"run of the mill" domestic violence is awful enough, but he is on video dragging an unconscious woman through a hotel. He deserved a lot more than two games.
reinstate a serial dog murderer and racketeer, allowing wife beaters to play almost a full season, but man you will crack down on that adderall if its the last thing you do!!!!!!

Imagine what the footage from inside the elevator looks like.
RE: It would be awkward for the PA to come out complaining
is clueless. But maybe he's not heard domestic violence is also an issue. Or unless he thinks guys juiced(on Adderall) only beat their (in) significant doso because of the juicing.
are collectively bargained for and in the case of most of them require a second or subsequent offense. Personal conduct is more subjective, and I'm sure the fact that this ended up as a misdemeanor helped him out. But it still looks awful.
being against the CBA rules and thus a 4 game suspension. But its also irrelevant in a way. By not having more heinous crimes as part of the CBA, or flat out trumping the CBA's terms is absolutely awful.
I don't think there's anything 'kinda' about it. So on the NFL scorecard, you're OK with mowing down someone when you're plastered, you're 2 games out if you knock your wife unconscious, and 4 games if you take drugs or PEDs. Run an interstate gambling ring that specializes in the torture of animals and you get a lofty one year ban.
Too bad nobody commits plain ole robberies over there, I'd be curious to see what one of these guys would get for knocking over a 7-11. Who knows, maybe the Bengals will solve that one for me before too long.
This "first brush with the policy" thing is bullshit.
is that Rice was really good at bullshitting everyone. I could be wrong, but it's hard for me to imagine that one becomes okay with punching a woman out all at once.
What is Jay Mohr referring to? Was a player suspended for speech recently?
He's talking about Anthony
, from the opie and Anthony show, being fired for remarks he made on twitter after a confrontation with a black woman he had.
So being homophobic is worse than beating a woman these days
I think the charge was that he was a racist. But the day that a unionized NFL player and a non-unionized radio personality work under identical standards of conduct is the day that comparison holds any weight.
especially when he is still collecting a game check for one of them?
Another player, I forget who, just got suspended 4 games for a banned substance. Technically it is a banned substance, but it was prescribed by his doctor because he and his wife are having trouble conceiving. So, that is 4 games, but beating and then dragging your wife is two? And Harbaugh says everything is OK because he has been good since then. OK. F the Ravens and F Goddell.
it's not even really a wait and see until the courts have their say type thing. Rice has never disputed the facts of the event.
And again, hitting a woman is never OK, but this isn't like some thing where the cops were called to a house and it turns out he had pushed her against a wall or something. The word in the official report I believe is "uppercut."
But I'm guessing all the damage control Rice did in the aftermath helped a lot.

Fixed.
It's hard to complain about drug suspensions (be it for PED or pot) when the players themselves agreed to the terms in CBA.
Exactly! Once again the league gets it wrong!
We now live in a world where speaking your mind has a stiffer penalty then punching your wife in the face.
This is only a guess on my part, but I think there's a chance he's referring to Chris Kluwe?

But Kluwe was just old-fashioned cut and unable to catch on elsewhere. And I don't listen to Mohr, but is he likely to be sympathetic to Kluwe?

Or Donald Sterling.
Next time, the ban hammer drops.

Yup, Kluwe was overpaid and a mediocre punter. He was cut for a better, cheaper alternative.
I have no idea if that's what he's alluding to, but that was my first guess. I know little to nothing about Mohr.

Give me a break...
The fact that Goodell isn't being blasted for this publicly is crazy (I could be wrong on that, but I haven't heard much yet).
No?
*crickets*.

Selling your own shit and getting free tats....5 games.

makes my stomach turn when I agree with him.
His eyes opened up wide and he said "well, I am not going to play him at all then...".
