Thats a fact. Reporter one person not buying it, reporter rob maudy. He said he heard a voicemails that confirms a dvd of the video was received at nfl headquarters in new york april 9th, five months ago. It came from a number within the league office. The voicemail is from an unidentified woman saying that she received the video, thanking the Law Enforcement official for sending it and telling him hes right, its terrible. The nfl says they arent aware of this and theyll look into it, but many are looking to goodell to resign. The National Organization for women and lawmakers. If there is information that does come out that shows that he did know, that he had access i do think it puts at risk the current job that he has. And at risk is a potential 40 plus Million Dollar paycheck. Thats what goodell reportedly raked in in 2012. Speaking of money, the now paycheckless rice could stand to gain. Since the most recent damning video rice kicked to the curb finding out the commissioner may have seen the tape when doling out rices initial two game suspension punishment opens the door for rice to challenge the lawfulness of his new fate. Back to muellers investigation, new york giants owner john mara and Pittsburgh Steelers owner art rooney will oversee that investigation and that report will be made public. Well continue to follow this story, but thats the latest right now. Debra alfarone, back to you guys at m and d bank stadium. D m and d bank M T Bank M T Bank stadium. Reporter reading rusher of the year for five years in a row. Reporter the question on a lot of minds is what does this mean for the nfl as a whole . Yesterday i talked to james brown of cbs sports and put the question to him is this a watershed moment for the league in general . Look, while we can debate all day long what the league could have done better, how they should have gone about it, theres no question that as far as an issue in society we all need to be educated better to go about it and i can say this and i may be in the minority, no pun intended with respect to that, at least the commissioner has been open enough to acknowledge what he feels about it in terms of what has to happen, in terms of continuing education and thats whats happening. Reporter one more question. Is this the beginning of a real change and conversation that goes beyond whatever happened to any one player . Absolutely. And it should. Sports in general lab at the forefront of change in has been at the forefront of change in society whether it was with Jackie Robinson in baseball. We talked about being able to work effectively in diverse groups. Sports has led the way. So out of this im hoping to see the same kind of change and i think it will happen. Those of us on the periphery who will articulate that and put it in perspective, i welcome that opportunity, derek. Reporter always so great to talk to james issioner came before we knew about the a. P. Report about when or when he didnt see that videotape. So we will see how that plays out for him. Reporter its been so hard, too, for these analysts to talk about. Reporter theyre not that anxious to talk about this. They want to talk about football and who is going to win tonight, who has to win. Instead theyre talking about this disciplinary situation. Reporter the question now becomes whats the future for ray rice . Reporter lets get down to dave owens and Kristen Berset who are on the field with more on whats ahead tonight and what this game means. Reporter yeah, guys, we got some football to talk about, a pretty big game tonight. What a great game for cbs to pick to kick off thursday night football. Reporter schedulemakers knew what they were doing, week 2 ravens steelers, it doesnt get any bigger than this. Reporter two arrive rivals tonight, ravens trying to avoid going 02, but aside from the distractions theyve had to deal with all week from their fallen teammate, this has been a short week. This is the ravens second game in five days and its another division opponent and like i said, they lost the first one trying to avoid goine ravens and steelers are no stranger to playing in primetime. They played on the 10th anniversary of september 11th like theyre doing tonight for the 13th. This is a rivalry with a deep rooted hatred among fans but respect among the players. Hatred is a very strong word, but it seems fitting, but its a lot of respect going there because the two teams are so similar, but we plan on displaying our thoughts of each other come thursday. Reporter ive been up in owings mills with the team all week and theyre saying were professionals, got to do our job. Reporter on the other end of the spectrum, you talk about the steelers, they come in here total opposite end of the spectrum. They won last week. The locker room has been relatively drama free. Whats