But, the prosecution could only get a conviction on obstruction and, as Duchess pointed out, the two friends he testified against were acquitted.
It's too bad the Ravens sometimes get besmirched because of one player. If Lewis was complicit or guilty in those deaths, he'll probably mess up again like OJ did.
The problem is, Ray is the FACE of the franchise.
Yesterday's nonsensical display at mid-field after the game made me want to barf.
It's always been all about Ray.
What? You think maybe he's an egotistical drama king? No way...
I hear what you're saying and while I don't follow football as closely as the rest of you, I know that Lewis is essentially to the Ravens what Kobe Bryant is to the Lakers - "the face" as you called it.
No matter how excellent these star face athletes are, they can't pull it off without the commitment of their heads-down colleagues who keep their noses clean an often get overshadowed by the "faces" and what they do off the field/court. But, hell, they all make a damn fortune, so nothing to cry about...
