Thank you for speaking on this Quinn. This is the most covered up, swept under the rug stuff in sports. The popularity of Tyreek hill astounds me. The stuff these players and teams do is disgusting, sometimes you ask where dignity and values have gone at all.
Thank you for reading, Grace! It's sickening to see things like this go (purposefully) under the radar, and is probably what I struggle with the most as a sports fan. I can only hope that people inside of these leagues start to speak up more in the future and we can actually see some accountability
The person who will beat his wife in front of his children or his girlfriend until she is damn near unrecognizable is not going to be a good employee, he isn't an asset or a business partner. And not everyone deserves a second chance, at least not in the same place. What happens if he doesn't 'do the work' and the rage unleashes itself all over a ref, coach, fan or teammate? DV isn't just personal, it's local and workplace. What would happen if the abuser gets entangled with female team employee, or a teammate intervenes?

Hopefully with the rise of women’s sports it’s forced to
That was an incredible editorial, Quinn. You are clearly confident with your views (which I love), and not afraid of pushback.

Karma's a bitch, NBA.
