Greg Hardy appears contrite and humble as he returns

appropriate choice of words.

But it has to be more than just a coincidence that Cowboys are being decimated by injury this year. The football gods are angry with the fact Jerry signed this scum bag.

expecting to find a link to The Onion.

You can't compel a beaten woman to testify and forego the money. He's scum.

But instead he's suiting up to play in the NFL. Only in america. NE can't score enough points on sunday.

how his leg snaps on Sunday.

He black balled just like Ray Rice? He picked his girlfriend up over his head and body slammed her on a futon full of guns. How is this any different than what Rice did?

May he fail hard.

There's no video of what he did.

Rice's 'incident' was caught on film and released for all to see. Hardy's wasn't. That makes a big difference to the general public, sadly.

What he's learned about himself after being suspended for beating his wife is that "he's a really good pass-rusher when he puts his mind to it"????

Ok then...

Seriously. reading those comments there has to be doubts about the man's sanity.

He can still play. There will always be a team willing to give you a chance if you can still play.

Rice didn't get the chance because he was pretty much done as a player.

Carolina let him go was because Richardson didn't believe his sincerity that he was changed or sorry for what had happened and he was hanging out with the same group of people as before.

There was a controversy a few years ago where he advised Cam Newton not to get any visible tattoos. There are certain types of music that are not allowed to be played at their stadium.

...

2 reasons:

1. As others mentioned, there was video of Rice
2. The fork in Rice's back. Hardy was still performing at a top level before the suspension.

I believe Hardy has a performance incentive tied to sacks, so hopefully he goes all out trying to accumulate them and gives up some huge runs due to undisciplined play!

I hope he snaps his leg like a twig and never plays again.

Let's be real... number 2 is a far more important reason as for why Ray Rice isn't playing. If he was still in his prime, the Ravens would've welcomed him back like AP.

:-)
Sounds like a born Cowboy.
:-)

Coming back from the Tiki thread.... now THIS is an example of a true POS

being at the game. Does he think any of them would be the least bit interested in him? HaHa. Literally zero chance. He's a piece of trash, and that's being kind about it..

what they're saying...

They're actually saying the guy is completely innocent because there was no evidence against him.

I don't think this is the case. Rice had one bad year... IMO, it was the definite media firestorm that would have come.

Random non football fans know who Rice is. They don't know who Hardy is.

I'm not saying Rice's uncertain status as a good football player didn't contribute, as it certainly did, but I don't think it was the main reason.

Plus no one feels sympathy for the chic he slammed because she was a cocaine sniffing haux. Not an opinion, that's the truth

When a local Dallas sports reporter was asked about Jerruh acquiring Greg Hardy, this was his response..

"Somebody better just give him a Super Bowl trophy before someone get hurt!"

Greg Hardy speaks up, my man.

I didn't register today, so whats your point. I've been on this board for 5 years. just picked a new name after the upgrade/crash/whatever happened that made us reregister

hopes that answers your question.

and like I was saying, one of the reasons why Ray Rice and Hardy are viewed differently is because people feel sympathy for Janay, not so much for the other chic.

Rice punched his fiancé in the face, her head hit a pole and he drug her out of an elevator like he didn't care.

Hardy tossed a chic (that was high on cocaine) on a futon.

That's a big difference to me. And I live in Charlotte and know dudes that smashed ol girl, at the same time.

I'm not justifying his actions, just sayin

and its clear as day. Rice may be done as a top tier RB but he would have been scooped in the preseason otherwise.

why should this be bannable? dude, I live in charlotte. I've seen the chic out. two guys that I shoot ball with "done nasty things to her at the same time". its in the police report that she snorted cocaine regularly. like, I'm not slandering the chic or anything. that's who she is/was back in 2014 when everything went down.

based on that, why should I be banned?

have no fucking clue how to translate this:

If it is referring to LT, it seems a strange comparison, especially since I don't think LT even choked out and bragged about slamming a women into a cache of weapons.

I think he's referring to LT. and wondering why guys are so bent out of shape about Hardy, when our own beloved player was worst. that's what I THINK he's saying, I could be wrong tho

Lawrence Taylor being a jackass has no bearing on Hardy as a person.

Whether the woman was on drugs or not has no bearing on whether she deserved to get beaten.

This asshole did something horrible and should be punished for it, not rewarded with another NFL contract. The fact that other people have gotten away with similar acts doesn't absolve him of anything.

probably just needed to give the bitch a good eye stoving....

"What he learned most about himself through the ordeal, Hardy said, was that he’s a “really good pass rusher when I put my mind to it.”

Smart guy, sounds like he used his domestic violence induced suspension to do some real soul searching, learn about himself as a man.

That was an asinine remark. There is no way the Giants would sign Hardy and his remarks today wouldn't be tolerated. I'm not sure what point you're trying to make but it was asinine.

He was punished tho. He was suspended, with pay. And also suspended w/o pay this year.

People want him to act a certain way and say certain things. But in all honesty, I think the guy has just moved on from it. This happenedition 1.5 years ago. But because this is the medias first opportunity to talk to him, they expect his feeling of remorse to be fresh (if he ever did feel remorse)

he made a whole year of pay last year for zero work while his legal team paid off the victim to avoid jail time. That's cool with you?

