Ray Rice arrested.

Sweet. Glad this info broke after my trades :)

That said, this league and country is about bounce-backs, look at Ray Lewis.

I just hope there is more to the story :)

I guess she is also facing the same charge, although it's highly unlikely that she knocked him out lol... That said, I can't really see anything more then a 4gm suspension. But that could be just enough to give BP or CW a chance to take over.

I think a lot still needs to come out. Not that this looks good, but the video footage shows him trying to carry her. He isn't being overly aggressive by any means, if anything it just shows he needs hit the gym soon, he struggles pretty bad moving her around. A lot of the comments on the video speak to things that make sense, like if he was doing all that is being reported, why is the sticking around and trying to bring her up the elevator, etc.

Again, not saying this is good at all, but let's hear the entire story. There are some crazy chicks out there that can make big scenes and make things look far different than they are. I am cautious is all, Rice had a reputation for being a pretty nice dude. Seems very strange.

Ravens running back Ray Rice and his fiancee Janay Palmer attacked one another in an Atlantic City casino on Feb. 15, according to police. The two were arrested and charged with assault at the Revel Casino.

Video footage obtained by TMZ shows Rice allegedly dragging what looks to be an unconscious Palmer out of an elevator in the casino before the arrest. Rice is approached by a man who appears to be security, who speaks into a microphone as the running back is trying to pick Palmer off the floor. The couple was arrested later on and police said they have video that proves the two attacked each other.

Rice's attorney Michael Diamondstein responded to a request for comment, saying the video posted by TMZ is "not the complete event, but is merely the end result of what transpired."

Diamondstein added: "Neither Ray nor myself will try this case in the media.

"We'll assure the public that when this matter is fully tried and completed, you'll have a better understanding of what happened and we ask the public to reserve making any judgment until all of the facts come out."

The only thing Rice dragged all season :P

I'm so annoyed by all these places saying the video is "Rice DRAGGING her" Really? it took me 2sec of the video to realize he wasn't Dragging her. Dragging her would be grabbing her foot and dragging her around. He was trying to carry her, nothing about that showed dragging. If anything to me it looked like he was trying to help her.

Agreed. I don't see any evidence yet suggesting Rice was abusive. Just a report that she may have given. Who knows, that's why I say be cautious buying low, but don't rule out buying low. I just don't buy this story in its entirety. And, not excusing anyone putting their hands on a female, but I've seen some women beat at guy in the face over and over again thinking they won't get popped back and these athletes are trained to hit for a living. Not smart on her part if she started hitting him in the face first.

I know Cierre Woods is no Ray Rice, but if Kubiak booted Woods for alledgedly smoking pot, can't imagine this is gonna sit well with him

Good thing Kubiak isn't the head coach, I can't imagine he has a whole lot of say in stuff like this.

Bernard peirce :D

Yeah pretty sure Harbaugh could give a flying F what Kubiak thinks about Rice haha. Could be interesting to see since Kubiak was already talking about more of a time share in the run distrubition

I pictured him grabbing her by the hair and dragging her caveman style.

Unless there is a cut or suspension, not sure it all will affect playing time. Starting the season on the bench could, as Pierce could develop and maintain; however if they decide to hang with Rice, which I anticipate unless news breaks that worsens the situation vs helps it, it's not like a coach will say.. You got in a domestic abuse situation, there goes 20% of your touches but I'll still give you 50% total. He is either out or in to start.

I love Pierce, he was a breakout of mine last year, but I'd say don't count on Rice losing touches (more than we all were thinking prior to today) if he isn't suspended.

I still love the duo on the year, top 5-10Rb cuff IMO - for now.

Here's the video-since this seems to be the official Ray Rice arrest thread

Police allegedly have the video of the blow that knocked his fiancé out.

Guess dragging his fiancé was his longest carry of the season

^DING DING DING, we have a winner

Casino's (and hotels) have every square inch of the place on camera, except the individual rooms. Whatever happened is on tape somewhere

Sad situation regardless of the outcome. I heard today that they have footage of everything, it just hasn't been released publicly.

Side note- did anyone know his name is Raymell? Learn something new every day.

Howdy, Stranger!
