He can slide the amount up or down as he sees fit. June 29, 2018 press release from the NFL (I just read the entire conduct code and prior to this there was no baseline at all) “Effective immediately, violations of the Personal Conduct Policy regarding assault, battery, domestic violence or sexual assault that involve physical force will be subject to a suspension without pay of six games for a first offense." and then this about Kareem Hunt Hunt is being investigated for another incident that happened at a resort in June, so he may be facing two separate suspensions, which would likely span longer than the baseline six-game suspension for violation of the league's personal conduct policy. The 23-year-old running back was released by the Chiefs on Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I continue to not understand this line of reasoning. Are you in complete 100% control of everything that happens in your home, even when you're not there? Should you responsible and punished by your employer because of something your partner does? And as ridiculous as the NFL is sometimes, do you think that is an actual justification they would give for a suspension? I challenge anyone to come up with a similar precedent where an NFL player was suspended based on "something happening in their home." There is less evidence here that Hill did something than pretty much any other case of NFL discipline that I can think of - including Brady, where you had texts that looked pretty bad. I know it's popular to think of Goodell as an out-of-control lunatic, but he has his limits. Having said that, before today I was more agnostic on the facts and that was the hill I wanted to die on, that we just didn't know. Today changed that a little bit. The DA was trying to avoid specifics but admitted the child had been hurt. Obviously his office believes it was abuse/battery. It was probably Hill or Espinal. It's pretty easy to read between the lines that they aren't pressing charges because the child can't articulate what happened and Hill and Espinal aren't being forthcoming. It's a long shot but maybe it was even a third party. It seems to me more likely that Espinal is covering for Hill (to keep Hill from losing the big payday) than the other way around, but both are plausible (she's his pregnant fianceé after all). I'm glad the child is safe and I hope it wasn't as bad as some of this may all imply. I hope everyone gets the help they need. I hope Hill didn't do it and continues to play for the Chiefs without suspension, but if he did it I'll understand if there are consequences.

Do you think a 3 year old can tell them what happened? I do. The DA is an absolute TWIT for leaving this idea open without proof. Hill does not get a chance to defend himself in court. He is now labeled. If I am Hill I might sue him for his summation as a character assassination costing him millions in future contracts. . Maybe I the FANATIC should sue him for costing KC wins which could lead to some suicides or worse. He was negligent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree 100 percent with this and any debate over baseline penalties is almost thrown out the window because Goodell clearly does whatever he wants. The players tried to have Article 46 at least amended in the negotiations for the current CBA. But I read they caved to get their revenue share amount and not having to play an 18 game schedule.

I hope Hill didn't do it and continues to play for the Chiefs without suspension, but if he did it I'll understand if there are consequences. I think the one thing added here that is very relevant is that the DA said he strong believes a crime was committed. And there's only two possible suspects. So Goodell can say you were there or didn't cooperate or won't cooperate and act accordingly. Had the DA just simply said there will be no charges, answered a few questions and then walked away...Goodell would have been stonewalled with conventional logic. The players dug their own grave by signing a CBA that has Article 46 in it and a power hungry commissioner who seems to live by no rules. He has however made decisions and lost in the courts so his power is not completely unchecked. But its pretty close. I'll say it again. Even if Tyreek gets suspended he should be thanking his lucky stars because this could have been far worse. All that said, who's gonna volunteer to get the DA Steve Howe drunk so that he spills what he thinks happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But from what I hear its likely. I propose they add a stipulation to the salary cap which exempts the QBs contract from it. Aside from that I don't care what they decide just don't miss games.

Responding in reverse order here but yes. A 3 year old can absolutely tell you what happened. "Daddy was really mad I ate his HoHos and gave me a whoopin with a stick while he was smokin that stuff with the funny smell"... Question is did the 3 year old even have to talk? Steve Howe isn't dumb. He was clearly stonewalled by the rules as much as anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamixoye 604 Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 You guys, I've met some VERY inarticulate / reserved 3 year olds. And if the kid has been abused / neglected, the chances that he falls into that category are higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
