But, but, everyone needs a 2nd chance

[Avante]

I'd try my best to recruit all the Hardy type players I could get for my defense, give me that passionate badass, that is defense. If they wanna butt heads with me we'll butt heads, no problem at all.

[spurraider21]

i'm all for tenacious defensive players. but i don't want one who's going to inevitably miss games because he's a knucklehead off the field.

Lyle Alzado was a madman on the field and a menace, but he was clean off the field (well, steroids, but no behavior issues that caused him to miss games).

[Raven]

i really don't get why is this type of stuff a big deal, unless you're an offensive linemen or a qb, an nfl player is supposed to be dumb and have a chip on his shoulder.

Come on guy, bone up on this stuff, ok?

You don't know about the time Alzado threw an opponets helmet clean across the field?

How about this...

At the height of his steroid and human growth hormone abuse, Alzado estimated he spent $30,000 a year on the drugs, often buying them at gyms around the country.

The steroids caused violent mood swings in Lyle and he would erupt at the drop of a hat. He suffered through 4 failed marriages and was accused of battery on a female police officer. He even threw a chair at a reporter and said his only regret was that he missed hitting him.

Yep, my kind of defensive lineman.

[spurraider21]

i mentioned his steroids, and i said he was a madman/menace on the field. none of those forced him to miss time.

and that "assault" was a joke. he was 42 years old, suffering of cancer, and needed assistance just to walk, and he supposedly assaulted a cop during that time? lol

i don't remember any of this ever being legal... that's like saying he murdered but none found out so doesn't count..

the big deal is when they ruin your locker room because they become too big a distraction and start getting suspended routinely, costing your team games

[spurraider21]

the NFL began testing in 1987, and they only started suspending players in 1989. steroids weren't prohibited by the NFL before that

if its not going to hurt your team, be a distraction, or cause a suspension, i dont have a problem with it

[Raven]

well dez bryant has done that for years and he's just fine.. don't get me wrong, I don't think it's good or acceptable, but if you don't accept it, you shouldn't accept it for anyone (like the pats do).

[spurraider21]

dez bryant hasn't been suspended in the nfl yet, to my knowledge

but he is a distraction, and the cowboys seem to embrace and enable headcases, so thats their problem

At the height of his steroid and human growth hormone abuse, Alzado estimated he spent $30,000 a year on the drugs, often buying them at gyms around the country. His second wife, Cindy, blamed the breakup of their marriage on his mood swings caused by steroids. She said she called police at least five times during their marriage because Lyle physically abused her, but Alzado was never arrested.

Come on guy.

[spurraider21]

steroids weren't against NFL policy. didnt cost him games. if she called the cops that many times without a single arrest, she was probably just crying wolf

Stop it little guy, ok? It isn't real obvious...cops...wow! Lyle Alzado.

I noticed ya ignored the time he threw a helmet all the way across the field, what if it would have hit somebody? You do know he once said..."I can whip any man in the world"...right? Then he fought Muhammad Ali.

Ever read about his early days growing up, this guy was crazy.

[spurraider21]

i said he was a menace and madman on the field. that would include throwing a helmet. i've acknowledged it.

what did his celebrity boxing match do to negatively impact his team?

[Avante]

Dude, he could have hit a reporter a cameraman, this is a little different don't ya think? What if that hemet had hit a cheer leader in the face? Come on guy, sheesh~~~~~~~

Spousal abuse, drugs, throwing helmets, hassling lady cops, thinking he's the baddest man alive. Dude, come on.

[spurraider21]

hassling a cop while under heavy treatment for brain cancer and unable to walk unassisted

Greg Hardy Reportedly 'Concerned' Cowboys, Missed Practice Last Week

Dallas Cowboys defensive end Greg Hardy was fortunate to have the chance to play for America's Team, but his behavior has hardly rewarded owner Jerry Jones' investment in him.
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported Monday that Hardy "concerned" Dallas after he was late for last Thursday's practice, didn't call the team to inform it of his iness and forced the Cowboys to call around looking for him. Hardy wound up not participating because of an unspecified illness.
Hardy was found guilty of assault in a domestic violence incident in July 2014 but appealed the conviction and had the charges dropped this February. The 27-year-old was placed on the commissioner's exempt list and appeared in just one game last season.
The Cowboys signed Hardy this offseason and stuck with him as the league reduced his initial 10-game suspension to start the 2015 campaign to a four-game ban. In two contests with Dallas so far, Hardy has produced on the gridiron in registering three sacks. Off the field, red flags continue to fly.

exactly, this is nothing new in the nfl. espn will hype it for a few days and fans will have fake outrage and move on by wed. coaches and teammates love hardy and he aint going nowhere.

See he was sick and does not have a cell phone to advise the team. Hardy wanted to see if Dallas really cares for him so he played Hide and Seek.

Huge red flag missing practice without calling in; huge in today's world of easy communication.
But I love it. Spellman, Pacman, ... the list just grows for Dallas. Angry men who can't keep it on the field. And then try to get in the middle of special teams only to be pushed out. He is clueless. He has not been on the team long enough to earn any sort of respect. Yet he tries to fire his teammates up? Fkn ridiculous excuses.

There's a line of command in the real world. African-Americans have trouble following it though, so not surprised by your response.

This isnt the real world though. This is a business where grown men make millions of dollars to play a child's game. This is a business where employees make more than their bosses.

So if Kawhi/LMA slap down on Pop's clipboard it's all good bc they earn more? Doesn't work that way especially in successful organizations. I would've released that pussy right after the game if I was Jerry tbh.

[spurraider21]

yeah you know he has some serious issues is in dez is the one trying to calm him down

Never have figured out where anyone gets this.....play a childs game. Football is not a childs game and was never meant to be. Tag, 4 square...childs games. Football is not a childs game.
