what was the Ray Rice talk about on the radio today ?

I didn't catch all of it, but Derrick Mason and Darren McFarland on 102.5 were discussing, seriously, the idea of Ray Rice as a Titan.
it wasn't apparent whether they were discussing a rumor , a tip or if they were just spitballing .
it was odd to them that noone was calling to oppose the idea.

Ray's 28
has 1,000+ yds in 4 out of 6 seasons (his first yr and his last yr (2013) were short)
caught more than 75 passes for over 700 yds twice, caught roughly 60 passes or more in all but rookie season (78,63,76,61,58)
 had a rough 2013 aside from a 131yd effort vs CHI where he avg'd 5.2 yds/carry. 

He's probably going to get a shot somewhere. His agent has said he's received some interest recently.
If he does join a team, what do you think the chances are it's here ? and would you OK it?
If he doesn't join the Titans, where would he go ? or has Ray played his last snap?

You're not getting to spend his millions.

 

Do I want to be poor and single? Or have money and get punched? 

Don't forget they weren't married at the time, it's not like she would have gotten half at that moment.

She just didn't want to leave the money. How could you cheer or want a women beater? If she was beating on him real good and he hit her to stop, I could understand. He's a piece of shit...

​I didn't defend his actions. I said I can forgive them. She's his wife now and can divorce him at any point she likes. She hasn't. People do fucked up shit in life the difference here is we know his dirt. If he becomes a repeat offender I'll revisit how I feel about him. You don't have to agree.

I'm a forgive bad behavior kind of guy (if a person is remorseful), but not much of a reward bad behavior kind of guy.  It's not easy making the determination as to second chances.

In this case, I find myself against it.  

Not to mention we've rolled the dice on a few guys with history already.

    My take is it's up to the offended party to press charges. If they willingly chose NOT to, why is the State even still involved, especially since as best I can tell there was never any "endangement of the public safety" by his actions..  http://www.cnn.com/2014/09/09/us/ray-rice-nfl-janay-rice/index.html

    A very similar situation to this occured over 10 years ago, and the player, RB Michael Pittman, went on to being a key cog in the Tampa Bay Bucs Super Bowl win.  http://www.sptimes.com/2003/06/11/Bucs/Pittman_s_wife_won_t_.shtml.

The couple has worked it out between them since then, which I applaud.

 Having gone thru that as a Bucs fan back then, I am not opposed to Ray Rice at all. Would he help us on the field? That's up to the staff to decide; I kinda remember the Ravens had major O'line issues that year, so his below-par success may be more due to that factor; dunno...

ok cool. now...
can everyone call Derrick Mason Weekdays 12:00 PM – 3:00 PM on the CALL IN LINE: 615-737-1025 and tell him " no / you're out ".
and find out why he'd devote so much airtime to something that ain't happenin'.

A lot of the guys they bring in for Rookie Symposium lectures are players that had some tribulation in the past.
most of the time, when someone pucks up and they go through the process of pondering it, embarrassment, punishment- they generally calm down.
that may actually make them serviceable role models because they've "been there / done that"
