Go back to watching your heros Ray Lewis and Aaron Hernandez ...

That's kinda funny. I'd never heard of Rice before this thing blew up, and all I know of Hernandez is that I think he was the dog fighter guy. I don't know of any Ray Lewis at all.

Not a big sports fan.

From the video he obviously connected with her pretty good. But it doesn't look to me like a punch. More like a slap to cause the motion shown. But I'm certainly no expert on the subject.

BTW, I've also read repeatedly that he dragged her out of the elevator by her hair, which is flatly untrue.

Like I said, I don't approve of what he did. But the template this story is being fit into is one of "domestic violence," and we all know that always consists of evil sadistic men beating innocent and unresisting women.

The fact of the matter is that the issue is much more complex than that, in many if not most cases. But nobody wants to challenge the dominant template.

You didn’t need to post that.
