The name Ray Rice was virtually inescapable today as headlines flooded the net about the running back’s unceremonious dismissal from the NFL following horrific footage of him attacking his wife in an elevator.
The story was, to some degree, old news, but today’s newly surfaced footage not only brought the story back to life, but also brought with it an indefinite end to Rice’s roll with the Baltimore Ravens team that brought him fame. Scoring a weigh-in from everyone to celebrities and many-a-social media user, one commenter’s criticism earned him a considerable backlash – Columbus Short.
Fans may recall that Short, former star of ABC’s hit series ‘Scandal,’ was under investigation himself for allegedly choking and allegedly threatening to kill his wife. A report that would later lead to his dismissal from the Kerry Washington-led series.
Now, is the singer/dancer/actor singing another tune?
