Actually six games. Patrick Peterson dropped his appeal. Six games.

Cardinals’ CB Patrick Peterson now will miss the first six games: Arizona’s regular-season opener vs. the Lions, then games at Baltimore, at home against the Panthers and Seahawks, at Cincinnati and at home against the Falcons.

I thought you got 4 games for PED's.  TD got 4 games last year.  Did something change?  Did he have all the PED's in his system at the same time?

I know it makes you wonder. Maybe TD got 4 for being the man he is. Man of the year award, veteran leader, etc.. I'm sure Jerry pulled some strings around the time TD got caught and it's not surprising he only got 4 games. Peterson getting 6 doesn't shock me, that's probably protocol now. Also, maybe it use to be 4 games, could be 6 now, who knows.

If you want to be the best you play the best.  He would be a good test for our young receivers.  His suspension is unfortunate for the Cards.  As far as I know he does not have a history of being a jerk....if so I likely would have a different opinion.

I'll take any and all breaks we can get. You don't get any extra brownie points for beating teams at their best. Ws are Ws and Ls are Ls. Especially when it's a situation where a guy was knowing cheating and then tried to further cheat by diluting his sample. That shows you for sure it was no "tainted supplement" issue. He knew he was using a banned substance and he tried to take further action to disguise it. He brought it on himself. No pity from me.

    • Been here since the Coliseum days. Hornets were the first pro team I ever rooted for. If they're ever going to get out of the gutter they have to establish a culture. They are trying to do that. I have no idea if it will be successful but it's a start.
    • I don’t think I'd go that far but there is definitely legitimate reason to ask how much he actually values winning and being great as a basketball player. He is very easily distracted with off the court stuff. This has been a public criticism of people like LeBron James with some of the newer generations of "stars". And it is 1000% valid and needed to be said. All I can say is I hope this is the year. If it is it will be apparent fairly early on. But I get the sense if the same themes continue as the upcoming season progresses the FO could look to move him before the trade deadline. It would suck for a multitude of reasons and I don't want to see it happen but if it did it would be on LaMelo and LaMelo alone because they've given him the keys and are finally putting pieces around him. If he wants to be a great basketball player and win he will be here and do what is necessary for the team to be successful. If not well....
    • Haha.  I remember my first Hornets season.
