From Yahoo Sports:
Ray Rice, in this pathetic story that began with the Baltimore Ravens running back punching his then-fiancée/now wife in the jaw, watching her slam her head against a metal elevator rail, hardly caring and eventually dragging her completely knocked-out body outside, isn’t even the one with the most explaining to do.
Rice was arrested and charged for the assault, which was captured on a video acquired by TMZ, but the charge is slated to be dismissed after the completion of a diversion program.
Rice should’ve been suspended by the NFL for more than a meager two games for the incident that took place in an elevator at an Atlantic City casino. He wasn’t.
A testosterone filled ape beating a woman…not a suprise at all.
While in this case I think Ray Rice way overreacted why is it always a national story, press conferences, and maybe even a new national holiday when a woman gets assaulted but if it’s a man no one cares? Case in point:

Ok, where’s the press conferences? Where’s the national outcry? Where’s the concern about violence against men? Oh yeah I forgot. It’s ok when a man is beaten TO DEATH but one woman receives ONE punch and everyone goes apeshit over it.
It is disturbing that it’s always “violence against women.” We created women from our rib, so we ought to be able to beat her, or, atleast, put some barbeque sauce on her and eat her. All kidding aside: Violence against anyone is equally wrong.
this is a bullshit video
Whats really dismaying about this is she was flinging her hands aggressively at him before they entered the elevator behind the pillar.
Then she physically pushed herself at him combatively and went toward him and he struck her where she fell to the ground.
We don’t know of she was drunk or if she was playing hurt or really knocked out …to gain attention but you can guess this multimillion dollar man has a real “Attention whore” on his hands yes hitting anyone is a problem and when someone attacks you as she did. You have every right to defend your self no matter who it is
Just because she is a woman does not excuse her or give her the right to assault him.
Whats even more troubling is she is still swatting at him after she gets up several times and wont quit her aggression
Looks mostly like self defense to me!!!
I think the NFL got it right. He is a first time offender while in the league and they both tried to make it seem it wasn’t as bad afterward, and still have gotten married and moved on …
But the likes of that boring doushe bag Keith Olberman who’s career is all but on life support wont let it go and acts like he is all mightier than thou …keep this fire burning ..
Rice may have been let go by the Ravens (Stupid cowards) .and after some lawyering and lots of trash talk by the media and aimed at roger Goodell and some pussy fans, a little anger management he will play again.
Here you go Jerry Jones … if you will just drop coyote ugly middle aged mistresses (Hookers) in the mens room and bench your stinking quarter back Romo you could have one of the best backs in the league and maybe make the playoffs after he returns
oh and one other thing to Mr Rice DTB – Dump That Bitch NOW she is not worth it youd be better off with Mr Sam’s if you get lonely… just saying
I’ve had women break stuff in my house, call and lie to my boss, steal, cheat and even punch, scratch, and spit at me. –Shit I would never take from a man. No cameras around then…and I’ll bet Ray Rice had a few too many of those ‘not in the media’ moments too and he just had ENOUGH.
Unfortunately women have the pussified media in so much fear, they crucified the guy. Do women want equality or do they want special treatment? Men don’t know, hell, WOMEN don’t know, and the media SURE doesn’t know. So they scare the talking heads into this kind of crap.
The moral of this story is Ray should have listened to Tom and dumped that bitch. If he had, he would be playing football this week. Anyone think an NFL Player would have any problems getting laid?
