It's impossible to tell wtf actually happened with McCoy based just off of what the waiter is saying (even if McCoy were to say something, it's hard to tell). There have been more than a few times where I left no tip, or a very small one, and I'm sure that's the case with most of you.

McCoy was probably just high as shit and thought he was being a nice guy by leaving a $20 tip.

I'm not defending Rice by any stretch. He's full grown man who took a grown man swing at a woman and he's got to take responsibility for it.
Why doesnt the woman have to take responsibility for assaulting a man?

I'm going to support the waiter at least 60% of the time and i do here. I hate the idea of tips and think they should be outlawed but, even with poor service, he deserved better. Shady comes off as the entitled asshole he is and I'm glad this got out. Hopefully every time he eats out, he has to wonder if someone spit in his food. Karma bitch.

She should but it's the same premise as any case that involves a person with martial arts training or advanced training of any kind. Can a woman defend herself from a professional football player? Not unless she has specific training. Did Rice's wife have any training? Maybe the two black eye kind but that's about it.

LOL. Bull-fucking-shit. Good luck trying that defense in court if a 160 lb guy attacks a 240 lb guy. "Well your honor, my client instigated the fight and got his ass kicked, but the other guy was BIGGER. Please dismiss the case!"

Ray Rice does not have any martial arts training or any advanced training in punching people. This argument is completely baseless.

He could have had her arrested for hitting him had he not done way more damage than she did. He decided he would rather knock her out because he was drunk or an asshole.

I am shocked that Araybro has decided to take a contrarian stance on this issue, said no one ever.

I had to just put him on my ignore list. Between his "It was funny 4000 posts ago" Cutler shit and now this even seeing his posts are tedious.

My first thought was "maybe he doesn't know how small numbers and decimal points work"

.20 = 20% right!?

Anyway, watching the guy make plays is better than a $12 tip.

Is Ray Rice no longer allowed to defend himself?

I understand Araysar's point completely. Gender equality is a thing or it isn't. It does look like she hit him first and then lunged at him. In the spur of the moment, he just raised his fist and clocked her. I'm not sure it's worthy of getting suspended indefinitely from your job - especially when there was a policy put in place TWO WEEKS AGO that states EXACTLY what the punishment should be in this case.

I think that six games thing was actually a minimum. Not that Goodell isn't shady as fuck.

File for divorce Janay. Then write a book and go on a women power tour. That will bring the happiness back!
Sad but true.

So you are contending that if someone comes up to me and just starts slapping me across the face repeatedly, I do not have the right to defend myself in any way because my life is not in danger?

Either gender equality is a thing or it isnt.

Fuck that. If you suck at your extremely easy job, you don't deserve shit.

Because they discipline however the fuck they want and have for years. Why are people pretending this is some fresh new travesty?
