Alvin Kamara suspended for 3 games (3 Viewers)

Yes, because losing self control in the face of such things doesn't have any responsibility whatsoever....or whatever else you tell yourself.

please tell me where i ever said anything remotely close to that? Matter of fact, multiple times i said he didn't deserve the beating that he took. but sometimes you play with fire, you are bound to get burned eventually. the fire is still to blame, but karma is a birch.

My point is, the reason Kamara got a misdomeaner and only 3 games was because this guy was chasing money and it wasn't a secret. The Vegas DA knew that and even Ol Rog knew that.

He did leave his job of being a head coach and ceased to work for a year, so by your own definition he retired.

You don't know what cease means, my friend. Cease means to bring or come to an end. That definition suggests finality. No where in the definition is there room for an interpretation that includes "starting work again". If you quit your job and don't work for a week, 6 months, or a year before finding a new job, you're unemployed not retired.

Retirement these days seems like just a legal term. Although SP 'retired' from coaching he never really retired because he went straight to work as an analyst. so he never retired. that term is used way too loosely these days. So no, SP didn't retire. he stepped down and used "retirement" as a legal term probably so he didn't have to pay money back as a penalty for breaking a contract. he NEVER ceased to work, and it was never his intention to quit working..

Not sure if posted already but good stuff from Florio and Simms. Florio says every team should save the clip of Kamara taking responsibility, to use as an example for the occasions when players get into trouble.

You might be correct about the Vegas DA, but I will question you if you think ole Warden thought of that.. Goodell only cares about himself. I am still convinced his vendetta is against Payton, not the players.
