I agree. This current suspension wont last long because of double jeopardy. I think he plays for an NFL team this year.

Are you stoned? Who would pick him up? Who would risk that PR shitshow on a declining rb?

Next year at the earliest but it's highly likely he is done.

After sleeping on this Goodell has to go. Rice admitted to striking her and the initial video showed her out cold and unresponsive. Was it necessary to see the actual punch that got her in that position before you ban him indefinitely?

Well. If they are to be believed regarding not seeing the tape, then the answer is yes...and is ridiculous.
Or they're lying, did see the tape, and still only gave two games...not sure which is worse honestly.

Note what he says about fostering the crime.


And how did rice avoid jail? What's up with the cops charging janay along with ray?




And last night, they go to ray lewis, of all former players, to talk about a player and a legal issue. That was a head shaker for sure

In their defense, OJ was unavailable for comment.

Bizzarre

A day after a new video surfaced showing Ray Rice hitting his then-fiancée in the face in a hotel elevator, prompting the Baltimore Ravens to release the running back and the NFL to increase his suspension from two games to indefinite, Janay Rice defended her husband and criticized the media.

"I woke up this morning feeling like I had a horrible nightmare, feeling like I'm mourning the death of my closest friend," she wrote in an Instagram post. "But to have to accept the fact that it's reality is a nightmare itself. No one knows the pain that the media & unwanted options from the public has caused my family. To make us relive a moment in our lives that we regret everyday is a horrible thing.

"To take something away from the man I love that he has worked his ass off for all his life just to gain ratings is horrific. THIS IS OUR LIFE! What don't you all get. If your intentions were to hurt us, embarrass us, make us feel alone, take all happiness away, you've succeeded on so many levels. Just know we will continue to grow & show the world what real love is! Ravensnation we love you!"

It is hard not to feel extremely bad for her.

Not to worry. New Jersey is hard on really dangerous people.

I wonder why this story hasn't been covered over at Salon, MSNBC, the Kos, ThinkProgress, Media Matters, Slate, or Gawker?

Tweeted yesterday:



CFL Official Feed
‏@CFL STATEMENT: @canadiancommish informed CFL teams that the league will honour the @NFL's suspension of Ray Rice. He cannot play in the #CFL.