And he was given a whopping 4 games this year, basically a present for getting away with a really shitty crime. I hate him a year ago, i hate him now, and i'll hate him next year too. What does 1.5 years ago have to do with anything?

and those quotes further prove that. He then talks about another man's wife and family (Brady) in the process of answering a question about facing Tom Brady.

Yeah, piece of shit.

isn't "punishment". Hell, it probably saved the few remaining brain cells Hardy has!

And as far as I know, LT never used underage hookers while playing. And snorting coke doesn't even compare to what Hardy did. But I'm 31 so I was pretty young when LT was dominating so maybe he did beat women.

i'd hate him too. This doesn't fall by the wayside with me if the player wore a Giants jersey. Sports don't transcend the real world for me.

with pay because the Panthers would have been faced with an action against them by the Players Association if they didn't pay. His locker was cleared out mid-season, however, which was a sure sign he wasn't welcome back.

but may both Hardy's achilles tendons snap at the same time.

used to marginalize a woman who is the victim of domestic abuse is to label her a slut, promiscuous, or as our ignorant friend put it, a"haux".

Even if those things are true (and Im not about to take your word for it) it doesnt justify the violent crime committed against her, or somehow make it less bad.

Her sisters are better looking.

you don't have to take my word for it. just google her name. when she got paid off, she posted all about it on facebook, bragging about shopping sprees, trips to NY, snowboarding in CO. its just hard for me to feel sorry for someone who doesnt have sympathy for themselves. again, google Nicole Holder. you don't have to take my word

that was snorting coke at the game Sunday better watch his back when Hardy comes to town this year.

So what do you think his punishment should be. He missed a season. Plus missed on about 4 million dollars this year. Last I checked, that's still a lot of money.

$16M this year??

In comment 12532658 FatMan in Charlotte said:

I think the max is/was closer to $12M, but if he plays the rest of the season I believe he'll earn ~$9M and possibly a little more if he hits some sack thresholds.

Also, keep in mind the Cowboys basically mortgaged 2016 to sign him since just about any money he earns will count towards next years cap, not this years. So anything short of a SB for them this year is essentially a bust.

don't think I'll be sympathetic to a guy "losing" $3M when he's going to make $9M possibly.

He wasn't punished last year. He received full pay and didn't even have to risk getting injured for it. I can argue his situation was the best case scenario in fact. His 4 games this year for paying off a witness (which is also illegal) is peanuts in the grand scheme of his ordeal.

But again, you are not addressing the question about why the girl doing coke somehow makes a difference.

C'mon man, it ain't rocket surgery. It's like the rape victim who made the stupid mistake of wearing a mini skirt. She was basically asking to get power-bombed into Hardy's bathtub and later onto a sofa covered in rifles and shotguns.

Yea, about the only argument you can make for him receiving *punishment* last season would be that a monster 12+ sack season could've fetched him a long term deal worth something like $60M/$30M guaranteed over 5 years.

But even if he played last season while the case was "worked out", I doubt anyone goes near a deal like that. Certainly not the guaranteed money.

Gisele's parents should have been forced to procreate in multiples of 10.

He only tossed the drug hoe onto a futon. Who hasn't and he certainly paid enough for that little misstep.

whether you agree with it or not, the NFL deems the comissioners list as punishment. The NFLPA deems it as such as well. Everyone is quick to say "shoot, pay me to stay at home". but the guy was stripped of something he questionably loves. training at a NFL facility, with the best doctors, nutritionist & trainers around is different than lifting weights at your local YMCA. so there's a chance of your skill set diminishing while you're at home "collecting a check".

settling a case out of court is not illegal. it happens often.

and about her doing coke. that statement was in regards to why people view Hardy different than they do Ray Rice. Society is more prone to hold a grudge against Rice because "how can you strike your beloved fiance, the mother of your child, this wholesome person".

Hardys girl was not seen as wholesome, beloved, like, respected...none of that (at least, not by the Charlotte media). On top of all that, her lawyer couldn't contact her, she skipped trials, then low key bragged on facebook about coming up on some money.

Get it now or nah?

and don't get it now or nah. The woman's demeanor really is not the point here. Hardy isn't liked in Charlotte, regardless of what people think of the victim. He's just not reviled by the USA because he didn't have footage of him knocking her cold and throwing her on a cache of weapons so that Matt Lauer could grill him about it or SportsCenter would show the tape over and over again.

Anyone who thinks the actions of the victim should play into the reaction to the incident are either trying to somehow defend Hardy or they just aren't that smart.

You live in Fort Mill. That's like 5 miles out. Stop claiming our city

but again, the guy committed a crime, still got paid a whole season, and still gets to pay this year. By the NFL standards he was "punished" but he really wasn't. You know it, I know it, he knows it.

So he settled out of court huh? Weird. I'm pretty sure he paid her not to testify. That isn't legal, but what do I know.

As for the perception on what type of woman he beat, i'm going to leave that alone. I've said enough on it.

He is a woman beater that essentially bought his freedom to play. It's a sad and disgusting turn of events that a team would have him on their club after his crime. No surprise at who took him in.
