Around the League: Week 2

Even though I know that was a horrible experience for you, I sadly find it somewhat comforting knowing that there's someone out there that understands my pain, lol.

Same here. I look back and laugh at it now.

Wow. Sorry to hear that, I couldn't imagine having my nose broken by my dad. My dad did threaten me in high school saying he could whip my ass, I believed him too. He could have.

That sucks for anyone who has to go through abuse of any kind.

My dad did the whole jekel and hyde thing because he was very loving, and i believe he really does love us kids. However, he would drink and get violent and mean. Rough up my mom, etc.. He would always get the better of me when i was younger and smaller. When I was about 16-17 i finally had some size to me and during one of his fits i told him i wasn't afraid anymore and basically told him to bring it.

He overwhelmed me at first but i was younger and fitter and hung in there. I ended up beating him pretty soundly for which to this day I am ashamed and sad for. Two times he was knocked down and it should have been over with but he wanted to keep going so in my rage i obliged him. I'd like to think that I beat it out of him but i know better. He never tried me again. I wish i could take the whole thing back, but anybody who has been threatened like that kind of understands. My step mother called the police on me and the cops came - they said it was "mutual combat" so no charges were filed. My dad was sent home the next day from work because of his appearance. It was a terrible time in our life.

AP might do well to remember some of the beatings he got as a child. Because his child might come back one day and have something for him...

Ive never personally been affected like yall have, but I did work at a Juvenile Court Service Unit in a big city and small county early out of college and I had alot of exposure to domestic violence and it can be traumatic for the women and children who fall victim to that type of abuse. Its time the NFL gets it sh*t together and tackle (intended) the issue. I seriously think they need to approach the NCAA and work with them because that behavior clearly starts there with the kids today. These guys are already on a pedestal coming out of college.


I dont know about anyone else, but I have clauses at where Ive worked for the last 13 years where if I get arrested and charged for theft, fraud, domestic abuse, violent offenses, etc. I can be let go immediately. Its happened several times to folks where I worked in the last five years, one for theft of ice from a cooler, another for threats against an ex girlfriend through email. These were people in decent positions where I work.

I read in another article that allegedly at AP's house he has basically a "whooping" room - with belts and switches and shit hanging from the walls.

AP might be sick - he went through the terrible tragedy of having his son die like a year or so ago. I wouldn't be surprised if when he was a kid - he was beaten in the same kind / style of room. He probably believes that beatings like that are completley normal.

My grandma tells stories all the time of how her sisters and her were beaten. I mean full on like had the shit beat out of them. Her siblings have scars on their backs and legs from switches, belts, whatever they could get their hands on.

And the saddest part is my great aunt says how much their mother "loved them".

Lol, I almost forgot that basically the biggest advocate right now for the Skins to keep their name outside of the Skins organization is Roger Goodell. Maybe Snyder should be more like 'don't stand so close to me (http://youtu.be/KNIZofPB8ZM?t=58s) guy.' Of course maybe Roger is thinking the same thing about Snyder at this point. :devil:

Yeah, I don't get our PR one bit. Tony Wyllie was one of the most respected PR guys in the league............until he got to Washington, DC and it all changed. He's made blunder after blunder, starting with the suing the DC paper, threatening to take reporters credentials away via email, paying blogger to promote positive spin on Redskins name and so on. It's just one mind boggling thing after another. Who's driving these decisions? Danny? Tony?

WHY COULDN'T HE JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP. Everybody stopped talking about us and our name. We had silence. NOoooooooo...what do these dipshits do? Draw yet more attention to us. "HEY LOOK, IT'S THE RACIST ASSHOLE STICKING UP FOR A WIFE BEATER!!" :cussing: :doh:

I seriously despise Dan Snyder with a passion as well as our PR staff. Either he's turned Tony Wyllie into a dipshit or Tony's simply fallen off the wagon.

A lot of people here need to chill the F out.

???? ,you don't whip a 4 year old , period, but this is BS.

That's what the mother said her 4 yr old son said

A lot of people here need to chill the F out.

Why should we chill out? Can you even remotely explain why Dan would back one of the most hated man in America right now? This man is so hated, that Obama is currently sent him a thank you card for taking the heat off him.

After all the pounding we've been taking the past few years about our name and overall incompetence, why would you back a guy who's basically lied to the public and owners? A guy who's pretty much said domestic violence isn't that big of a deal? A guy who stripped 36 million in cap from us over their illegal activity?

Why would Dan Snyder of all people support him publicly? All this idiot is doing is making our target that much bigger. Is it because Roger supports our name? Well, that isn't going to mean much when the public hates the guy. Is it because Roger makes him a shit ton of cash? Yeah, that'll go over well with the public. Let me sell out my morals for cash.

Has there been a owner that has backed Goodell publicly since it was released the law enforcement did send him the video?
