Should we draft Mixon? (merged threads)

#41

This dude will have to deal with it. And maybe he learns and becomes a better man. For his sake I hope so.

 

 

Still don't want him on our team.

3rd round... 4th.... doesn't matter to me.

 

Matter of fact... I'd be weary to draft anyone with these sort of issues.

As opposed to a pot smoker or something like that.

Judging by the fact that he was yucking it up on the sideline and wanted them to chant harder when the crowd chanted "he hits women", Mixon is not repentant at all.


[BLEEP] that guy. I hope he has to play in Canada and a Toronto Argonaut puts him in a wheelchair.

Look at Jerruh Jones, he signs every degenerate he can get his liver spotted hands on and the Cowboys are a powerhouse. I just want players that can help us WIN GAMES for once, I don't care if they kick baby seals or punch old ladies.
Typical idiotic rationalization using the same old jargon all these other talking heads use. Guys dont have to be insane and beat up chicks

to be tough ball players, that doesnt make anybody tough. "I dont want choir boys" loooool so you need pieces of [BLEEP] to be competitive? knocking out girls whew thats the stuff of champions, gives em real competitive edge huh? Give me a break. You wanna look the other way about garbage humans being on your team fine but dont hide behind this nonsense to rationalize it. Just be honest with yourself and say you dont care enough to stop supporting your team or the nfl and call it a day.


btw who are all these degenerates making the cowboys a powerhouse exactly? Dak and his DUI is pretty much the only thing that barely qualifies.

Thing with Mixon is although he is probably the #3 RB in this class there are tons more just a notch below him who are clean off the field and still really talented. I'm not sure he's worth the risk because of that

idk. if hitting a girl one time is the worst he's done in his life I'd take him with our 2nd or maybe even 3rd round pick. sorry.

[BAD WORD REMOVED] that guy. I hope he has to play in Canada and a Toronto Argonaut puts him in a wheelchair.
I don't understand this sense of righteousness people espouse over guys who hit a girl before. For one thing, she egged him on amd put her hands on him first. Second, the dude went black and clocked her when she slapped him for no reason. Is it the right response? No, but I know how it feels to see black and just wanting to start whooping [BLEEP] when someone disrespects you and he made the wrong choice there. Does that mean he is a [BLEEP] for not acting like a [BLEEP] in front of a crowd booing him? No. Furthermore, who are we to judge him like we've never done anything bad ourselves? We are just not on the public stage. If you want to condemn a guy for making a mistake once and not groveling in the dirt in public at a game with antagonistic fans then my friend you are the problem.

Yes, the guy not trying to defend the woman beater is the problem. Go listen to some Chris Brown.


He broke the lady's face for getting handsy with him. He then put on a production after fans booed him for the behavior. Mixon didn't have to grovel. He could have just shut his mouth and did his job, ignoring them.


And no, most folks have not done something that is on equal footing to what he did. Because most people aren't the human equivalent of raw sewage.

I hope your father in law never has his daughter get you into seeing black, Mr. Rice.

Granted, I have no idea what started the argument, so for all I know the woman was 100% out of line.  That being said, what guy, especially one that's about to get a 7 figure contract, just reacts that way?  Even if he's undeserving of it, you don't just knock people out.  He's a moron.

The lady got physical first but most men have the sense to realize that you shouldn't uncork a bomb on a woman. Stop her from hitting you but you have the distinct physical advantage. You don't have to give out an uppercut.

I don't like what Mixon did but I do like his draft stock plummeting.


With that said, 6th rounder or later and I'm picking him up. If he isn't squeaky clean with us, he's cut and nobody will miss him.

"Woman beater". To be a "beater" I think means you whale on someone. He hit her once after she put her hands on him and then he walked away. Again, he saw black and snapped after she put her hands on him. Did he make a mistake? Yes. Is he a deplorable human for losing his temper on what was in all likelihood a [BLEEP] ONE TIME when he was like 19? No. I'm glad you're so pristine and perfect that you can sit on high and judge a guy as a [BLEEP] for one instance in one moment. Again, people like you are the problem and why nothing ever gets solved.

He wasn't "about" to get anything. This happened almost 3 years ago.

1. I don't have a wife.

2. He didn't hit anyone's wife.

3. You're creating a strawman. These things do not happen in a vacuum. 

 

No, the guy is not a horrible and evil human being for hitting a woman who put her hands on him first one time, when he was 19 3 years ago, and as far as we know has never had any incidents of aggression towards women before or since then. Again, you intolerant people are the problem and why these kinds of things are never solved constructively, because you're quick to crucify people on your high house with no consideration to actual context or, shocking, empathy.

The issue is your judgement is grossly misplaced, not the act of judgement itself. Again, unless you're a perfect saint and Jesus Christ himself, you have no moral high ground to stand on and blast a guy for slipping up on a person who put their hands on him first. If she weren't a woman no one would care. The double standard in this society is crazy. People want to rail about women being treated sa equals and not looked at differently from men but when one gets clocked for putting their hands on a man first the same SJWs preaching equality are now using their high horse to tout the fact women should be treated differently. The hypocrisy in this ultrasensitive echo chamber where women have the complete advantage is hilarious and the fact people are so blinded by their PC outrage and need to condemn and feel superior to others that they fail to see it is even more so. And yet, I can put these truths right in front of your face and you will still deny them "because". lol.

It has less to do with the sex as it does the physical superiority. If an old man shoves me, I shouldn't uncork a bomb on him for being dumb. I won't let anyone, female or male, to continue to hit me. But if I have a very distinct physical advantage, I won't decide to Pearl Harbor someone I know I can mop the floor with.


I know nuance isn't cool these days. But I guess I am a measured guy who holds other human beings to a basic standard of simple things like "don't break a woman's face". But I know that makes me a real stuckup jerk.

Also, not punching a lady in the face isn't an SJW thing. Every adult man I knew growing up pretty well made it clear that breaking a lady's face was frowned upon. My WW2 vet grandpa must have been a blogger.

Mixon had his chances to walk away. He didn't, he even escalated the situation further before she hit him a 2nd time and he ultimately hit her. 


The current issue is whether or not a team bought his press conference apology, which seemed to be reactionary to the video being released. He'll probably also have to answer questions about this other suspension in interviews too.
