I see a few conflicts with this. Aside from showing how slow the court systems are nowadays depending on the case, how is it that other players found of more sadistic crimes back on the field and in shorter time? I know that the Williams brothers have not been suspended yet, but it seemed that other cases were resolved without restraint. A good example would be the whole Donte’ Stallworth episode, which was resolved in a much more timely fashion. Not to go too in depth, but he struck and killed a pedestrian while driving under the influence back in March of 2009. A mere year ago, the man killed another person. I repeat, KILLED a man, reached a settlement, did 30 days in jail, and is now back on an NFL roster within a year.
In all reality, they took a pill that did not list all its ingredients. It is open and shut. Had Bumetanide been on the label, then yes, those boys are guilty as charged. It was not though, so let’s stop wasting time and money, and let them get back to work without all of the distractions. These boys work their backsides off to be as dominating as they are. They took a diet pill, yes a diet pill, something that has become the most common form of weight loss strategy nowadays, to cut weight, and be more competitive without breaking the NFL list of rules.
Forgetting for a moment that idea of the punishment fitting the crime, these boys should not be punished. They did not break the law, they will not be facing any jail time, and the NFL in all its wisdom has not admitted that this “offense” is a no case. Nobody is going to win, so drop the case, and worry about more important issues, such as finding out what ever happened to Ocho Cinco’s gold fronts.
