Ray Rice, the NFL and domestic violence

R

oger  Goodell  and  the  NFL  werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  the  only  ones  that  dropped  the  ball  on  the  Ray  Rice  domestic  violence Â

issue.  The  NFL  is  the  most  popular  sport  in  America.  They  generate  the  most  revenue;͞  in  2011,  they  signed  a  televi-­ sion  deal  worth  27  billion  according  too  Forbes.

I  have  been  watching  the  NFL  since  I  was  10  years  old.   ESPN  is  the  most  powerful  sports  network  in  the  nation.  It  has  10  differ-­ ent  television  channels,  24-­hour  news  coverage  and  is  worth  10.4  billion,  according  too  Forbes.

They  are  the  800-­pound  gorilla  that  is  not  going  to  go  away  any  time  soon.

The  NFL  is  doing  great,  but  arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  they  abusing  their  power?  Isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  Roger  *RRGHOO Ă&#x20AC;H[LQJ KLV PXVFOHV D OLWWOH WZR much?  In  2012  Terrell  Suggs,  linebacker  for  the  Baltimore  Ravens,  punched  his  girlfriend  in  the  neck  and  dragged  her  alongside  a  speeding  car  in  front  of Â

their  children.

Last  month,  Carolina  Panthers  de-­ fensive  end  Greg  Hardy  pled  guilty  to  assaulting  a  female  and  communicat-­ ing  threats.

Neither  one  has  been  sus-­ pended.

Cleveland  Browns  wide  receiver  Josh  Gordon  was  suspended  an  entire  season  for  smoking  weed.

Do  you  see  a  trend?

How  can  someone  get  suspended  an  entire  season  for  harming  themselves  by  smoking  weed,  but  two  players  who  committed  violent  acts  toward  other  people  can  continue  play.  It  is  mind-­boggling.  It  looks  like  the  NFL  makes  up  the  rules  as  they  go,  and  nobody  has  put  their  foot  down  and  said  enough  is  enough.  They  have  failed  to  recognize  that  domestic  vio-­ lence  is  wrong.

The  media  and  the  general  public  were  outraged  that  Rice  only  got  a  two-­game  suspension.  This  topic  was  discussed  on  talk  radio  and  televi-­ sion,  and  was  written  about  in  newspapers.  (YHU\ PDMRU QHWZRUN VDZ WKH ÂżUVW video  of  Rice  dragging  his  unconscious  wife  out  of  the  elevator.  Didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  anyone  stop  to  think  that  he  knocked  her  out?

ESPNâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  Lester  Munson,  legal  ana-­ lyst,  said  the  NFL  has  the  best  of  the  best  at  their  disposal. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  NFL  easily  has  the  most  FDSDEOH WKH ODUJHVW WKH EHVW ÂżQDQFH security  detail  in  professional  sports,  these  guys  are  really  good,â&#x20AC;?  Munson  VDLG Âł7KH\ DUH H[ )%, DJHQWV WKHUH are  a  couple  former  police  chiefs.  They  have  two  jobs:  dig  up  what  happened;Íž  number  two,  try  to  keep  it  under  con-­ trol  and  spin  it  in  favor  of  the  league.â&#x20AC;?

Why  didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  the  NFL  do  their  due  diligence  on  domestic  violence?  Sources  say  that  the  Revel  Hotel  and  Casino  told  TMZ  that  no  one  from  the  NFL  asked  the  since-­closed  casino  for  the  video  of  the  couple  in  the  elevator  on  Feb.  15  incident  according  to  ESPN.com Goodell  thinks  differently. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We  had  not  seen  any  videotape  of  what  occurred  in  the  elevator,â&#x20AC;?  Goodell  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;We  assumed  that  there  was  a  video,  we  asked  for  video,  we  asked  for  anything  that  was  pertinent,  but  we  were  never  granted  that  opportunity.â&#x20AC;?  Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  clear  that  someone  is  lying,  and  the  commissionaire  is  blind  to  domes-­ tic  violence.  The  NFLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  reputation  will  take  a  sig-­ QLÂżFDQW KLW WKDW PD\ QRW EH UHSDLUHG

Should Goodell resign?

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yes,  he  made  a  lot  of  mistakes.  How  is  he  going  to  give  a  full  year  ban  for  someone  smoking  mari-­ juana,  but  a  two  game  suspension  for  someone  knocking  his  wife  out  cold?â&#x20AC;?

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  think  he  should  resign.  I  think  the  two  game  [suspension]  was  reasonable  because  itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  not  connected.â&#x20AC;?

â&#x20AC;&#x153;He  couldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve  handled  it  better.  [The  two  game  suspension]  didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  do  it  justice  enough.  He  shouldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve  given  this  player  full  suspension  from  the  entire  football  league  from  the  start.â&#x20AC;?