happening in baltimore isnt affecting how pittsburgh feels about the game on the field. They expect this to be classic steelers ravens. Theyre baltimore. Were pittsburgh. We understand what that means. Were excited about learning more about ourselves in the midst of that challenge in a hostile environment. For a football fan i think you got to love it because its usually close, low scoring, two very like minded teams and its physical as anything ive ever played in. Reporter this is a special rivalry. Coming up a bit later ill give the folks at home some Statistical Analysis just how special this rivalry is. Of course, Christine Brennan from usa today will join us. Shes always great. Reporter addle plenty to talk about her. Well see always plenty to talk about with her. Well see you back in a little bit. Reporter i got to tell you the time ive been to this park and even in the preseason fans you talk to dont care so much about winning the super bowl as much as the first thing they say is we want to beat the steelers. We hate the steelers. Reporter and the fans have already been here tailgating. We got here around 2 00 this afternoon. Reporter there was a few folks lining up outside in the heat. Reporter mola lenghi is outside now with some of the fans outside the stadium. Reporter its still early. I know you saw some fans out there, still a lot of empty parking spots in the parking lot. I heard you reference the cheerleaders. Feel free to point them in our direct. Its still lonely out here. Fans are starting to set up, but you can rest assured theyre on National Television tonight playing their biggest rival, the steelers. I think its a safe bet this house will be packed tonight. The tailgaters are setting up, sparking up their grills, bottle cans being popped off. Obviously the ongoing ray rice story is a topic of conversation amongst the fans. You guys talked about it, but its certainly not the fans focus. They want to talk about football and beating the steelers, not much else. The steelers fans travel well, one of the bigger fan bases in the league. Theyre all over the country. So you can expect a splattering of black and yellow in the sea of purple and black tonight. I come to watch my steeler beat up some ravens tonight steelers beat up on some ravens tonight. Reporter you feel safe . Very safe. Reporter how on earth does this work . How do you make this work . Its interesting. We have fun with it. Reporter did you know this going into the relationship . We did and we talked about it on a constant basis, but it all works. Reporter is that a part of the traction here . No. Definitely not the attraction here . No. Definitely not. Reporter one of your lesser qualities. Yeah. I tolerate it. Its a great rivalry, most exciting game of the year especially thursday night on primetime. Here we are, baby. Lets go. Reporter how about that couple . A little rivalry doesnt stop their love. We talked to them. The husband said it makes for interesting sundays. It will probably make for an interesting ride home because unless this thing ends in a tie, somebody will be pretty upset tonight. Reporter im just admiring the bravery of the guy in the steeler jersey walking into m t bank tonight. Hes ready to cheer for his team. You got to give it to him. Reporter i like the guy with the purple mohawk, mola. Reporter some of us dont have any mohawk material left. Reporter you could if you tried. Reporter lets take it back in the studio to lesli foster. Well pivot from the celebratory tone where you are to something very serious. Major concerns and Montgomery County police need you to look at these pictures here. This missing mom and her two Young Children are still missing, 2yearold jacob, 3 yearold sarah and their mom Catherine Hoggle, all of clarkbsurg were last seen 72 hours ago and investigators are checking locations all across germantown. Wusa9 Stephanie Ramirez joins us live from Police Headquarters with the latest. What are you hearing . Reporter we now know from Court Documents used to obtain that warrant against Catherine Hoggle. She was just talking with her mother and then leaving the germantown chickfila and this is why the police are so concerned about the childrens health. We know, catherine, this is not you and what you do. You were the first of four kids to give me a chance to be soccer coach, probably was never good at it. Reporter randy hoggle shared personal memories on camera in hopes his daughter will see this, 27yearold Catherine Hoggle missing since monday and is the only person who knows the whereabouts of her two children, 3yearold sarah and 2yearold jacob hoggle, their grand father wanting to see the two reunited with their brother clint. You and troy have given me a chance to have clint on the soccer team. Next week were going to work on going towards the right goal, but we want sarah and jacob to have those same kind of opportunities. Reporter sarah and jacob who havent been seen by any surveillance camera or by any witness since they were last seen by catherine.

