The Ray Rice story isn't close to being over.

Although the Baltimore Ravens released Rice and the NFL suspended him indefinitely following the release of the bombshell video of Rice striking his wife in an Atlantic City hotel elevator, TMZ claims it has more to the story, via Philly.com.

TMZ's Harvey Levin appeared on Fox5 Philly and said that he plans to release information that the NFL knew about and saw the Rice video (which the league has denied) but that it ignored it.

He knocked the hell out of that woman. Totally knocked her out. And yesterday fans were applauding him. He should go to prison and share a cell with Hernandez.

Is it just me or that woman slapping Rice around before he punched her. If that is true, then it looks like a case of self defense to me.

Bump!

I think El Rushbo mentioned this (NFL DID have access to elevator interior vid), on his show today.

i work in the football business though i won’t say what capacity...this story broke during the NFL combine when i was in Indianapolis for the event with coaches, GM’s, and execs from around the league...when the story broke one team exec said to a very small group i was with(exact quote) “we saw the video and its pretty bad”...

i am not going to lie and say its the video that made the rounds today but whatever video was shown to league execs in February at the combine, it was very damning...

This has been a cover up since DAY ONE!

The NFL and the teams have TOP NOTCH SECURITY. Does anyone with a brain think they didn’t see this video and then orchestrate the entire thing?

Having one of your “stars” assault his girlfriend on camera for the world to see is very bad publicity.

My question is WHY did the local prosecutor NOT charge him with Felony assault? This is where the conspiracy begins...

Exactly!

Goodell pretended to be this fair and impartial commissioner until it came to the ghetto trash running Rush out from a very minor owner. Goodell has ALWAYS sided with the thugs and then bullies teams so owners will cave.

Goodell is a despicable leftist. He blackmailed Jan Brewer into vetoing the religious freedom from fags bill. He browbeat NFL teams to sign Michael Sam to their practice team. After he resigns, he should take a job working for Valerie Jarrett or at GLAAD.

This has overtones of the Sandusky affair. Keep it all quiet because there is big money involved. The NFL probably paid off Rices Fiancee to keep her mouth shut.

Well it’s not like new evidence came to light.

All that happened in the last 24 hrs was that TMZ released the full video to the public.

Suddenly the NFL suspends Ray Rice indefinitely.

So either -

(A) the NFL never saw the video initially, or

(B) the NFL did see it, but didn’t consider the episode a big deal and was prepared to bury it - until it became public.

And since we’re always hearing what a powerful team of investigators the NFL has at its disposal, that leaves only option (B).

Goddell has a lot of ‘splaining to do.

“Is it just me or that woman slapping Rice around before he punched her. If that is true, then it looks like a case of self defense to me.”

not only that, but since we all saw the earlier video of him dragging her unconscious out of the elevator, how the heck did everyone figure she got knocked out? is this another typical retarded reaction by the pc media? the video showed what we knew happened?
so, i’m in your camp with the question, is just me?

Goodell got caught lying about knowledge of the video and only after getting caught he did the indefinite suspension number.
He was going to let Rice skate until he got called out. The NFLPA doesn't allow for an indefinite suspension because Goodell already gave a 2 game suspension. He will try to use the NFLPA to justify for reinstatement but it won't fly with these battered women's groups.

Harbaugh was asked tonight (Mon. night football) why this video had just come to light now and he responded that he had no idea why.

He had to knock her out cold to defend himself? I don’t think so.
