TxHoops Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 He really needs to get a grip on things, and fast. First, Jimmy Graham gets fined $30k for dunking over a goalpost right after Manziel gets fined $12k for flipping the bird on national tv. Now, kicker Matt Prater gets a 4 game suspension for drinking beer in his home over the summer (after a DWI he was prohibited, but had completed his criminal probation), after Ray Rice received a 2 game suspension for beating his fiancé unconscious. I know, I know, difference in salary on the first two and collective bargaining on the second two. But does anyone else have a real problem with the message this sends??

SKINS Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 He is just stuck between a rock and a hard place. He has no control over all the drug suspensions. And its hard to punish an "innocent" man. Any more than that and Rice probably appeals and wins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhatMack19 Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 The NFL claims they never saw this video until TMZ released it today. I think Goodell has to add to Rice's 2 game suspension after seeing this @TMZ: Ray Rice -- ELEVATOR KNOCKOUT ...

Baba Ganoush Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 If it comes out that the NFL had seen this video, how could they not, Goodell is done. I doubt TMZ outbid the NFL for this video. They did their own "investigation", this video has to be available TxHoops 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt TMZ outbid the NFL for this video. They did their own "investigation", this video has to be available This. I find it nearly possible to believe the NFL did not have this video. A multi-billion dollar business with all the resources in the world couldn't get their hands on the video but tmz could?!! Goodell is either lying (almost a cerainty) or is GROSSLY incompetent. Either way, he has to go. As you could tell when I started this thread, I was already not a fan but this seals the deal. On a side note, good for Baltimore to send him packing. But someone will pick him up...probably over the offseason. I pray it's not Jerrah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TXHORN_ET Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 Reply not about goodell, but why on earth would that woman marry ray rice after the physical abuse? $$$$$? Mr. Buddy Garrity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TxHoops Posted September 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 ^ That is a great question. We were talking about that yesterday after seeing the new video. I don't know if it's money or not. Some women stay in those situations when the guy can't rub two nickels together. Self esteem issues I guess. Sad.

Peppermint Patty Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 It's easy to kick a guy off the team. Need to develop him into a man. Or so I've heard. I really think the NFL thought this portion of the video would not be seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baddog Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 Reply not about goodell, but why on earth would that woman marry ray rice after the physical abuse? $$$$$? Also she can't testify against him if they're married. She is apologizing for her part. I'm sorry, but women who stay in abusive relationships get what they ask for, otherwise leave. I hear he has been suspended indefinitely by the NFL (Goodell) so maybe he won't get picked up.http://espn.go.com/nfl/ Mr. Buddy Garrity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
