his only chance is swinging the PR around which might take at least 12-18 months

he needs a full court press, counselling, community outreach, volunteering etc.


Michael Vicks agent, pr director , parole office, Jesse Jackson and tony dungee are all on a conference call right now figuring it all out....
 
No he's never playing in the nfl again. If a video of mike Vick existed killing dogs he wouldn't be in the nfl. The video is the X factor
 
Wonder if how this affects Goodell... wouldn't be surprised if he is forced to step down....

Yup, TMZ taking down everyone - new age of sports media. Just surprised how they got a hand on the tape and why it took so long to leak.
 
At first I thought you guys were dead wrong about RR never playing in the league again. Heck, I was ready to scour the waiver wire in fantasy believing a team like NE would pick him up in a heartbeat. Now, I'm not so sure it would be that easy. I think he COULD play again but he will have to go on a PR campaign that would need to out-do those of Ray Lewis, Mike Vick, and Pacman Jones combined.
 
And I'm glad Balty cut him. First part of this whole saga that's finally played out how it was supposed to.

ESPN had an interesting piece in their article breaking this story on double jeopardy in that the league suspended RR before this video came to light and he's already serving that suspension and that the NFL couldn't go back and suspend him again because he could easily beat it in court. I wonder how this will play out.
 
That was a one-hitter quitter right there. Decent form, need to see a little more footwork though from Ray. She was unbalanced and left herself unprotected, lunging is never a good strategy in boxing.
 
The outrage over the new video is at least a little puzzling, not because the video isn't outrageous, but what the fuck did everyone already think happened in there before viewing the new one? The old video provided all you needed to know, kind of like Spielberg not showing the shark yet in Jaws but you knew what happened. The new video kind of confirms what I had already envisioned and assumed.

Would have liked to see him work the body more, but he knew he only had one round/floor left.
 
One other thing that is shady is TMZ gets their hands on this footage about a week after The Revel in Atlantic City shuts down.
 
Unless hes banned by the NFL, I expect to see him in a Raiders uniform...soon...

Looks like an employee got a nice severance package

Wonder if the nfl was offered the tape and decided against purchasing it. You would think they never wanted this released
 
Though acknowledging they had the tape and weren't releasing it may have been an even bigger pr hit
 
Anyone know who the major losers/lenders in the Revel shutdown are?? They just lost over $2 billion. Might be a bit out there but they may have forced the sale if TMZ came with a ridiculous offer. I have a hard time believing that one employee at a casino could get away with leaking this footage.
 
Construction of the resort cost $2.4 billion.[19] Global financial company Morgan Stanley, the owner of 90% of Revel Entertainment Group, decided in April 2010 to discontinue construction and put its stake in Revel up for sale and walk away from its $932 million investment.[20] On February 1, 2011, as part of his plan to revitalize Atlantic City, Governor Chris Christie announced that the State of New Jersey would invest $260 million in the stalled project in exchange for 20% of the revenues.[21] On February 17, 2011, Revel Entertainment Group, LLC announced that it completed a $1.15 billion financing package which enabled the company to complete construction of Revel.
 
About time. Ravens acting because of the public backlash but it's better late then never.

The video thing is strange .

Glazer was on DP about a month ago and said that the NFl knew there was more video but they weren't able to see it and wouldn't be able to see it because the DA would not release it.

Maybe it was turned over to the DA and but someone made a copy?
 
the DA had it, that's for sure. the NFL leaked the info that they had seen the video to several reporters, now they're saying they never saw it.

Things a mess , and of course I'm sure it wouldn't shock anyone if it was sold by someone in the DA office
 
At least two Baltimore-area Dick's Sporting Goods have told CBSSports.com that they were instructed by the corporate office to pull Ray Rice jerseys off the shelves.
 
This sums it up for Goodell and the NFL:

So the Ravens cut Ray Rice not because he beat his wife but because the video of it went public? That is friggin pathetic.

it's always Jaws with you tip...
 
Football related the Ravens are in a bad spot for the future with a 9.3 mill hit on their cap next year. Tough hit for a team that's been pretty bad since winning the Sb
 
I don't think goodel survives this. He is basically calling a lot of respected NfL reporters/insiders liars. Whats the old saying- never wage battle with an entity they buys their ink by the 50 gallon drum. Mortenson interview was fantastic. He did a lot of eye rolling.

That's big hit. Can't remember, how much cap did ne lose when they get AH? Don't recall it being that much
 
Pretty sad because he was only 27 years old, that's prime time for most players. But he can only blame himself.
 
Seth Rogen -- I don't know much about football, but I know that Ray Rice is a piece of garbage who shouldn't be allowed to play it professionally anymore. @nflcommish your punishment for beating a woman is less than for smoking weed. Get your head out of your f**king ass.

Deion Sanders -- Instead of @RayRice27 and his Wife being the topic of your conversation today for the video let's PRAY for them and their marriage.

Michelle Beadle -- She must have used some pretty inflammatory words to deserve those punches. Two freaking games. Criminal act. Go sit in the corner.<span >Did @nfl and @nflcommish really think this video wouldn't eventually surface? That we wouldn't see that disgrace? Never too late, Goodell

Jay Glazer -- I am never speechless. That ray rice video... beyond words. Ban him now! ...
If you play a violent sport & are violent toward a woman ur right to play that sport should be taken away. Plus his callous disregard for her well being after she was KO'd is equally as disturbing. Absolutely disgraceful

Keith Olbermann -- Roger Goodell's position as Commissioner of the NFL is no longer tenable. Whether he saw the #RayRice video or he did not, he failed.

