I think there is more to it than that. I give Peterson the benefit of the doubt that he was doing what he thought was best for his kid and didn't realize that he was doing that much damage. If he did it again I would throw the book at him, but I don't really see any evidence of malicious intent as opposed to making a fist and punching somebody in the face.
The Vikings got smoked yesterday. No way in hell are they going to want to rely solely on their shitty QB play for the rest of the season.
@TM;
I was switched pretty often as a child. and I know people who still switch their kids. What AP did to that kid went way beyond what a normal switching does to a person. Honestly to have those marks a week after the switching it seems like AP went full apeshit on the four year old.

The NFL needs to market more to Latins though with most of them liking the Raiders I'm sure it's pretty hard to get them motivated with how bad the Raiders currently are. Hitting your wife or hitting your kid with an object such as a shoe, cloths hanger or belt is basically an accepted practice in their culture. The NFL is going about this way wrong, we should be seeing pics of AP in a sombrero drinking a Michelada and it would all be forgiven....
my sentiments and experiences exactly. albeit my "switch" was a yard stick

Perhaps. I also find that most people greatly exaggerate the spankings that they received as a kid. It could be that what Peterson did was what he thought he remembered his parents doing but your memories from childhood probably made those spankings seem a lot worse than they actually were from an adult perspective.
It's unclear to me how much he has been involved in this kid's upbringing but I wouldn't find it too shocking to learn that this was the first time he has ever spanked anyone.

New accusations: Peterson injured another son while disciplining 4-year-old
Just good old fashioned parenting folks. Why's the man gotta get all politically correct on a brother like this?
Update on new drug policy, from Schefter/Mortensen:
Upon agreement of term sheet for new drug policy, these players will be reinstated: Broncos WR Wes Welker, Rams WR Steadman Bailey, Cowboys DB Orlando Scandrick, Giants OL Eric Herman and former Vikings DE Spencer Nealy.
WRs Josh Gordon and former Colt LaVon Brazill will have their season-long suspensions reduced to 10 games.
Gordon continues to be allowed to work out at the Browns? training facility.
The seven above names are part of the estimated 20 who will be affected by the new policy once it is approved by the NFL, which is likely to occur in the next 24 hours.

He was cleared of all charges in that incident, the child did it to himself while trying to avoid a spanking. The police cleared Peterson of any wrong doing, and no charges will come from it. It can be used against him in court when he goes to trial though.
