The NFL is a nonprofit trade association. Does Congress get involved in the personal lives of other trade association's employees or just the ones on TV with oodles of money? Is this a good use of their time and our money? We have a criminal justice system and the associations have their own watch dogs. I blogged about Ray Rice when it first came out, but the band wagon circus around it now is getting ridiculous. One sports caster was suspended for questioning why Janay Rice and other abused women stay with the man. Also, there are many men who are physically abused by women (or their male partners) but are afraid to speak out because of shame.
