Surely you jest. Of course it is the NFL's and the owner's business. Peterson is an employee whose conduct reflects poorly on the enterprise. No doubt his contract has a moral's clause. When you violate the conditions of employment, the employer has the right to discipline or fire you.
Where did this idea come from that it is in any way good to stop a domestic abuser from having a job?
Peterson can apply for any job he wants. His present employer can deem him a liability and fire him. Why should the employer tolerate someone who tarnishes their product?
When Anheuser-Busch talks, the NFL listens.
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.
