I don't get what's so hard to understand about pleading guilty. I think it's clear he did something wrong, but it doesn't mean it was nearly as severe or indefensible as she said. Given the choice of rolling the dice or getting a guaranteed lenient sentence, I totally understand taking the plea.
That said, maybe he is guilty of everything she said and worse. I just don't know and people hopping on their high horse as if they do is every bit as bad as any victim blaming or any other convenient point of view in this thread. Am I giving this guy special consideration because he was drafted by my team? OF COURSE. But only because I wouldn't take the time to read whole articles about the Browns' 5th round selection. Dismissing anyone willing to entertain the possibility that Hill is anything but a total piece of shit is an overly emotional and unfair response. |

I hate the pick. It's not like the Chiefs haven't struggled with domestic violence between LJ and Belcher.
I cheered for the team and still will. I'd be OK with it when long Clark comes out in cheesy sunglasses and says "just win, baby" |

I do like that he seems to move straight ahead after catching the ball on returns. It was tiresome watching a certain return guy run sideways and backwards 10 to 20 yards last year-lol
We needed a Big upgrade on Special teams-and it looks like we got it. |

Ryne Nutt is the southeast scout. Somewhere on the team site is a transcript of him also a video of him responding to the legal questions on this matter. His work was most likely talking to teammates coaches and all folks tied to both football programs Hill attended. Nutt mentions Dorsey and Dirk handled the legal part of their investigation. If you google Dirk Taitt he is a private investigator for the NFL and handles these matters for the Chiefs. Just wanted to throw that out there.
When I saw the name on the ticker and thought wtf? Who? Then reading on here about this I was like wtf are they thinking. Watched the rest of the draft in a daze just thinking why risk this. While still disgusted I am glad they had a NFL security/PI dig into this and I would hope after their findings on the matter they would discuss it with the commissioner/proper league employees who handle these matters and get some feedback on whether to pursue based on the investigation findings. I'm just going to give it time and see how it plays out. I would think having a presser with this Dirk Taitt would be something that maybe could be helpful. Maybe not. Just going to focus on the other picks and UDFA's as this shit still stinks to me. |

I was waiting for that. Didn't wanna be the one to do it, but figured it was coming.

Being a PR flunkee for a team that's abandoned all scruples isn't something one should aspire to in life. But your mileage may vary. |
