Actual quote from Ray Lewis on NFL Countdown today regarding the Ravens. "There are some things you can cover up, and some things you can't."

Yeah, Ray probably should have just not commented.

That is hilarious.

Makes me look at Rice in a different light as well. The report showed that he was very remorseful for What happened and immediately sought treatment for his issues

Oh come on, he sought treatment only as a means to perpetuate the cover up at the advice of his legal counsel. That doesn't quite qualify as remorse.

The Ravens also consulted frequently with Rice's Philadelphia defense attorney, Michael J. Diamondstein, who in early April had obtained a copy of the inside-elevator video and told Cass: "It's f---ing horrible." Cass did not request a copy of the video from Diamondstein but instead began urging Rice's legal team to get Rice accepted into a pretrial intervention program after being told some of the program's benefits. Among them: It would keep the inside-elevator video from becoming public.

This is even more damning, hardly remorseful:

Diamondstein received his marching orders from Rice: "Keep me out of jail, and keep my bosses happy." By midday Wednesday, Feb. 19, the lawyer had worked out a plea deal with a local prosecutor in Atlantic City municipal court: Rice would enter counseling and if there were no other incidents involving him within 90 days, the case would be dismissed. The inside-elevator surveillance video would not be released. But that was the day TMZ released the outside-elevator video.

So we're just going to ignore him breaking down in front of his friend/trainer...talking to the HS kids. Any man in trouble with the law is going to take steps to help his case. What he displayed privately shows he was genuine in his remorse.

Heard on the radio that the Ravens owner said this report was full of inaccuracies in a presser today.
