It's about time. The next person who should be let go is the commissioner of the NFL. He saw this tape and still only suspended this low life for 2 games. There are no criminal charges pending. His wife wouldn't press charges and stood up for him when he went to see the commissioner. I hope she gets the help she needs to get far away from him. If she doesn't, it's just a matter of time before he kills her.

John Harbaugh - his Ravens Coach is a POS too. His 'brush this under the rug its over' attitude is sickening. NOW that this tape has been released he just as much as a dirt bag as the Commissioner. I would bet the Owner saw this tape too.

however you feel right now about ray rice we should ALL hope and pray that this was a one time incident AND that it will NEVER happen again.

Don't be naive - it always happens again -

TOO MANY NFL Players Tweeted their reaction to the tape today - and it was really harsh - and for good reason. Many stated 'this is not the first time...' - her Family had to know something. A lot of people are getting pulled under from this 'incident' - it should have been delt with from the beginning.

There's something nagging @ me about this. Yes, he assaulted this woman. But she didn't want to prosecute. AND why did this woman marry this guy AFTER the assault?

The State doesn't like it, the League doesn't like it, the public doesn't like it, but.....the one person who should not like it....doesn't mind. Should we...not mind? Weird.

WE should mind, because it sends such a bad message to young women, one that is repeated over and over - that it is okay to love, to live with, to marry, to have children by, these abusive men, when in fact it is WRONG! It is an absolute mystery to me why these women make the same mistake, and, not just one time, but many times. I'm listening to my local news and the people being interviewed keep saying what a nice guy he is and he would never do this - well, the video doesn't lie and yes, he did do it. And I'm sure each of the women interviewed would jump at the chance to be with him. Such stupidity.

YEP - MONEY TALKS !!! for those girls. The reaction from the NFL Players is HARSH. He should turn in his man card because he will not be able to go anywhere without the tape flashing before their eyes.

You are naive - these type of men do not change overnight - and no one believes this is the first time he hit her either.

Why would she marry the abuser?

MONEY, LIFESTYLE

yes, cynical but more than likely accurate.

I think it would be a good idea for you to educate yourself on the details of how abuse happens and what it does to the victim. Your point of view is very antiquated and I'm afraid bordering on misogyny.

Thank you but I am educated. No, my opinion just stems from working with football players and seeing, up close and personal, the women that flock to them because of their money. Could I be wrong about her, maybe. Money is quite powerful when you get to quit your job for a glam life and house.

Totally Agree Rotti_mama - these women flock to these Athletes and tolerate unbelievable behavior just to be identified as their 'women'. The endure tremendous amounts of humiliating behavior from these men and that in turn eats away at their own self-esteem. .... I know because I know some of these women !

Still no excuse for her either.

Bad behavior on his part??? Your evidence?

No excuse for a woman to not control herself just like there is no excuse for a man, period. bad behavior is bad behavior.

It is BAD BEHAVIOR to c0ck back and hit a woman in the head with your closed fist. Even prizefighters use gloves!!!! I saw it with my own two eyes. He was acting like he was in an Ali-Frazier match...not dealing with an angry woman.

Only one of the two ended up unconscious, being dragged out of the elevator.

If you think she was guilty of something too....they should have sorted it out in court.
NOT given him a plea deal.

BTW - she was a fool to marry him, IMO, and needs some serious counseling.

Totally agree. I saw her hit him before they got on the elevator too. I do not think he was justified but neither was she. You don't just resort to violence.

She is not going anywhere. She is comfy with the lifestyle, sad to say.

This manufactured outrage over the video is foolish. This was settled in court, don't like it too bad. The legal system functioned with what they had. The NFL is just doing damage control; they already ruled. Baltimore knew about all of this. Look at Baltimore's past, if you can play, they look the other way.

The NFL got caught with their pants down. They made a decision; but this is mob mentality. Now that we can see video we get to go after him again. Why? We have laws and we don't burn people at the stake because a few people are outraged over video. The case was adjudicated already. You do not get 2 bites at the apple.

I do not care for the manner in which this was resolved; but this is trying him twice just because some people saw a video now.

Be angry with how this was handled in the 1st place.

I wonder if people felt this strongly when B's sister hit Jayz in the elevator or is that ok?

Give me a break. Ray Rice played in the NFL. If he could not take a hit, he was in the wrong game.

i absolutely agree sidsmom and icezeus. it's a shame that she felt the need to go through with marrying him after he had already assaulted her. did you see the portion of the press conference with the both of them that was held after the elevator incident was made public where he said, "I won't call myself a failure. Failure is not getting knocked down. It's not getting up." and his wife, janay said she "deeply regrets the role that she played the night of the incident." so, he's letting everyone know that he didn't fail. she's the one that failed because she didn't get up after he knocked her out. and then she sits up there and apologizes for making him knock her out. this is a clip of press conference that was held in may where he "apologizes." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJBkG_kyqxI

Oh give me a break! There's no mob mentality here. In fact multiple reporters on ESPN her saying that there is mounting evidence that both the DAs office and the league had this video all along. Now that it's been made public they are backtracking trying to cover themselves.
