I agree with everything you said. I just want people to realize there's a difference between human and animal crime. If what I've heard is accurate he needs to be banned, not suspended, from the NFL. He also needs to do time in jail.

Speaking of criminal....I filled in for a guy in softball last night. I was on second and my buddy got a hit so I rounded third and I had to make a decision right then because I knew the ball would beat me. I'm 41 but I still have intense competitive juices in me. I play to win! Well, just as I thought the ball beat me into home. This was a matter of how bad I wanted to put a run on the board - I wanted it bad LOL!! So I lowered my shoulder and crucified the catcher. The ball didn't come out of his glove - the glove came off his hand and one of his shoes came off. He was laying there for several minutes and I stayed with him. I apologized - I didn't want to hurt him - I wanted to score. He ended up leaving the game and I felt so GUILTY! I still wonder if I did the right thing. Its bar league softball so its a competitive game but I felt so bad that I hurt him. The only thing that I think I know is that if I had played catcher and the circumstances were similar I believe someone would have done the same to me.....I don't know - I still feel bad
