Ray Rice Cut and Suspended Indefinitely
QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Sep 9, 2014 -> 09:50 AM) How do you know the police or the NFL did not see it? If she will not press charges what relevance does the video do to the police? The police can still choose to press charges even with a uncooperative witness/victim. They chose not to, presumably after believing that she fell and hit her head in the elevator

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Sep 9, 2014 -> 08:55 AM) Yea, that's quickly getting old. Well, just another warning to never use debit cards for anyone that does. You mean any sort of plastic. Because none of it is safe until we go to chip and pin universally. And when that happens, they will figure out how to get around that too

9/8 vs Oakland A's
QUOTE (GreenSox @ Sep 9, 2014 -> 09:23 AM) I think the Shark trade was the real bad trade. They got the ace or near ace they needed with Lester, and for an okay, not great, player. With Shark, they dumped one of the top prospects in baseball. I think both are terrible. They got their ace at the expense of one of the only offensive bright spots they had, and they had to go out and get Adam Dunn in order to try and recover some of the power. The shark trade is bad for the future, the Lester trade was bad for the Now. If the A's fall out of the race, which 2 months ago seemed impossible, these will both be absolute busts of trades

Ray Rice Cut and Suspended Indefinitely
QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Sep 8, 2014 -> 02:23 PM) OK, but then isn't an indefinite suspension an overreaction the other way? They just came out with a policy that gave first time offenders a six game suspension but now he is retroactively getting more? Not to absolve Ray Rice for what he did, but it isn't his fault that this tape didn't come out until now. an indefinite suspension is such a fluid term in the NFL. this isnt done by a long shot

Ray Rice Cut and Suspended Indefinitely
QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Sep 8, 2014 -> 02:09 PM) I'm a little conflicted by this. On one hand, I agree with a policy of zero tolerance for violence against women. On the other hand, life is about second chances and unless Rice has some history that I'm not aware of, he isn't getting one. I guess one big question is: Did Rice lie about the severity of the incident to the league and/or the judicial system and did this video counter his lie? If so, then I can justify what happened today. If not, then I find it hard to justify suddenly changing his penalty just because video evidence surfaced. I dont think he could have possibly lied in order to get a lesser punishment. Everyone knew he knocked her silly in the elevator, we just didnt SEE it happen. I think what happened here was the NFL believed that this was able to be swept away and severely misjudged the reaction.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Sep 8, 2014 -> 09:37 AM) So, anyone else read that Atlanta Hawks e-mail? I'm not really sure what's so racist about it... I wonder if he/the ownership group was more worried that he would piss off white fans in Atlanta? I think he was ok until he got into the fathers and sons thing, and then complained about the hip hop and intros and such. I mean, come on, its atlanta. In the end he was brainstorming ideas for increasing revenue and the letter couldnt have had worse timing if he tried

Just think about the press conference they had when she apologized over and over. and the countless times the Baltimore organization has gone out of its way to make sure everyone knows that Rice is a great guy. Nice job Goodell. Good job, good effort
