Another nfl woman beater.

So the chiefs and nfl did the right thing releasing Kareem hunt. But my problem is they knew about this in February. NFL has the best investigators Money can buy. How could they of not seen the video by now. Do we really believe once again tmz is the only people that could get the video. So disgusting lets hope this doesn’t show up so we won’t have to fire this guy. I’m sorry but if your making millions of dollars a year and kids look up to you then you should be held to a higher standard than most. They say she used a terrible nasty word that condoned him. I’m sorry no matter what a woman calls me I will never hit a woman. My father taught me better than that. So what is really up with the NFL and why is it typically the nfl that has this issue. Is it the violence in the game that causes this behavior ?

I am on the outside looking in but I feel that sometimes football players have a hard time turning off the switch from on to off field behavior.

Another part of me believes it has something to do with concussions etc....I am no expert, just my two cents.

Either way like yourself I do not condone this

Not to mention the fact that athletes have enjoyed a certain level of special treatment where this kind of thing as well as rape allegations and such has been covered up by colleges whenever possible.

Besides not that long ago there was a Baltimore running back which may have gotten away with assaulting his girlfriend or wife had the video not been made public.

Yup, I remember that. The major turn off is the win at all costs attitude. Even if we need to hire a felon to do so. Very low set of standards if any. Different times.

The offenders have not only been athletes but they certainly have had their share.

This really isn’t specific to athletes. Look at what happened recently with MeToo in Hollywood and other companies. Plenty of high level, successful men have allegations against them and while I haven’t followed every allegation, I’m sure some were covered up due to the power of the individual.

Well, I can't remember the last time I saw a Hollywood or any other exec beat a woman in public. Not saying that there are some very bad guys out there, especially at high levels but the NFL has a chronic problem with violence against women. As long as a team is winning, it's almost as if it goes excused.

Ed: You are spot on with the nfl right now. They have a problem with domestic violence. And they need to fix it. Immediately.

This team is winning a lot of football games right now. And this guy was a big part of the reason why. And they gave him his walking papers.

Now, from what I read thus far, there was a police/nfl investigation and no charges were filed. How, if they had this video, I am not sure. The team spoke to the player about the accusations and gave his side of the story. (Whatever that was). The team believed him and there were no charges so they let him continue to be employed.

The video then becomes public and they immediately react and say that the player was not truthful and that he was released.

Short of the fact that one could say “they probably had the video before and are just doing this now because it became public” I don’t see what more the Chiefs could have done.

Now I will say, I have not seen the video and have heard the arguments both ways. I need to find the video clip and form my own opinion. But will have to say with 99.9% certainty, the people that have argued “she was harassing him and had it coming” probably won’t like my opinion.

You can easily google domestic abuse and Hollywood and get results of celeb cases of violence, only difference to here is no video.

Corporate execs are a bit harder since most are more lowkey and the average person wouldn’t care as much. FWIW current potus has multiple sexual misconduct allegations but a good chunk of the country seem to turn the other way on that

I’m not an nfl player but I’ve never hit a woman in my life. That’s how I was brought up.

Well let’s not forget this was a 19 year old girl I believe. They were letting her party with them. I would be a pretty pissed off father seeing that video if that was my daughter also. She has a lot of explaining to do when her dad finds out

Funny thing was he has plenty of chances to just walk away and closed the door. But she probably did call him names etc. he should have known better. Thought he was in the clear. Now today is one of the worst days of his life I bet. Jobless for now and one of the most hated men in America for the week

They need to make an example of this guy. Out for life, instead they will send him to some counseling and therapy and make it all better. Where is the police on this? Shouldn't he be prosecuted? This is one of the reasons I stopped watching the NFL after 40+ years.

I get what you’re saying, but you don’t think players and men in general having been beating on women since forever.

And cop beatings and shootings and god knows what else. And walking while black, and driving while black.

Nothing new here except for camera phones and social media.

Correct, nothing new. However what makes this resonate differently is the fact that these guys are well paid and in many cases admired by fans. They get caught doing something horrible and they often pay a minimal price. The punishment needs to be harsher. Examples need to be made. Period.

Did you guys watch the video? There were people holding him back and she kept on and on and on. So ridiculous. Still, he should've walked away from it all. Probably would've had to lock himself in his room to get away from her. The hardest hit was actually from two others wrestling and bumped into him, which pushed her into a wall pretty hard.

Wonder if any of the players are willing to kneel in protest of the way some of their union brothers treat women?

That would mean they would turn on one of their teammates. God forbid that should ever happen.

Yeah, she is belligerent. But there's a massive strength difference between an elite NFL running back and this 19 year old girl. He has no excuse for raising a hand against her. A non-idiot would call the front desk, ask for her to be removed, and give her back her personal belongings.
