    And that's why so many are getting into dog fighting. Keep the punishment the way it is. This is a cruel sport that serves no purpose then to make money for those involved. Many of which are criminals anyway.

    You don't really seem to know the real information. He went to jail for trafficking not for fighting dogs. Trafficking is a FEDERAL offense and that is why he served more time than you think is fit.

    It's always about money, I know this, but none of this would have occured if not for the dogs. Right?

    No that's not true. I did not matter to the Feds what he was gambling on only that the bets we're done across state lines and they could prove it.

    Why should he deserve to be in the comfort of his own home?! I don't understand how these judges that cast these sentences can be so lax!!
    There would be a lot less crime in the world if punishments were actually punishments! What a jag!! understand judges cast sentences lax crime world punishments punishments jag Let this be his "in home prison!"

    Heres hopeing some dumb GM goes out and signs him.He flops and gets cut.The GM gets fired.Then we can quit discussing this turd!Yes I know he has done his time.That does not mean he should be rewarded with another job in the NFL.His life can go on without being in the public eye.

    Why shouldn't he be allowed to play in the NFL? It's what his occupation was before going to jail. He wasn't doing anything illegal to make a living?

    there are other players that were basicly told to leave the NFL without commiting a crime in the NFL!yes sitting there lyeing right to the comissioners face about his his involvement in this mess will not play well when he ask for reinstatement.Remeber he also tested positive right before he went to jail.where you may live that may be legal.Here it is ILLEGAL and the NFL realley frowns on it as well.The NFL has banned other players.Goodall may just say he can join the list.Let us also remeber he is on parole his PO does not have to let him leave state.The NFL does not have to employ him.It is not a right of his.

    Who are the players that were told to leave the NFL without commiting a crime?

    He can lie all he wants before, why wouldn't he? He paid his time now.

    What did he test positive for?

    If it was illegal for testing positive for whatever he tested positive for why wasn't he convicted for that?

    When your job takes you out of state, there are very few that will not allow it.

    True

    Plenty of parolees have found out that they lose rights after committing crimes!If his parole agent does not feel comfterable with him leaveing sate he will make him stay!He tested positive for pot!While awaiting trial!Just because they didn't charge him with it does not mean the NFL won't use it against him!Tell Goodall that his sitting in front of him of him saying he had nothing to do with the dogfighting at his house was alright!I am sure he will not say it is his right.He has not finished his time yet either.He is still under state supervision!Just not in a prison!I will look up some players later!I ahve said in my earlier post that I hope he plays again and flops!just so we can quit hearing of this turd!Canada has already said he will not be let in the country!The one thing also is that the Falcons still own his rights and has said nobody contacted them about him.That crap about him being a reciever is just that!Until he shows that he can run a route(Sounds ez right but many collage players can't do it in the NFL),or catch a ball.Has his charges with the U.S. Department of labor been cleared up yet?There are so many hoops he is going to have to jump through!Then if a dumb GM signs him his job is on the line then and there!How many are going to take that chance?If Pac Man...

    Have my doubts but I am going to end this!To much of a public battle and it is not good for either one of us!One way or another I love watching the NFL.

    He shouldn't be allowed to play because he was BANNED by the NFL so that the Falcons wouldn't have to add his salary into their cap when they dumped him.
    If someone can be BANNED and then return with no consequence then what is the point?
  • beagamer nltsierra May 06, 2009 22:35:48

    The point is that he messed up and once he has been rehabilitated it's up to the commissioner, the same one that banned him to let him play again.
  • nltsierra beagamer May 06, 2009 22:39:40
    nltsierra
    So Banned means nothing? even though he was to be banned for life?

    You can prove for a fact that he is rehabilitated? You know him personally? and can vouch for his character? How do you know that this isn't just a smoke screen so that he can play again, since you agree it's all about the money. Why wouldn't he lie, cheat, steal, gamble, just like he has done in the past so that he can make his precious money back?

    He probably has and will continue to lie and do other things, but he is a football player by profession and you or I cannot take that away from him. If he worked at MCdonalds, would you think that it's ok for him to go back to work there?

    You can What if your ass off and I don't really care.
    My point is that he was BANNED! So he should not be able to go back to a profession that he was BANNED from
    What about the word BANNED do you not understand?

    You didn't answer any of my other questions either
  • beagamer nltsierra May 07, 2009 20:42:02

    I'm not sure what you've been told or read but he was never banned. He was suspended, would you like for me to tell you what that word means?
  • nltsierra beagamer May 07, 2009 21:14:52

    No... he was Banned so that the Falcons did not have to add his salary into their salary cap.

    Maybe you should try reading, then you wouldn't sound like the ignoramus you are coming across as.

    You can't just change the facts so that you get the answer you want.
