Peterson may have went a bit overboard here. Shouldn't be opening up cuts on your kid. Some punishment will be necessary but I don't think jail time. But then again, it is Texas...
Texas mom gets 99 years for gluing toddler to wall, beating her - ( New Window )
At least 10 on the one leg. And the news broadcast is showing more pictures, with lashes on other parts of his body.
Absolutely disgusting..
Bye bye Peterson. You and Rice can share a few beers and reminisce about a avatar that once was. Your playing days are history.

On his frigging balls even...that's beyond fucked up. There should be capital punishment for shit like this.
Jerick will be the 3rd down back and is the more explosive player. Just a matter of time before he take over as the every down back.
Reading that report makes me want to beat the shit out of that illiterate, back woods piece of shit. What a fucking waste on society thats gotten to live the privileged life.
Well, at least it was for a good reason...
$2M and a 6th?
close to privates. ..might have hit there too..
Test him for roids....thats a crime
Always remember
Someone shackle this guy ASAP
4 years old
Wrap your head around that
For anyone who says 'when I was a kid I got whooped'
Good for you. It's 2014 and this isn't acceptable anymore

Wow congrats you really have your priorities straight..
That doesn't make it right. And while my mother would slap us, we were never 'beaten' or spanked. And my father never hit us.

Asiata is trending in most fantasy football waiver wire lists right now. Although I think the better pickup will be McKinnon.

After seeing the kids picture and reading the details, I think what Peterson did is sick and far worse then what Michael Vick did and Peterson deserves jail time.
As for my fantasy football comment, I didn't want to start yet "another" fantasy thread and included them here on Peterson's thread. So sorry if anyone took offense to it. I figured we could discuss both topics at the same time.
"Peterson also allegedly said via text message to the child’s mother that he “felt bad after the fact when I notice the switch was wrapping around hitting I (sic) thigh” and also acknowledged the injury to the child’s scrotum in a text message, saying, “Got him in nuts once I noticed. But I felt so bad, n I’m all tearing that butt up when needed! I start putting them in timeout. N save the whooping for needed memories!”
An adult that does that to a child should be behind bars and barred from being alone with children ever again.

"It is important to remember that Adrian never intended to harm his son and deeply regrets the unintentional injury."
Precisely because he is a criminal lawyer.

Many posters over 50 were probably beat hard enough by their father so severe that they'd be jailed if it happened today.
Same here. Sure I got slapped once or twice by my Mom but that was it. If anyone here got beaten repeatedly with foreign objects by their parents, they were abusing you . Period.

They let Donte Stallworth play again. Josh Brent is about to play again. Those guys are scrubs. Dany Heatley is still playing hockey. Alfredo Simon is facing rape allegations 3 years after going on trial for manslaughter. We all know about Mike Vick. Kobe Bryant is BELOVED. I just doubt sports leagues will ever totally remove guys for committing crimes.
ESPN had this poll (with a ridiculously small number polled) in which the overwhelming majority of people said the Rice incident hasn't made them less likely to watch. People raise hell, but they don't stop watching. Until that happens, guys will get second chances.
