jerryskids 5,169 Posted September 17, 2014 More women are beaten by their significant other on Sundays during the football season when their team loses or they lose bets on games than any other day of the year. There are more fans than players so it makes perfect sense. The number of fans vs players is irrelevant to the RATE of abuse. I find it hard to believe that the rate is higher for the general population. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When an NFL player gets arrested for anything it's all over the news. You ever watch COPS? You see the kind of people who get arrested for DV? The majority of players in the NFL have a high school diploma and somewhat of an higher education. It's not hard to believe to me. I live in the south. We all beat our wives and shoot or dogs after a loss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
penultimatestraw 473 Posted September 17, 2014 The number of fans vs players is irrelevant to the RATE of abuse. I find it hard to believe that the rate is higher for the general population. If NFL losses are fueling domestic violence, one must also consider what % of the population are NFL fans…but those stats do nothing to ease the pain of women in Oakland, Cleveland and Detroit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peenie 1,690 Posted September 18, 2014 http://i.imgur.com/qizvK5Z.jpg I think this sums up the NFL right now. hide your bounty? Saints players allegedly earned bonuses for inflicting injuries on opposing players that forced them to leave games; however, none of the hits in question were ever penalized or deemed illegal by in-game officials. oohhhhh....

TD Ryan2 314 Posted September 18, 2014 hide your bounty? peenie - they never talked about Bounty-Gate on The View or Lifetime? Welcome to ENN EFF ELL fandom, you got's some catchin' up to do.

BunnysBastatrds 1,910 Posted September 18, 2014 hide your bounty? oohhhhh.... Millionare football players putting twenty dollars in a jar to win the bounty if they get a big hit is what the accusation was . If you believe that, than you don't know the game of football. The whole bounty gate scandal was complete BS. Goodell didn't like Paytons arrogance after the Super Bowl, and the looming concussion scandal and lawsuits being filled by former players. Payton was nothing more than a scapegoat for Goodell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TD Ryan2 314 Posted September 18, 2014 Million dollar football scouting operations putting cameras outside the designated "you can put cameras here" spots is what the accusation was. If you believe that the whole league didn't do it, than (sic) you don't know the game of football. The whole spy gate scandal was complete BS. Goodell didn't like Belichicks arrogance after the MULTIPLE Super Bowls, and the looming "Patriots hit too hard and hurt our WRs" scandals, rules changes, and crying by Bill Polian, Peyton Manning and Marshall Faulk. Belichick was nothing more than a example for Goodell to stop typical defensive practices in the NFL and allow video-game offenses to rule. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jerryskids 5,169 Posted September 19, 2014 I disagree. When the Ray Rice video came out and questions arose about the NFL possibly burying evidence, I thought of Spygate. They destroyed those tapes. Really? Why would you do that if there weren't something incredibly damning in them? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BunnysBastatrds 1,910 Posted September 19, 2014 Belichick got a two game suspension, a hefty fine, and Goodell destroyed the evidence. Payton was fined 7 million dollars, lost a first round draft pick (the Saints didn't have 2nd rounder that year due to a trade the previous year), ordered to not contact anyone associated with the NFL (couldn't even call Brees and congratulate him when his son was born) and told Payton never talk or mention it to the press ever. Goodell didn't just fawk Payton over. He fawked the entire organization and more importantly, the fans. Did you notice that none of the players who were accused of hurting other players were never flagged on the field or fined off the field? And all players accused after the facts were presented had their bullsh!t suspensions voided? Or of the forty thousand supposed pages of evidence Goodell had on the case, only a few pages were ever presented to the public? You think Goodell would have fined Jerry Jones 7 million dollars and told him to stay away from the NFL for an entire year? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BunnysBastatrds 1,910 Posted September 19, 2014 So why did Goodell do it? Payton fock his wife or something? Needed a scape goat for the concussion issues at the time. Used Payton as an example that he was being proactive and also used the sports media as a tool to take the spotlight off of him. Do you think he would have suspended Jerry Jones like hid Payton?

You must have played in the pink Possay league. Before the Bounty Gate scandal, ESPN did a jacked up segment which showed the best hits of the week.
