I'm glad Rice got released, it's the right call. But in all fairness, Flacco should probably get released too for theft over $100M

I just hope we don't get a wave of pundits all claiming that the Ravens "did the right thing". They had the chance to do the right thing during the offseason when the original video came out (as did the NFL) and chose not to, even though they at least knew of the existence and the details of this video. To suddenly…

Ray McDonald is going to get suspended for about 500 games now...

Unfortunately for Rice, he couldn't use the greatest lesson from Ray Lewis: make your friends take the fall.

"We should be concerned about a Japanese attack." - Roger Goodell, December 8, 1941

Still waiting for the NFL Releases Roger Goodell story . . .

Baltimore has a serious Rays problem.

It's in the CBA too.

Let's recap this, shall we?

If you're conflicted about actually having a moment of good will towards the Ravens, don't worry - their most beloved player in team history did still kill two people.

I guess we'll never know his shower schedule.

More like six months.

So when is Roger Goodell getting released?

The Baltimore Ravens, who are still pretending they hadn't seen video of Ray Rice slugging his fiancée until this morning, just announced that they have cut Rice.

What's the line on how long it takes Jerry Jones to get him on the phone? 3 minutes?

Cue the apology that includes "for being a distraction."

The security video camera, however, should be proud of its achievements.

If it was some random guy, it wouldn't be quite the same: Janay is his fiance, and so feels quite a bit of social and financial pressure to remain with Rice despite the presumably-common beatings. Some 120lb guy that got provoked and then knocked out by Rice would get a bit less sympathy, though it'd still look…

The handrail in the elevator has also expressed regret for its involvement.
