July 24, 201412 yr Domestic Violence is one of the top causes of murder and is one of the biggest issues in this country. This sends a horrible message by the NFL.
July 25, 201412 yr I really can't believe he only got 2 games. Horrible message. Is that more surprising than her father giving her up for marriage to the man who decked her?
July 25, 201412 yr Are we just assuming the Ray Rice knocked her out cold? While the video of him dragging her by the hair may suggest it, she could have also been passed out drunk. While I've never done it by their hair, I've had to carry/drag someone who was practically lifeless before because of that. If the NFL and Police have seen the elevator video, I'd assume he didn't just deck her.
July 25, 201412 yr They give Terrelle Pryor 5 games for committing NCAA violations by accepting free tattoos and Ray Rice 2 games for allegedly knocking his fiancée unconscious? Sounds about right.

I would say the chances of a person going out cold in the matter of a few seconds after entering an elevator is slim.
July 25, 201412 yr Peter King wrote a column about this. Said it was probably only 2 because a)his wife gave a powerful testimony to Goodell on Ray's behalf b)no prior incidents c)no conviction and d)Ray has been a great ambassador for the NFL in charity work. Not that I agree with that logic..

Not that I agree with that logic.. Goodell has also seen the elevator footage, correct? Goodell is almost his own worst enemy. People were all over him for suspending the Pac Man, Big Ben, Saints players, and even Michael Vick prior to his conviction for not allowing cases to run their course. I think he was told to take a step back and let cases run their course before laying down the hammer. Again, not saying that is correct in this case.
July 25, 201412 yr Author Big Ben rape allegations were with no video in a he said / she said battle correct? He still got 6 games though. Rice had to have done something to be suspended 2 games. Hard to say what happened until we are able to see video of them in the elevator, if we ever do.
July 25, 201412 yr I would say the chances of a person going out cold in the matter of a few seconds after entering an elevator is slim. Was there video of them getting on the elevator? I only saw the video of them leaving it.
July 25, 201412 yr Was there video of them getting on the elevator? I only saw the video of them leaving it. I know I have seen something before. Maybe it was them at the casino table. I remember them getting after one another.
July 25, 201412 yr You get 4 games for a failed pee test, and only 2 for being a wife-beater? Goodell is a joke.
July 25, 201412 yr You get 4 games for a failed pee test, and only 2 for being a wife-beater? Goodell is a joke. To be far he is only a girl friend beater. They didn't get married until after he knocked her out.

If the NFL and Police have seen the elevator video, I'd assume he didn't just deck her. Several witnesses reporting seeing them scuffling prior to going into the elevator, and I think one claims to have seen him punch her. So, I think it's unlikely she just randomly passed out on the elevator trip. Peter King wrote a column about this.

Not that I agree with that logic.. Peter King probably wrote down whatever Goodell told him to. And then wrote about Starbucks and crummy beer for 2,000 words.

As a result she hits her head on the elevator wall and it knocks her out? Does that change anything?
