Cleveland Browns have signed Kareem Hunt. The irony in this is quite remarkable but I pose one legitimate question now and one at the end.
What if the Chiefs had Hunt for the AFC championship game against the Patriots?
When the public were crying more than people watching the Titanic sink the Chiefs did the right thing in cutting Hunt. Even though technically the Chiefs could have kept Hunt and suspended him the public outrage was too much to bear at the specific time so in a way they had to cut him but in doing the right thing they probably fucked themselves out of a Super Bowl appearance or even win. We will never know if Hunt would have given the Chiefs some extra firepower to get past the Patriots but we do know there are double standards in place when it comes to teams, players and their legal issues. The entire system is flawed but it will always be until somebody somewhere delivers lifetime bans for very bad illegal behavior.
How come the Chiefs get punished for doing the right thing under heavy scrutiny and a team like the Browns get rewarded basically risk free with the chance to win their division and many playoff appearances for many years to come if Hunt returns to his previous form in football under the guise of second chances?
Double standard is real and the main losers in all of this is the victim in the case and the Chiefs.
