He matters, and the other hyper-aggressive, anger management drop-outs who get their kicks abusing women and children matter, because the NFL is perfectly happy to look the other way over these crimes if continued play on the field boosts the profit margins.

Just as classrooms full of slaughtered children matter less to Joe the Plumber than his precious gun rights, so hospitals full of abused wives, girlfriends, and children matter less to team owners than the bottom line.
