No getting around it:
Professional athletes are poster boys for domestic abuse.
Those pampered overpaid buffoons routinely beat up their significant others and fans keep buying $15 boxes of popcorn to pay their outrageous salaries.
It has always been that way. Roman gladiators looked to blood-thirsty Colosseum fans for how to deal with defeated foes. Thumbs down every time.
Raymell Rice, the now-former ace running back for the Baltimore Ravens, used a left hook to cold-cock his fiance in an Atlantic City casino elevator.
He then dragged the unconscious body out of the car with booty exposed to God and everyone.
He initially got a two-game suspension until the taped elevator punch went viral, forcing the National Football League to suspend him for a year.
Male fans of football and other violent "sports" simply yawn. Wives of those fans, however, are outraged.
Until they too are decked. (14 SEPTEMBER 2014))
