If a guy holds a gun to his wife's head (FOX sports reported back when all this went down originally, the only reason he plead no contest to this was because a whole lot more was going to come out in the media) - should he still be allowed to be in contact with his family?

I know (and I'm a white man) that I would not be allowed anywhere near my family in the community I live in if I put a gun to my wife's head...Shark, I know you're not implying that he should, but all the quotes in this article from the people who "know" him are definetly implying that he should be back in touch with his kids...

You're right I am not implyin that.

He was never found guilty (keep your OJ comments in a sack) of the gun in the son's mouth part.

Another interesting part of this story is that he is remarried. Most men that beat there wives are repeat offenders, I would like to hear what she has to say.

Just like OJ he is guilty and just had enough money and good lawyers to get him off.... Lloyd is a disgrace to the Steelers just like OJ is a disgrace to the Bills and the NFL...

I didn't say you were in the we love OJ crowd - I was making a point that some fans will excuse the inexcusable in an athlete based on how they performed during their professional sports career ....it had nothing to do with your post - I was genuinely interested in your opinion based on the article itself ...this is a sore subject with me - I did a significant research project on this subject in grad school - no offense was/or is intended...

Lloyd did admit to pointing a gun to his wife's head - via a plea bargain to keep other stuff from coming forward and to avoid jail time - so you may want to cut the ex-wife a little slack - yeah, he may not be guilty of putting a gun in his son's mouth ...anyway, this is a subject too close to me personally, so this will be my last post on this thread...
