Personally I don't see what's plausible about seeing a video of 2 people walking into an elevator followed by 1 dragging the other out by their arm face down and unconscious...followed by an admission that he hit her. I don't have to see the sun come up to know it did.

But that said, I also don't think this should be a career ender for players, either. Be hard nosed, yes....but if you or I were to do what Rice did (we wouldn't of course) we'd get fired, but we wouldn't be banned from ever doing the same kind of work we'd trained all our lives to do.

We all know...and now Goodell agrees...that 2 games was stupid weak. What would be happening now if Rice had been given 30 days jail time and suspended 8 games by the NFL when this video came out? We'll never know...just sayin'

Ever notice that extra fries and exercise sound a lot alike?
