I just don't know what more can be demonstrated to this point. The legal system doesn't drop hammers on cases like this. I've said it literally from day 1. They just never have - doing so here would be a WILD swerve from existing precedent. The NFL barely even notices these things; 1-2 games tops unless it's a DUI situation. Doing anything else would be, again, a MASSIVE break from existing policy/precedent.
So is it their position that the NFL should completely scrap literally a decade+ of precedent and a trend established by dozens of previous incidents that are no better (and often worse) than what Rice did? All so they can hand down a disproportionately stiff punishment to Rashee Rice?
The degree of willful ignorance and obstinance here is just a head scratcher to me.
