QuoteMike Vick says 'there's no room for that' about Ray Rice while NY Jets coach Rex Ryan stays silent
If there's anyone who has benefited from getting a second chance at football, it's Vick. He was suspended indefinitely by the NFL in 2007 after pleading guilty to running an illegal dog fighting operation that was so ghastly, the losers were drowned, electrocuted or shot.


While Jets coach Rex Ryan ducked the topic of a video showing Ray Rice knocking his then-fiancée unconscious, QB Michael Vick took on the subject Monday, sharing his unique perspective given his own sordid past.

Rice was cut by the Baltimore Ravens and indefinitely suspended by the NFL on Monday after TMZ released footage of Rice leveling current wife Janay Palmer in a casino elevator earlier in the day.

"It's a tough situation," Vick told the Daily News Monday. "It's very sensitive. I think we all got to realize as professional athletes that we are professionals. And we have to be able to maintain our poise in all situations, on and off the field. There's just no room for that."

Did hear an interesting point that hasn't been mentioned re: Ray Rice and the elevator tape.

Somebody from the prosecutor's office pointed out that since the tape was being used as evidence for the grand jury, it would have been illegal to give it to the NFL.

They might be big, but they still don't have subpoena power.

You do realize that's a crock of shit, don't you.

QuoteThe Ravens announced on Tuesday that they will offer fans a chance to exchange their jerseys of former star running back Ray Rice at stadium stores.

Details of the jersey exchange are pending.

Rice's No. 27 jersey was one of the Ravens' most popular jerseys, but the team terminated his $35 million contract Monday after an ugly video surfaced of him punching his then-fiancee, Janay Palmer -- now his wife -- in a casino elevator.

Rice has been indefinitely suspended by the NFL.

The New England Patriots did a similar jersey exchange last year when they cut tight end Aaron Hernandez after he was arrested and charged with murder.

Rex Ryan had no comment since Rice didn't kick her.

Having trouble with the revelation that women > dogs?
"I've never been quite sure what the point of a eunuch is, if truth be told. It seems to me they're only men with the useful bits cut off."
I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

I'd rather opt in to the place giving out free pizza.

Which part?  That the DA's office can't give out evidence to a 3rd party or that the NFL doesn't have subpeona power?

I have trouble with convicted federal felons opening their mouths about anything regarding what the league has "room" for, Cunty McCuntstein.

That investigators couldn't go down to the casino and request a copy of the video, or at least view it.  Digital video is not subject to that sort of evidentiary control.  It's not like the cops and the prosecutor's office came down to the casino and seized the server.

Even after they have served their time and are free to actually be people again?  At what point can anyone get their voice back?  Or does it depend on who they hit and who open their mouths about?

I have no idea what that has to do with DSB's point, but what is what others are saying too so I suppose you are right.

Not for felons convicted of operating interstate gambling rings  for 7 years with mass graves filled with animals on their properties, no.

QuoteAt what point can anyone get their voice back?

Never.

QuoteOr does it depend on who they hit and who open their mouths about?

Badgering the witness.  Motion to strike upheld.

So there can never be rehabilitation?
