soco Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 Just wanted to see what you all thought of Goodell and his new rules ? is he wrong for sitting Tank, Packman and C Henry and then letting Vick skate by and give Vick a chance but not the others who were accused of less crimes ? is it fair?

tonyr0802 Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 Just wanted to see what you all thought of Goodell and his new rules ? is he wrong for sitting Tank, Packman and C Henry and then letting Vick skate by and give Vick a chance but not the others who were accused of less crimes ? is it fair? I think he's good for the NFL, we need someone to step up and stop these idiots from behaving the way they do. I see you point with Vick, and in no way am I defending him, but the only difference I can see between him and the other players you mentioned is that they had multiple offenses. Unless I'm forgetting about something else with Vick, this is the only line of defense I see Goodell having as to why they've not acted against Vick yet. IMO he should be suspended by now. Read today that he may be asked to take a year's leave of absence and miss the 07 season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soco Posted July 21, 2007 Author Share Posted July 21, 2007 (edited) I see your point .But its says no tolerance rule .it seems to me that it means one chance ... right? if that rule applies to one than it applies to all no matter what the the crime was...

That rule was about repeat offenders. He hasn't let Vick skate. They are reviewing their options(along with the Players ass. and the Falcons) and we may hear something next week. Give it a little time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soco Posted July 22, 2007 Author Share Posted July 22, 2007 this is not a good thing . anyway I hope it all comes out in the wash and it ends soon and they make the right calls... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 this is not a good thing . anyway I hope it all comes out in the wash and it ends soon and they make the right calls... Emmitt Smith thinks they are pressuring Vick to turn on his co-conspirators. He thinks he was there and bet on some fights but wasn't the main man there. If you read the indictment it is disgusting what they did. It is going before a court that does cases very quickly so it should be over in a few months(barring appeals). . No way does he play in the NFL this year. How he goes out I believe is the only question(paid leave, suspendsion, gets cut, etc) Goodell is looking for the right way to do it .

Duchess Jack Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 I won't be upset about the league not doing anything about him before he is found guilty of something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what I have been saying all along. Not on this board but to friends I have around here. IF it been anyone else he would have been suspended by now. If it was anyone else we would be talking about a leave of absences. Less lone a paid leave of absence. It sickens me that you do the other players that way with a iron fist. Then play pickmy. Do it across the board. Policy is policy at this point. And those had previous run in BEFORE. The rule was even set in place. They got accused anamd may even get off and they are suspended. That is why I think it is wrong. If Pacman gets off on all his chargers I will be mad and if Vick gets guilty in any of it and he waits the year day or whatever. And if guilty I say Goodell is in the wrong and every will need to challenge that policy if they are accused sent he want to suspend people before the courts but then be picky which players he does it too.. Franchise QB or not.. If you want to lay the hammer, lay it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
