Ray Rice - Domestic Violence
What do you guys think about Ray Rice knocking out his wife in an elevator? He has been given a 2 game suspension so far - I think he should be suspended for life and thrown in JAIL.

Don't count on it. With this video evidence the DA doesn't need her testimony or consent to file charges. In fact I would be very surprised if he doesn't do jail time.

Yeah, he was let go just a bit ago now that the video is out.
If anyone in the NFL saw this video before giving the 2 game suspension, they should be fired too. |

His contact with the Ravens has been terminated. That's a good start.

Another day in the life of a U.S. sports/celebrity figure. I vote with my wallet. I do not watch this garbage nor contribute to it.
If every player in professional sports with a felony rap got fired, there would not be enough players left to have professional sports. Real stand-up bunch of guys... Not. Can them all. Go outside on an Sunday morning and enjoy your day... There is a world out there. Or at least sit and read TRF. :-) |

Most if not all have college educations and they also make pretty decent money so this would make sense. However do you have access to some comparative figures?

Wow, I just watched the video on TMZ. The fact that he knocked her out is shocking enough, but then he dragged her around like a sack of garbage after that. What a piece of sh!t human being. He should be banned from professional sports for life. And he should be going to jail, so he can get the same treatment.

In theory, the DA could decide to prosecute on their own with this new video release but I don't expect to see that happen. Sadly, he'll probably be on a new team by the end of the week. Don't forget...Baltimore also just unveiled a shinny new statue of Ray Lewis outside their stadium. Play a sport well enough and you're exempt from most rules. Edit: Or not; now suspended indefinitely from the NFL as well. |

NFL just suspended him indefinitely too. So he's out of the league for a while.

She is the victim., and she may need help. There are a number of different possibilities, but she did not deserve this.

Its a shame but money talks. I am not aware of the specifics but if it happens again he will have a heavy settlement to pay out. I hope he doesnt ever have to deal with a screaming teething baby in the middle of the night.

ostensibly his career is over, he was on the downside and he'll be out for at least a year. Even if he could come back after a year and still play effectively what team would want the stigma of being associated with him. Hope he saved his money...

I agree...considering that RBs tend to start their decline at 30 he would have at best one or two good years left. I can't imagine a team risking the PR nightmare over a year or two of production...at least I hope no team is that blinded by greed.

Seems like a nice guy. NOT!
Domestic violence is beyond my comprehension!

Well, I too ascribe to the ideal that you never hit a woman and I haven't in my lifetime, but it sure looked to me that she was the aggressor in that video.
She took a swipe at him before they got on the elevator and then she charged him in the elevator. Hitting her may not have been the right thing, but she gets no sympathy from me. I have enough sense not to pick a fight with someone who obviously can kick my butt to kingdom come.

Domestic violence goes both ways. Non-escalation should be the responsibility of both parties.

There are women who will trade a life of physical abuse for the status of a celebrity husband and the money. This wife seems to be one of them. Tragic.
