Vikings: Adrian Peterson won't play until legal issues are resolved

[apnu]

25. So much fail in this. CNN, Vikings, Peterson, NFL... my god.

CNN has a misleading headline suggesting the Vikings benched Peterson when in paragraph #3 it was Peterson who did the benching according to the NFLPA.

Then he's still getting paid for this leave of absence. This is a PR move by the Vikings. They've been kicked in the only teeth they know, their wallet when Radison bailed on them and they need to look like they're doing something other than covering their ass and providing cover for a child beater.

Then theres' the NFL who's done next to nothing in all this. They did next to nothing with the Incognito scandal last year, or the homophobia scandal. Now they've got one child beater, and two wife beaters all exploding at the same time and they continue to dither.

Its so rank that even Budweiser has had enough. That speaks volumes.

All of this exposes the great lie in pro-sports. Honor, integrity, athleticism, healthy competition -- none of that exists in organized professional sports.
