It was another Sunday of tuning into the NFL hoping to see the focus on football games, but knowing it was not to be as yet another player has repulsed us with his behavior off the field. This one hits home for me because Adrian Peterson plays for my team. And it appears ESPN commentator Cris Carter felt the same way, since Peterson plays for his team too. But in his comments on yesterday's pre-game show, Carter addressed a lot more than just the Vikings' football decision to deactivate Peterson for their game against the Patriots. Carter really cut to the heart of how we understand the discipline of children, and how we draw the line between true discipline and abject brutality.
