This month Ravens running back Ray Rice found himself apologizing after being given a two game suspension for an altercation with his fiance.  The incident has raised questions about whether the National Football League is doing enough to combat domestic violence and has led to criticism from several U.S. Senators. Delmarva Public Radio's Don Rush talked with East Coast Sports writer Mike Lurie about the issue as well as the growing chorus calling for changing the name of the Washington Redskins.
