How quickly the despicable media turned the theme of black male violence into an uncaring white guy scenario which blames the depravity of NFL thugs on Roger Goodell. Just consider the fact that Ray Rice punched his female partner so hard that her head was driven THREE FEET backward and into the wall of a casino elevator. Take a second look at this young lady being dragged out of the elevator, UNCONSCIOUS, while her feet are left across the track of doors that could quickly close. Janay Palmer Rice went back her abusive husband. But the violence of Black males, especially of black football players, has been dropped by a media spin machine that protects blacks and blames whites, especially white males, nearly every time.
Now comes the push to demand the resignation of Goodell, the white guy, in order to replace him with Condoleeza Rice, a black female. The politically correct quotient managers can get a two for one up-tick on their own sick lever of remaking American society. Let’s take a look at the Adrian Peterson lashing of his own child. Or what about the 1999 conviction of the “Carolina Panthers’ Rae Carruth for conspiring to kill his then-pregnant girlfriend?” (1) Other jaw dropping examples of violent, black football players and their treatment of women and children are out there, but somehow not in the MSM. These examples certainly never received the media play that is being heaped on the old meanie Roger Goodell.
Let’s take a look at underlying causes of the NFL’s hypocritical stance. Money talks, right? Well, how about “cheerleaders from nearly a half-dozen NFL teams (who) filed lawsuits alleging they were paid dismal wages, harshly examined through physical “JIGGLE TESTS’ and demeaned in public appearances...

Damned if he did, damned if he didn’t. If Goodell had ordered rice be punished early on, the cries of ‘racism’ would’ve been deafening especially following the protests in Ferguson. It’s a lose/lose situation for Goodell, no matter what.
Actually, that's not exactly what the video shows.
She and he are standing at the front right of the elevator. She hits him. He backs all the way across the elevator to the left side. She charges him, he slaps/punches/cuffs her, apparently on the right side of her head, since she doesn't fly back across the elevator. Instead, she flies to her left, and hits her head on the steel rail on the way down.
I don't know why it's so hard for people to accurately describe what the video shows.
A Black guy that makes several million dollars per year can do just as he pleases. Obama has demonstrated that
One thing that I don’t understand is that why does an association full of blacks have a white christian male as its president? And most coaches are whites. Also most quarterbacks are whites. I see a pattern here. All important positions are whites, but grunt mule work is black.
I blame THE PLAYERS INVOLVED!
THEY get paid massive amounts of money for a college sport!
THEY get all up and attitude, and it is THEY who ‘lay hands’ on those afflicted, NOT Roger Goddell.
By the way, is Roger Goddell, the new “it’s bush Fault” guy, because he’s white?
Wonder how many FReepers are glued to their TV sets this very moment, eating it all up with a spoon?
He spat in her face twice.
True, it is shocking, but that doesn't mean surprising. Women tied to NFL players enjoy what the player's income brings to the table. I wonder if long-term suspension or banishment means fewer beatings will get reported because the women might prefer the occasional beating to losing the perks of being with a wealthy NFL player.
No sense in going after the actual thugs. They don’t care.
Of course, the NFL doesn’t really care either, but they might be shamed into at least pretending to care.
In many situations, football stars get away with too much stuff starting in HS. The best way to change the climate is for colleges and the NFL to not draft football players with criminal issues.
He needs to go!
It wasn't till the light of day shone upon the Brings to mind Rudy Giuliani's "broken window" theory. Fix the broken window in the neighborhood early so as not to encourage more broken windows.
Goodell decided to avoid a "racism" charge and the hassle of letting those try to defend spousal abuse as part of "black culture".
Did Goodell mandate some sort of non-public fine/therapy/charity work/tighter-jock-strap-during-practice when the video first became known to them? It would have provided cover when it came out if Ray Rice had acceded to some sort of internal sanction.
Don't forget Kickers, Punters & Tight Ends! Oh, and Centers!
There MUST be a subliminal message of White DOMINATION there, somewhere!
/S
Knoteye. I am doing my usual Sunday afternoon home-office shift, with the Rays beating the White Sox in the background. (OK, I'm saying that by faith, since the Sox just scored four runs in the second inning)
Didn’t see that. Will take another look.
When? I studied the video over and over and never saw spitting. Where did you get that shi!?
I don’t think anyone is saying that at all. I sure haven’t seen it ... anywhere and I’ve read a lot about it. It’s a fault of BOTH these thugs AND Goodell.
