I'm guessing you are the type of guy who judges a porn star based on their personality right?

I am well aware of his history of violence.

Its called privilege. Mixon will be living by a different set of standards because he is one of the best in his field. A tragic backstory isnt enough to hand someone a roster spot.

Agreed. But a solid, smart football player with outstanding running skills and speed? Yeah, I'd give that guy a shot.

I was not aware of his back story and only included the link so others like me could read what you were referring to-- don't take it like I am attacking you-- it is simply a link to the information.

Fair enough. Didnt think of it attack. I thought Mixon's history was well known. I know a lot of people draw a hard line in the sand on these issues (understandably) and figured that was the reason for the link.

Since we're making assumptions I'm guessing you're the kind of guy who thinks its OK to hit women?

Never stated Q should be guaranteed a spot just as I never stated Mixon didn't deserve one. 

I did state  "ain't that the way of the world"  which is a phrase commonly used to describe things that are not right, but that are reality nonetheless.

Which was kind of my point.  I never see anyone, especially the major networks, even mention what this dude did, which was cowardly and despicable.

It was pretty clear what your post meant. You dont think its right that talent in a field creates a privilege that others are not afforded. Big communist guy too huh?
