The NFL star “Adrian Lewis Peterson” who running back for the Minnesota Vikings
has suspended for at least the remainder of the 2014 season. The suspension
occurs because he reported injuries to his 4 year old son.
The motive of NFL is not to end
the Peterson career but to extend the running back time period in the league,
said NFL executive vice president Jeff
Pash said Wednesday morning.
Peterson suspended for his child
abuse who suffered from cuts, marks and bruising to his thighs, his back and on
one of his testicles, according to court records. He will not consider as NFL
star until April15, 2015.
The NFLPA demands that a neutral third-party arbitrator hear
Peterson’s appeal of his personal conduct policy suspension, rather than
commissioner Roger Goodell. Peterson case is like the Ray Rice who
involved in the domestic violence.
Hardin who represent the Peterson case criticized the punishment
and said "I'm just amazed the way they just keep making these things up as
they go along."
Peterson issued a statement in
September, saying he was “sorry about the hurt I have brought to my child.” When
you’re facing a felony charge, you have to be careful how much contrition you
show because it could be construed as an admission of guilt.
Peterson wanted to play the football
but NFL could not. Peterson will get his base salary but he could not play the
game, it is the punishment.
