My guess with the league's suspension will be six-to-eight games. Because of the publicity generated and the video, I would say eight. Fortunately, this is a first-time and one-event incident for Kamara and does not involve domestic abuse.

But hopefully the league will act quickly, and Kamara can begin the suspension in week one.

But if the police were called you would go to jail and face charges.

Kamara was arrested and arraigned with charges. He then pled to a deal for lesser charges, which is exactly what happens in more than 9 out of 10 cases.

Some SR posters leading up to the settlement.

This outcome was decided on a golf course. Let's get to work Roger. Make it 4 games with an appeal to make it 3 games. Then fine him and roll. Good deal. Dude will make some money in civil court with all involved

Pays to be rich, you get to play by different rules then the rest of us.

Im still in the camp of "we likely don't know the full story." We don't know if this guy instigated anything inside the bar before everyone left. Although that doesn't make any of thise actions better, that may be why the case was settled with lesser charges. We simply don't know.

Just goes to show how dumb some other threads can be. He was never going to jail.

Some were disillusioned that Alvin isn’t privileged

"YALL SEEN DA LATEST...IT DONT LOOK GOOD....DEY WAS LAUGHING ABOUT IT IN THE CAR....DATS DUH MOST DISTURBING PART OF IT"



Ended exactly how we thought it would. Now on to the Hill vs Winston debate.

6 game suspension coming since it is the baseline under the conduct policy, but it will probably get reduced since that's the norm.

Maybe he'll be explosive for all the games he does play in, not just some of them.

This is what I'm thinking, especially since there was video evidence that surfaced - 6 games appealed down to 4 - Back and starting week 5

Minor point, but with this plea AK will not be missing any camp time. I suspect he will come in hungry to focus on football without a trial hanging over him. Suspension will come, hopefully soon, and we will then know how long into the season will we be without AK! About as good of an outcome you could expect ...

 

[ELLIASJWILLIAMS]

So those “it’s not looking good“ post that are disguised as open discussions but are actually just a form of calling Kamara out for his decision making can now disappear?
