i think it may be the best thing that could happen for us as a team!!!
we wouldn't have to pay him, AND maybe it will teach him a lesson and he could come back to play for us in '08...JMO

It's not the best thing for an individual's rights. It's ridiculous to think that you can punish someone without a just cause.
Damn Right Wing rule has devastated this country and it continues to creep into every facet of our lives. JMO.

so you think just because he was never convicted that he wasn't guilty?!?!?
maybe you are right, high-profile athletes never get off easy (thick sarcasm)
if is was only a couple of instances i would agree with you, but pac has developed a pattern of behavior that his employer doesn't deem acceptable!
how many of these things would you have to be convicted of to lose your job???

I think it's quite a reach to tie Bush to the Titans defensive backfield. Is Jones an "enemy combatant"?
All kidding aside, sports teams are sort of ran and controlled like public offices. Accusations are as good as convictions. It's all about public image. The public does not have sympathy for millionaires who ruin their careers from bad behavior.

I never said he wasn't guilty. It sets a dangerous precedent. What did Jamal Lewis get after he was convicted of felony drug-trafficing? A game suspension, wasn't it?
What has PacMan done to warrant a year's suspension?
