Greg Hardy arrested for domestic violence
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...stic-violence/
As it turns out, the franchise tag was the least of Greg Hardy’s worries this offseason. Via WSOC-TV in Charlotte, Panthers defensive end Greg Hardy was arrested for domestic violence involving his girlfriend, according to Charlotte-Mecklenburg police. At the moment, details are scarce on the incident, which is a misdemeanor. The Panthers gave Hardy a $1.3 million advance on his $13.1 million franchise tender, pending him showing up for offseason workouts. While Hardy slipped to the sixth round of the 2010 Draft because of some injury and character concerns, so far he’s only been a harm to himself. A pre-training camp motorcycle crash slowed him down in 2011, and then he did silly things like take Twitter pictures while doing 100 mph in his Bentley. |

What's the exempt list? Is it like a franchise tag? Can NFL teams declare one player exempt from domestic violence laws?

WR BRandon Marshall will be next. The real question is will ESPN man up and fire Ray Lewis.

Doubt that they'll hit Marshall with anything at this point, been too long to punish him for what he did. Now, if he gets hit with another abuse charge, then he's done in the NFL.

And they should.
The NFLPAs rules and (likely) recent decisions have to be made with the same reasoning we have to have competent attorneys defend scumbags in court.

Well, isn't it technically illegal to take away pay from an employee while they are dealing with legal issues?
Every contract, from now on, is going to have a domestic abuse clause. Guarantees are voided if you get convicted. |