So log on. Take a look. Help us bring them home. We are just Getting Started here on wusa9 news at 5 00. Reporter 13 years after 9 11 one familys journey from anger and pain, to healing and hope. Im bruce leshan, how the family survived the loss of their daughter. Im meteorologist topper shutt. Yellow alert continues tonight. Heres your game on forecast for thursday night football. Tailgating showers are still possible, but i think it will be dry for the kickoff, breezy and cooler late, game Time Temperature 72 to 80. Were counting down to kickoff for thursday night football. Lets head back to M T Bank Stadium where Derek Mcginty is ready to take us behind the scenes getting ready for tonights big game. Reporter what do you think would happen if i unplugged this . Probably nothing good. Dont worry. Well show you how it from new york city to the pentagon to the shanksville victims of the september 11th terrorist attacks were remembered today. President obama participated in a wreath laying ceremony at the pentagon memorial and relatives of the brave passengers aboard united flight 93 gathered at the crash site in pennsylvania. A ceremony at the World Trade Center in manhattan marked the exact moment when the terrorist attacks began 13 years ago. We love you. We miss you and not a day goes by that we dont think of you. The worst word i ever heard all the time is closure. There is no such thing as closure. Some families observe the 9 11 anniversary in a more intimate way. They gathered at a firehouse in manhattan that lost 15 members on that terrible day. Nearly 3,000 people died in the 9 11 terrorist attacks including 343 firefighters at the World Trade Center site. 13 years after asia cutham was killed on a plane the 9 11 hijackers flew into the pentagon, her parents have finally found some measure of peace with her death and they are sharing that journey from grief to hope in a new book called asias new wings. Bruce leshan reports on the couples quest to help others achieve the dreams of their lost 11yearold daughter. To me shes my baby. Shes my daughter. Reporter at first michelle cotham could not even summon the courage to visit the 9 11 memorial. Her baby, her bubbly 11year old was among the youngest victims on the plane the terrorists crashed into the pentagon. There was an actual body and that she was not burned. She was not broken. She was whole and if she had just one smudge of dirt on her face. Reporter how was that possible . Through whom we serve, thats how its possible. Reporter the cothams channeled their grief into a Scholarship Fund and they have just celebrated the graduation of their first scholar with a law degree. I think i cried more than their parents. I dont know. Me and her father probably cried the most. Reporter in asias memory the cothams say so far they have handed out 85 scholarships in amounts ranging from 500 to 2,500 a year and now they are just out with a new book, asias new wings, the untold story of a young girl lost on 9 11. God bless you. God bless you. Reporter asia had big dreams. She was on her way to swim with the dolphins in california. She wanted to go to medical school to become a pediatrician. She did things in double time. Maybe she just knew she wasnt going to be here long. Reporter where do you think asia would be right now . Well, hopefully hopefully working, graduate from college and working. Reporter but every time a friend or a scholarship winner reaches a milestone asia never got a chance to reach, they celebrate. Through the Foundation Asia lives on. She lives on in the hopes and dreams of everybody who receives a scholarship and what they do with their education and what they do with their life asia lives on. Reporter at the pentagon memorial bruce leshan, wusa9. Wow. Tomorrow night the cothams are holding a Fundraising Concert for the Scholarship Program at new wfcmasmyrna Missionary Baptist Church in northeast d. C. Tickets are available at the door or on their website asiacotham. Com. Lets talk about thursday night football once again, break it down for you, 6 00 86. There could be showers, even a thunderstorm, then 82 at 8 00 and 78 by 10 00. It will be dry for kickoff at 8 25. You can watch it here. Lets start with a live look outside, our live michael and son weather cam, still 90, dew point pretty high, almost 70. So its a little bit hot for this time of year, sticky, too. Heres the radar over the past two hours, not a lot of activity, but it has increased a bit in the last hour especially up near hagerstown. Well track that storm and a lot of showers and storms beginning to fire in