NFL Perverts : Castrating the Problem For the Sake of Society

PrintUnfortunately, the NFL has a seamy side.
Several of the same men the league tries to push as their images and heroes are creeps who stalk and harass women to try to fill their perversions.
Many have crossed the line legally, yet they escape justice and imprisonment because they happen to play a child's game for money.
Here are some disgusting cretins currently donning NFL jerseys looking for your applause:
Yes "Favre Haters", the Hickocrite is back in the news.
Not for his poor play or the hopes of improvement with the addition of wide receiver Randy Moss alone.
You won't hear this story on ESPN, who worships the toilet Favre sits on.
In 2008, Favre exposed his saggy sac while stalking a sideline reporter who basically looks like his wife with silicone representing her breasts.
Of course no one investigated her claims years ago, because the Hickocrite was raking in too much cash by retiring, waffling, then un-retiring.
The old pervert can't get his media buddies to save him this time, because there are e-mails, voice messages, and pictures as damning proof.
Still, don't expect NFL commissioner Roger Goodell to do more than take a few pennies from Favre after reading a fake statement on how tough he is on crime.
The real money will be paid on the impending settlement to hush the victim.
Adam "Pac-Man" Jones
It is utterly amazing this creep is not in jail for paralyzing a man for life.
He did this by allegedly shooting the man in a club, something the club owner swears he did despite Jones' proclamations of innocence.
It shortly happened after he assaulted a woman.
A document showing he paid various people in the club $15,000 involved in the shooting has been theorized as a payoff for silence.
Shortly after this, he was heard talking on the phone to a recently arrested drug dealer, who was heard saying "We gotta slow down, man. We gotta get him focused on football, man."
The drug dealer also claimed Jones bet on college games to earn quick money.
"You know, I was talkin' to him (Jones) the other day about smokin', and he was like 'man, if I didn't smoke (drugs) I couldn't take all the stress that I'm dealing with right now,'" the drug dealer said in a phone call listened in on by law enforcement authorities.
Jones has also been arrested, charged or convicted of marijuana possession
Yet Goodell, who pretends to take a hard line on crime, let Jones back into the league to earn a paycheck after a year suspension.
Yet another example how Goodell is Badashell for the NFL.
Ben Roethlisberger
It took Goodell two incidents by Roethlisberger to step in.
Seems "Big Ben" couldn't stop inserting "Little Ben" into women against their will.
Goodell took such a hard line against the star quarterback that he threatened to suspend Roethlisberger a whole six games, then decided to reduce it to four.
Maybe he will get eight games reduced to five the next time Roethlisberger assaults a female?
Shannon Sharpe
Shannon Sharpe wears a different kind of NFL jersey these days.
The former tight end dons a coat and tie while broadcasting games on nationally televised games.
A few weeks ago, a woman claimed Sharpe stalked her, forced her to have sex with him, then threatened to kill her.
Sharpe took a leave from his network job, then suddenly the woman suddenly dropped charges and said she lied.
Interestingly, no false accusation charges have been filed against her, nor has Sharpe sued her for defamation of character.
Many have bandied about the theory that Sharpe paid her off for her silence.
Even if the accusations were true, it should have no impact on his impending induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Michael Irvin is proof of that.
Two women accused seven Packers of sexual assault in June, 2010.
After initially claiming it was one player, both of their stories changed.
False accusations?
In 2009, former Arizona Cardinals cornerback Eric Green was accused of sexual assault by a trans-gender woman and sued for $10 million.
Green, now playing in the UFL, reportedly warned the victim that, “This never happened. You’d better not tell.”
Long before he was arrested for training and betting on dogfighting, after authorities found the bodies of 66 dogs on his property, Vick was getting in other kinds of trouble.
In 1998, he was arrested for sexual assault.
Charges were later dropped.
Michael Irvin
Michael "I'm holding it for my brother" Irvin has spent as much time in jail and courts as he did on a football field.
The Hall of Famer now wears a Hall of Fame jacket as a jersey, and hosted a radio show for ESPN until canned for yet another legal transgression.
It was the second time in three years ESPN fired him for getting in trouble with the law, but that did not stop NFL Network from hiring him just over a month ago.
In 1996, he appeared in court wearing a full-length mink coat after being arrested for cocaine possession.
Two years later, he inflicted a two-inch cut on a teammates neck after an argument. Charges were never filed, but rumors were abound that Irvin gave the teammate a six-figure settlement not to press charges.
After he retired, he got a job on ESPN with teammate and fellow Hall of Famer Emmitt Smith. Irvin was arrested again shortly after for possession of a crack pipe and other paraphernalia. Charges were dropped after Irvin claimed he took the items from a friend in order to clean him up.
In 2007, he was accused of sexual assault. Though charges were never brought up, he is being taken to court by the victim. She is seeking $800,000 after claiming Irvin raped her.
Irvin has filed a countersuit for $100 million, even though the woman passed a polygraph test.
Why was this thug inducted into Canton again? He is the antithesis of a Hall of Famer.
Who Else?
There are countless other examples of football players to give, let alone professional athletes.
List your own if you want.
One thing is for certain.
There will be more instances ahead.
Too many athletes feel entitled because they get huge paychecks and face practically no punishment for their crimes against humanity.
It is time for Roger Goodell to stop talking tough and actually try to be tough.
Handing out suspensions for a few games has no impact on these millionaires.
Banning may be the best solution.

