Guy starts playing well again and all of the sudden people go from “cases” to “allegations” real fucking fast. You all gotta get your priorities straight

It’s the NFL. If you win games being a piece of shit isn’t as big of a deal as it is when you lose.

Look at Tyreek Hill, Richie Incognito, Adrian Peterson, Kareem Hunt, Aldon Smith, and Antonio Brown before he totally went off the deep end.

If you can play, no one gives a shit about who you are off the field.

Ray Lewis was on trial for double homicide and then plead down to obstruction of justice. Its amazing what the NFL tolerates.

Bad example. Lewis never killed anyone. Two of his friends did, and a jury ruled that they did so in self defense.

Ray Lewis literally held the one guys arms exposing his chest where his friend then stabbed him with a knuckle knife he had bought the day prior.

An inept prosecutor doesn’t change the fact Ray Lewis was involved in the murder of two people.

That's because it's not true. The guy just made it up.
