I showed the vid to my wife and she was like, "hmm, that's nothing."

The reason he was released is because he lied to the team and the vid just now came out. 

Agree.  Not to the extent of Rice by any means.  Still wrong and stupid none the less.  The woman is an idiot too.

Man, just dumb, dude was just becoming a superstar and then does this.

Thanks for the updates fellas, didn't see this until now. Either way dumb.

Still blown away by the Mixon vid where he just decked that chick but that sure seems like it was a one time deal
and that is all behind him thank God. I know some woman can provoke this but you have to just walk away.

Yeah, before I saw the video the media kept calling it the “brutal” Kareem Hunt video. I was expecting a Ray Rice/Tyreek Hill beat down.....but after I saw it I was like....Huh? Agreed, Hunt was out of line and in the wrong but it was not “BRUTAL”.... not even close.

This is such an important skill to learn. I'm not talking about just women of course, but just in life situations in general. 

It's not about trying to prove your the tougher person, or that you can harm them. Rarely ever ends well. Amazing what people will let get under their skin.

Dude might have ruined his career because of this night. And he 100% deserves his punishment too. Could have just walked away, it wouldn't have made any difference to his life.

First of all the Bengals don't have an immediate need at RB. Second of all the last thing the Bengals need is to bring in someone that is the focus of a lot of negative attention. I read a lot of NFL articles and whenever there is a player in trouble for something that might be criminal many comments are, "Bengals will sign him". I know it is a flawed statement since the Bengals have not had a lot of players in the crime blotter over the last 10 years or so compared to other teams. Adam Jones was the outlier. In fact if you search by teams here and select last 5 years under date range the Bengals are second to last. http://nflarrest.com/#ByTeam Not sure how accurate that is but I did find it intersting.

We got enough flack for drafting Mixon. Fortunately it seems Mixon has turned things around. The Bengals need to focus on players with good character that want to be leaders. Hunt would just be another distraction and I'm pretty sure we could all agree the last thing the Bengals need is more negative distractions. Neither Marvin or Mike Brown are equipped to deal with such negative attention. Plus I would not want him on the Bengals anyway even if he could run for 150 yards a game.

If they let Mixon in the league, then Hunt will be back, but not here. It would make little sense to sign him with other holes that need filled first.

It would be a waste of everyone's time if he came here.

Agreed

It's funny...all of the problem children we've brought in and it turns out negative in many cases...and 0 playoff wins in 26+ years.

Yet...when a guy like Foster or Hunt hit free agency...people want us to sign them.

You need disciplined guys to win in the NFL.

He would make a great receiver, better than Ross. You are missing the point.

From what I read, the police department refused to make an arrest or do any further investigation into the case.  This was despite the woman requesting them to further investigate.  The league took the opinion that since the Cleveland PD was not persuing it further, Hunt must have been telling the truth when he said it never happened.

Nah, out of control psychos play with the most passion.  When they say they want to kill the competition, they mean it..

Another incident from June is being investigated. Supposedly he slugged some guy

He should ask to take his 6 game suspension now. That way he only misses 1 or 2 games next season for his new (not Bengals) team.
We don't need anyone else with baggage like that

[Atomic Orange]

You would need Barry Sanders to make up for this piss poor line.

Well to be fair it IS an extremely violent sport. I sometimes wonder what these women are thinking when they take up with these kinds of guys so let's just excuse the abusers and blame the abusees the way most slobs would want it. Winning isn't everything , it's the only thing ...right ?  No? Hmmmm...
