What he did to that girl is a shame. But fuck him for ruining the beginning of the NFL season. Every time I look at a sports channel they are talking about this asshole. And of course the Ravens are playing tonight. If I didn’t have to work tomorrow I would make up some kinda drinking game. Fuck you Ray. ---

Yeah, _that’s_ why he’s going to hell in a handbasket: ruining the start of the NFL season. :rolleyes: ---

The guy’s done nothing that can’t be fixed by a maudlin, public religious conversion. A few well-placed _Praise Jesus!_'s, and all those people who think Gandhi went to hell will be blubbering uncontrollably. ---

He knocked the woman out and dragged her down a corridor like a piece of meat. What he did was a shame? A fucking shame? :mad: ---

> [@Little\_Pig](#): > > Maybe he finally got tired of her physically abusing him. (Watch the video again). You mean the part where, after he slaps her, she moves towards him and then he knocks her out? > [@](#): > > [It’s worse than most imagined.](http://www.theroot.com/articles/culture/2014/09/ray_rice_domestic_violence_video_stop_coming_to_his_defense.html) Rice appears to slap her, and when she attempts to defend herself, he punches her in the face. As she falls, she hits her head on the elevator railing and lies motionless on the floor. As disturbing as the slap and punch, Rice callously ignores her limp body, seemingly unbothered until the elevator door opens. He drags Palmer’s body partially off the elevator and kicks her to wake her up. Eventually other people approach to find out what’s going on, and Palmer begins to regain consciousness. ---

Mleh to the OP. He’ll be on an NFL roster before the end of this season. ---

He’s suspended indefinitely. Nobody is going to sign him until the suspension is lifted because you don’t get a roster exemption for suspended players. ---

Why should he be punished? He is, after all, the [bigger victim here](http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/09/11/hannity-guest-rices-wife-knocked-herself-out-on-elevator-railing-so-hes-the-bigger-victim/), what with taking the blame for his wife knocking herself out on accident and all. ---
