Now I agree that Rice should have been banned from the beginning of this thing....when it was known he knocked his fiancée out and then dragged her from the elevator. Everyone already knew that including the NFL and the Ravens. It was brutal then as it is now.
But now that we actually see it happen....everything changes? I don't really understand why. Visceral reaction? It got worse because we actually saw it?
This really has my curiosity peaked.

It's all about PR. You've seen it now so the NFL is scared and needs to act. Seeing it and hearing it are two different things.
Like Donald Sterling being a glassbowl for 30 years but until you HEARD him say it rather than just reading about it, he was fine.
SEEING > HEARING > READING
