YEp, I voted yes at the time, happy to be absolutely wrong. Thought he was absolutely done when everything came to light. Glad the Chiefs and the NFL did their due diligence [Reply]

If he did the things he was accused of I didn't want him to play football again but I wanted the NFL to draw that line. I didn't want more facts to come out (they did) and him get scooped up by another team. [Reply]
Nice thread. If the PC crowd would have gotten their way we would all be crying about what other team is gonna get a top 5 receiver. Maybe the Brownies could give us Kareem back. [Reply]

Careful, some folks would rather not discuss Kareem and how he was prematurely/thoughtlessly jettisoned from the team. [Reply]

Yeah. I guess that I've always had a problem with him due to the guilty plea from the 2014 incident, so it was really easy for me to believe the new lies. Now it all seems like BS. I really did learn a lesson here. [Reply]
