Bengals address need for guys who punch women in face depth

His actions were to hide information about murder.

Where is your outrage about him being honored and worshiped by the city of Baltimore, and not being thrown out of the league for his involvement? 

Where is the outrage about him being handed another nice cushy job on ESPN?

His crime is worse, and he is a bigger role model. 

Like I said, I don't like the Mixon pick, and I do not approve of what he did but I am willing to accept that he has had no further issues. He admitted what he did was wrong he owned it and accepted the punishment. The woman he hit has forgiven him and moved on, so I have no choice but to do the same thing. He steps out of line at all...he should be gone and that is why I wish he wasn't here. This team gives 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and in Pacman's case 12th chances.

I don't consider him a role model. He's a bit of a tool, honestly. But he had some charges dropped nearly 2 decades ago versus being caught on camera committing the offense 2 years ago. There was plenty of outrage... 17 years ago, and there continues to be outrage today. 

For some, the fact that he was never put on trial for the crime is enough to completely move past it. Aside from reminding people that he wasn't convicted of murder nor did he plead guilty to it, I steer clear of him. Same reason I never got a Suggs jersey, and those are just allegations against him. I'm more of a Reed person. Just a good guy. I have his jersey but I don't wear it any more since he signed it. I also have Flacco, Torrey, and Tucker's jerseys. Guys you know/knew would stay out of trouble.

Then again, I had Rice's jersey too (before I threw the fake away and kept the real one in its packaging and traded it for Torrey's).
