I will say that it's hard to have sympathy for someone you don't know. Brandon Marshall appears in the spot light. He is a star wide receiver. He appears on TV and radio shows. We know know very personal information about him. So, while he might not know us, we know him. I'm sure if his victim were in the same position, it would be harder to forgive him. But we don't know anything about her. Without knowing for a fact, it would seem that our brains tend to recognize people like Brandon Marshall as our friends. So, we are probably more likely to forgive them for their transgressions.

But yes, we should definitely be more mindful of the victims. But like with everything, I don't think we should categorically reject someone based on past transgressions (and I'm not saying you're doing this, I'm just typing). I think we should always be open to forgiveness, if someone proves they are worthy of it. I think Brandon Marshall has proven just that.

SI has uncovered that this letter to Goodell was in fact a lie... Wately testified under oath in 2009 that this letter she wrote was a lie.... and she did it to protect Marshall.

And Marshall was waving it around yesterday as evidence that he's wasnt such a bad dude afterall, and that most of the time he's the real victim.

I lost a lot of respect for BMarsh yesterday after that bizarre presser.

B&B talking Brandon Marshall all day again and called the Chicago press stupid lol. Of course B&B were part of the press they called stupid because they never mentioned that Marshall GF testified that she lied about Marshall not beating her.

This has already been posted. Only Marshall and the woman know the real truth. And she wasn't with Allred at her presser.

The show is insufferable already today. Bernstein still on his crusade against Marshall, and Terry Boers still insisting he'll beat his wife again.

Terry Boers is a POS. God forbid people change.

Dude are you serious? I swear people never read past the headlines...

Look at the facts of the case .. Keep reading

SHE recanted in court...in the case against Brandon Marshall...yes, so what...tell me which one is the lie and which is the truth?

The jury still finds Brandon Marshall "NOT GUILTY"... and then there is the letters from her lawyer looking to shake Marshall down for 1 million dollars.

So jury finds him not guilty...But you want to believe SI....

Your call...But, I'm leaning towards the jury who saw the facts

You didn't actually read the article, did you? The SI article is not condemning Marshall, but rather points out the difficulty in prosecuting some of these cases because of a lot of mixed emotion, and mixed testimony.

Yea read it...But you take a sports commentators opinion over a jury of his peers opinion?

Really? I just look at what he has presented out in the open...plus the fact that she was shaking him down for 1 million dollars. Along with the jury verdict...

Sorry you can't dispute that she isn't at the very least a very shady character.

edit - Added along with his psychologist letter of their 2 council ing sessions of how violent she was.

Nobody says it wasn't a volatile relationship

I can't dispute anything. That's the point.

And to the bolded part, I don't believe you read the article, because the article in fact states that he was found not guilty.

Isn't that the jury is for?

I guess I we see it differently..

Jury makes decisions on the facts presented...

Commentary is just an opinion...

Besides that is not what Joshj2 was alluding to begin with...

edit...With opinion there is always "But" hard to prosecute - And misleading people like Joshj2 into thinking "Marshall is lieing, it was all a big lie"

You are a very confused poster, who doesn't realize when someone is actually not arguing with you.

What is it in the SI article that I am believing, that you disagree with?

Is the atheistic point of view that mental disorders are either fake or un-fixable and people can't change? Sucks to be a God hater.

Proly should have put OT in front of that.

The fake part goes to scientologists. The can't change part goes to idiots in general. Nothing to do with atheism or theism.
