And after the Adrian Peterson report from @MarkBermanFox26, that's almost a wrap on what has to be most embarrassing week in NFL history.[/SIZE][/B]

Re: Around the League: Week 2
 

AP, thats skinsfaninok boy.

Need to hear the details, but Goodell gotta be bangin his head up against a wall.

details coming out per TMZ(shaking my head typing TMZ):

Minnesota Vikings superstar Adrian Peterson has been indicted for child abuse in North Montgomery County, TX ... TMZ Sports has learned.

Sources connected to Peterson tell us ... the alleged victim is a male child from Minnesota who was visiting Adrian back in May at AP's home in Texas.

We're told the child returned home to his mother in Minn. who noticed injuries and took the child to a doctor. A short time later, the doctor contacted authorities in Texas to report Adrian.

Child Protective Services confirms they are working on a case involving Peterson and say the alleged victim is an 11-year-old boy.

Peterson was indicted in Montgomery County for reckless or negligent injury to a child, this according to Fox 26.

This article has pictures of the injuries.

When I first heard the story was about using a switch, well I know that was an old style punishment and thought it might have been a case of overzealous DCS people. But it always comes back to the pictures. When you see the marks, all you can do is shake your head.

Re: Around the League: Week 2
 

Think Goodell was driving to work today thinking, "Oh well, at least it can't get any worse than this"?

I can't remember a worse week for the NFL, ever.

From unconfirmed sources, those pictures are supposedly a week after the spankin. So that's a little more perspective.

I got switched, branches pulled from trees, etc. and I would have welps and red marks on my legs. I don't ever remember bleeding nor do I remember scab wounds a week later. This is disturbing.

Re: Around the League: Week 2
 

Vikings just stated ap will be deactivated and won't play this Sunday


Folks nfl has a domestic abuse problem

Man F... That, I got whipped with switches, belts, sticks, a 2x4, Cook spoons, got hit in the face back, had welts and everything else, my dad even broke my nose when I was in the 5th grade. I got whipped with everything you can think off and had marks that stayed on me for more than a week.

Wow. Sorry to hear that, I couldn't imagine having my nose broken by my dad. My dad did threaten me in high school saying he could whip my ass, I believed him too. He could have.

Shit happens, I got over it, but I mean I got switches at 4 years old and had bruises, the way I feel is that if they feel that way then raise his kid themselves. Some of the shit I got was child abuse but I had bruises on me after whippings all the time.

Somewhat similar situation here. No doubt I was a difficult kid, in fact I'm determined not to have kids because I'm well aware of what I was like growing up, but I had a few episodes during my formative years that certainly were well over the line. Granted nothing even close to sending me to a hospital but lets just say if a Ray Rice like tape was released one of my parents could have been easily been standing in front of a judge.

Certainly got plenty of verbal abuse growing up. True story, I learned the word 'retarded' at 5 years old because my Mother used to ask me, without joking, if I was in fact retarded. Then again the first time I ever pumped gas I sprayed my Mother with the nozzle, because after all if you give a child anything with a pointy end and a trigger....maybe she had a point?

I think it definitely has a negative effect though on a kid growing up. I remember a friend of mine telling me his parents never raised a hand to him and eventually had an a-ha moment when he later told me that he had never been in a fight. When I look at myself on the other hand, though I certainly would never be mistaken for a brawler I probably had slightly more than the average amount of fights for a kid growing up in the rough upper middle-class suburbs. I'd probably need 3 hands to count them all from k-12.

Even though I know that was a horrible experience for you, I sadly find it somewhat comforting knowing that there's someone out there that understands my pain, lol.
