How can the NFL defend this

Firstly, the video is old, you wont get shock and awe from it, i reckon most here have seen it.

But the NFL has already conceded the handling of the Ray Rice domestic violence matter was unacceptable. Goodell basically came out and admitted they screwed up. And have recently put in a new policy that will see domestic violence matters be treated far harsher than they have been previously

and weed has always been against the NFL policy. You might not like it or agree with it, but it's thier work place and if they stipulate you cant smoke pot, well dont smoke pot... it's not like they dont know this. The testing is extremely lax, i believe they get tested only a handful of times a year for pot and at times that are predetermined, like months in advance

If you get pinched for pot in the NFL, it's because your an idiot who smoked the shit right before a test you've known about for months.

That's a new video isn't it? The old one just showed them outside the lift. Even more ridiculous he only got 2 games if the NFL had access to this as well.

Yeah, but did we really need to see video of him cold cocking his wife?
Like did anyone believe this was all just a horrible misunderstanding and she really just knocked herself out by leaping into his arms in a loving embrace because she couldnt stand not making love to him for a second longer?

No. He belted her. We all knew that

I can't see any indication that the NFL are defending this. Straw man thread title.

Pretty wrong to knock her out but what was she trying to accomplish by doing the pshyco walk at him. He could have pushed her away but it was always ending badly.

Well that bound to happen, naturally he had given them a softer version of the story
Any who, wonder how this will play out

NFL aide to Goodell: "Welker popped Molly."
Goodell: "2 games."
NFL aide: "Sir, it's a drug."
Goodell: "4 games."

Seems accurate.

As a Ravens fan I will miss Ray Rice the football player but the real Ray Rice seems like a piece of shit. We don't want people like that on our team. But knowing the Ravens someone else will step up and get arrested soon enough as the players can't seem to stay out of trouble these days.

This just keeps getting sadder

I woke up this morning feeling like I had a horrible nightmare, feeling like I'm mourning the death of my closest friend. But to have to accept the fact that it's reality is a nightmare in itself. No one knows the pain that the media & unwanted options from the public has caused my family. To make us relive a moment in our lives that we regret every day is a horrible thing. To take something away from the man I love that he has worked his ass of for all his life just to gain ratings is horrific. THIS IS OUR LIFE! What don't you all get. If your intentions were to hurt us, embarrass us, make us feel alone, take all happiness away, you've succeeded on so many levels. Just know we will continue to grow & show the world what real love is! Ravensnation we love you!