fauquier and Prince William county. Some of those are on the heavy side he is especially around warrenton. This is the one just northwest of frederick that could make it to M T Bank Stadium, doesnt look heavy, headed toward mount airy in the next few minutes by 7 12. By far and away, this is the heaviest activity headed towards nokesville at 5 19, daly city ataz 6 45. Dont see much lightning with it or wind, but thats pretty heavy rainfall and these storms will become heavier as they move south and east, talked about this last night. The best chance for widespread activity and certainly heavy activity will be south and east of town, Southern Maryland, charles county, st. Marys county. Some showers and storms tonight, best chances again south of town. Dry for the kickoff, cooler late in the game and much cooler to end the week tomorrow. Heres a look at futurecast. 6 00 tonight there are the showers right around M T Bank Stadium, nothing heavy, just shades of green, which is light, but tailgaters may have some showers. By 8 00 showers are gone. Clouds are in place, but theyre gone and by 10 00 70s up into baltimore and most of the heavy activity is across the bay or into Southern Maryland and the northern neck. By midnight temperatures in the 60s and clearing skies. You leave the stadium, youll see a little bit of the stars tonight. By Early Morning a light jacket, upper 50s and low 60s. How about that . Next seven days, you go to the terps game saturday, prepare for light rain and showers. Washington hosts jaguars. They should be fine, upper 70s. Warmer monday, showers monday night and turning cool tuesday, wednesday and thursday next week. We are all pumped up for thursday night football, the ravens taking on the steelers tonight. Dave and kristen break it down with you as oh, the young. Their energy seems like an unlimited resource we sometimes wish would run out, at least for a moment.

For more tips, go to novec. Com. Novec helping you save. Hey, im jan jeffcoat along with Derek Mcginty here at M T Bank Stadium in baltimore, ravens taking on the steelers. You can see the countdown clock here on the lefthand side of your screen. Its exciting, two hours away. Reporter its very exciting. Lets get the game broken down by some experts. Weve got dave. Weve got kristen and a special guest. Hey, folks. Reporter hey, guys, yeah, big game tonight. Usa todays Christine Brennan joining us, as always, for the ravens and steelers, big game tonight. Reporter absolutely. Youve got the ravens have already lost a game. The steelers have already won a game. This is one of the great rivalries in the nfl and frankly in sports. Its so early in the season and the first thursday night game and we know all the other issues involved with this. It really is something. Im excited. I kind of imagine this thing is going to be a classic. You have that sense about it and lets hope it is because its so important for both teams. Reporter you talk about other issues. Obviously theres a lot of stuff going on. Well get to the ray rice stuff a bit later, but weve seen down the road how things outside the locker room can undermine a season with the redskins. If the ravens lose tonight, im interested in your perspective. Could this thing unravel on the ravens . You go 02 and get that negative energy surrounding your locker room with all the stuff going on. Reporter i think it could. It sounds silly to say it could go two ways, of course, it could, but a loss tonight and you just wonder what the locker room is going to be like. Everything that has gone on the last few weeks comes to bear and is laid on and they deal with those layers. Flip side, weve seen it before with teams. They rally around it and say everyone is out to get us. Were going to show you and they play one of their best games. Thats a possibility as well. Reporter you talked about this rivalry, but i think were all in agreement tonight will be more of a classic. The atmosphere is always so intense and amped up anyway for a ravens steelers rivalry, but so much more tonight. Reporter everyone who is watching now spread the story. Theyve seen your report and all of our reporting. They know whats at stake. So we go from this National Conversation thats so important about the issue of Domestic Violence to a Football Game and it all kind of crystalizes on this field in a couple hour. Rarely does a story kind of meet its puctuation mark like this so quickly after the news hits. I think thats what were talking about tonight. Reporter bigger than football. Reporter without a doubt. Thats obviously why were here and why people will be watching. Reporter well have more from christine coming up later in our newscast talking about the keys for tonight. Reporter thanks, guys. Didnt we warn you . Were blowing the lid off the word Team Coverage