I would agree the NFL can fire people for bringing disrepute on the game.

But if they care about the child or wife, they would attempt other solutions first. Both AP and RR could have been given the choice to turn their salary for the year into a trust for their victim, and IF they get help and behave properly they will be considered for reinstatement next year.

This is a liberal feeding frenzy and please, giving Biden’s aide a job as a “domestic abuse adviser” is nothing more than a political payoff. This is being used by the politicians to tap further into the NFL’s billions.

They just want protection money, and liberal orthodoxy, and they will destroy football.

AP is suspended with salary. RR will keep his $25 million salary. These are multi-millionaires, not some guy who lost his job at McDonalds.

The NFL has protecting these thugs who more often than not escape the punishment that you or I would receive if we did the same thing.

There is no doubt the liberals want to destroy football, which they are doing bit by bit. Many of the owners are Dems who provide money to the DNC. Rooney is one of the prime examples as is the so-called Rooney Rule.

I predict that the NFL will decline in popularity as the demography of this country changes. We have 45 million foreign born in this country compared to 9.7 million in 1970. In a decade there will be 60 million. Soccer will eventually replace football. As Obama said, if he had a son, he wouldn't allow him to play football.
