McCoy's comment on Twitter was: It's bullshit man. He hasn't said much else but the Eagles front office said that the service was bad but that they wish he had handled the situation better.

Being an Eagles fan and resident of Philadelphia, I've known he's an asshole for a long time. It's pretty common knowledge that most of us just try to ignore from September through January.

And Goodell seeing the tape and giving Rice a slap on the wrist, knowing that there was a strong likelihood the video would come out is even less consistent with how he operates. If Goodell wanted to sweep it under the rug, he would have suspended Rice for the year. Hell, even just half the year and we wouldn't be…

I love Joe Biden but he seriously needs to stop emailing me. I think I get 100 emails a week from him and the rest of the DNC. It's beyond ridiculous at this point, and the unsubscribe button does nothing.

I'm sure your friends are not suffering from crippling alcoholism and drinking massive amounts of booze for days on end for years? That's the difference here. You're right it takes dedication to get to that level and a couple of weekend warriors doing Jager bombs until they puke isn't going to do it.

What some of my friends said after a weekend with a breathalyzer was that in a single night it's hard to get anything over 2,5 permil (0,025 bac). Anything more than that is a constant strive of being wasted.

That may be the case but Goodell not seeing the tape is not consistent with how he's done his job as commissioner. He's been very hands on and acts in a unilateral manner in most, if not all decisions. I find it hard to believe that a commissioner with as much control over the league would not want to see the tape.

I think it's entirely possible that they were told what was on the tape and refused to look at it to maintain plausible deniability.

Actually he's talking about the legality of handing over evidence in their possession. The casino is not obligated to keep that video private as there is no assumption of privacy in their elevator. I admit I'm no NJ law expert but that's the way I read the AG's comments.

Or, NFL security reported to Goodell on what they saw in the video, but he himself refrained to maintain plausible deniability.

I suspect that the NFL is using the Ferguson MO Police department as their pr consultants.

I think it's absolutely clear that somebody in the NFL saw the footage. Whether or not it climbed all the way up the pole to the commissioner or other high level executives—or whether they specifically worked to maintain some level of plausible deniability—remains to be seen. It's also kind of moot.

Not to mention Rice's lawyer likely released this higher-quality video to the Associated Press today in an effort to (obviously, impossibly) dampen his client's culpability. You think if this lawyer had access to this other video, the NFL didn't see it?

I just finished "Blood Sport" (the book about A-Rod and Biogenesis) that goes into great detail about how the MLB investigative team/security dept used extraordinary means to try and nail A-Rod for his connection to Biogenesis. Knowing Goodell's "Us Against Them" mentality towards the players, I find it very hard to…

Basically exactly what they did with Spygate.

Of course they fucking saw it. NFL investigators asked Brady about Welker's alleged recreational drug use. These assholes think they're the NSA as far as the information they believe they're entitled to. Now they want you to believe they'd just step aside and not look into additional video. Golly gee, we're just as…

This is very true. I was just pointing out the blatant lie they are perpetuating by saying they didn't see the tape. If TMZ got their hands on it, the NFL certainly could have, likely the same day it happened.

The NFL has an enormous security department made up of ex cops and FBI guys and stuff like that. They are also insane control freaks that will stop at nothing to protect their brand. There is a 100% possibility that NFL execs, and likely Goodell himself saw the video.

She is almost certainly a severe alcoholic and the high BAC is probably the result of a several day binge.

She really just got a little confused. She heard that saying before but thought it was Kids, drive them when you drink. It's all just a misunderstanding.
