Warfish Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 So a vicious left hook, thrown with clearly bad intentions, that caused her head to slam against the wall of the elevator, causing her body to go limp and collapse to the floor was not worse than what you pictured? Because what you pictured was a video game. Ok, I'm still at a loss as to why I, a fan of a football product, should give MORE of a sh*t about said punch than: 1. The victim herself 2. The Criminal Justice System You realize, of course, that almost everyone here is OUTRAGED and demanding swift and rightious vengeance, except for the actual person he decked (who married him, her choice) and the Courts (who did not press this the way fans are). Kindly explain why I'm supposed to get all wargarbly about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vin Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 I'm sorry you aren't a good communicator and are too dense to realize it—so you are blaming everyone else for "reading into things you said", rather than thinking to yourself, "wow, everyone is reacting the same way to me, maybe I might have misrepresented myself". Just give it a rest, will you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bitonti Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Kindly explain why I'm supposed to get all wargarbly about? it's one thing to know Ray Rice punched out his lady. It's another to see it. This is all about the imagery. Ideally, none of us should be any more outraged now then we were at the time it happened. But we don't live in that world.

Bugg Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Ravens bailed out Goodell. Because if he issued the 2 game ban after having seen that tape the owners would be firing him.

The whole thing is a cluster ****. Regardless, a quick shift like this on a issue like DV was bound to be messy anyways. In the end, within a half a year, the league has established that guys who beat their spouses can go do something else for a living. Certainly not the ideal process, but the end result is progress.

As in, "I think it's ridiculous that you are trying to chastise people for being "outraged" by domestic violence, but you don't for one second question the level of "outrage" we see here over dropped passes, wildcat plays and superbowl predictions."

This video was a flaming bag of nuclear dog poop left on the doorstep of the NFL office. Rice getting cut stops the story aboiut when or if Goodell saw the video before the 2 game ban-for now.

Extremely lucky. The thing about Vick is dog fighting never had a spotlight shone on it prior to him. DV is a lot different, tons of national awareness campaigns that do a very good job.
