If the authorities do not press charges, should he be suspended? What if the investigation reveals that nothing happened? Does he get the games back that he lost?

I think you are speculating. Were you there? Did you see what happened? If not, your opinion is just an opinion based on one side of the story, and which side of the story has yet to result in any charges. Your rain analogy is not equivalent. If a woman runs up to you with bruises all over and says her husband…

The fact that he has not yet been charged means that it is all just speculation. He may be guilty. He may be innocent. It may have been mutual combat. The fact is that police in many states are compelled to make an arrest in a domestic violence situation. That fact alone should give all of us great pause in…

This is a pretty stupid analysis. The team is simply not willing to suspend a player when he hasn't even been charged. You also seem to be oblivious to the fact that dozens of McDonald's teammates were at the party and may very well have reported to the team that he did not commit any crime. Thus, it may be the…

If you have an employment contract (and McDonald has an employment contract, so he is not an "at-will" employee like most of us), and your boss turned out to be wrong (i.e. his wife lied), you may very well have a case for recovery of the rest of the compensation owed to you under the contract.

Has McDonald been charged? It seems to me that this much ado about nothing unless and until he is charged. If suspend or discipline players based on mere arrests, you would encourage fans or others with a motive or an ax to grind to make false police reports and/or incite players. For example, if my favorite team…

Who would have thought that men who practice organized violence for a living while doing any kind of testosterone-adding substance they can legally get away with would be inclined to violence against others?

This is the pet version of "more cushin' for the pushin'". Well played

I am in shape and have been for my entire life. I play sports, workout and watch what I eat to a reasonable degree. I have overweight friends. I found that each is different, but the way I approach it is if one of them ever brings up his or her own weight, I always just offer to help them. I have a friend is 300+…

I think we need a testicular cancer initiative (my suggested slogan, for which I even wrote a catchy tune, is "What about the nuts?") It really is underfunded.

I thought it was actual the new double dime package, but you're saying it was the 4 nickel one? Man that Chip Kelly has us all fooled.

You should run a "dumb restaurant employee stories" article every so often. I've got one that my boss told me that is pretty good:

Sometimes settlement is the best option simply to avoid the cost of defense, but if your mother feels she did nothing wrong, that is a hard pill to swallow. The longer your mom knew the deceased friend, the better. Most undue influence cases involve what I would call a usurper (i.e. a johnny come lately who shows…

If you cannot provide at least average service, do not be a waiter.

For all we know, the service could have been horrible. I generally tip in the 18-25% range, but I have tipped nothing before if the service warrants it. For example, I once went to a nice Italian restaurant to celebrate my buddy's return from service in Iraq and did not leave a tip because the waiter:

Not really. You can only be found to have unduly influenced a testator if your influence was so overbearing that your will/intent replaced the free will/intent of the testator. Merely helping someone procure a will is not undue influence, but can be evidence of undue influence. The factors vary by state, but they…

This a clear overreach. Every day in the this country, public officials (police men and women, judges, prosecutors, and politicians, among others) make decisions on both micro and macro levels that fail to protect the best interests of women and myriad other groups that are minorities or otherwise oppressed. Based…

The tape does make a difference IF he told the Ravens/NFL that he hit her in self-defense and described her as being the aggressor. The tape seems to show him initiating contact, her reacting by coming at him, and then him punching her and knocking her out cold. So the tape contradicts any excuse about him needing…

DCA is going to be the best approach for the vast majority of Americans for the simple fact that they do not have the lump sum to invest. I do a combination of both. My IRA is, of course, a DCA strategy. For my personal brokerage account , I invest lump sums anytime I can afford to do so,
