this is a cluster, for sure......the NFL once said they had access to everything the police had...yet now say they hadn't seen that video
..but if the police had it, why on earth was counseling their only punishment?
...and whether the NFL had it or not..what did anybody THINK it would show any different than what was assumed to have happened?
to me, quite obviously counseling and a 2 game suspension was laughably weak......but now, months later, this video comes out and it's worthy of him being cut from his team and an 'indefinite' suspension?!
poorly POORLY handled then...poorly Poorly POORLY handled now
so, if this 'indefinite' suspension turns into 6 extra games, it costs Rice no more money than just being released...and then what, he's a free agent, open to being signed by any team in the league?
it NEVER should have been 2 games then...and shouldn't be out there as if he's completely banned from the league now....what he did was horrible, but other players have done horrible things and not been talked about as if they may never be allowed to play again
the 'right' answer, to me, would have been for the league to be in contact with the Ravens...and think things thru far enough to come up with something more definitive before announcing ANYthing........now it's just even more of a cluster than it was originally
