An ESPN host has been taken to task by one of his own colleagues for comments he made during a discussion of Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice's two-game suspension for allegedly knocking out his fiancee.
The punishment has been criticized as too lenient for such an act, but Stephen A. Smith made an ill-advised attempt to come at the issue from both sides during a First Take segment Friday.
Ray Rice was captured on camera knocking his then-fiancee (now wife) unconscious at an Atlantic City casino and dragging her limp body from the elevator.

Sorry, can’t help.
I live out in the country, and fortunate enough to be in line of sight of a microwave tower, so I get all the internet I can possibly use for $50.
I just had to attend a workshop at work on “micro aggression” . Basically, white Christian men are evil, rude, racist, woman haters......because.
Yea. Turn it off and toss in the trash.
many women admit in surveys they goad men on when verbally arguing. they admit they also start physical fights by throwing the first punch or shove.
seen it posted here in thge past.
Obviously women should be able to say anything they want with no consequences and
Clearly, purposely pushing people’s buttons and saying extremely inflammatory, hateful, or hurtful things to them should have no consequences (if you are a woman).
Women need a good beating from time to time. Keeps them in line and lets them know where their place is - in the kitchen. -men of freerepublic
A man trying to argue with a woman is like a woman trying to arm-wrestle a man.
I was on a jury some years ago, an alleged domestic violence trial. One of the questions we were asked during voir dire was whether we believed that a woman could instigate the domestic violence.
I don’t recall what I answered, but in the end, we acquitted the guy of the charges based on the fact that it was clear that she HAD instigated. That, and the prosecution’s main witness had a clear bias.
The point is, Stephen A. Smith, who also went off on ESPN this week in Tony Dungy’s defense, mistook truth for the political correct world that is the lame stream these days.
