That is vastly inaccurate. 

Pretty sure it isn't though but it's hard to know what the fug is what

How does anyone make sense of that vague poo. I don't' even see where Ian Rappaport gets what he said from. I think the delineation is civil vs criminal

This post is top level scumbag douchery even coming from you.

I wasn't saying it was my opinion.  It's what I'm speculating is happening/will happen.  The NFL doesn't care about morals or ethics.  If the video of Ray Rice never came out, he would have played the rest of his career out like nothing ever happened.  The NFL only acted because they had to with the video being leaked.  Prior to that, they had already "dealt" with it and elected to essentially do nothing.  Same with the Zeke example, he honestly probably wouldn't be suspended if a video hadnt came out of him groping a woman.  Donte Stallworth killed a man while drunk driving and still came back and played in the NFL.  Chris Johnson is rumored to have had the guys who shot him and his associates assassinated as all part of a much bigger drug operation - he still played an entire career in the NFL.  Roethlisberger more than likely raped a woman and was allowed to play an entire career AND be a face of the NFL.  Pacman Jones had a lengthy rapsheet early on in his career and also was able to finish out his career.  The NFL doesn't care about character.  They care about money.  Period.  Owners don't care about character so long as it doesn't inhibit them from winning and making money.  Period.

And I was unaware I was a scumbag before, but nice to know.

Another CB, of course!  We are going to usher the in golden age of "double-dime".  You heard it here first...3 down linemen and 8 DBs.

2 straight off seasons dedicated to stacking this defense but still have more holes? Do they really need anymore young players to be great? Experienced players is needed more now and develop who you already have.

I'm not sure Robert Kraft's situation compares. His was with a willing participant. Albeit, a paid participant. But sex work shouldn't be illegal anyways.  

We don't know that she was willing.  A lot of women are forced into that work unwillingly.  I get what you're saying, but again, with money comes power, and those with power get to tell the stories.

The morality argument for any NFL team is laughable at best...

I don't want Watson anymore but if his lawyer makes that stuff go away he'll be back in the league, most likely. I'd much rather suffer thru more Sam and get a better draft pick than sign a guy who's an alleged predator to save the season when we shouldn't have had high hopes anyway, just would be a total dummy move ESPECIALLY when you're already getting bad press for roster mismanagement and people are questioning your competency as coaches of offense.

Well he’s probably asked people in the league office if they plan on placing Watson on the Exempt List assuming he’s traded…

Hmmm, not sure you know the entire story, the ethnic workers at that "spa" were supposedly human trafficed.   Again, not his fault, but he should not have put himself in that situation especially given his status.  Regardless if YOU think it should be legal or not, where it took place, it WAS illegal.  He should have went to Nevada if he wanted to get his freak on with 'immigrant spa workers' legally.  Then again, the arrogant bastard didn't think he's get caught either, until he did.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
