Around the League: WEEK 1 Baby!

NFL is saying they requested, but never got to see this video. They based punishment off the exterior footage plus interviews.

That's bullshit. Did the prosecutor not have the video? Something fishy, not making any sense

To me, the prosecutor has more to answer for. The police had this video, so I can only imagine he saw it. If he didn't he really isn't doing his job. I don't see how you can give Rice the lightest punishment possible, then let him work to have it expunged.

I can almost forgive the NFL, because you can say they based their punishment on the first video and interviews. I am sure in the interviews Rice and his wife played it down and/or lied.

But there is no excuse for the prosecutor.

I heard, and this from months ago, and I believe this is from the horses mouth Goodell, that they had access to all evidence from the prosecutor and the police. That they shared all their information with NFL. So someone is lying
