Your analogy sucks.
Yeah except the part where this happened.
Former 49er, Raider Kwame Harris charged with assaulting ex-boyfriend
This already happened, except not to a human to a dog. CEO got caught on tape in another elevator abusing a dog ,and was forced to resign.
Yes I know, it was actually related to the NFL since the guy was a CEO of a company that catered to many NFL stadiums.
What is Rice? An employee of the NFL. There lines of separation between a single player(aka: employee) and the CEO are huge, (coaches, owner of the team, etc.) All the rest are exempt but it's the head of the entire organization that should be held responsible and lose his job for something that was done years ago by an employee?
There is no doubt in my mind that Rice has done this multiple times before. After he knocks her out, he is pretty much un remorseful on the whole incident. He even kicks her when shes on the ground to see if she was still alive.
How are you not understanding this?
The guy was probably pretty heavily inebriated like they said in the report. He's basically trained his whole life to lack remorse and emotions when physically assaulting someone. It actually doesn't surprise me that he acts that way. I'd like to believe it was his first time doing something like that.
So Goodell has to punish people appropriately? Who determines what is pathetic and what isn't? You? Me? Mob rule? Because that is what's happening right now. You have every group under the sun coming out and saying he should've done this or should have to step down. People are treating him almost as if he's just as guilty as rice (both lose their jobs because of this)
Yes. It is his job to handle out penalties/fines/suspensions in the NFL. What determines it's pathetic is obviously his actions after the video was released. He thought a two game suspension was good enough and then once the public KNEW what happened he suspended him indefinitely.
reading this account makes me think he has done this before. I still don't know if what the guards are saying is true, but the description they give is he immediately tried to cover it up w/o hesitation. Add to that his remorseless reaction on the video makes me think it is not his first time.
No one does, but if the guy can lose his temper like that in a public place, odds are its happened in private more then once.
Well then you are a idiot or do not work with any company that cares about its corporate image. If I did something that became public and brought tarnish to my companies reputation I would be fired post haste.
I never said that it was, that is the law's job as I stated.
