Time for Roger Goodell to Resign

A day after a new video surfaced showing Ray Rice hitting his then-fiancée in the face in a hotel elevator, prompting the Baltimore Ravens to release the running back and the NFL to increase his suspension from two games to indefinite, Janay Rice defended her husband and criticized the media.

"I woke up this morning feeling like I had a horrible nightmare, feeling like I'm mourning the death of my closest friend," she wrote in an Instagram post. "But to have to accept the fact that it's reality is a nightmare itself. No one knows the pain that the media & unwanted options from the public has caused my family. To make us relive a moment in our lives that we regret everyday is a horrible thing.

"To take something away from the man I love that he has worked his ass off for all his life just to gain ratings is horrific. THIS IS OUR LIFE! What don't you all get. If your intentions were to hurt us, embarrass us, make us feel alone, take all happiness away, you've succeeded on so many levels. Just know we will continue to grow & show the world what real love is! Ravensnation we love you!"

It is hard not to feel extremely bad for her.

I usually save that feeling for people born into extreme poverty or stricken with a terminal illness, not millionaires who put themselves in these types of reckless situations.

Now, I aint sayin she's a gold digga......

You're right though, her whole world was flipped upside down in the matter of a few days. She thought her hubby was getting off with just a slap on the wrist, only to have his livelihood taken from him, and as the provoker of the situation, she is probably brimming with guilt.

and here we thought fellow Scarlet Knight Kenny Britt screwed the pooch.

If the NFL is liable for concussions then they can most certainly be liable for domestic violence.

I can't see a team giving him a shot next year. There's not much to gain. The guy had a horrible 2013 season and he's sitting this year.

No way he'll come back and be competitive.

Agreed.

If it was RayRay from 3-4 years ago, then yea, teams would be lining up to give him his second chance. Fact is, he's on the sharp decline, as all running backs suffer, and isn't worth the headache/media shenanigans that would surely ensue.

Sharp decline is a bit harsh IMO. He had an abysmal 2013 season, hampered by an ongoing hip injury that he played through. According to all accounts in camp, he was 100% going into this season and looked to have regained his 2012 form plus put on a little size.

I wouldn't write his skills off just yet, but can see no scenario where he would be viable on any team.

Christ, if Ricky Incognito is still enemy #1 for picking on a 6'5 320 lb football player, does anyone really think he has a prayer?
