I hope AP gets KTFO this game...

Just catching up on some reading this morning. I am a bit behind on the Adrian Peterson's son and the situation.

 

Its tragic when any child dies. His mother deserves all the support in the world.

 

But as far as AP is concerned, he is a dead beat loser. I hope he gets KTFO today. When you deny the child is yours for years and then acknowledge him only when forced to after a court confirms the DNA result is a cowardly irresponsible and cruel thing to do to a kid.

 

 

"Football is something I will always fall back on," he said. ”It gets me through tough times. Just being around the guys in here, that's what I need in my life, guys supporting me and just being able to go out and play this game I love. Things that I go through, I've said a thousand times, it helps me play this game to a different level. I'm able to kind of release a lot of my stress through this sport, so that's what I plan on doing."

 

 

Stress? Stress is raising a kid on your own while the father is making millions and denying any responsibility.

 

Sorry AP, you get zero sympathy. You weren't a father to him in life, you don't deserve anything in his death.

 

 

UPDATED....

Just read the article that says he did not know the child existed and was his until 3 months ago. Apparently he was planning to see him later this month. So I recant my previous statement. Still, its strange that he finds out in early July that he has a son, while nothing NFL related is happening, and doesn't plan on seeing him for 4 months. I'd like to think if I was a multimillionaire on vacation in the same situation I would act a little quicker. But you know, we can't judge. We can never judge.

Feel bad for AP and his family

 

Feel bad for the kids mother? You bet.

 

Feel bad for AP, hell no.

 

IMHO, he shoulders some of the blame for what happened to the kid. Maybe if he manned up and took responsibility the kid would have been raised under better conditions.

 

AP = Garbage.

ESPN and NFL network perpetuate this myth.

Its gonna make a good story if he runs for 250 and 3 TD's.

The facts don't matter.

 

 

Yup. I called this in another thread. Regardless of how much AP was in his son's life, the sensationalist media always loves a story like this....and so does the NFL. Personal tragedy into personal triumph. Americans eat that poo up. 

 

Remember last year vs the Chiefs? There were serious conversations being made about cancelling the game after the murder/suicide committed by the LB. Instead, the worst team in the league (record wise), which has been around since the inception of the NFL, was a delay of game penalty away from having their first unpenalized game in the history of their team. 

 

I'm convinced that the refs are going to be extra lenient towards the Vikes today and will do everything in their power for the Vikes to win and for AP to have a monster game. If the Panthers so much as pass gas in the wrong direction, punt the ball too high, or look at someone wrong ...expect serious consequences. It's just the invisible hand of the NFL spreading propaganda and creating a "story".

I was under the impression that Adrian found out the existence of his son 2 or 3 months ago.  That he didn't oppose the claim but supported the mother monetarily.  Also that they were planning to set up a get together before the incident.  Where are the sources that says Adrian knew about him for two years and combatted being the father?

Thanks for having the balls to say this. AP isn't the victim that the media makes him out to be. The child is the only victim.

Yup. But the media loves a story like this and if Peterson blows up today and carries his team to a W against the 1-4 Panthers, he's going to get some man of the year nominations. fuging stupid.

      DJ Moore. The quitting WR

      By fieryprophet · Posted

      This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By panfanman · Posted

      Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?

      Bucky Brooks eats humble pie. You want a couple of slices?

      When we didn't trade him to the Rams or the Bears (I believe the Bears said they would take one of Brown/ Burns/DJ Moore) we should have just signed him and kept him.  We should have traded him to the Rams obviously and we should have kept DJ and traded Burns.  We made all three wrong choices with Burns lol.
