Partner Irwin Raij appeared live on the segment, “Did Roger Goodell Drop the Ball with Managing the Ray Rice Scandal,” for Fox Business’ “Opening Bell with Maria Bartiromo” on September 15, 2014. Raij discussed the impact of the Ray Rice scandal on the National Football League and the Baltimore Ravens franchise. Raij believes fans and sponsors view the situation differently, saying it seems that for now the public and the business community are willing to punish a team or a league for bad acts of an owner more than for bad acts over an employee or player. He said this likely stems from the belief that a league has broader discretion and control over an owner than a player.
