Racist move...
It is shocking, he is dragging around his unconscious fiance, like a sack of potatoes.
Yeah, He will send Ray Lewis over to council the young aspiring rapper.
Too bad for him that she is black. If she were white, he could claim it is just a knockout game; no foul./s
That ship has sailed. No matter which side of the story you are on, Goodell has demonstrated that he follows the pattern of a certain sitting US president in allowing events to overwhelm him until he eventually issues some inconsequential statement or ineffectual dictate after the time for action is long past.
Like his political counterpart, Goodell luxuriates in anodyne causes largely removed from his actual duties: breast cancer, head injuries, kids’ exercise, etc.
Both are (or were) lawyers and both choose to substitute their own whim for the written law with the usual claim that what they are doing is ‘too important’ to be subject to statute.
Goodell needs to be axed to leave next. He tried to sweep this under the carpet.
indefinite suspension by NFL
I saw two dudes in church yesterday wearing NFL jerseys. One was Sean Taylor (Redskins) and one was Ray Lewis (Baltimore).
So they are going to punish the wife - and she swung first
I am wondering why the hell the young lady married him after suffering that! Seriously, doesn’t anyone have any sense about them any more?
I bet none of the ESPN talk show participants are going to attack this ruling.
UPDATE: Ray Rice Suspended Indefinitely by the NFL. ..
GOOD
So, Pete Rose banned from Baseball for gambling on his team.
Should Rice be banned from NFL for punching a woman - and on tape no less?
Hmmm.
If he had just taken her back to the hotel room before he smacked her around he would still be playing.
The NFL did not want to suspend him. Not for 2 games, not at all. It was the video that forced their hand. They don’t care that he beats her up, just that he should not do it on camera.
I guess he better take up basketball.......................
If his wife forgave him, why not the NFL?
Rice should have just explained that he “lost it” when she told him in the elevator that she didn’t see anything wrong with the Redskins name and logo.
I want him in prison!! Where is the DA on this overwhelming video evidence of aggrevated assault. Why does he get off prosecution? She does NOT have to testify— Just show the video!! We put Michael Vick in prison for letting his dog fight? Are you kidding me?
How far back are they going to retro activate this zero tolerance policy? Are they going to kick Warren Moon out of the Hall of Fame?
