Justi, I thought that the point being made was that given that there
seems to wrongly be so little regard/punishment for the crime of rape, that the observation/comment was being made to illustrate it in comparison with the furore regarding the dog fighting.

That was my point. If they make money for the league they stay. However, Peta carries more clout than any human rights. It is a sad day.

Hi, thanks for the comment. Why do you call that poor context. For several decades Sports figures highschools, colleges and professional ones have been given pass after pass with the allowance that a woman's life is less value than a dog. Why else did OJ Simpson go free for murdering his ex wife and the morther of his children except that he was a former Football star? It is disgraceful.

I understand how they should not be compared; however, we have many athletes who went right back to the field after sexual problems. Coby Bryant was later found to be quasi innocent/guilty but he was not released. Our courts have not found value in the lives and humanity of women when it comes to sports figures in the few decades.

with poor context.

hi justi, Both situations are terrible in different ways. However, I don't
think they can be compared.