gosh
Thanks for taking time out of your busy day to explicitly not answer my question.
Anyways, I’m not particularly interested in your social commentary, but you’ll be in the hall of fame soon enough, Mr. Guy. Good luck to you.

You know what-
I’m not so sure myself now
could’ve swore I saw something a year ago that made me think that, but I can’t find it now.
As you were…

Not an idiot
Just has a serious problem with Goodell that I disagree with. He’s not the best thing that ever happened to the NFL, but he’s not the Anti-Christ either.
vjesse? areyou like 12 years old?
a contact sport is your excuse?
lets say that was your mom / gf/ wife, ect Big Ben banged in that bathroom?
you gonna say “suck it up mom, its a contact sport. don’t press charges and let them do what they feel because they get paid to play a kids game”
or will you agree with the judge if he says that to your loved one?
no one is above the law

My only problem with this post:
is that you posted it in the middle of a Redskins game. You must have been REALLY pissed off about this to have made a fanpost in the middle of an overtime game against an opponent first in their division.
its an older post I just threw up
stems from the latest debacle
I asked "when is enough enough?
though I realize many women make up these stories to hit the lottery, there are those who tell the truth and are victims

That's true
Only 61 are Saints, as per NFL roster rules :-P
yeah josh, big deal as long as its not your mom/ sister. right?