The Long Beach State womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s soccer team will play its first out-of-state game this Saturday in Provo, Utah against BYU before returning home to host Wake Forest on Monday night.

The 49ers (3-1-2) have maintained their No. 23 ranking in the NCAA; meanwhile, a poll by Soccer America Daily put them at No. 24.

The 49ers have been able to take advantage of home games going 3-0-1 at George Allen Field. Having one of the toughest schedules in the country that include three opponents in the NCAAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top-25 and two (Wake Forest and Santa Clara) that made it to last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sweet 16, senior defender Taylor Nelson knows how important winning home games is. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s huge,â&#x20AC;? Nelson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always what we say, the four years Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been here. We always want to be undefeated at home.â&#x20AC;?

A part of the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success at home has been the defense it has displayed on the field. Sophomore goalkeeper Ashton McKeown started only two games last season, but has helped the 49ers achieve back-to-back clean sheets and only allowed three goals this season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was good for me after watching all last year, to get a better understanding of the play,â&#x20AC;? McKeown said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was working really hard all summer, putting that into action so I knew [Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d] be able to do it by myself on the field. It just built up my confidence, and I have confidence in the people in front of me.â&#x20AC;?

The No. 6 Long Beach State menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s water polo team will travel across town to Westwood and put its undefeated 4-0 record to the test against No. 1 Stanford, No. 3 UCLA and No. 9 Pepperdine.

LBSU head coach Gavin Arroyo opened his eighth season after his team outscored its opponents [Air Force, La Verne, Loyola Marymount and Pomona-Pitzer] by at least half, a total of 47 points more, at the Triton Invitational last weekend.

Eleven different 49ers scored in the 17-6 win against Pomona-Pitzer,

and 12 different players scored in the 22-7 blowout against La Verne. None of those teams were Mountain Pacific Sports Federation teams. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For us, opening weekend is about getting the kinks out and seeing guys play,â&#x20AC;? Arroyo said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The good thing about the weekend was that we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t play down to the level of our opponents.â&#x20AC;?

Facing top-ranked Stanford, UCLA and Pepperdine this weekend, the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Niners will get their first true test of the young season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They [Stanford and UCLA] are the benchmark,â&#x20AC;? Arroyo said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be good to see how we size up against them.â&#x20AC;?

Arroyo said that this weekend will be a great â&#x20AC;&#x153;magnifying glassâ&#x20AC;? situation for the team to assess the strengths and weaknesses this week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They expose your weaknesses because every time you make a mistake, you pay for it,â&#x20AC;? Arroyo said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all about gauging to see if we can hang with them.â&#x20AC;?

The ultimate goal for the 49ers is to defeat the top-four ranked teams in the nation - Stanford, USC, UCLA and California.

With 11 returned juniors and seniors, LBSU is a veteran team loaded with experience.

One of those returners is 6â&#x20AC;&#x2122;11 center Dan Matilus from Milford, Ohio, who scored a total of nine goals last weekend. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For our younger guys, the older guys set the bar,â&#x20AC;? Arroyo said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Matilus is a role model â&#x20AC;Śbecause he has a lot of tenacity to compete. He redshirted his junior year and had to work hard to get where he is.â&#x20AC;?

The Beach will travel to Claremont to play two Division III schools (Claremont-Mudd-Scripps and Whittier) in the Inland Empire Tournament Sunday.

For the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Niners, this weekend will be all about getting as much experience as possible; Arroyo said he believes this is one of the most talented teams heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ever had.

name out nationally.

The team was second in the NSCAA West Region Poll last week, the highest regional ranking since 2012. They then climbed into the No. 23 spot in a national poll that same week.

Earlier last week, junior Melanie Fox earned the Big West Defensive Player

of the Week while freshman forward Ashley Gonzales was named Big West Offensive Player of the Week for the second consecutive week.

The 49ers will be facing BYU Saturday at 6 p.m. and get to take on Wake Forest Monday at 5:30 p.m. on George Allen Field.

Freshman forward Ashley Gonzales was named Big West Offensive Player of the Week for the second consecutive week after she scored two goals last Sunday in the win against Cal State Bakersfield.

The Chino Hills grad leads both her team and the Big West with four goals that were made in the last six games.

Aside from being an offensive force, she is also a playmaker, ranking third in conference with two assists.

$VKHO\ *RQ]DOHV Head coach Mauricio Ingrassia said he thinks sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll improve as she continues to adjust to the college game. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She shot a few times [and is] adding more to her repertoire,â&#x20AC;? Ingrassia said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s understanding thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more space than in a youth gameâ&#x20AC;Ś It might feel like sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rushed because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the college game, but she really isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. She just needs to calm down inside the box and just be aware of whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s happening.â&#x20AC;?