Doug Gottlieb -- Remember when #Ravens fans gave #RayRice a standing O.... Twice? Good times

Coy Wire -- NFL Players Association should demand that Ray Rice be banned from the NFL. I'd be damned if I had to be associated w/ him.

Jason Jones -- @NFL If you truly didn't know about this video, you not only need to fire Ray Rice, you need to hire the investigative team @TMZ

Linda Cohn -- Looks like this #RayRice video was more important to discover for TMZSports than it was to the @NFL. Very sad.

Chris Kluwe -- Looks like the Ravens' strategy of "MOVE ALONG FOLKS, RAY RICE'S WIFE IS SORRY SHE GOT BEATEN" might not have been the best choice.

Sage Steele -- One of the most disgusting aspects of new #RayRice video? Failure of prosecutors in Atlantic County, NJ. Saw video & didn't prosecute? Sick.

Jamie Lee Curtis -- Roger Goodell shame on you and the NFL. Two games? Really? Two games? Assault is assault. Take an action. Find your mind.

Lisa Guerrero -- Outrageous. The @NFL interviewed Janay Palmer with Ray Rice in the room? Really?
By the way, the beginning of the new video appears to show #RayRice SPITTING on his fiancé before hitting her twice and knocking her out.

Ben Leber -- Not to take attention away from Ray Rice, but Goodell and his suits saw the elevator video in July. They need to be held accountable as well

Randy Cross -- So now we're supposed to believe that Rice & his counsel had access to the tape but the NFL & their NSA/Security didn't?

Skip Bayless -- Our legal system and our NFL commisisoner look so bad and shameful now that we've seen what actually happened inside that elevator.
My opinion: Ray Rice should be gone for the rest of the season.

Scott Fujita -- <>I'm glad no one this morning seems to care about yesterday's games. This piece of sh** needs to be out of the league. Period.

Brady Quinn -- Am I the only one who believes it should be a lifetime ban for the first time a player commits domestic violence? They should be done period.

Chris Harris -- The NFL should have zero tolerance for domestic violence. There is never a reason for any man to be violent towards any woman.

Duke Ihenacho -- Just so many things wrong with this situation. Spit, punch, trying to wake her up like she passed out on her own..na ain't coo

Terrance Knighton -- That man should be thrown out the the nfl and thrown into jail. Shame on those deciding his punishment. Smh

Sydney Leroux -- Yes, Ray Rice needs to be banned from the NFL but can we please get his wife some help for marrying him after the fact?

Marlon Wayans -- Watchin this @RayRice27 stuff and I say hitting a woman is not something a man should do. But I think that PEOPLE need 2 communicate better.

Tom Arnold -- I miss what Joan Rivers would've said about Ray Rice today.

Alex Holmes -- Scary revelation. Without @TMZ Donald Sterling still owns the Clippers and Ray Rice would still have a job. #letthatsinkin

Sen. Richard Blumenthal -- It shouldn’t take a video to do the right thing. I commend @Ravens but urge @nflcommish to act on harsher penalties for domestic abuse. -RB

Jenn Sterger -- At least the Ravens organization has stepped up where @nflcommish fumbled. Thank you Baltimore.

Taylor Twellman -- Sorry but I'm not applauding @Ravens for today's cutting of Ray Rice because fact is he'd be playing if not for @TMZ releasing the video.

B. Scott -- The video of Ray Rice punching his fiancée, knocking her out and then casually dragging her out the elevator is truly disturbing.

David Boreanaz -- How does the @nfl not KNOW about the video in the elevator of Ray Rice? #DontBuyIt

Christopher KID Reid -- How did people think Ray Rice's wife ended up knocked out???....a major fart from Ray?....too many Fireball shots by her?.... #YallKnew

Jeff Dunham -- No joke here: As a father of three girls, I say Ray Rice should be banned from every sport and should be serving hard time in prison.

David Clowney -- Ray Rice is a really good dude!! I don't believe he is a woman beater, I think he just made one awful mistake..

Holly Robinson Peete -- Right move. He could have killed her. Thank goodness for video. Shame NFL, law enforcement and Ravens had to be outted by TMZ... smh

Swin Cash -- It's very difficult to read some of these post blaming the victim in the ray rice situation. Disgusting!!! U have no idea how DV changes u

Ja Rule -- Damn Ray Rice NOT COOL he should get the LIFE ban

Mike Greenberg -- NFL teams do exhaustive research on the personal lives of players they draft in the fifth round. "We never saw it" is hard to fathom.

Terry Crews -- The Ray Rice incident occurred many times n my childhood, & I believe nothing'll change unless MEN change the culture that allows this abuse

Charlamagne Tha God -- And stop saying TMZ ruined Ray Rice's life. TMZ just doing their job. If he didn't hit her wouldn't be a video tape for TMZ to post.

Dick Vitale -- Rice CUT - The only right thing to do - #NOOTHERCHOICE
 
I would be calling for the D.A to resign effective immediately. You have this evidence and decide not to pursue criminal charges ? WTF
 
Everyone saw the first vid where she was knocked out on the floor, and Ray acting nonchalantly - what was everyone expecting with the new video, just the punch?
 
Glad he is cut.
Remember this guy's, he is not any good anymore.. 2.8 ypc?? Last season?
Guy has a lot of wear n tear.
If he was any good, a team would sign him.
