when dealing with any matter, you are an idiot (same with NFLPA).
However, that has now become the second best argument the League has for treating him harshly (public acknowledgment would be first). The expectation was that the case against him for the original charge was weak and he could have easily beat it. Had he down so, the League would have less of a case and Peterson would have more of one if he takes this to Federal Court.
