DC Greg Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Yeah, forget a trial. Everyone gather together and stone him to death. Que the drama. Of course have a trial. More likely a plea deal. Since he already admitted everything to the police. I'm not a detective or anything, but a full confession should be pretty compelling evidence in said trial, no?
Jauronimo Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 The grown man who doled out corporal punishment to me is still my role model. Classic case of battered son syndrome. I have some pamphlets you should read.
Dorkington Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Yup, plea deal with a high priced lawyer on your side, means no jail time. Likely go through counseling and community service. NFL should suspend him for 6 games (equal to that of the new agreement on domestic violence). All pretty straight forward, imo.
aristocrat Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Yes he is innocent until proven guilty. The Vikings can cut anyone they like or suspend for conduct detrimental to the team.
26CornerBlitz Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Adrian Peterson: 'I am, without a doubt, not a child abuser': http://www.cbssports...-a-child-abuser "I have to live with the fact that when I disciplined my son the way I was disciplined as a child, I caused an injury that I never intended or thought would happen," Peterson said. "I know that many people disagree with the way I disciplined my child. I also understand after meeting with a psychologist that there are other alternative ways of disciplining a child that may be more appropriate. "I have learned a lot and have had to re-evaluate how I discipline my son going forward. But deep in my heart I have always believed I could have been one of those kids that was lost in the streets without the discipline instilled in me by my parents and other relatives.

Adrian Peterson: 'I am, without a doubt, not a child abuser': http://www.cbssports...-a-child-abuser This is exactly what I said, and, in my opinion, mitigates his "crime."
Jauronimo Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Adrian Peterson: 'I am, without a doubt, not a child abuser': http://www.cbssports...-a-child-abuser NFL players need to learn that WASPy, New England values are the only ones that count. You discipline your children with emotional aloofness and back handed compliments, not the switch. And dog fighting is unconscionable (although killing for other sport or killing nuisance animals is time honored). Dogs sleep in the same bed with you. You kiss your dog on the mouth and your wife on cheek.
Mango Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 They should have never deactivated him. This country was founded on due process and innocent until proven guilty. Absolutely ridiculous. 1. Pictures 2. The NFL is not a court it is an employer.
Thunderstealer Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Who is going to trade anything for a distraction and a PR nightmare? If being a great RB were enough to counter these things they wouldn't consider trading him. Only team I could see him really putting over the top is Indy. Maybe Dallas.

FireChan Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 (edited) 1. Pictures 2. The NFL is not a court it is an employer. Due process is not based on evidence.

TheMadCap Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 (edited) This move by the Vikings to activate AP this week essentially forces the NFL to act. Expect a 6 game suspension sometime this week following the new domestic violence policy. Seems like a slam dunk to me... Edited September 15, 2014 by TheMadCap

Expect a 6 game suspension sometime this week following the new domestic violence policy. Seems like a slam dunk to me... I'd like to know how that will happen when he's not charged with DV and even if he was the matter hasn't been adjudicated in a court of law.
FireChan Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 I'd like to know how that will happen when he's not charged with DV and even if he was the matter hasn't been adjudicated in a court of law. It won't. Part of me wants the NFL to act prior to the legal procedure and get taken to the woodshed in court.
DC Greg Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Adrian Peterson: 'I am, without a doubt, not a child abuser': http://www.cbssports...-a-child-abuser Not buying it. Beat the kid with a stick and you didn't know that injuries could occur? Just trying to save his image. Have you read the texts he send his baby mama after this happened? http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/football/adrian-peterson-faces-years-prison-found-guilty-child-abuse-article-1.1938829 Peterson also allegedly said via text message to the child’s mother that he “felt bad after the fact when I notice the switch was wrapping around hitting I (sic) thigh” and also acknowledged the injury to the child’s scrotum in a text message, saying, “Got him in nuts once I noticed. But I felt so bad, n I’m all tearing that butt up when needed! I start putting them in timeout. N save the whooping for needed memories!” "Got him in the nuts once I noticed. I'm all tearing that butt up when needed" Casual, AP.
26CornerBlitz Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 It won't. Part of me wants the NFL to act prior to the legal procedure and get taken to the woodshed in court. They won't act unless Peterson's found guilty. Due Process.

You kiss your dog on the mouth and your wife on cheek. You've got a point there. I was never disciplined physically by my parents but you would not believe how vicious their use of sarcasm was. I remember pleading with them to hit me instead. Of course had they tried that I would have just chased them with a kitchen knife or at least have gone mano a mano. Probably why they preferred sarcasm, hyperbole, litotes and other cruel figures of speech - that and they were both teachers.
FireChan Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 They won't act unless Peterson's found guilty. Due Process. I'm shocked Bills fans didn't want Bradham suspended last year after he was breaking the law. Why didn't anyone raise questions about the NFL waiting to act? They won't act unless Peterson's found guilty. Due Process. I know. I've been agreeing with you all topic. Are you gonna make me bring up Johnny Football?
Captain Caveman Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 They won't act unless Peterson's found guilty. Due Process. Ray Rice wasn't found guilty, it was the video that did him in. In the end, the decision that is made by the NFL will be a PR / Marketing decision. The one thing that is different about this case is that there is a sizable percentage of people in this country that think AP was doing the right thing. It will be very interesting to see how this plays out.
birdog1960 Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Your inability to determine between sarcasm and serious posts is truly remarkable. Shouldn't you be chatting with Crayonz about commies right now? why? i think the acts are analogous.
