    He's not being kicked out of the league. It's a two week suspension. It's a fair punishment, given the fact that he basically took a shit on his boss. As for the fag part, there are different rules for public figures and rightfully so.

    It's also funny because Johnson once said he hated Kansas City for being the republican capital of the world, or something like that. I would think that a liberal would be more sensitive about using gay slurs in front of the entire world.

    Not saying he wouldn't reinstate him. He wouldn't just lose just 8 freaking games, which is all Little got.

    Vick got a season and 3 games. Donte's suspension is indefinite, at least an entire season, perhaps more. Same with Buress. Not sure if either actually gets signed again given their age.

    Hard to kick out a guy like Pacman when the legal system didn't even convict him of anything. They ended up suspending him for a multitude of incidents that accumulated without any convictions.

    You don't need to be convicted to be suspended or kicked out of the NFL. He was in violation of team and league conduct policies on multiple occassions.

    You don't know that>>

    Stallworth has an indefinite suspension, for a similar circumstance. Definately worse than 8 games. Its a reasonable conclusion.

    >>You don't need to be convicted to be suspended or kicked out of the NFL. He was in violation of team and league conduct policies on multiple occassions.

    And after multiple incidents, he was suspended. And although he's free to sign, he's out of the league because he fucked up again in Dallas. Not sure why you are bitching.

    I'd be bitching if I had to live in Charlotte.

    i thought he was getting rung up more for his insubordinate statements about the coach than anything.

    Stallworth is getting a longer suspension because of what a joke Florida law is and what a slap on the wrist he got. Goodell didn't have a choice.

    Pac Man is out of the league because he can't cover me. If he could play, someone would sign him....probably Philly.

    I'm not bitching, I'm stating facts about players Goodell has dealt with. What I can't figure out is why you are following me around the thread when I wasn't even talking to you to begin with.

    I would be too. That's why I don't live there. It's a horrible city run by morons.
