I sincerely hope the NFL begins punishing players guilty of violent crimes and sexual misconduct more harshly than players who use casual drugs or make a bet on FanDuel.

I am skeptical though.

Unfortunately, I think you're probably right.

Basically that he entered a massage appointment with the idea of coercing them to have sex with him.

Yeah both teams picked awful names.

But speaking of names. I'd like the league to step in and give the Jazz back to New Orleans where it belongs.

At least Guardians is similar enough that I can remember they're the Indians I guess.

Is there a state less "Jazz" than Utah, lol? Then again, not a lot of lakes or clipper ships in LA either...

Terrible.

Again though…

It is the decisions makers that ordered to cops to do what they did who are to blame.

Not the individual cops as you claim.
If you follow orders that put children in this kind of danger, you still deserve the criticism IMO.

Haven't heard a lot, but the little I have heard, would be difficult to talk about on radio and not end up with an FCC violation of some sort. The one I heard about...he became erect, then started masturbating in front of her and when he finished, he got some on her.

I guess the obvious question is, why was she still in the room?

In the end he is accused of openly looking to pay for sex, apparently all the time. Just comes down to how bad of a look the NFL thinks that is.

He probably got it offered once or twice and was delusional enough because of status that he felt it a legitimate option. Shopping on Instagram is almost like stooping to Craigslist....

For the life of me I don't understand his logic there.

If I'm the backup QB, I take the 3 rings. Any other position...I take the HoF career.

HOF careers are great, as long as your quality of life is intact, post-career. Backup QB is a nice spot to be, and often leads to coordinator and coaching jobs.

I've always said...if you can't be a great player...backup QB in the NFL is the best gig in sports.
