Said the owner of the Ravens Steve Bisciotti during the unveiling of a statue of Ray Lewis just two years removed from the NFL. :rolleyes:
I have followed the career of Ray Rice since his days at Rutgers where he would gash the WVU and PITTs defenses and then onto the NFL where he often gave the Steelers Defense trouble. During that span we were bombarded by stories of Ray Lewis mentoring Rice and becoming a fatherly figure to him. Lewis would be seen at games life-coaching Rice from the sidelines. Lewis was a big factor in Rice's drafting by Baltimore.After Lewis's murder charges, plea bargain and settlements, can we be surprised by Rice's actions?
IMO this is huge egg on the face of the NFL, Ravens org and Ray Lewis. Even though the NFL denies any knowledge of the released video, I believe the Ravens ownership and possibly the NFL had to have seen it prior to being released and were hoping one of its star players would only sit for two games.
Sickening really. Really shameful of the NFL if true.

It is sickening. After he knocked her out the way he dragged and dropped her unconscious body around was absolutely appalling.
Then she married him. Unbelievable.
-
The Ravens just cut him and the NFL suspended him "indefinitely". Kiss your millionaire career goodbye dirtbag.
-
I saw the video this morning and posted on social media that I hoped they banished him. Looks like there's a step in that direction but I'm wondering what the players union will say.

His wife will suddenly realise she is a victim and take what cash he has on hand in the divorce and all rights to the subsequent book and movie deals.

There's already a statue of the greatest leader in the history of football.

Now I bet she will divorce him.

Now I bet she will divorce him.
Because she was just in it this long for the money, or because this is a wakeup call? I don't think its time to be blaming the victim here, if you were leaning towards the former.

I'm not blaming the victim at all. The vast majority of domestic violence situations go unreported and even after an arrest the battered spouse often attempts to drop charges. When the abuser is the bread winner, it makes leaving the situation much more difficult. Now that the income is in doubt she may follow through particularly if the high profile case can attract some pro bono attorneys. It isn't a stab at her or any woman, it is simple proven psychology/sociology.
-
I finally got a chance to look at the video, and it is pretty sad.
That said, I'll bet he will hire some dirtball attorney to make her look like the aggressor. She clearly swung at him before they entered the elevator and he may have felt threatened!

Cue Gloria Allred.
-
What surprises me the most is that the inside the elevator video was released.
Unfortunately, this kind of behavior in/around the NFL surprises me none.
You'd imagine there was plenty of blackmail, but maybe, just maybe there was a decent soul who decided they were releasing this regardless. If the NFL couldn't buy them off...I'd like to meet that person. Maybe they kept it hush and stole a copy? Wonder if we'll find that part out.

I like the way the security gut left to door open so the camera can keep rolling--ray rice deserves to go to prison for that.

maybe so del but in no way that half hearted swing would have hurt him---and she did not deserve what he did to her.
-
I hope she does divorce him and sue him for everything he has....and I hope she gets a female judge..that puts in more favor for her..at least I would think so....no man should hit a woman--unless she's armed and trying to kill him.

Wow, I didn't realize that. I hope I can be more observant in the future. /sarcasm
Look, I know that and you know that but an attorney may attempt to spin it to save his career.

Yeah, Rice will come back after dv classes and therapy. .. I doubt he'll go to prison. He'll settle in Oakland or Cincinnati and make an epic turnaround ala Mike Vick.

Excellent.
By the way, I once bought this for a friend. It is an excellent gift for us admirers of The Dear Leader.

IIRC she is defending him.

That may change and it isn't unusual for the abused to change their mind about prosecution.
