The Chiefs learned from their mistakes (if mistakes were made) with the Hunt situation as well. I think the Chiefs did exactly as they intended after finding out KH lied/mislead them and was willing to take the player loss. I think the Chiefs have given TH more room because he has been "straight up" with them and everything TH has told them is accurate. I'd almost bet the way the Chiefs dealt with KH affected how TH has handled his business with the Chiefs and it's why he's suspended pending but still on the team. [Reply]
When this whole story broke, I voted "No," because I felt that we didn't have all the facts. But if evidence was brought that proved his guilt, then he should be released, ASAP.
However . . .
If what I'm hearing/reading today concerning the possible/probable guilt of his fiance concerning the injuries to their son is correct, then I'm emphatically not in favor of Tyreek being released. If in fact his fiance was largely responsible for their son's injuries, then Tyreek should be reinstated to full participation in team activities ASAP. He should also receive public apologies from the media and much of the fan base for jumping to the wrong conclusions. Of course, none of that'll ever happen.
However, I feel that his son should perhaps be cared for by a family member rather than Tyreek or his fiance. Should be "ex-fiance;" they should part ways immediately for their sakes, as well as their son's. [Reply]

If youre one of the crazy, it's rigged types, I think we can safely say the NFL won't want this story dominating Super Bowl week. If there remains any question about who did it the national assumption is going to be him. [Reply]
If Espinal caused her son's injuries, Hill is still a rat bastard for not immediately going to the cops, just as she should be imprisoned and lose her parental rights for not reporting abuse.
The irony of people being immediately willing to believe a statement by Hill's defense attorney is absolutely flabbergasting.
It's not terribly difficult for any parent that is remotely involved in their toddler's life to establish if abuse is occurring. One or the other knew and did nothing. On top of that, we also know for a fact that Hill has abused her before, and we know that he has threatened her recently. [Reply]
This really is ridiculous. Until he is proven guilty there is nothing that can be said YES or NO. I see his fiance as unstable. He had to call 911 because she was passed out with a 3 year old running loose in their home? Really? Yes, I have 3 kids and 4 grand kids. I would never in a million years condone this type of behavior. Yes, they were terrible 2's and one even did a beautiful mural on our new homes wall. Still, I did not take excessive force. It can always be fixed and it was - for $$$. My point is that as a man, as a human being, I can't see harming a child intentionally - I refuse to believe that. Being rich or being poor, kids are kids and we have to deal with it as adults. [Reply]
