The Chiefs front office will determine how much "work" he has to do. What the fans think means squat.

The timestamps on the video are from before midnight, and the assault allegedly happened at 1:30am. I'm confused why that's supposed to mean anything.

The club owner saying that he's gone through the tape and hasn't seen an assault, and doesn't believe one actually happened, is pretty big news, don't you think?
[Reply]

Okay but we were talking about fans needing to edit posts in this thread to walk back their anti-Rashee takes. I don't believe the Chiefs front office will be involved in that.
[Reply]

Considering people didn't go back and edit posts saying that drafting Mahomes was a huge mistake, I doubt it'll happen here.
[Reply]

Psssh, and all you overreacting losers wanted him cut...

*Quickly looks back to make sure I didn't post anything about cutting him*

Yeah, what a bunch of BABIES you all were! :-)

But why would he release video that's essentially irrelevant to the crime rather than the videos from went the crime supposedly happened? If he has video of Rice and his party inside the club and nothing happening, why not just release that?
[Reply]

Yeah, me too. That's what I was saying that you responded to with something about the Chiefs front office.

This kid needs to watch some Smokey The Bear shit and figure out where there’s smoke, there’s fire. If he doesn’t make enough cash to get away from this shit maybe he needs to take a different career path. He’s coming in hot to the fuck him zone.
[Reply]

Surely it's not just the owner trying to protect his business by saying nothing happened. He wants to keep these big money athletes coming to his place.

You said Rice has a lot of work to do. I said fans don't get to decide how much work he has to do.

Maybe, just maybe, the point that the guy never re-entered the club?

He clearly spoke to police about this, as it says the police told him that was the supposed victim in the video. I'm sure they would've told him when the assault supposedly occurred.

Besides, it's not just the owner. We also have two witnesses casting doubt that any assault occurred too. Maybe they're all covering for Rashee, but I don't give a fuck. That's still a good thing :-)

I'm not saying it's a bad thing. It just doesn't really move the needle for me. If there were Instagram DMs, the cops have already seen them. If the guy was punched in the face, the hospital has a record of it. The photographer's cell phone likely has location history that will tell if he went back or not.

Again, if he had surveillance video of the time period that this supposedly happened, I'm interested. I'm not particularly interested in his opinions, and two witnesses out of hundreds at the club that night aren't very compelling either.

It's called "plausible deniability." All we want as fans is to feel like we're not obviously rooting for some sociopath. If that takes some lies and subterfuge, whatever. I'm not the authorities or Goodell and won't pretend to know more than they do.
[Reply]

I don't know if you caught my edit but:

That seems to imply that he never came back in the club again.

And again, it is obvious that he's already spoken to police. Either Rashee is likely innocent, or this guy is covering for him. That's a good thing either way.
