Dogg, sorry the W’s didn’t get one of the top picks…poor Blake having to play for the Clippers! Now the Clipps are going to have to trade Elton Brand to make room for Blake Griffin, lol. The water treading continues for LA’s other team.

^^^^^
W’s could have used Griffin…poor Griff going to perennial top 3 in the draft the Clippers. Sad…

W’s should look to pick……

Tyreke Evans- big guard (he can play point) play defense and is a good slasher.

Earl Clark

Brandon Jennings

Demar DeRozen

Or Trade Down.

The W’s need to go after FA PG Andre Miller!

Just to keep the Vick crime in perspective, my son (15 at the time) was hit in the face with a crow bar by a gang member who snuck up behind him. EMS had to stop and do CPR on the way to the hospital. After a stay in crash,stiches, a bunch of MRI’s and a stay in the hospital. He went back to school. And what about the The kid that hit him? He got PROBATION (a couple of months) and a fine. He was back in school in my son’s math class the next semester. If Vick can help the Raiders then let him play. If not let him go about his way and have a wonderful career in construction. Either way just another overblown ESPN story.

You are comparing what a child did to Michael Vick, an adult who was involved in organized criminal activities and then tried to cover it up. The Feds nailed him with RICO (although he entered guilty please to other charges as part of the deal).

Obviously the pain and suffering your child went through was awful, but the fact remains that juvenile offenders get a break and adults don’t. Vick should have gotten the time he did, and children should get a second chance.

Federal crime or not, most domestic abuse issues do not rise to the level of a felony. Every employer should wait until a judge/jury decides the merit of a case, and if a felony conviction results then proceed accordingly.

For example, Barrett Robbins’ felonious behavior (not his AWOL SB binge) should keep him out of the NFL as a player, coach, etc. for many years. Not that he is any shape to try again, but his crimes were felonies. Thus he has a long time to wait and a lot to prove to get back in the NFL. Same should be true for any felon.

Raider O you might be right.

However we are talking about punishment Goodell can hand out. Of course FED laws are what they are, not at all the point Goodell can suspend or ban Larry Johnson right now if he felt compelled, seems as if he doesn’t care.

I think what Oak is saying that Vick had a fed conviction for Gambeling and dog fighting, compared to domestic violence which is not a fed crime.

MR,
I dont think OakGlenn is advocating hitting women he owns a cat for gawd sakes!

Maybe he has ADD, smokes too much dope, or just cant read. Im at a loss for words.

Oak?

If a player receives a felnoy conviction for the assault, Goodell should react in kind.
