I would like to thank bob and carl for chiming in and and showing the difference between a Packer fan and a Packer troll. Make sure you take the time to apologize to the decent Packer fans that are upset about being associated with you.

I could be wrong about the time of the incident, but even if you are innocent, as AP was, remember what Tony Dungy says…”nothing good ever happens after midnight”

I’m surprised the dropped charges didn’t come with a written apology and a check to AP’s favorite charity.

Adrian Peterson a troublemaker? Not buying it Houston PD. Get real.

Keep racking up fantasy points, AP. Your owners love you.

Good.

As the article mentions… How exactly can someone be charged ONLY with resisting arrest? Wouldn’t you needed to have first committed a crime for which to resist being arrested?

NFL players may get bad wrap for being un-intelligent, but the traditional police officer in America still wears the crown on that front.

I wonder how much in charitable donations or “volunteer” time with charity groups were offered for the charges to be dropped.

Informal community service is almost the same as sentencing.

We all saw the drunken violence on the video.

There was no video. I think this is what some of the commenters were talking about when referring to “Packer fan trolls.”

AD does all sorts of charity work and is very generous with not only his donations but his time. I’m sure any volunteer work that you see him doing has nothing to do with this and is only being done because that’s the type of person he seems to be.

gbpacker you are generalizing all viking fans in your comment I dont say that about packer fans, I have found some packer fans that are arrogant and some that are in good sport I am sure you will find that in all teams, not to pick out any certain teams.

I don’t care who your favorite team is, the NFL needs more players like Peterson. Gives it his all on the field, off the field and has as much class as anyone in the league. Wish he played for my team, lol.

Chris Ivory > A.P.
Way less ‘miles’ on him and a rare combo of power and speed, maybe the best in the NFL!!

In exchange for dropping the charges, the vikings will be giving the officers who tackled Peterson a tryout.

Hey Carl, try finding the right article to comment on.

Thought so. Had All Day really resisted arrest there would be cops in the hospital and civil lawsuits from beat up cops. Nothing against cops here. And I’m a Cards fan who watched AP score 3 TDs on us!

Counter sue. Teach that police department that they can’t just say or do whatever they want and that they too can be held accountable.

Unless you have the full story, hold off on your sarcastic comments. Every patron and employee at the incident said Peterson didn’t do anything, and the other guy was in the wrong. EVEN THE GUY’S BEST FRIEND DEFENDED ADRIAN.

I don’t give most celebrities/athletes the benefit of the doubt in things like this, but everything we’ve heard about this point to AP doing the right thing. Hence the dropping of the charges… and that’s without a payout from AP.

Exactly how everyone but Packer trolls thought that this one would end.
———————————–

Only thing I like less than the vikes is abuse of authority. Even thru cheese glasses, the Houston PD looked dirty from jump on this one. Sounds like a classic case of a power-tripping off duty cop playing bouncer and trying to show adrian how tough he is. what a tool.

Now how about Peterson charge them with assault and battery for 3 policemen tackling him for no reason?

Good for AP. I always thought the story of his arrest didn’t sound right or make sense. He’s one of the leagues good guys. Still love hearing how it took an entire precinct of cops to tackle him even though he still had a messed up knee at the time. BEAST MODE!

Sorry but “BEAST MODE” is Marshawn Lynch. Adrain Petesons nickname is “ALL DAY” which really isn’t as fun.

Good. Seems like a good person that doesnt deserve to have something like this on his record

Between this and the knee, he didnt make it easy for keeper fantasy leagues haha. Glad i took the risk though
