EOC 9: Sexual Harrasment in NFL

Believe this or not! but being part of the NFL is like you are practically a celebrity, and for the NFL is say, ""they had"no knowledge" of anyone in its offices receiving a copy of the now infamous Ray Rice video in April, as a law enforcement official claimed in a report the Associated Press published Wednesday." Is a lie because, if Rice is part of this team, not only will the NFL try and cover the tracks, but the HR department will try to make them look good and keep them safe. So for the fact that the NFL Coach, says he had no idea of the second video is all a LIE! because they literally have to know everything that goes on with their players, just in case something like this happens. "Rice had been charged with felony aggravated assault in the case, but in May he was accepted into a pretrial intervention program that allowed him to avoid jail time and could lead to the charge being purged from his record. A prominent New Jersey lawmaker called Tuesday for that decision to be reviewed" Now, lets think about this in an HR perspective... should the NFL suspend Rice indefinitely, even when this occasion happened during the time of his "personal life"? I can go on both sides of this, yes and no. Yes I feel the NFL should do more then just suspend him from the Ravens, because within his contract, Rice represents the Ravens, and any kind of altercations, will and can effect their position at the Ravens. and then I say no, because it was on his personal time, and what he does he does, so he shouldn't be punished when it comes with his career. "The first thing he [Rice] said is, 'She's intoxicated. She drank too much. I'm just trying to get her to." Excuses, HR should not protect him but the views of the NFL, because it will reflect on the Ravens more if they keep him then if they let him go.
