Ray Rice super thread.

[fredmccallyRTR]

It's getting to the point where the NFL might as well have a team like the 'Fargo Felons' just to send their criminals to.

That's something else I think this does, the Ravens almost have to get rid of him now.

But surely the Ravens had seen the tape. Doesn't this set them up for a lawsuit by Rice ? "Well now that everybody knows, we're going to have to cut you Ray".

 

[Cave_Johnson]

I don't believe the Ravens or the NFL will do anything with this new tape coming out.

I hope I'm wrong. I said from the outset he deserved at least 8 games and 2 was a slap on the wrist.

Can we be honest? Did we really need to see the tape to know what happened in the elevator? Didn't we already assume this is what happened?

I don't believe Roger Goodell can just add more weeks to the punishment - as much as I'd like to see it. Don't count on the Ravens FO to do anything as "Punchy" is their star RB.

Should Ray Rice be suspended more than just 2 games? Yes, but we already knew that.

Will he? No.

Well, these was some talk about her hitting him first. This just clears that up and shows him decking her for no discernible reason.

What was the context?

Of course. Women were never abused before they became popular. :rollseyes:

Standing ovation for this turd?

This incident coupled with the slap on the wrist suspension will not help with the NFL's strategy of trying to branch out towards the female demographic.

What was the context?

he said in Australia they don't show violence of women in any context on their tv or news. they don't have a problem. we in the usa do

He said that? What an idiot!

I didn't assume anything. I honestly thought she may have gone off and started whaling on him. kicking and punching, and he gave her a smack to make it stop. That happens. It's not excusable, especially in his case, given the disparity in strength between the 2, but it sure as hell isn't this. This is "go to jail" type shit.

Standing ovation for this turd?

Yup.

"Old school", who is surprisingly absent on this thread, said that "Well, we don't want to punish him to severely for one mistake" (emphasis his).

He then blathered on about this being the age where women and men have equal rights so it's no less wrong to hit a woman than a man.

 

[fredmccallyRTR]

I would hope the Ravens organization was smart enough that if they had seen this video that they didn't make Rice or the players union aware of it. - Good ol' CYA based upon ignorance.

Sorry, that's all I seem to be thinking about when I saw this.

ESPN just reported at least one person inside the organization had seen the video....no elaboration on who it was.

It is. So you're saying if he did this to a man you wouldn't give a crap about this? Now being that domestic violence (especially against women) is a problem in this country, this type violence shouldn't be condoned, no matter who's involved.

Violence shouldn't be condoned, but a 220 pound man knocking the shit out of a 110 pound woman results in a lot more severe injury than vice-versa. So, pretending it's all the same in REALITY and CONSEQUENCES is bullshit.

 

[Cloud]

It's fake!!! <sarcasm>

This is such a joke that he has a 2 game suspension.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

This is such a joke that he only got a 2 game suspension

FIFY.
