Hardy is a lot like many of us when we were young, making mistakes that are corrected with learning from past experience. His main mistake was associating himself with the wrong people. He was set to make a small fortune and bad people will take advantage of his situation. If Hardy is found guilty, we did the right thing for the team. If he is found not guilty of the charge against him, then Richardson should have a talk with Hardy about his future and how people who have made mistakes can turn their life around and be a positive influence on those who have looked up to him.
