Guess so. It just seems somewhat wrong to have people tailgating where somebody killed themself 24 hours prior.

This did not happen in the general parking lot for the games....This happen at the practice facility parking lot designated for player and staff only.

That's because that 14" dildo needs to go further up your ass.

Keep pushin'.

So, a Mom and Pop shop that doesn't have multi-billion dollar contractual obligations probably wouldn't be open the day following an employee's suicide?

This IS news.

I'm just pointing out all of the contractual obligations and the challenges the Fox Network would face by moving this game.

And let's face it: It's not the New York Giants versus the New England Patriots.

Commerce.

Such hurdles have been jumped before. We know that they aren't going to do it for this game and we know you are a hugely successful business man that knows everything. You're a big deal and we all respect that.

Hey you are the one that brought up the question.

"Dude, if an employee at your place of business killed his girlfriend, then offed himself, would the owner shut it down the next day?"

Not trying to blow your mind, just answering your question.

The correct answer is, yes it would throw a wrench in the advertising, but it's not the end of the world. You're talking mostly the between quarter breaks and halftime. Furthermore, this kind of thing is not uncommon. There's been more than one occasion in recent years where CBS has had to move US Open tennis coverage into Monday, totally screwing local affiliates schedules, for instance. You just have to deal with it. There are countless examples of things like this, mostly with sporting events due to the unpredictable nature of them.

In this particular situation, FOX local coverage would only been in the KC and Charlotte markets most likely on Monday night, while the rest of the country is unaffected and gets regular FOX programming. Is that an ideal situation? No it is not. But neither is your starting middle linebacker driving up to the team practice facility and blowing his freaking head off.

So you're going to pull this shit?

First off, you're WRONG. Name the last time NFL games were postponed.

Secondly, go **** yourself.

So, how many times have huge, multi-billion business been shut down this year because an employee committed suicide?

I'll be really anxious to hear the numbers.

Yes really. We have closed business when certain employees have died from natural causes. Of course I work for a company that deals with mental health so I realize that is somewhat special.

I think you have to differentiate between someone committing suicide at home and at work in front of people.

There have been cases some linked in this thread or the other where workplace violence happened and business closed for week(s) because of it.

In the thread where Quinn talks about the incident, it clearly states that a postponement was discussed, but neither the Chiefs (via their team captains) nor the players union wanted to go through with it. I'd gather that means the NFL would go through with it if they had agreed to do so.

So **** off, Dane. Quit being such a raging slapdick.

You are the one that asked what people would do with their business. How can you get mad that they are answering that question.

Yeah, I should really feel sorry for Jovan Belcher.

:rolleyes:

If I were his teammate, I'd be ****ing pissed that he killed himself and his girlfriend. I certainly wouldn't feel any pain.

**** him.

Oh, and **** you.

9/11 games were postponed 1 week.


Here is the deal, its KC and Carolina, 2 bad teams that playing each other have little impact on the big picture when you look at who wins.

If they don't play it causes bigger issues long term.

Its easier to play the game to little consequence to who wins than not play it and cause bigger issues.

Monday December 13, 2010. NY Giants v Minnesota Vikings. Ford Field, Detroit.

Originally scheduled for 12 December in Minnesota.
