Grantland recently talked about how by Georgia law, he's just as guilty as his friends of murder in this situation. By your own logic, the two guys didn't murder the vics, the knives did (knives purchased the day before by Ray Ray, I might add).

If the guy weren't a famous football player, he'd be in prison right now, there's no doubt about it. People can make all the excuses they want for him. Stop the nonsense. I'm tired of grown men making excuses for another grown man because he gives good pep-talks and dances on the field. It's embarrassing.

Not sure I can agree with Heath Evans on this. I heard a researcher on the radio say there is a substantial amount of the active element in HGH in deer antler spray. He seemed to think that it's a kind of growth hormone.

The media does not seem to understand how the public hates and despises Ray Lewis. He is the worst thing to happen to football in decades; a killer and a thug has been lionized by the media while the general public watches it appalled and disgusted. There seems to be this code is silence in the media not to discuss his past but the public knows what he did. There is a disconnect between what the media wants us to believe about this criminal and what we have observed

I live in NJ. Most fans here who are into pro football and not Ravens fans or Ravens haters seem to get that Ray Lewis is a bad guy.

That the media doesn't get it or deal with it is pathetic.

I can't be the only one that searched for deer antler spray on amazon shortly after this emerged.

I woke up one day and had antlers on my lower unit...I thought somebody sprayed that crap on me...then I realized they were a gift from my ex-Hawaiian GF, Kamon Iwanalaya...

Are you sure it wasn't from your Chinese girlfriend Tung Hung Lo?

What does this even mean? Do you mean that the DA for Atlanta--a city which has absolutely no ties to Lewis--gave him special treatment because he is a pro athlete, even though doing so damaged his own career greatly?? If so, you don't understand the mentality or MO of a state prosecutor.

Or are you saying that, if he couldn't afford quality legal counsel, he would've gone down for murder? NOw, this might actually be true. But nobody cries when these white collar criminals have fancy lawyers that get them off major jail time. Apparently, people only have a problem when black guys have fancy lawyers that can give them adequate representation.

Right. Like nobody has complained that John Corzine got away with "losing" over a billion dollars.

Black or white does not matter. If you have the financial means to hire the best representation possible, your chances of beating the charge expands geometrically. Money buys acquittals, lack of it results in guilty verdicts, black, white, purple, striped, beige, orange, red, yellow or any color or religion you care to choose.