and theres a lot more where that came from. Check this out. Reporter im Megan Alexander here in baltimore for the big cbs thursday night football kickoff, plus fans q÷ welcome back. Im Derek Mcginty alongside jan jeffcoat. We are live at M T Bank Stadium and as you can see from our countdown clock, game coverage begins about two hours from now. Folks are getting excited because remember, this is a classic showdown, steelers, raven. The two teams dont like each other and the fans really want to win. Reporter fans getting really pumped up because this is the first thursday night Football Game here on cbs. Megan alexander is on the field with more on that. Reporter some football fans arrived early to get the food on the grill before the big crowds. We got a bus thats going to show up, purple camoflauge bus, a dj and about 100 some of our closest friends. Reporter luis jimenez came all the way from los angeles. Looking forward to tonights game, beat those pesky steelers. Reporter roy long lived in baltimore but loves the steelers. We can go 20. They can go 0 2. Reporter while cbs sports and the nfl network are promising thursday night football will be bigger and better than ever, the still unfolding ray rice scandal hangs over tonights game. The nfl suspended the former raven star indefinitely after video surfaced of him knocking out his future wife in a hotel elevator. Seems like the guy thats made a bad decision thats obviously really affected his life moving forward. Team had to do what they had to do. The league had to do what they had to do. It is what it is. Reporter cbs sports announcer jail brown told us the controversy is part of life james brown told us the controversy is part of life and should not overshadow the game. There are plenty of fans who agree. Reporter a lot of fans just want to get over that and talk football now. A lot goes on behind the scenes. This is weeks in the making. Reporter this is a big deal because on sunday theres 10 or 12, however many games. This is one game tonight. Cbs goes all out to make this special. Yesterday i had a chance to look behind the scenes and let may not be a super bowl, but it sure does feel like it. Thursday night football, youre the only show on unto, baby, and everybody, all your peers show on town, baby, and everybody, all your peers and family members get to focus on you. Reporter and hall of Famer Deion Sanders knows a thing about putting on a show, but then again so does this executive vp ken agar who has been putting football on tv for some 45 years now. This is a big show. Its as big as a super bowl. Of course, the big difference is guess what . We got to move on to the next city the next week. Reporter yup, this traveling super bowllike circus including some 30 cameras, that fancy mobile set and 350 odd workers has to pack itself up and move to a new location just a few hours after the work is done at this one and that means these guys, they dont get a lot of time off. We work 24 7 seven days a week. It feels like that. Reporter because thats how it peoples when you and the crew have been peoples when you and the crew have been feels when you and the crew have been hammering all this together since early monday morning and friday morning you do it all over again somewhere else. Some of these technicians will see home the entire four months or so of nfl will see home one day a week maybe. Reporter but what about the men, the athletes who play the game . Some say three days just isnt enough time to recuperate from the pounding last sunday, but bill cowher who once coached the Pittsburgh Steelers to a super bowls is not one of those guys. We have a short week leading to it, but when thursday night comes, you dont think about that. I think the guys wish every game was on thursday because you dont want those extra practice days at all. You want to get it on and get it over with. Reporter spoken like a man who played till he was in his late 30s and probably didnt the woman those extra days of work, but its didnt want those extra days of work, but its thursday night football. Reporter we feel privileged to be among all of them and watch them set up. You can see the countdown clock on the lefthand side of your screen. Still to come. An incredible story next. Were headed back to baltimore where Kristen Berset caught up with former raven linebacker o. J. Brigan in the fight of his life and hoping to find a cure for als, what the yr in Fairfax County we had to cut a lot of waste. We consolidated offices. Started sharing printers. We can walk a few feet. Replaced computers, but kept the monitors. They still work fine. We even discovered that the phone company overcharged us by three Million Dollars i approve this message because congress doesnt need another right winger. They need someone who can balance a