I'll take the NFL's woeful mismanagement of this situation a step further. Nobody learned anything new with the TMZ release; Rice previously admitted to knocking his then fiance unconscious. I get the fact that seeing the assault can make it seem more horrific; however, yesterday's actions by the Ravens and NFL should have been the initial punishment instead of the two game ban.
A CEO caught kicking a dog on an elevator results in media coverage of the outcry and the CEO's eventual resignation. A man concusses a woman and drags her body out of an elevator and most shrug their shoulders and accept a two game ban. Everyone will be indignant now, but this is the way it should have been to begin with; whether the knockout blow was seen or not.
What the fuck is it with the Ravens and players named Ray?
