Oh my god he literally barely did anything. You guys need to chill tf out. I’m with @Deebo813 here. Frankly I wouldn’t even care if he’s not suspended at all. He didn’t knock her out, he didn’t hit her, he didn’t smack her.

The sooner people realize the league doesn't care, the better off they'll be. These guys aren't role models. And why the hell do we expect more from athletes than people in office?

They may not be, but children look up to them like role models. They also are in the public eye.

I hope they don’t suspend him now. I just don’t like the hypocrisy of it. I’d put this between Rice (extreme) and Elliott (lower). I feel like it’s ridiculous the NFL enforces this stuff and find how they enforce it wildly inconsistent

It all goes back to Mr, Inconsistency (Godell)

Then blame the lazy parents for not raising their children with sense.

Cant blame parents neither. Gotta blame the individual

You can’t watch that damn video and think its THAT bad. The worst part was when he was in a scuffle with another guy and they pushed the other dude into the girl. The girl was fine, didn’t press charges or anything. This is honestly a non story if you ask me.

Lol, this is partially true, but sometimes the person has to take their own responsibility

It’s no wonder officials can’t call penalties right. Goodell isn’t consistent in his punishments. If anyone thinks I’m upset because of Hunt and what happened in the video I’m not. I’m pissed because of how these punishments are enforced and who is chosen to be punished.

It’s on the individual in the end because sometimes even good parenting doesn’t work, but many times parents do deserve blame.

its probably impossible to stay consistent in a business like this.. its like trying to get the justice system to be consistent..

As I said, it’s not the video that’s a problem it’s how the NFL enforces this personal conduct policy. They need to just get their hands out of all these rules and enforcement on players. Let the legal system handle this stuff.

Unless they thought he didn’t deserve to be punished? I don’t really see a problem here

I don't know how Godell and the suspension committee are still employed. Smh

Even worse are how blind the owners are and allow him to continue his job.

I wouldn’t have a problem with that if they did the same to Elliott. That’s really why I’m a bit pissed on it. For me it’s more Elliott than Rice because there was way less there than here yet they suspended him.

One thing I’ll admit I didn’t consider until now is maybe they have changed their ways. I’d thats the case then I take back what I said.

Not hard to improve the system, considering they are so bad at it. Atleast make a real attempt at it, not fake one.

I mean for a young child. The parent shouldn't raise a child to look up to an athlete. I don't care about your completion %, or if you are the best 3 point shooter ever. That's on the parent to let their child know who should be looked up to in certain aspects. Just respect actors/athletes for their craft, not them as a person.
