What's your position on claiming the victim as the eyewitness?

Seems a little too cute -- and convenient -- for my taste.

To be clear, I very much respect Peter as a person and a former colleague, and believe he is a man of integrity who acts objectively.

That doesn't mean I always agree with him, though.

The NFL is starting to become tainted with power, that I'm questioning if the fairness and integrity of the games are still completely legit.

Independently administered polygraphs to both parties. Zeke's side should demand it. 3 for Zeke (different polygraphers), 3 for the woman. See who comes out on top and call it a day.....Poly's determine access to whether folks can get official clearances, not 100% accurate but damn near it. It's the closest thing an issue like this will get to integrity. If Zeke fails, he goes on the public "I'm really sorry" tour. Create a charity for battered women and do something positive. He can reverse all this even if he is guilty. Or if he is guilty, admit it and get help to turn it around while there still is time....

1. Um, I said that I did not believe that at the end of the day that jurisdiction would matter -- this is because even if a MN trial court ruled against the league it would be appealed, and would be decided by the regional circuit court that would apply law similarly to the Second Circuit. Go ask another lawyer -- they will know what I mean.

2. I am pretty sure I in fact do understand deductive reasoning. At least my professors at Harvard and Columbia thought so (no joke).

3. When did I claim newspaper headlines were case law? I was using your words as a joke -- that is why they were in quotes!

4. Never said that. I said that under the CBA Goodell had the authority to rule that the term "charge" under the CBA could mean an accusation by an alleged victim of domestic violence. I wouldn't necessarily say that, but that's not what matters -- Goodall's authority is what matters.

5. In all honesty, you don't have the experience, knowledge or judgment to make such a determination. (What IS your profession by the way?).

You are welcome. However, what either your or I THINK about the league's position will not make any difference when this gets litigated.

Peace.

which house were u at harvard?

Is inspector Putty on the case of "did he really go to Harvard?" :lmao2: :laugh:

Haha. I'm not lying. In fact I NEVER mention that unless someone repeatedly tells me I'm stupid or make no sense when I am trying to have a civil discussion.

I've been lucky to go to good places, but I firmly believe (in the immortal words of Bruce Springsteen) we "learn more from a two-minute record, baby, then [we] ever learn in school".

Does that being the first point in his statement suggest objectivity? What's your view of the entire basis of the decision being founded upon the word of someone who was admittedly willing to lie about the situation?

What's your position on the investigation being led by someone with a Giants shrine in her home? And who made a recent DV decision of only 1 game. Is it a conspiracy to believe the fallout from that case impacted the Zeke suspension? Because it was discussed throughout the investigation. And then happened.

Not sure -- I didn't have to take it because History was primary. I had fewer requirements in Gov. My first gov course was International Conflicts of the Modern World. It was usually taught by Joe Nye, but (just my luck) he was on sabbatical that semester and we got some guy named Kehone (sp?) instead.

Going to Harvard doesn't mean you can't be stupid or not make sense on something. That right there shows that Harvard isn't what its cracked up to be if too many of your types coming through the ranks. UPenn is better anyway

Whatever. Humor -- the last refuge of the ignorant.

Not BSing --






I've often found it highly beneficial in my quest to win friends and influence my uncle by insulting their concept of Humor,,, friend!
For me,reading something like that in opening a retort
Is almost an immediate dislike , and I don't believe we've 'met' on the forum and I'd venture to go as far as saying your probably an alright kinda guy and maybe even downright likable.:rolleyes:
