you're joking, right? Whether he deserves to be in jail or not, that's the court system's job, not the NFL, not the Cowboys. The legal system did its job, right or wrong. The league made its own evaluation and punished him accordingly. He's now available to play. In all reality, he was out for 19 games because of this incident. Forget about the inconsistencies in this woman's story, forget about the fact that she's a coke whore, forget about the fact that this woman went batshit insane on Hardy in public, with witnesses,2 days prior to this incident, and forget about the fact that the prosecutors could have gone forward with the case against Hardy if they felt like they could get a conviction or the fact that a prosecutor said he had doubts about the woman's testimony. Forget about all that if you want to be judge, jury and executioner. He sat for 19 games including the official league suspension of 4. The moral crusade won. He served a massive amount of time, far more than was warranted under the league's conduct policy.
So how are the cowboys in the wrong? They signed a player who eventually did his time. Or do you believe people with one misdemeanor incident should never work in their profession again?
So yes, this has everything to do with fucking bleeding hearts. Nothing has changed here. The league already saw these pictures, which is why he was initially slapped with 10 games.
