We have banned Adrian Peterson from our FFL for life - please join us (1 Viewer)

I sent this message to the league this evening:

"League,

As I got off the plane today and went online, I was deeply shocked by the pictures that was released of Adrian Peterson and his then-son. As a father of 2 girls, I will not stand for any child abuse of the sort I saw. It was deeply disturbing, especially to see them together still (as father and son) afterwards.

I quickly talked to Tom, who owns Adrian Peterson in our league, and we both immediately agreed that Tom would drop Adrian Peterson, and I would take the Executive Action of banning Adrian Peterson from our league forever. He can not be picked up this season, he can not be drafted next season, nor any season afterwards. From here on, he does not exist in our league.

I have no qualifications to suggest this, but if you are being abused, or know of anyone being abused, contact the police or a women's group that can help the abused get out of the situation. If you have ever hit a child in your life in anger or frustration, please get counseling so that it doesn't progress further, and never raise your hand again.

I know that I'm stretching the authority of my position here, but I hope that you will be understanding and supportive. And I applaud Tom for being completely aligned and supportive, despite the hole this scumbag has left in Tom's team."


I also ask, if anybody on this forum knows how to delete a player from MFL, please let me know.

Does this apply to Ray Rice, Dez Bryant, Brandon Marshall who have also gotten in trouble for domestic abuse or are we just cherry picking here?

What crimes are acceptable so that it's OK to draft a player?

 
This is silly. Everyone who agrees with this is silly. We use thousands of products throughout the year. I don't go around snooping into the employees of Pepsi to make sure no one there is a criminal so I can ban that product. Let football players play football. If they break the law let the law take care of it. Bottom line.

 
I think I'm going to start a league were you are only allowed to draft players that are criminals, drunk drivers, domestic abusers, and hibutital drug addicts.

LOL, this is extremely dumb. ... another case of the commissioner over stepping their powers. This is fantasy football. You should go ahead and ban all other players who have criminal records or have committed actions that conflict with your morals. [SIZE=14.4444446563721px]SMH [/SIZE]...

I banned eli Manning from my league for looking like a goober. I also banned Tom Brady because he's a ##### bag

You forgot Terrelle Suggs.

 
What should we do about Plaxico? More or less offensive when your felony conviction is against yourself. Can I draft him in my old-timer's league?

I'm doing a background check on every deviant actor and director of all movies ever released and destroying any dvds that are in my collection.
