Apparently, it takes seeing the act of a man knocking a woman out cold to elicit action. A day after TMZ released the surveillance footage of Ray Rice punching his soon-to-be wife Janay Palmer in the face, Rice has been cut by the Ravens and suspended indefinitely by the league that originally felt two games was a sufficient punishment.
The Ravens have also announced a jersey-exchange program, Baltimore-area Dick's Sporting Goods are clearing Rice jerseys off the shelf, EASports will erase Rice from existence in Madden NFL 15, and now Nike has reportedly terminated its endorsement deal with the former running back.
