    I love that you have created misery in your sports teams to spite your family. Clemson seemed to work for you though, so you do have that.

    I don't follow the NFL much, I will be honest. Who is this player in question? People can definitely change and I don't know all the details so I will refrain from saying anything else til I know more.

    I don't even know what he did, and I sure didn't learn anything from that, I just don't understand why ESPN even acknowledged it.

    Best case: dude lives a LeBron life. No one remembers your 5 minutes speech about that stupidity.
    Worst case: literally everything else & you should never show your face again b/c you just spent 5 minutes talking around a garbage situation to make it sound like the NFL gives a hoot.

    Just like.. WHY? Who tf for any paycheck is volunteering to go to bat for this dude like that long winded airbag just did?

    "This guy got drafted, we're on to pick #17" lol

    Jeffery Simmons. He assaulted a woman, on video. Got some citations and basically a slap on the wrist. But it is totally cool cause he can sorta play football but with a busted knee that is gonna cause problems.

    meanwhile, in the nhl:

    Slava Voynov has not played in an NHL game since October 2014 and he won't play in another one until at least October 2020.

    The league announced in a statement Tuesday that the former Los Angeles Kings defenseman has been suspended for the entire 2019-20 season, including the Stanley Cup Playoffs, for "unacceptable off-ice conduct" stemming from a previous domestic abuse case.


    hockey is the best the end

    "
    On July 2, a Los Angeles Superior Court granted Voynov a dismissal of his misdemeanor conviction. In 2015, he pleaded no contest to corporal injury to a spouse. The Los Angeles Times obtained a copy of the original police report, and reported that Voynov choked his spouse, pushed her to the ground, kicked her and shoved her into the corner of a flat-screen TV.

    ADVERTISEMENT
    Voynov received a 90-day jail sentence, plus three years probation, but served less than two months before self-deporting to his native Russia. The Los Angeles Kings voided his five-year contract worth $25 million."

    orrrr he could be booted completely for being a shitty trash person.


    The video is still floating around out there. There was nothing simple about that assault. Or any assault, actually. Don't fuggin hit people, damn it. Man, woman, child, even RA. Just stop hitting people and stop letting people get away with doing it.

    I mean hockey is the best but Voynov is an extreme case and he shouldn't be playing.
    Voynov, who has pleaded not guilty to a felony count of corporal injury to a spouse with great bodily injury

    UHHHH. Yeah I mean I'll admit I don't follow the NHL so this could be inaccurate, but that's a bad look right there.

    Additionally, at the end of the survey you will be given the option of providing two character references. If one or both of your references provided at the end of the survey respond to a brief follow-up (~3 minutes), you (and your participating reference) may elect to enter a chance to win a $100 Amazon gift card.

    Am I interviewing for a job or taking a survey

    The truth is that the NFL cares more about substance problems like weed than abuse. Two player that had their careers basically trashed by it are Ricky Williams and Josh Gordon.
