Not sure why he did this. Now the media's lighting him up for "lying straight through his teeth" and "not showing remorse." Won't affect his chances of getting signed somewhere but only hurt him in the public eye. I don't think he's lying though, and I think our team's response in the aftermath before the Ray Rice video came out supports that. His situation is not comparable to Rice's or any other DV situations, and I think it's completely unfair to call him a "woman-beater" even if he did cause some of those bruises on her arms (as he said he and his friend tried to restrain her). Still hanging on to a thread of hope that we re-unite Monsters Inc. by bringing the Kraken back for peanuts, but I know it's not happening.

"I never hit her"

Well, now how can you explain those bruises? 

"I never said I didn't do something wrong"

 

The fug Hardy?

He wasn't responding to "how can you explain those bruises?" Schefter started it out by saying that Hardy claimed to do nothing wrong and that he's innocent, and Hardy responded to that by saying he never said he didn't do anything wrong, but that he is innocent. Hardy's clearly a dumbass and brought this on himself. However, I do not think he's a woman-beater like everyone in the public is making him out to be.

I might be in the minority, but I do believe he is innocent. I don't believe for a second that he threw he on the futon or in the bathtub or whatever. You just listen to the 9-1-1 call and that doesn't jive with all the mannerisms of the call. He is like "Get this crazy coked-out bitch out of my house, PLEASE!".. 

Then watching the live twitter updates come through during the trial - I felt it was a wrap until the sentence was handed down and was floored.. Yes, he was stupid to be in the situation, but I never thought he did what he was accused of.

No doubt amigo.  As long as he's unsigned and JR remains pissed off at the other owners and the fact we lost in February I'm not giving up.  Same "crime" would have gotten him a game or two before the FUGGING RICE VIDEO (remember the now joke of a 6 game DV rule was AFTER the incident).

I have consistently said that the bruises/marks are consistent with someone trying to restrain someone, not beat the poo out of them as has been pushed by many. If Hardy wanted to beat the poo out of most people, he could do it. Moreover, but for that unfortunate incident, Hardy doesn't have a history of beating anyone, much less women. That's just the fact of the matter.

The truth of that night is nebulous enough to give him the side eye, but not enough to label him as a woman beater in my estimation. If you're going to label him, call him a dumbass. But that doesn't warrant a lifetime ban from the NFL.

ITT, idiots will still want Hardy back in 3...2...1...

Just to clarify, I don't think anyone wants him back to teach Sunday School to Junior.  But he's done his time, would play like a man possessed, would be the best bang for buck in football, and would take the 2016 Panthers from best team in the league to unstoppable juggernaut.

      Steelers Trade WR Pickens to the Cowboys

      Like your sense of humor.  The answers we seek often lies in the question we ask.

      XL makes a list of sophomore breakout candidates

      By Icege · Posted

      This is going to be one of the more competitive camps we've had at WR in awhile... The only locks are XL, TMac, and AT. Coker and Horn Jr both have strong chances at making it. I can see David Moore being WR6. Renfrow might be the WR7 if they decide to carry that many, or he could join Dan Chisena on the PS (who gets stashed to help on ST more than at WR).

      How would you feel if Bryce did this in 2025

      By CRA · Posted

      Sure, but I have long acknowledged he got better.  He went from horrific to mid-lower end starter.  But now you can’t say that…..you got people wanting to spin top 10 play if you look at it this way, great deep ball passer if you only acknowledge x.   I mean the headline in that article is nice for fans to run with.   But in reality Bryce Young was not the best deep passer in week 12.  Far from it.  He went 2 of 7 with no TDs deep.  The week was full of guy who went something along the lines of 3 of 4 with a bomb TD.   So Bryce then gets appointed best deep passer for say….plays like a 50/50 jump ball while trailing late to a fully covered AT that goes incomplete but could have been something given how the defender played it….not an actual good play.  But that could have been a good play.  I mean, same play could have been a pick if everything else was the same and the defender who had AT blanketed played the ball better (nothing changes for Bryce in terms of what he did.  It’s just a 50/50ish ball to someone covered)….and his entire best deep passer week 12 is built off plays that never happened over guys that actually got it done.   we should be happy Bryce with from shouldn’t of been drafted play to serviceable starter last year.  But all this spin that he is somehow actually sneaky great just ain’t something I’m doing yet
