Domestic Abuse U - Oklahoma

[GATTACA!]

Good lord. You're hopeless. BTW researched what caused the argument and it was Mixon who made a homosexual slur toward the friend she was with.

And her response to being offended was to get in his face, shove him, and slap him in the side of the head.

Seems reasonable.

 

[NorthDakota]

She deserved it. He's still a dick.

Being a girl is not an excuse to go around slapping men. You are playing with fire at that point. If you lay a hand on someone, be prepared for the possibility they will do the same to you.

I grew up with older sisters. We got in fights relatively often. I got pounded. Eventually I got bigger than them, and they learned I can hit a lot harder than they can. They stopped escalating fights to a physical level after that.

I'm guessing this chick will think twice in the future before slapping at a person who has the size and strength to end her.

 

[TorontoGold]

Really shouldn't be tough to see, in no way was Mixon in the right to knock her out clean. She pushed him and slapped him so it's ok to clean her clock? Is that the lesson you want to teach your son?

Nobody is taking away your "manhood" if show just the tiniest bit of humanity.

Here's an idea, don't slap and push people unless you are okay with escalating things.

1000% correct + agree

Walk away and call the police saying she was assaulting you? That could be considered escalating things. Also, why do you need to escalate things?

He's a public figure, why do something that could cost you exponential amounts of money over a crazy chick? -F that, she hurt my pride so I'll teach her a lesson! Spot on logic.

I didn't say he shouldn't walk away. I said she deserved it.

I said don't escalate it to that level if you aren't willing to get hit.

Honestly I think the table is what did more damage than him hitting her. So that made the case even more serious considering she had four broken bones in her face.

I'd guess if it was only the punch, she'd probably just have a black eye and not much more would be made of it. Besides the one year suspension.

Let me also say I don't think either of their actions are defendable. Just stating it was made worse by the injuries that were probably caused by the table. Not him.

For what it's worth I can pretty much guarantee you that his fist hit her with a whole lot more force than the table did but even if you're right you assume the risk of something unexpected making matters worse when you hit someone like that. Like it's reasonably foreseeable that she would hit something (table, chair, ground) on her way down so it doesn't really make it less bad.

She should be the one assuming the risk. She engaged him.

I've never hit or slapped a woman. I am a believer in the idea that if you can throw a punch, you can take a punch, though. Too many women think they can just slap a guy any time they're mad, frustrated, not getting their way, etc., and he shouldn't be able to defend himself or retaliate. That's BS. It has to be a reasonable reply. A 120 lb. girl slapping a guy as hard as she can doesn't justify a 200 lb. guy retaliating with his hardest shot. If Mixon had slapped her back as hard as she slapped him, I'd say she asked for that and maybe learned a lesson. Him trying to take her head off with a closed fist punch was completely uncalled for. What he did was so over the top and egregious that he should have been permanently banned from OU.

Agree on all except the ban and if that woman was 120lbs, then I can fly. Those meaty quads and arms on her put her a min of 140. Possibly more.

Fact is, in American society, he could not win. if slapped her back, he would've been the bad guy.

if he would have sought her out and was the aggressor, then he should have been banned. But SHE sought him out, verbally assaulted him and then physically assaulted him.

Hopefully they both learned a lesson but I doubt trash like both of them did.

 

[Andy in Sactown]

Not intended to overly detract from the 200lbs player vs. 135 lbs biotch argument, but the only thing that came to mind reading this back and forth was, "how much you want to bet a civil suit wont ever get filed until he signs a professional contract, then it'll be filed like clock-work".

Just an extension of the theme a (not all) women's character (or lack there of) in this day and age, perhaps.. I totally pictured her high as shit on pain killers with her broken face, telling her low values slut brigade how she's going to sue the shit out of him once he gets paid.

Maybe, she's a very virtuous person, but that's what went through my mind.

Back to your regularly scheduled programming.

Oklahoma's Bob Stoops: Joe Mixon's punishment 'wasn't enough' - CBSSports.com
by Tom Fornelli Dec 22, 2016

Bob Stoops, who suspended Oklahoma running back Joe Mixon for the entire 2014 season after Mixon punched a female student, on Wednesday said the punishment for Mixon wasn't enough, and had the incident occurred today, Mixon's dismissal from the team would be the only acceptable outcome.

...

"It was horrible," said Stoops. "I hated it. Hated it as much as anybody did. Absolutely."
Some will ask that if Stoops believes the only response now would be to dismiss Mixon, and he hated seeing the video of the incident "as much as anybody," why is Mixon on the team? It's a relevant question and it's not one with an easy answer.

Lol, WTF? What new information does Bob Stoops possess now that he didn't when he made the decision outside of knowing the video would be leaked.

The outrage from everybody that has seen the video that wasn't on the OU staff or administration.

Dan Patrick reported he's hearing rumblings that Mixon may not get drafted, so reports of other incidents may have some foundation.

29. Green Bay Packers
Joe Mixon, RB, Oklahoma

This is where the mock gets crazy. The Packers used Ty Montgomery at running back last year and Eddie Lacy is in Seattle. Running back seems the obvious choice for Green Bay, and the best back on the board is Joe Mixon from Oklahoma. Of course, he is the guy who punched a female Oklahoma student during his freshman year. Nothing about me wants to pick him in the first round or any other round of this draft, but the reality is that somebody will take him. Mixon will be drafted in the second round at least, so does it make sense for the Packers to pass on him knowing somebody else will likely take him within a few picks? Let me just give you my football opinion without regard to that awful crime: Mixon is the most talented back in this draft. He is a much better receiver than Fournette, bigger than McCaffery, and a much better inside runner and blocker than Cook. My hunch is that the Packers will take Mixon with this pick.

LOL

 

[Bishop2b5]

Wouldn't be surprising to see him go undrafted and only get a shot as a free agent. RB's are undervalued in the NFL and teams can't afford the PR hit a guy like Mixon brings with him.

 

[Henges24]

He shouldn't have left early. He could have showed some maturity or even used it as an excuse by staying to earn his degree. Plus, it looks like this may haunt this entire career which will cause him to eventually need that degree anyway.

Politely disagree. There's always a team that will take a talented guy with baggage. Given this happened in 2014, some team will justify it by saying he hasn't punched out a woman since then. Learned from his mistakes, blah, blah, blah....

I agree. He will be drafted. Even if the high school incident ends up being true, someone will still draft him. As I mentioned in the Mock Draft when I drafted him to my Bears, he is the most well rounded back in the draft imo. Blocks and runs inside better than Cook, is sneaky big and durable, can run the entire route tree as a WR and is a dynamic return guy. He has massive upside for a team that can keep him out of the media and out of trouble.

Don't get me wrong, putrid human being most likely. But teams generally only weigh that against actual talent. Which is dripping off of him. He'll get drafted.

I know the Pats said they took him off their board, but I could totally see them grabbing him if he fell into late rounds. Especially if they do a lot of trading down, which they've done in the past.
