If the NFL was serious about domestic violence then it would be policy that men who beat women don’t play or work for the NFL period.

Tell ya what. Go beat the shit out of your girlfriend or boyfriend and see if anyone from the NFL shows up with a $12 million check.
Who gives a shit that he missed 19 games? He should be missing them all and the NFL shouldn’t be enabling this r from franchises. Any claims to moral superiority from the NFL head offices…
I think “We have given Greg a second chance” admits that he did something wrong in the first place, and recognizing that he did something wrong but not punishing him or advocating any punishment undermines the notion that Jerry Jones and the Cowboys and The NFL take domestic violence seriously. They don't. Football…
“We do not condone domestic violence. We just enable it.”
Yeah think with both the NFL turning a blind eye for dollars, and fans turning a blind eye (or being outwardly vitriolic) for entertainment, there is no incentive for the system to change (at any level really).
Yeah but it’s more than just people at the top (the people making money) protecting them... it is the fans too: fans who refuse to believe that their precious, superstar ____ could ever do ____ (insert: rape a woman, beat a woman, steal, murder, etc.), and will stop at nothing to make the victim’s life hell until she…
This truly happened to me, and maybe I should have contacted the police about it but I didn’t. I try not to think about it.
I live alone.
When I was sixteen I would sneak out of the house at night get high and read a book (Such a rebel, I know). There was an empty forclosed home next door, and I would get inside via a basement window well and smoke in the basement’s bar area. One night it was raining pretty heavy, and I forgot to bring my lighter. I…
My junior year in college my roommate and I had a fascination with Ouija boards. We would pull it out for every little decision and for every one of life’s great mysteries (Will I get a good job? Will I get married? Where does the other sock go? Is the coke really pure?). Every once in awhile we would get a response…
My Grandma had always said there were ghosts living in their house but I always laughed and ignored it because I never really believed in them. The night before my Grandfather’s funeral, I woke up to the sound of someone in the next room opening and closing cabinet doors and moving things around like they were looking…
Yay - I love this thread! I know three true ghost stories; here’s one:
I am still not over “Look at Me”
And have you been to peoples houses where they had a huge cd display case and everything was categorized and all the cds were clean and put in cases and they’re all “don’t smudge it!! ?”I thought those people were aliens.
lol “I have a CD Walkman.”
Not curable. Period. And I never had any issue calling out anyone who injured a child or other vulnerable person. Not being cruel or putting suspicion in play, but fact based action.
I am not any kind of expert, but I would guess it’s just a variant or particular manifestation of narcissistic personality disorder.
One episode of that show had my favorite quote ever from a reality show. A homeowner who went back to her old house, which had been redecorated by someone who must have watched the Sopranos and thought, yes, Carmela has exquisite taste, if only she just went a little further with it. The poor woman looked around and…