budget. Oh, and we definitely didnt need so many government studies. Wusa9 news is sponsored in part by your local toyota dealers. Hey, im jan jeffcoat along with Derek Mcginty on the first thursday night football here on cbs. Were so excited to be with you and all the fans here at M T Bank Stadium in baltimore. Ravens taking on the steelers, seeing the fans trickle in. It is an exciting night. Reporter a lot of electricity in the air. We tend to see the players as big, strong in vulnerable guys, but they are human beings suffering the same frailties that all of us suffer, only difference is sometimes a really bad break can be turned to advantage for a lot of other people. Dave owens and Kristen Berset have more on one such player who used to play for the ravens and is still very much a part of this organization. Reporter you could not have said that any better, derek. With all this ray rice mania we could use a feel good story and you have one for us. Reporter absolutely. You remember all those ice bucket challenges that overtook our social media feed. It did a lot to raise awareness for als, but it had a profound effect on one of our own. O. J. Brigance terrorized quarterbacks in the nfl. As a linebacker with the Baltimore Ravens he made the first tackle in their super bowl xxxv victory. The football field was his battlefield, but now o. J. Faces a different kind of enemy. In 2007 at age 37 o. J. Was diagnosed with als, more commonly known as lou gehrigs disease. He had lost his ability to walk and talk. He communicates through a computer with eye recognition software, but despite all that you will always find o. J. On the sideline of every ravens practice and every game. This strength that he has to get up every day will outweigh the strength in the weight room at any day at any time. What keeps me going every day despite my diagnosis is the mere fact that as god has allowed me to live and wake up to experience another day he has work for me to do. Reporter but his work extends beyond the football field reaching those fighting the same battle he is. Its what keeps that smile on his face. Lately that smile is sparkling brighter than ever. The recent ice bucket challenge phenomenon brought an unprecedented amount of attention to als. Im going to challenge three more people. Reporter celebrities, athlete and millions of everyday people poured ice water over their heads and shared it with the world. Never before has this disease seen such mainstream exposure. Reporter over a span of 20 days this summer the ice bucket challenge raised over 13 million for the als association. That number was just 1. 7 million last year. For the brigance brigade, an organization started by o. J. And his wife shanda in 2008 to help those impacted by als, theyve seen over a quarter Million Dollars come through their doors. I was like thank god, its a blessing because this is what weve been trying to do. My Work Productivity increased greatly because i must have watched hundreds of videos. I watched former classmates, teammates and long lost friends take the challenge and i was so honored. We would like to thank all of our family, friends and supporters. Though the phenomenon will end eventually, the memory of the cause will live on for years to come. The finances raised and new donors and the databases of als organizations will continue to help move us forward to finding a cure. That is extremely exciting to me. Reporter its what they all strive for, to find a cure. O. J. Was given three to five years to live which is a normal diagnosis for als. Its been six years and hes going strong as ever. We wish them the best. Thank him for taking the time to do that story for us. Everybody wants to know about the game time forecast. A couple light showers are just north of the stadium now. Were still confident by the time they kick it off at 8 25 should be dry, up there anyway. Lets start with that forecast. Again looking at some possible showers for the tailgaters, 86 at 6 00, a shower or thunderstorm still possible, but notice by 8 00 just some clouds, but its get into the 10 00 hour, breaks in the clouds and temperatures in the upper 70s. Things will improve, but some of the tailgaters will have some showers. Lets start with a live look outside, our live michael and son weather cam, 90, relatively humid at 50 , winds out of the south at 7. Radar ty quiet a couple hours ago, but now the atmosphere is pretty unstable especially right around d. C. And points south and east. Thats the best chance for heavy weather south and east of town, charles county, st. Marys county down into the northern neck. Well zoom in. This has just popped up in the last half hour. Thats a pretty big storm on the south side of the beltway in the northwest part of town and near Silver Spring headed two college park. This