Stephen A. Smith catching hell on twitter right now from his own Colleague at ESPN

[Dr. Narcisse]

Rice’s wife, a source said, made a moving and apparently convincing case to Goodell during a June 16 hearing at Goodell’s office in Manhattan—attended by Rice, GM Ozzie Newsome, club president dikk Cass of Baltimore; and Goodell, Jeff Pash and Adolpho Birch of the league—that the incident in the hotel elevator was a one-time event, and nothing physical had happened in their relationship before or since. She urged Goodell, the source said, to not ruin Rice’s image and career with his sanctions.

Here is what the Post’s source said happen.

An impassioned plea from Ray Rice’s wife, Janay Palmer, at the Baltimore Ravens running back’s disciplinary hearing with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell reportedly was instrumental in limiting the length of Rice’s league suspension for a domestic violence incident involving Palmer to two games.

Should Roger Goodell have just ignored Janay Palmer and made an example out of Ray Rice? Should Goodell have dropped the hammer that any domestic violence regardless of the situation would be dealt with severely? Should Goodell sent a message, that one time is still one time too many and you should never lay a hand on a woman? These are the questions that should be asked.

I am not a domestic violence expert, so I can’t go into the mind of a woman who married a guy just weeks after he knocked her unconscious, I am not qualified to do that. I am just noting while people are upset and rightfully so about Ray Rice’s suspension, the person who should have been upset the most, was the same person making a plea for her husband not to get punished.

You're better served telling dudes how to carry themselves like you did rather than riding for this "I understand" bs. Enough of us have gone through shyt where we've received the bad end of the stick. When I got locked up for defending myself and was sitting in a cell at the police precent telling the cops what really happened about shorty attacking me, the cop looked at me, shook his head and said "you won't win because you don't have this:

mimicking a p*ssy.

We need to teach our boys how to avoid being in these situations rather than riding for cats to do the opposite. If you're a dude that's avoided it, do niqqas a services and tell them to follow your example. That "living through other niqqas" shyt is for the birds.

I can tell u have regrets. Its sad how our justice system works. I feel for u, but your situation proves my point. A woman can provoke a man. I never said there wouldnt be consequences. Some men can deal with them, I know I wouldnt even wanna try to deal with them. I firmly believe telling women its nothing they can do to provoke a man is foolish and dangerous.

All the cry wolf ass liberals happy wit his apology or nah? A nikka just woke up. All I heard is SAS still on the air. fukk these hoes and fukk these fakkits. I don't even like that loud nikka but I am glaaaaaaad ESPN ain't fall completely for that hoes fake outrage. I'd ship her ass riiiight back the fukk out

Problem causing ass hoe

 

[Field Marshall Bradley]

you acting like that justifies it, since he was the "wrong nikka" its ok to do that.
first off, stop talking about nikkas with this, this is a male problem, not a "nikka" problem.
second, living vicariously thru abusive nikkas is some of the worst shyt i have read on here. basically you look up to men who would beat a weaker female.
third, if that man is that easily provoked than he is not a man, he is a boy. If a person provokes you, they control you, and real men are not controlled by women and their actions.

Now yall running way too hard with this......

This thread isnt a what would u do in this situation thread, is it? I was under the impression that Stephen A's comments were the topic. Provocation was the topic. Im not quite sure whose wreckless experiences Ive spoken on.

My experiences are I wanted to hit the bish. I could justify in my mind doing it. In my mind she deserved to get hit. In my situation. Becuz of my experiences I believe in provocation. That there are things a woman can do to prvoke her beating. I believe "Domestic Violence" isnt as simple as people pretend it is. Questions should be asked. At times there is a story involved. All domestic violence isnt some angry bully picking on the weak. IMO. In those situations, the dude is a bish.

I dont know how I can be more clear breh.

Dude don't like Stephen A so he going to get his Beadle on with people that are "co signing" him so its not worth it because on this dude coming from so bias a place its like you got it fam.

 

[O.G.B]

her two cents worthless because she not riding with u dudes and echoing the same sentiments huh

Considering your feminine traits which you've demonstrated throughout The Coli, I wouldn't really expect you to understand.

Here's the thing....I was smart enough to keep that crazy chick's emails and she worked as a lawyer in the same court I was going back and forth to. She wanted NO PARTS of those emails shown to her co workers bruh!! She got my charges dropped.

They made them start the show off apologizing before the theme music even kicked in. That's never been done in ESPN history to my knowledge.

Now yall running way too hard with this......

nah, that was in relation to what i was saying to taxman, not pertaining to SAS.

 

[NYC Rebel]

Hold up....you must be BLIND to me pointing out the selective outrage of Beadle and all of these types.

I don't like Stephen A for this reason....he VICTIM BLAMES blacks for being victims of racism.
I don't like Beadle because SAS BEEN victim blaming and only NOW does she see it.

You rock for that clown if you want to.

No, you're not going to equate the difference in power between black men vs the racist system of white supremacy with the difference of power between the average man and woman. I'm not advocating for anyone to abuse their power men or women. I'm saying that the standards of behavior need to be the same for both sexes. If it's supposed to be wrong for a man to put hands on a woman then it should be just as wrong for women to put hands on men. The double standard that people like you want to perpetuate just isn't flying.

I just wish that you all had the courage to come and say that you think that women are inferior. Just want women to know exactly what kind of men are caping for them on this issue.

I'm not?

nikka I just did

Unless the woman has a weapon or is a trained fighter, something that 99% of women don't engage in because its considered masculine behavior, she has no chance against the average man.That's not anybody saying women are inferior because brute strength is not what anybody who knows the way the world works measures superiority/inferiority by. But when you are in a position of power you have the responsibility to not abuse it, that goes for men and women.

Now thats not always going to happen, cause plenty weak dudes are going to abuse that power and beat a broad's ass because they're easy targets. But when they do and get thrown in jail or shytted on publicly after, I'm having a hard time understanding how the fukk they have sympathizers. nikkas know the way the law works but want it to be one way when its the other way. I still bet they wouldn't be so easily 'provoked' to swing if it was a dude twice their size and strength talking that shyt too.

He still on there, while Beadle will be let go as soon as her trouble causin contract is up. Bout as good as it could have gotten when you got a lily white bytch championing lgbt fakkits leading the charge against ya

Some men can deal with them, I know I wouldnt even wanna try to deal with them. I firmly believe telling women its nothing they can do to provoke a man is foolish and dangerous.

If a woman attacks a man...its an attack. If a woman provokes a man with her mouth...that's never enough to put the beats onto her. I was attacked....not provoked.

 

[Davin Black]

~Stuff, then~
If you don't agree with that fukk we just have to agree to disagree.

Basically.

On topic: the apology was extra and unnecessary at this point, but I can see why he had to do it. "Damned if you do, damned if you don't" situation. Having him go on first was probably also a sublte "He's not getting fired, so stop crying over it" message...oh well. He's still a mouthbreathing sack of shyt, though.

Bet ESPN is loving those ratings, too.
