For its part, the NFL -- which in other player discipline cases has been able to obtain information that's been sealed by court order -- took an uncharacteristically passive approach when it came to gathering evidence, opening itself up to widespread criticism, allegations of inconsistent approaches to player discipline and questions about whether Goodell gave Rice -- the corporate face of the Baltimore franchise -- a light punishment as a favor to his good friend Bisciotti. Four sources said Ravens executives, including Bisciotti, Cass and Newsome, urged Goodell and other league executives to give Rice no more than a two-game suspension, and that's what Goodell did on July 24.
But Ray is a good guy, it was a mistake...
Bunch of BS colluding with the Ravens, they have to have their hero.
Rice can now make hay with the NFL's and Raven's desire to keep such a great guy playing.
The NFL again proves they cannot be trusted. Concussions, old vets without knees, now this.
Beautiful. They did their best to downplay the whole thing, ultimately at the expense of a woman beater.
And there are no good guys left, hilarious.