is still heavy activity around warrenton all pushing south and east. That will move across the beltway and head toward fort belvoir shortly. Well go up to M T Bank Stadium. Theres the stadium there. There is just a light shower north of the stadium. Again so far so good. Heaviest activity by far which is good news for the game is down in our area. Silver spring, this is 29, again on the south side of the beltway south on georgia avenue, 97, south on New Hampshire avenue. See the red . Thats very heavy rainfall about 1 inch per hour headed right toward college park over toward jones bridge lane and east west highway. You can see its encompassing a pretty good area. Dont see any lightning or hail, but this is a heavy storm. It will become a little heavier as it moves to the south and east. Well storm track it for you. Its moving essentially toward glenarden. It should be ed toward glenarden as we get into the 6 21 hour. So heavy rain with this storm, not seeing any wind. Dont cross a flooded street by car or by foot. Some showers and storms tone, best chances south of town tonight, best chances south of town, dry for the kickoff and cooler late tonight. This will usher in some cool air behind the front, much cooler end to the week. Temperatures could be 15, almost 20 degrees cooler next week. 8 00 tonight well stop the futurecast, near kickoff, just some clouds and notice all the heavy activity south of town down into Southern Maryland, calvert county, st. Marys county, Westmoreland County into the northern neck. Thats 10 00, 70s in baltimore, 80s still downtown and by midnight were in the 60s already and clearing skies out toward gaithersburg and leesburg, heavy Activity Still continuing across the bay and kind of lingers into Southern Maryland for a while. Look at this, 60s to start, light jacket maybe not a bad idea tomorrow morning for the kids, 67 at 11 00, 72 by 1 00 and again clouds will be slow to peel off tomorrow. Saturday for the terps light rain and showers, that could be our next yellow alert day, only 73, nice again sunday. The jaguars in town, should be in good shape, temperatures in the upper 70s, probably low 70s for kickoff. Warmer on monday, showers monday night, nice tuesday and wednesday and maybe a sprinkle on thursday. Well send it out to group up 95. Reporter hey, to. , back with Christine Brennan talking about the news thats taken over this week in the nfl, the ray rice incident. When you look at this Baltimore Ravens franchise, they have such a well respected reputation among the league and the fans. How does this incident affect their reputation . Reporter i think it could really hurt it. They are seen as a hallmark of one of the great franchises of the nfl and now this. Its terrible. The way they handled it was horrible, not seeing the second video. My question has been throughout what did people think the second video would look like if you saw the first video . What else could have happened in that elevator . What do we think Domestic Violence looks like . These are all questions being peppered at the ravens as they should be. The leadership blew it and theyll be answering questions for a long time. Reporter let me dovetail on that. The nfl and steve bisciotti, the ravens owner, said they didnt investigate this as much as they should have. Any other ceo, if something bad happens in your office and you dont investigate it, he or she gets fired. Why shouldnt these guys get fired here . Reporter thats a great question, especially with roger goodell. I have not yet personally said he should be fired. One of my reasons is if what he said wasnt true. In terms of suspensions, fines for everybody. Maybe they dont lose their jobs, but its such a black eye i guess one good thing is both the ravens people and goodell have said they blew it. Thats one positive development in the series of negative just horrible Decision Making from top leaders in sports. Reporter also with this moving forward, its really brought attention to how rampant actually Domestic Violence is in the nfl. What are you hoping to see this league do moving forward . Reporter right now theres ray mcdonald with the 49ers, Terrell Suggs will be on the field and the allegations by his wife is horrid and will the ravens maybe start to investigate suggs again because ray rice is gone, but there are others playing in the nfl now and they need to take care of that. Reporter i dont see how the league or the ravens can have credible moving forward unless they penalize the commissioner and the owner. Reporter the other thing sits a sixgame suspension thing is its a sixgame suspension. It looks pretty weak now. Reporter Christine Brennan, be back with us later, but for now back to lesli in the studio. Coming up at 6 00 take a good look at these pictures. Tonight a mother is on the run.
