Per Rotoworld:
"Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti "aggressively stood by" Rice on Monday, but the case doesn't appear likely to go quietly. In addition to whatever the court decides, either via a plea deal or trial, Rice is facing a suspension."
The Pats cut Hernandez as soon as he's even CHARGED and the Pats still get BBQ'd for having him on their team, like they were totally complicit in all his activities off the field. The Ravens defend Rice to no end, then his charge gets elevated, but I haven't heard a peep out of ESPN or the national media. :bricks:
Can we at least pretend to keep things in perspective? Winning a fight by a knockout isn't anywhere near the same thing as giving multiple people a permanent firearm sendoff.

If I remember correctly, Ray Lewis gave a guy a nice firearm sendoff and all the Ravens did was pay for his legal bills and give him the best lawyer this side of Johnnie Cochran. But maybe that's just me being a jaded Pats fan.
So, what do you think Deus?
3rd degree agg assault at the moment.
I'm thinking obvious plea down to simple assault, absolutely no possibility of jail time, and about a 4 game suspension from the NFL--max.

Ray Lewis didn't kill anybody. He was present when his friends killed somebody (with a knife, I believe, not a gun) and no one was ever punished for that murder, in large part due to Ray's lack of willingness to point a finger at the killer, which makes him an abettor of murder in the public eye if not the eye of the law. Much like OJ, you can thank a completely botched prosecution for this one, though.
This remains open to question.Ray Lewis didn't kill anybody.

I guess it depends on what source you want to cite/believe. This account and others I've seen state that Oakley and Sweeting were acquitted for lack of evidence. Lewis' white suit, a key item that could've sunk him, was never found.No it's not. The jury found that Lewis' friends killed the two men but were acting in self-defense.
