I'd hope the league and/or Patriots just say "gently caress it" and suspend/dump/whatever AB.

Elephanthead posted:So what team does AB really want to play for? Is he just going to burn them all for massive signing bonuses and never have to actually play again? Huh? Either this gets ignored  and he just plays for the Pats, or he gets suspended/commissioner's magic list-ed and his career is (at least temporarily) hosed.e: Compare the guaranteed money he got to what "not publicly known as a child abuser fuckbag" Julio Jones got. As much as Hill got off light he still lost a lot of money because of his poo poo. sean10mm fucked around with this message at 14:27 on Sep 11, 2019 |

It wouldn't surprise me if AB get punished more than Hill because he's been a huge pain in the rear end to uptight white guys running two (or three, depending how surprised & pissed Belichick actually is about the news) teams. His punishment is going to be the result of a combination of craven self interest and personal vindictiveness by the team and the league, with no connection to the seriousness of AB's alleged actions (which are loving terrible.)

ketchup vs catsup posted:That means cutting him is zero cost. Please cut him, Patriots. All poo poo talking and stuff aside, not only do I want AB to gently caress off, but this feels like the perfect guy to  if you're an insincere dickhead who wants an easy PR win like Goodell (or Kraft!)3 teams hate the guy, you don't really need him anyway, the money cost is somewhere between a big "so what" (if you have to pay his guaranteed money only spread out over 2 years) and literally zero (if you invoke the giant "everything is void if you make us look bad" clause), and he hasn't even played a snap yet. Just burn the prick.

MY NIGGA D-LINK posted:Then why are you saying poo poo about vengeance reprisals against him? You're not even the 3rd team and fanbase he's embarrassed since last Dec I don't trust the league's disciplinary system for anybody, on any team, for any offense. It just seems to be an arbitrary process run by morons. That has nothing to do with the fact that this one guy looks like a huge POS with the rape allegations. If he gets whacked by the league I won't feel bad about it at all, but it won't be because the process is good.

It's going to turn into a big pile of mush and there will be an out of court settlement and everyone will just forget it. I mean this morning GMF was singing the praises of noted domestic abuser (including pouring bleach on a little kid!) fuckface Suggs before going into Very Serious mode about AB. It's all bullshit.

Most seasons the AFCE is  , not terrible on a Brownsian scale. There are a shitload of 7-9 to 9-7 seasons in there for the Bills, Jets and Dolphins, with the odd 10-6 or 11-5 to give everybody a nice shock.2019 is shaping up to be incredibad though.

PupsOfWar posted:man the steelers gotta be better at keeping things under wraps than any political cleanup crew ive ever heard of It unironically makes me think Mike Tomlin is an underrated coach now. They were just able to push through Big Ben being a rapist that every single teammate also personally hates, and also somehow kept AB's combination of sex criming, narcissism and hating his quarterback tamped down for years before it inevitably melted down. His biggest crime is not hiring a DC who can decode the Patriots offense, which basically means maybe Wade Phillips or anyway.Shimrra Jamaane posted:I’d still give it better than 50/50 odds that after this week when the NFL interviews all the parties involved that AB is put on the exempt list. I feel like the Patriots are going to do a total responsibility dodge and just go along with what the league does (or doesn't) do. If AB gets nuked they aren't going to go out on a limb for him, but if they let him off the hook the Pats will just go "Whelp, league says it's fine so he's playing, everyone can eat a buffet of dicks." The league has gone soft on so much appalling poo poo (Hill says hi) that I have no idea where this goes. My prefernce is that AB just fucks off already.
