How come Matt Jones of JAX hasn't been suspended yet?

Can anyone tell me why getting caught snorting cocaine doesn't merit an immediate suspension, or a suspension at all? By no means am I defending Burress, but they are making this out to be the crime of the century and guys like Matt Jones, Adam Jones, Leonard Little, etc. are still playing football...

  • Yet the Vikings playoff hopes are lessened today with the suspension of our run stoppers the Williams boys, for taking a FAT MAN PILL. Nothing to do with roids, but they are lost now for the last 4 games. Why did he wait all year, this was a well documented issue at the start of the year. Goddell is an a**hole.

    But Pacman is back, along with alot of other thugs.image
    Am I speaking Chinese?

    As far as the media coverage goes, my guess would be the fact that Burress had a gun with possible intent to harm somebody. Not to mention the dumba$$ shot himself.

    It's a much bigger story than some guy snorting coke or another guy getting in a minor scuffle with his "body guard"

    Somebody ended up paralyzed in the Adam Jones mess...that's not a minor scuffle.

    Did not know that.

    Even so, a high profile receiver on a sb champion team doing what he did ,is a much sexier media story.

    Mark, I just realized you're talking about the Vegas incident.

    I was referring to the incident that Pacman had with his security guard in Dallas. That is the minor scuffle I was referring to.

    You asked why such a big deal was being made about the Plaxico mess. It's because it's current. It's not something that happened 1.5 years ago.
