Well, if the Patriots do sign Ray Rice, I hope they put a clause in his contract that says he has to take the stairs.
Knocking someone down the stairwell is a lot worse...

If he's cleared to play by the league, I'd take him in a heart beat.
Why? He seems washed up in my opinion.
He's a better straight up RB than anyone we have on the roster and will come cheap.
Last year was a down year for the Ravens in general, but particularly their OL.Ya I guess I'd like to know of last year was a down year for him or if he's just truly out of gas.

Absolutely a legitimate question. I'd say he'd be worth bringing in. Of course, Kraft couldn't bring him in now, even if he wanted to. He's already burned that bridge.
True they did have problems blocking. He would probably play his ass off because of whats happened. Just not sure what he has left.
- My guess is that those who might think that signing Ray Rice is OK actually don't think what he did is all that wrong. Bingo...
One alleged rape, one alleged physical assault, one sexual assault and one domestic assault -- before one of its star athletes left campus in 2010.
1st incident - October 2008:
A sophomore at Missouri reported that running back Derrick Washington raped her in her dorm room.
"He grabbed both my wrists with one hand and kept doing [sic] and just proceeded to put his penis inside of me," the woman told "Outside the Lines" about the 2008 incident. "When I was finally able to push him off me, he just kept saying that if I said anything they would kick him off the football team. And football was his life, so if I said anything, he would kill me and kill himself."
2nd Incident - May 2010:
A women's soccer player said Washington punched her at a bar.
3rd incident: June 2010:
A 2009 Missouri graduate and former athletic department tutor reported that Washington -- who was at her apartment to have sex with her roommate -- crept into her bedroom in the middle of the night and sexually assaulted her.
4th incident: September 2010
Washington was arrested for beating up his ex-girlfriend.
In September 2011, a jury convicted him of sexually assaulting Braeckel, and a judge sentenced him to five years in prison. He served four months as part of a first-time offenders program and had to register as a sex offender. In February 2012, he pleaded guilty to misdemeanor third-degree domestic assault for the attack on his former girlfriend and was sentenced to 90 days in jail, which he served concurrently with the deviate sexual assault sentence.
Do people seriously forget that the Patriots held a private workout for runningback Derrick Washington just last year?
Derrick Washington, who just got out of jail for committing rape. An absolute lowest of the low scumbags, was actually accused of rape before that as well but the school botched the investigation and he ended up raping a different girl in her sleep (snuck in her dorm and raped her in her sleep, the girl was a virgin too).
And the Patriots decided to call that guy in for a private workout fresh out of jail.
Sickening. I'd wish I could say the Patriots are the "good guys" but they're no different than the rest of the league.
Do people seriously forget that the Patriots often use workouts for scouting/not signing purposes?
