Viking RB Adrian Peterson Indicted for Discplining Child with Switch

I'm a strong believer in corporal punishment administered in the proper spirit with the proper tools.

I'm not a fan of switches. Had 'em used on me when I was little. A little too much and they'll bring blood.

That being said, I don't trust the "authorities" to make that determination. Too many of them have agendas that could send a man to jail for properly disciplining his child.

Don't have enough information to comment further on this particular case.

 

If that is true, it was too much. The next question is...is that the first and only time? Or is it a common occurrence? Does he realize it was too much with the wrong tool?

Is criminal prosecution really required or would counseling work?

We still don't have enough information.

 

It is ridiculous how far he went and is trying to justify it as some sort of accident. Chris Carter had a very emotional rant at the desk on his NFL show and it was fantastic. Unfortunately, the Vikings have reinstated Peterson. The NFL has had a pretty tough week but they are going to need to figure out just what stance they want portrayed on a lot of issues to the rest of the country. The female fanbase already feels betrayed and this isn't going to help things.

 

The answer is always Dallas.

Nah, they brought back the DE who killed his own teammate in a drunk driving accident last year. I know they are bad on defense but let's try to have some standards here.
