Browns sign Kareem Hunt
-
And if you know anything about his family history... this could be the absolute WORST thing for Hunt.
Well, what do you know? Seriously, I'm curious. My brother has lived in Willoughby for 10+ years, I'll give him a ring if there's any local info.

For the record, I'm not angry about the signing of Hunt.
I'm just not able to be happy about it.
It is what it is, I guess.

You not know about hunt fam? Like real?
No, why would I follow something like that? He didn't play for the Browns, and I live in SW Ohio... Thanks to Dutch for the informative article. Sort of puts things in perspective. Hunt could have easily wound up being a druggie like Josh....

Well... At least we have the most talented backfield in the NFL.
The media though ?
Hey Browns fans, I know how some on you are happy about the Kareem Hunt signing, but I don't really like it. If you don't mind, could you read the link and tell me your thoughts about the situation?

It looks like it was punctuated then edited by a 5th grader.
Good enough for my thoughts?

My ASSumption that all browns fans know the local kids...my bad ?
I wondered if jd would go down this road, but I think this means he's already pushing his chips in. Gonna take a shot at it while 6 is on his rookie contract. So buckle up man...cause a runs coming the next few years.

As a Toledo grad I will continue to stay a mile away from this topic..But from most grads that i know from Hunt's classmates..^^this is the best "writing on the walls" that Hunt was up against most his life.very well written & spot on also.Hunt was at his happiest, simply staying on the Toledo campus..Good Luck Kareem & welcome home !!

Well, my sister and brother in law live in Macedonia, and their kids went to Nordonia. Jeff saw almost all of Ward's HS games, but that's a different story. As a Benedictine grad, I only follow the doings of our guys. Like Najee Goode, and Jerome Baker...
Hunt was totally off my radar. BTW, looking some stuff up on him, Kareem's Combine numbers were pretty unimpressive, starting with a 4.6 40.
You may be an engineer, but with JD signing Hunt it's not exactly rocket science to figure out that's exactly the plan. Get enough top players on the roster to contend for the Super Bowl, and as soon as practical before we run into cap busting deals with our top draft picks coming off their rookie contracts...

I won't begrudge an opinion. Much of that is valid, sports...people in general... hypocritical with sliding scales. I'm an engineer...and even I get more slack because I'm damn good at what I do.
So, if if it's so offensive that people who do shitty things make a lot of money in entertainment, by all means, try to shut it down. Otherwise, don't watch if you don't like it.
This position is not condoning anything...rather, I just happen to understand shitty people exist everywhere. Having rare talent, in any field, means your services are worth more. And someone will pay for those services. This is the reality of capitalism, and American in general.
Point being, hunt was not criminally charged. He's absolutely deserves a civil penalty. If he pays that penalty, checks his life, then he has the possibility to come out a better man. Check the contract, he gets nothing unless he checks every box, and there's a lot of boxes.
I appreciate the opinion piece, but dude wasn't charged, and thus has a right to work.

Thanks for your good and honest feedback dude. I agree with what your point and it makes complete sense. Thanks

Guy is into political correctness I see. Played the Kaepernick card... So where was his outrage when the Bengals took Joe Mixon- who didn't just kick, but knocked a woman out cold with a Mike Tyson right hook to the jaw? Not a game lost in the NFL....
Oh, I'm sure there's going to be media outrage that we signed the guy. Pretty sure we can handle the negative press, Dorsey certainly took all of that into account. By all accounts Kareem is a zero problem sort of guy in the locker room....

I'll answer some of these, but won't really delve much into the ridiculous idea that "I stopped beating my wife" as you are only trying to say this as some way to make some ridiculous point, which I have no idea what it is.
I never said anything remotely about it being different legally. The point I was saying with you not using it legally, was saying that it is sexism, not that it is viewed the same by law. But I guess that statement can be viewed either way. We are good there.
Again with the family, you are purposely taking that out of context, as when I first said your son or daughter you said dont bring them up. I was pointing out that I was only bringing them up as people would view their own children more so than others. My point being, I certainly wouldn't like it to happen to either (even your kids who I have never met), but I view it differently a female being hit than a male.
Yes, that word may have incited the incident, but the biggest issue to me is the assault. I think the use of the word is horrible and hate, and how many times have I said something to the former board troll about things like that, but there have been many instances where this haneous word has been used and someone not assaulted. One doesn't make other right.
As for release, if Mr. Hunt had gotten into a fight with a Male, he wouldn't have been released by the Chiefs in all likelihood.
The point with you being a judge, and since you have had those cases, when you read what's on the docket, don't you feel differently about an assault on a female vs a Male? While they may carry the same sentence, etc. Dont you as a man view a woman beater as less than a man beater?
Oops, I skipped one. One major issue is the average size difference in males vs females. That isn't a sexist thing, it's a fact. I think I would get my tail whooped by someone like Ronda Rousey skillset, but on average there is a difference. Another reason is the way society views these things, whether right or wrong in your mind. Just look at the only reason I replied, as saying it was sexist. I think women beaters are horrible, and most probably agree. People will rally more to protect them more so than men. And I also think that everyone deserves a 2nd chance. Last thing I will say about legit reasons is the documented difference in violence level in the 2. Just look at the statistics on number murders and serial killers. Why is that?

The point is that you wanted me to get personal in a stupid way....so I made it personal in an even stupider way. Now do you get it?

Think what you want. Put words in your own mouth about my family. Make up stupid shit.

Oh, OK, sorry, I misunderstood. Perhaps you are right. But that proves my point: that protective sexism exists. I am not saying that it shouldn't...nor even that I would not engage in it.

I think I fully answered and explained myself in the previous post on this.

Don't know....ask either a criminologist or a psychologist.
