Adrian Pederson arrested

[Brian W]

Just heard this...domestic violence at Lax airport!

[majestik101]

Using a belt and switch again?

[Archangel1775]

Strange place to have an issue. Cameras and place everywhere. Then you have media/paparazzi everywhere.

[LCM1223]

I love how there’s a thread on the front page about Doug Pederson and it’s misspelled “Peterson”

And we have this thread about Adrian Peterson and it’s misspelled “Pederson”

I hope this is on purpose cuz that would be magical

Ah, the ol' "belt 'n switch".

His tickets must've been even worse than Dickerson's.

AP is piece of trash has to act like a big man by putting hands on women and children. Sadly he is going to be in HOF some day. Bet NFL will be proud to have guys like him and OJ in the HOF.

[ninjacookies]

If he's willing to lay hands in a crowded aircraft post-9/11...I can't even imagine what this dude's been doing behind closed doors for decades.

Hope she finds the strength to lawyer up and take half his assets.

Half of his assets won't get you a cup of coffee, that's why he is still playing..... or attempting to still play

[Giancarlo27]

All-time scumbag. Hope he doesn't get into the hall, but he and his fellow all time scumbag Roethlisberger almost certainly will

[Wade Mulroy]

Is it time to start a new thread and ask the forum how will he be remembered?

[Noles939913]

All-time scumbag. Hope he doesn't get into the hall, but he and his fellow all time scumbag Roethlisberger almost certainly will

Lol he wouldn’t even be on the NFL’s all-time scumbag team. Lawrence Phillips and Cecil Collins have him beat at both RB spots.

Try reading the article. Looks like another case of overreaction by Karens

Yeah torched the Packers so much guess that's why he has a 7-13-1 career record vs GB.

So nice you want to make excuses for a scum bag like this. Try not being a homer fan of his. Let me guess you made an excuse for him whipping his kid too.

Excuse for whipping his kids? Why would I need to make an excuse for him? He has every right to spank his kids.
I'll take his wife's word over yours.

[sportzluvr1]

Just trying to take down another successful black king— in February no less!

Did we not all just witness the greatest spectacle in pop culture history last night that was the Halftime Show? We now celebrate people who have a history of mistreating women and children.

Quit tryna’ Wesley Snipe AP!!

[49erRCCollector]

I LOVED watching him play until the thing with his kid, now this. Gross. Its the hard part about supporting players. The reality of who they are off the field is often a REAL letdown.

There is difference between spanking and taking a switch to a kid it's called child abuse.

From the Washington Post:

"The beating allegedly resulted in numerous injuries to the child, including cuts and bruises to the child’s back, buttocks, ankles, legs and scrotum, along with defensive wounds to the child’s hands. Peterson then texted the boy’s mother, saying that one wound in particular would make her “mad at me about his leg. I got kinda good wit the tail end of the switch.”

You are dinosaur. If this (the above) means being a "man" I'm happy to not be a piece of crap "man". I managed to raise my kid just fine without ever laying a hand on him.

That describes exactly what happens when you use a switch. What's wrong with it? Not all kids are raised the same. Some need it, some don't, it's far from abuse, it's called hard love...

Yes, leaving a bunch of welts on a 4 year old child's legs and genitals, several of which broke the skin and bled is blatant child abuse no matter the era you grew up in. Defending piece's of crap when they abuse their children is a very poor look.

I would hope any REAL men would intervene if they witnessed some coward slapping around their child or someone else lacking the means to defend themselves.

Using a switch isn't child abuse. The welts you speak of are the entire purpose of the switch. The welts tend to heal within a day. More kids could use a switch to the legs and butt these days from their fathers.

Do you agree with the kids robbing stores in certain areas of the country acceptable behavior, or do you think a switch to their backside is too much?

(and no, I'm not talking about Peterson's kid)

Was I spanked as a kid? Yes Did I even get the wood spoon on my butt when I was really naughty? Yes Did my parents or grandparents never beat me were they broke the skin? Hell No

Don't try to cloud the issue.

We're talking about Peterson. Cuts aren't welts that heal in a day.

Peterson beat his kid because "Peterson’s son had pushed another one of Peterson’s children off of a motorbike video game."

That's why that happened. Not because of robbed stores.

There are laws in place if there is a crime.

If anyone's manhood is based on beating on children, that is not being a man at all.

[BostonNut]

A switch to the scrotum sounds delightful.

Hope she finds the strength to lawyer up and take half his assets.I don't think there are any assets left. In fact, I think he is millions in debt.

Half his assets? You mean half his debt...

Adrien Peterson lives in his own bubble he talks about playing 2 or 3 more years, he better be willing to play at the arena league level because he is toast and has nothing left to give on the field.

He has also talked about coaching, isn't coaching about leadership? Beating 3 year olds, not knowing children and now this isn't leadership material.

[ejs23]

It might be fair to hate on AP for beating his kids... but that doesn't appear to be near what happened here. He "grabbed her ring and scratched her finger." Not all domestic violence is the same... he's no Ray Rice.

Michael Vick tops the list either way.

Well, "not being Ray Rice" isn't the the incident by which we define DV. Knocking out your partner and dragging them away...

He says he grabbed her ring and it was "one person who complained". He says that.

Sounds like they had a heated argument and he ripped the ring off her hand and scratched her up in the process. That is assault.

If your physical interaction/disagreement with your wife gets you anywhere near being arrested, you should look at yourself, not point fingers.

Sadly I’m one that would pay good money for it :(

You would probably think so since your wife has your boys in her purse.

A verbal argument & a scratched finger and knocking a woman out & dragging her unconscious body are worlds apart... even though both are wrong. If this doesn't happen on a plane, the results are probably less dramatic.

Of course he shouldn't have grabbed or scratched her, but he doesn't go into the Ray Rice category for that.

4 year old children are robbing stores? Video tape yourself lighting up a 4 year old like AP did with a switch and give the tape to CPS and let me know how that turns out for you.

If it leaves a bruise, you break the skin, or leaves a welt, its child abuse. I'm not against light spanking but that's about where I draw the line. I think parents in general need to do more parenting.

Spend more time involved with their children and actually teach them how to grow into good people and how to learn from and handle mistakes they make along the way. Violence tends to be learned behavior which is often passed down. Child abuse isn't tough love, its lazy "parenting".

Can I grab a branch off a tree and start smacking you around with it without your permission? The answer is no, because you are a person with rights. Children have rights as well.

Agree. We're saying the same thing.

But yanking a ring off of someone's hand against their will and hurting them in the process is still assault.

Absolutely. With how accepting California is of criminal behavior is anyone surprised they declined to file charges for a argument that resulted in a scratched finger? I do feel it’s wrong they taxed him for a $50,000 bond likely just because of who he is. For reference Henry Ruggs III’s bond in nearby Nevada was only $150,000.
