The Unhealthy Relationship Between Sports and Domestic Violence.

I figured I should start this thread up before Haiku comes back armed to the teeth for another crusade or what have you.



In light of recent events, the sports world has been set ablaze by the NFL ruling a measly two game suspension for Raven's Runningback, Ray Rice for the alleged domestic abuse between himself and his wife (then girlfriend.) By alleged, I mean the turd knocked her out and dragged her body around like a rag doll through a hotel.



First Take's Stephen A Smith (a well documented douchebag) commented on the domestic abuse spat, saying (and paraphrasing here) that "Domestic abuse is not okay, but women should learn not to provoke violence." Yeah, because somehow women should always be blamed for whenever an athlete smacks them around. It's probably they're fault anyway.



Without getting carried away, Stephen A. Smith has more than often taking the unpopular side of domestic abuse scandals and sided with the man. Notable cases being Chad Johnson in 2012, and Floyd Mayweather Jr (whenever piece of shit Mayweather feels the need to knock a woman around anyway)



What is really getting to me is that in light of Josh Gordan's year long suspension, ESPN and the media were quick to hop onto the train that Josh has "personal issues he needs to resolve" or "needs to find himself" but in the same breath call domestic violence a "bad mistake" or soften the blow. (Unlike Ray Rice or Mayweather who like to throw haymakers at their girlfriends)



What's your take on all of this guys, you think piece of shit Ray Rice is getting off too easy? Does the punishment fit the crime? Is Mayweather a massive piece of shit?



On a scale of 1 to 10, how much shit does Stephen A Smith spew out of his pie hole on a daily basis?
