Around the NFL: Week 3

[SmootSmack]

First that press conference was just so so so painful to watch. I shut it off after 5 minutes. Goodell needed to come out with at least one definitive action. This is why I think he should have held a press conference to announce that Rice was being banned indefinitely. He would have gotten some Silver-like respect if he stood in front of a podium and said "Ray Rice is done"

Second, because of my career I've always been more aware I suppose than most of what happens behind closed doors and have heard many stories that would make people cringe (no fixing of games for those of you who want to start threads about that). It's all part of running a multi-billion operation I tell myself. You want the steak, might as well see how they kill the cow.

But I've never seen anything like this. Ever. If Harbaugh actually pushed for them to release Rice and company, good for him and he should be allowed to move on from that toxic situation somewhere else. Cass, who's been a major player in NFL circles for years should be immediately relieved of his duties and "forced" back to his 8 figure partner salary at his old law firm. The Ravens should be docked money and draft picks. Newsome should be suspended for I don't know, 1 year. And Bisciotti the same. That's 1 year minimum.
