"I woke up this morning feeling like I had a horrible nightmare, feeling like I'm mourning the death of my closest friend. But to have to accept the fact that it's reality is a nightmare in itself. No one knows the pain that the media & unwanted options from the public has caused my family. To make us relive a moment in our lives that we regret every day is a horrible thing. To take something away from the man I love that he has worked his ass of for all his life just to gain ratings is horrific. THIS IS OUR LIFE! What don't you all get. If your intentions were to hurt us, embarrass us, make us feel alone, take all happiness away, you've succeeded on so many levels. Just know we will continue to grow & show the world what real love is! Ravensnation we love you!"

Going a step further, it seems...

All contract offers require League approval before they can be made official. Per Aaron Wilson, the League has notified all 32 teams that it will not approve any contract offer made to Ray Rice.

Charlie Casserly believes Rice will be allowed back into the NFL at some point. I'm not so sure. Truly sounds like the League never even wants to hear his name mentioned again.

Add in that the NFLPA doesn't sound like they're going to offer any resistance. Can't really say I blame them. Fair or not, would you want to be seen as defending the guy in that video?

my opinion on Rice has been stated througbout this thread. There is absolutely no excuse for his actions. Drunk or not, that thought should never even enter your mind, ESPECIALLY UNPROVOKED, if you are the "good guy" everyone has claimed.

But, I do take issue with the handling of all this... if this would've been the reaction when the inital assualt took place and he was arrested, then good. It was deserved. But, i kind of feel like the NFL is reacting not only to the graphic nature of the video, but also because they're incredibly embarrassed that the video came out at all. I feel like they expected the video to buried and the firestorm would die down and everyone would accept the punishment dealt out. Then, unexpectedly, it leaked out and now they are scrambling to "protect the shield" like they thought they had with the inital punishment as long as the video never came out.

It's troubling because to me, they're not punishing Rice for what he did to Janay, they're punishing Rice for what he did to the league's image and for embarrassing Goodell for his initial handling of the situation.

Maybe it was the first time and she is willing to give him a second chance if he gets help.

Unless there's proof that he is threatening to kill her (which seems like it would be easy giving the Hardy situation) then I think it's best to leave them alone.

 

People have forgiven others when they killed their loved ones. It was what Jesus taught. I couldn't do that personally, but if she wants to forgive him, let her be.

I don't see the issue here. It's her private life. Let her be. Ray should not have knocked her out cold but she kept hitting and even spat on him right before that hook

Both parties were engaged in some form of physical aggression. Ray should control his temper but I am not going to judge or condemn him.
