papasmurfbell Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 That was not my point. I said he will sue and was told that he can live off what he has already made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papasmurfbell Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 The video will have nothing to do with it. It would be the testimony of Goodell, Biscotti, Ozzie, and all the rest. I personaly don't think it will get there. No way the NFL wants to give Rice's lawyers all the documents they will demand. If they get out it could look really bad.

oldno82 Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 That was not my point. I said he will sue and was told that he can live off what he has already made. What I said was, he has been paid millions. If he's squandered it that fast, why should I care? He can sue all he wants and it doesn't matter a rat's ass to me if he wins or loses.

papasmurfbell Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 I am just saying he will sue. Look at Jamal. He burned his money and jumped at the first payday he could find with the CTE settlement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deeshopper Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 I was out of the country when all of this went down and in the middle of the ocean without Internet. I've followed what I can, but I have a hard time reconciling that a punishment can be handed down, then the rules changed, and then a harsher punishment given as a result of the new rules after the fact. That doesn't sit well with me. Obviously, the Ravens can do what they want with his contract, but the NFL doling out two punishments for the same infraction seems unfair. Is this what the players union is saying? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papasmurfbell Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 And that is what the NFLPA and Rice are going after the NFL on. I think Rice wins on that but still think nobody will touch him. That is where the suit would come from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papasmurfbell Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/10/08/rice-could-still-pursue-grievance-against-ravens/ Rice could still pursue grievance against RavensBefore Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti considers giving Ray Rice another job, Bisciotti may want to wait to see whether Rice tries to extract more cash for the job Rice already has had.Per multiple sources, Rice still may pursue a grievance against the Ravens for terminating his contract in the hours following the release of the notorious elevator video.The argument would mirror the position Rice and the NFLPA will take regarding the indefinite suspension imposed by the league office. Rice already had received a punishment for the assault on his then-fiancée, now wife. When Commissioner Roger Goodell imposed a two-game suspension, both the team and the league knew or should have known all relevant facts regarding his off-field misconduct.The knee-jerk reaction from both the team and the league after video evidence of what they’d already known he’d done — knocked out Janay Palmer Rice — may have been the right move from a P.R. standpoint, but under the labor deal both moves arguably constitute a second punishment.Rice was due to earn a base salary of $4 million this year. With $470,588 deducted for the two-game suspension he didn’t appeal, Rice would be eligible for the remaining $3.52 million — if he prevails on the pending grievance attacking his indefinite suspension and if he wins on an eventual grievance challenging the team’s decision to cut him loose.While Rice had only three days to appeal the indefinite suspension imposed by the league, Rice has at least 50 days to appeal the Ravens’ decision to cut him loose.Some of you may be saying, “Wait, isn’t he allowed to collect the balance of his salary as termination pay, since he’s a vested veteran?” Because he was never on the active roster for the Ravens on or after Week One of the 2014 season, Rice isn’t eligible for termination pay.So, instead, he’ll have to challenge his termination in order to get paid.If Rice prevails, he will have pocketed $29 million in three seasons from the Ravens, an annual average that running backs rarely realize in today’s NFL.

tsylvester Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 This should be interesting. Ozzie will be under oath, does he continue with his statement of Ray being completely honest, describing exactly what was on the tape or does he skirt the issue with; "it is my opinion....." If he does stand fast, that would call out Biscut and Goody at the same time.... hmmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tsylvester Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 This is why I think Ozzie is out after the season. My thoughts as well. It is the perfect "cover". He is aging quickly, been at this a long time and now has two Super Bowl wins. An easy way to say he is retiring without alerting the general public to the fact he knows and thinks the handling of the Rice situation was wrong.

papasmurfbell Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/11/02/judge-issues-gag-order-in-ray-rice-appeal/ Judge issues gag order in Ray Rice appealOn Wednesday, the Ray Rice appeal hearing will commence in New York City, with a roster of witnesses including Commissioner Roger Goodell answering questions about the decision to suspend Rice indefinitely after initially suspending him for only two games. But the chance of leaks has been diminished.Sort of.Per a league source, former federal judge Barbara S. Jones has issued a gag order, preventing the lawyers or the parties from talking about the case.It’s unclear whether either side asked for it or whether Judge Jones made the proclamation on her own. It also will be difficult for her to enforce the order; if someone is committed to blabbing and if the reporter to whom the blabbing occurs respects a request for anonymity, there’s nothing she can do.In a normal court case, the judge could try to compel the reporter to blab. Judge Jones has no jurisdiction over any reporters — except for reporters employed by the NFL via NFL Media.So if anyone wants to blab, I’m all ears. BS! Goody wants this to stay quiet. He is the one who has something to hide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
