Ravens Terminate Rice's Contract

[bbgun]

Plus -- and this is probably the worst part -- Goodell interviewed Rice WITH HIS WIFE.

she probably turned on the water works and pleaded with Goodell to go light on him. gotta keep that $ rolling in

I just have a hard time believing Goodell knew a tape that horrific existed and ignored it.

but it's common knowledge that elevators have cameras in them. how could nobody from the NFL ask the casino if there was a recording of the incident? boggles the mind.

Pep he's a commissioner why are we expecting him to lead an investigation

If he saw it and ignored it, then by all means throw the book at him.

I kind of suspect he saw it, or maybe heard about how awful it really was, a couple of weeks ago when he suddenly said he'd gotten the decision wrong.

Anyone else think he hit her twice?

Looks like he got a good one in, prompting her to come over for the haymaker.

 

[Hoofbite]

Goodell makes too much money to just step down because of his conscious over the matter.

Some dude from TMZ said it was one of the hardest tapes for them to get. Wouldnt say how they got it.

I do wonder if the owners see the national attention as good or bad. I mean the Bills just sold for a billion dollars.

how the fuck do the Clippers sell for more than an NFL franchise?

Basketball is growing; baseball is dying

 

[bbgun]

we're talking about the NFL, Gomer. and basketball is a distant third to baseball.

Baseballs dying, new ball fans are being borned. This value increasing bc growth. That's why 2 billion

the future does not belong to a sport than plays in front of 10K people

I agree with MB here. Baseball although still 2nd in major sports is declining at a Rapid rate. Attendance is down all over the league as in viewership

Basketball on the other hand is on the way up in a big way

?

I'm talking about basketball vs baseball. the mavericks would be drawing the same # of fans even if they played in spacious Jerryworld

 

[marionbarberthe4th]

Lot of ppl agreeing with me

 

[ThoughtExperiment]

Maybe Balmer just vastly overpaid.

Daniel Tosh had a funny bit about hitting women. Someone should look it up and post it. I would but don't feel like it.

So.... NOW Law Enforcement is saying "Bullshit Goodell, we sent you the fucking video 5 months ago and have a voice message from one of your staffers thanking us for it and saying "you're right it is terrible" you fucking liar."


N.O.W. is calling for Goodell to resign.


News from The Associated Press

ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (AP) -- A law enforcement official says he sent a video of Ray Rice punching his then-fiancee to an NFL executive five months ago, while league executives have insisted they didn't see the violent images until this week.

The person played The Associated Press a 12-second voicemail from an NFL office number on April 9 confirming the video arrived. A female voice expresses thanks and says: "You're right. It's terrible."