It might be true that it's not an endemic problem....
…but it’s definitely a big deal that it happens at all and isn’t truly punished.
I was pretty pissed that we signed LJ (glad he’s been cut now).
OK...I'm a girl, so I'll respond to this from a female perspective
Great, you wrote an article about this. Honestly, I’m not impressed. Yes, I would be extremely scared if I was alone in a room with Ben Roethlisberger. Still, this is a weird article. There are rapists and perverts everywhere…did you write this in lieu of the Favre allegations?
The world is a sucky place, that’s obvious. The NFL has a few bad guys, but I don’t care. I’ll watch football and that’s cool. Lawrence Taylor is a pig. Big Ben is a pig. They’re horrible people and I don’t like it when people make excuses for these monsters, but I don’t think you did a very good job of addressing the problem.
I'm back. YAY SUMMER!
Does anyone ever consider
That some women ARE actually lying about sexual assault? Ever? That some women would love to spin a quick buck by a hush payoff by saying they were raped, when they were actually engaging in consensual sex? Or just making wild accusations for the hopes that they’ll get paid off before they can tarnish the image of someone with the idea that they’re a rapist?
How can Goodell be “soft on crime”, when no one you listed (and mocked Goodell for) were actually convicted, other than Pacman Jones (for marijuana possession, which is borderline legal in more than a few cases, and certainly no reason to villify a person)?
Honestly.
Shut up, seriously just shut up
Women may lie sometimes but the percentage of women who lie versus those were actually sexually assaulted is small. Your male ego doesn’t understand what it’s like to live in a world where you have to be scared of walking by yourself at night for fear of deranged, twisted men. So stop mouthing off about lying women when you can’t stop to think about what it’s like for women who were actually raped. Men like you like to paint them as liars when most of the time they’re not. So shut the fuck up.
I'm back. YAY SUMMER!
Wow.
You’re a terrible person. Want to back off a tad? I understand you hate Lions fans with such a passion, but really? You clearly have no idea what I was saying.
Please, do me the favor and shut the fuck up yourself.
I'm not a terrible person
I happen to be a woman, sorry if I didn’t make that clear. And as a woman, I find your opinion disgusting. I have nothing against Lions fans as a whole (although trolls do get on my nerves), but this was just sick.
Where are my shoelaces?
Can you please
Explain to me what I said that offends you as a woman? The fact that some women lie? I’d hope you already know that.
For the record, I have many family members and friends who are victims of sexual assault and molestation of varying degrees, at varying ages, and I don’t very much care for it, thank you.
You come at me like I’m saying Favre’s a saint and Roethlisberger got a bad rap (I personally think he’s a bully, in every sense of the word). All I’m really saying is look, keep your head on for a minute, this is America. If something doesn’t go to court, if no one’s convicted, and the facts of any particular case don’t come to fruition, then all everything is, is an allegation.
I’ve been on both sides of the fence on this issue; I’ve had at least two male friends be victims of wrongful accusation, and one of them was convicted and is now on the sex offender’s list… which is a Terrible thing to be on if you’re not really a sex offender. Two of the closest females in my life (you can probably guess their relationship to me) are victims of rape and molestation.
I’m not heartless, but I’m fairly critical when it comes to things like this. Who has more to lose, someone like Adam Jones for shooting someone, or someone like a club owner for lying? Obviously, the person making millions does, and if a club owner is lying, nothing happens to him. I’m not taking any particular stance on Any issue presented in this post, but all I’m saying is slow your roll, an accusation is not a conviction.
I'm sorry
Sincerely. It just irks me sometimes when men defend real perverts because it’s possible the women lied, but not necessarily true. In most cases, as a woman, I will give the women the benefit of the doubt and I hope you do the same when people so close to you have gone through that trauma.
I agree that being put on the sex offenders list for being a peeping tom when 1st degree rapists are on the list too is horrible. Brett Favre is not the same as say, Ben Roethlisberger. If you read the police report of Big Ben it’s blatantly obvious that he got a girl drunk and then raped her in the bathroom….but, oh well. Anyway, I apologize again for overreacting.
Where are my shoelaces?
No biggie.
It’s a sensitive issue, but rightfully so. Like I said, I’m not taking a stance on any particular issue, on either side (I mean yeah, Pacman got popped for smoking dope, but I smoke too from time to time, so I can’t really be mad at that), just trying to keep a little sanity on the issue because it really is such a touchy one.
Just FYI, the friend who is on the offender’s list had sex with his then-girlfriend who was 1 year underage (17 yr to 15 yr), the parents of the girl tried pressing charges for statutory but the 15 yr old wouldn’t take the stand (because it was consensual), but when the relationship went sour he was suddenly indicted on first degree rape with a secondary charge of first degree sexual abuse. Life basically relegated to being no better than a child molester, forever.
That's awful
But I have to say that’s the exception, not the rule. Usually the men are guilty but they’re let off the hook because of a lack of evidence. With DNA testing nowadays it’s getting harder and harder to get away with rape, though.
Where are my shoelaces?
And that's also a very extreme case
As I said, the most painful part of the sex offenders list is that one time offenders (and I’m talking about minor crimes) are put on the same list as serial rapists for life. They’re tainted and it’s unfair. Being a peeping tom is disturbing for sure, but it’s nowhere near rape.
I do sympathize with your friend. That’s unjust.
Where are my shoelaces?
You won't hear disagreement on my account.
I think a lot of things could be done differently with regards to the criminal justice system and its treatment of alleged sex offenders. But the main problem is it’s such a hot button issue and parents are so terrified by a concept that we often have cases get blown way out of proportion, and I just have to personally, to feel right by me, stand up and be like whoa, slow down for a minute, think rationally, and call for their heads later if it so happens to be necessary.
I mean, I look at a case like Tiger Woods’ serial cocktail waitress. The first one comes out, and all the sudden you have floods and floods of people from all over the world claiming Tiger Woods slept with them too. Was Tiger in the wrong? Absolutely. Was every single one of those accusations truthful? Highly dubious.
It’s just things like that. Obviously as cases get higher on the criminal ladder, the ratio of truth to lie raises exponentially, but I would never put it past another human being, regardless of gender, to fib for some settlement cash from soneone who can afford to pay it. My stance on that doesn’t mean I think all women are liars or anything, just that I remain critical til the end in the purposes of fairness and justice.
That said, I can’t look at Ben anymore without seeing a bully. He just plain looks like a dick.
