The NFL has just announced that Rice has been suspended from the league.

A league spokesperson just issued a statement saying, "Roger Goodell has announced that based on new video evidence that became available today he has indefinitely suspended Ray Rice."

yeah it's not like a witness came forward with a cell phone vid. this is the same security camera system that caught him dragging the gf out of the elevator.

I'm glad goEMAW uses the same logic as me. Rice should have been released and blackballed with or without this additional video. Goodell and the Nfl just look like lying, scumbag, idiots now.

Looks like Deadspin is following that angle pretty hard.  I really hope they can prove that both the NFL front office and the Ravens had the video all along.

The Baltimore Ravens, who are still pretending they hadn't seen video of Ray Rice slugging his fiancée until this morning, despite evidence to the contrary, just announced in a one-sentence press release that they have cut Rice.

Update, 2:43 p.m. EDT: The NFL, also claiming it never saw the video, has suspended Rice indefinitely.

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

I am with Leber.  One League over, owners are being kicked for private racist remarks.  NFL turning point on domestic violence is coming up right now.

Had Rice been able to continue in the league, would he have gotten absolutely beaten down week in week out?

Whoa whoa whoa guys, the NFL has no idea what she said. For all we know, she may have deserved it.

I bet that's the first time she's seen that tape, cause I bet she barely remembers anything.  :frown:

Wonder how he's going to make ends meet during this period of unemployment?  He doesn't really have any other particular skills.  Maybe take a shot at stand up?:

This time away from football has given me an opportunity to try new things.  For instance, I just got back from visiting a battered women shelter, and boy, are my arms tired...

Why is she still with him? Very odd situation. Hope she can get out.

why does everyone keep using the "wow this is really a black eye for the NFL" metaphor when talking about this?  :nono:

Tough to judge whether or not she feels trapped in the relationship. Maybe she - like billions of folks around the world - sees Rice as her meal ticket.
