You seriously don't understand the difference between him using that word and a white person directing that word to him?

1. That’s a massive leap of assumption on your part.
2. Try reading the posts that were quoted before replying.
3. Who says the word shouldn’t matter. A derogatory word is a derogatory word, regardless of the skin color of the south it came out of.

I'm sorry, but I'm tired of peoples' PC bull. She went out of her way to get in his face over a person trying to keep them separated and he shoved her away. I would in no way condone nor defend use of physical force, but unless I'm seeing that video wrong, that is a bit tame to end someone's career over.

You must not have seen the whole video. He ran up and kicked her when she was sitting/crouching down by the elevator.

Hunt put on Exemption list. Can’t play rest of season. Chiefs cut him and get another roster spot.

Remember him uploading a photo of his mom then getting pissed and messaging mods about it? That was probably 4 user names ago. Under this username he doesn't want anyone to know his posting history.
He's an ultimate entitled snowflake that hates snowflakes.

I do!
This might only be his 2nd name. The original was permabanned through no fault of his own. Someone hacked it (legit hack, per mods) and uploaded some apparently raunchy porn.

I just watched the video and read the article before you posted.

I will probably get killed for this but oh well, if she did in fact call him the n word then I'm fine with it. You call someone the n word you better expect to get your ass beat and you should get your ass beat.


I really don't have a angle here because I don't watch the NFL. The above is how I'd feel if it was any African American.
I don’t think he beat her ass. I do think the racial slur is a mitigating factor though but not one to justify a man beating a woman. Again I didn’t see that I saw a pissed off man that was too physical and assaulted a woman with (alleged) extreme provocation. I think he shoved her and then knocked a guy who ran into her and then kicked at her leg. Is this cool? No should he be punished yes. But this should not be a career ending situation. I think the video looked bad though because she did hit the wall hard because of his actions but that wasn’t direct and shouldn’t be treated as direct. I think the police came to same conclusion.

Mods, can we please get an apostrophe in the title. Please. It is possessive, just like Achilles' heel, for all the other English majors on here.

ESPN is airing an interview with him on their pregame show today. I think that's a massive mistake on his part. Lay low for a while. There's not much that can be said to defend his actions, and even if it's legit it won't change anyone's mind. The impact of the video is going to be much greater than anything he might say today.

Agree. Not having good people to direct him is a big part of why he is in this mess. They give people who have nothing and instantly give them millions of dollars and if the right guidance isn't there it goes to ****. Someone should have already put this guy on a plane to a tropical beach resort in a foreign country, but instead he will be on live TV answering questions.

Athletic is reporting the Chiefs kept wanting to see the video and the NFL was trying to stop that.
Sounds like the Hunt family (Chiefs ownership) was furious after seeing it and that Kareem said he never left the room.

Yeah, why his agent would allow that is beyond me. Someone should be in his ear telling him that an interview now is likely just going to make things worse.

I'm thinking it was a pretty quick decision to cut him after the video was released. There was no other move to make.

The only offence in this situation is him lying to the Chiefs organization. Absolutely unreal how the media is treating him right now.

That interview was brutal. He wasn't prepared at all
