The League looks like a bunch of indecisive jackasses. I'm glad they benched him, but he never should have been reinstated in the first place. Morons.
They are a bunch of idiots. They aren't indecisive in the least bit, inconsistent (look at other players and legal issues), the decision. Is based on money.
When the player makes you money, great. Doesn't matter if they kill or beat someone. When the player is causing MAJOR sponsorship to threaten leaving, do what you can to make the sponsors happy.
I do not want this to be short lived. I hope the stance on the sponsors is to strongly suggest better guidelines in place to deal with a-holes.
I mean I'm glad they're not letting him play, I don't know what exempt list is, but they're not taking action bc they're good people concerned about children and not wanting to condone abusive behavior.
Exempt list means he can't even be at the team facilities.
As a Vikings fan, I was so disappointed by the owners' decision to reinstate him. I agree that the only reason they deactivated him again is because money talks, but regardless, I'm glad he won't be playing.
And now he still gets paid only he doesn't have to do anything. I think they should make him show up and hand out the Gatorade.
That is moronic. He should be on unpaid leave. He doesn't even understand that what he did was out of line. He still thinks it was normal discipline. Idiot. But I am glad he's not playing.
