seems weird to me that he'd be all intent to play this weekend given this occurrence

guess he wasn't that close with his son or really into acknowledging him as his child in the same way as his other kid

most people would definitely take off work with a family crisis like this.  but when your job is football and playing gives u 3 hrs to not think about it its understandable.  i can see where hes coming from.

or like u said maybe hes just not that close with that son. either way hope lil man makes it
 
The guy that did this needs to be executed publicly.

I don't give five flying *****, if you beat a child, you die. Savagely.

**** you, you die.

Kid turns 18, beat away, he can defend his own self by that point. Kid is wearin pampers, you touch him, you die.

Save the prosecution, the paperwork, the bs book deals, the meals in prison, the anything. Kill him, do it on live tv.
 
Honestly, in some circumstances even death isn't enough of a punishment.

People like this man deserve far worse. But seeing as how this is S&T I'll let you all use your own imaginations.

It is his son, confirmed by Adrian's dad. It's just not Adrian Jr. but his other son

Apparently the dude and his brother have been beating women and children for awhile so this isn't the first. They were adopted by some rich family who has been paying off victims so they never sniff a jail cell.

You sound ignorant.

People deal with things in different manners, to say he doesn't care or such and such is down right dumb.

We don't know him or the situation.

The real tragedy is the kid |I |I

well you're right that different people deal with different things, but it's hardly an ignorant thought or statement. at all

i just don't know too many people who would choose to go to "work" rather than be by their kid's hospital bedside if their child was in that sort of predicament

of course the real tragedy is the kid. i never implied otherwise

Everyone handles traumatic/tragic incidents in their lives differently.

AD probably feels that playing football, will help him cope with the situation with his son.

Just because he intends to play on Sunday doesn't mean that he doesn't care about his son. Brett Favre played a game a day after his father died. That didn't mean that he did not love or care for him. A lot of athletes deal with tragedy in their lives by turning to their respective sports. I imagine doing what they do best is often therapeutic to them.

Might wanna stop jumping to conclusions.
 
ImO having your pops die is a little different then having your child be beaten to death. I think it would be odd if AP plys this Sunday if his kid does indeed pass. Im not trying to judge or make assumptions, but yeah that seems odd to me.
 
"@JosinaAnderson: Breaking: Sources: Bears LB DJ Williams is out for the season with a torn pec."
 
I am absolutely disgusted concerning the AP Son story, if that needed to be said.

What the **** was the mom doing leaving her 2 year old with a guy she hadn't known for that long?!

Pretty much.

Staph is GROSS. :x

Word. I had staph in my hand twice. The first time I was in the military and there were no medical people around, so this dude had to squeeze it out from under my thumbnail. Worst pain ever

Had it in my stomach a couple months back. Was walking hunched over at work initially cause I thought it wasn't much and would go away on its own, then it got worse and eventually had it lanced, then at random times either myself, a coworker, or my dad was squeezing the crap out of it, with everything looking like macaroni pouring out of my stomach. Hands down worst pain I've ever felt.
 
The thought defnitely crossed my mind when watching his presser about what kind of relationship he has with the kid. Either way, I commend his strength given the situation and have nothing but respect and love for AP as I know that everyone has their own way and their own level of fortitude when it comes to personal matters such as these.
 
people mourn differently. i wouldn't find it strange if he played. it's a half day release mentally from what he's going through. i get it.
 
sad situation with APs kid. hope he recovers.

the bucs facility has to be some kind of breading ground for bacteria :x
