Quote:So confused by this board...

 

Hardy was a heck no because he hit a woman...

 

Pierce is cool cause everyone gets DUI

 

Peterson is a No because of Age/Salary/Draft pick…not that fact that he beat his child.

If AP were three years younger with 900 fewer carries, you'd see me talking about his past as a reason I wouldn't touch him. As it is, he's an old running back with a ton of wear and tear. That alone makes him not worth trading for.

 

I'm not making noise about Pierce's DUI because I believe him to be a short-timer anyway. Generally speaking, though, I'd say I do regard DUI on a lesser plane than domestic violence. Reason being plenty of otherwise good people screw up and drive drunk, whereas it takes a real piece of dookie of a human being to hit a woman or child. Maybe that's a flawed bit of logic on my part; I've never really thought about it at any length before.
