WJMorris3 Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Much too lenient. To be honest, he should have been banned for life when his first police problems hit, while he was at West Virginia.Just to be fair, Ben Roethlisberger would have been banned as well before this year, as would Ray Lewis in 2000.Just of our curiosity, what exactly is the threshold for banishment under your standards?Very simple. One strike, you're out -- any police action against you (an arrest, a conviction), would cause your banishment. Note, I'm not saying you need to be an NFL player to be banned by the NFL -- if you commit the crime while in college or high school, then you should be banned just the same.

leopard88 Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Very simple. One strike, you're out -- any police action against you (an arrest, a conviction), would cause your banishment. You do realize that people are occasionally arrested when they are not, in fact, guilty of any crime, right? Should a player in that situation really be banned for life, because that is what you are saying?

We'd have the Nashville police arrest Peyton Manning the day he came into town for loitering in the lobby of the team hotel. 45 minutes later, they could just say "my bad!" and let him go.

If a fan has a criminal record, he/she can forget about attending the games. In fact, lets interrupt the cable feed to their home so they can't even watch on TV. Based on evaluations from their NFL assigned parole officer, good behavior will be rewarded with the ability to listen to the games broadcast on the radio.

Now apparently, in this bible thing people keep telling me I need to read to find Jebus (I guess he's like Waldo), there's a passage about "he who is without sin casting the first stone."In other words, until you've lived a life where you've turned in every wallet you've ever found without rifling through it for cash first, never lusted after a woman, never done anything wrong ever, shut the up you pompous windbag. Besides, if you really want to stop the potential of a pro athlete ever doing anything illegal, you'd abort them in the 2nd trimester, amiritefolks? Oh, I forgot, the holier-than-thous are pro-life.

Gothamite Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Just as a follow-up, I heard Peter King on ESPN radio say that the Pacman suspension had nothing to do with the pending investigation of the Vegas incident. They were already investigating him and considering potential punishments.Since the Vegas incident is still being investigated, the NFL left it out of their deliberations.What this potentially means is very interesting to me - Since that shooting is considered a separate incident, if Pacman is charged in Vegas, he might be suspended for all or part of 2008 as well.

Hauglid13 Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Yeah, on ESPN they said he had about 16+ things on record, and thats kind of ridiculous in my eyes to let someone still play in the nfl with that kind of record.
