The Facts:
Wearing a dark pinstriped suit, white shirt and plum tie, Marshall sat on the griddle that was an ESPN show this morning morning. ESPN's "Outside The Lines" had just finished a report that rehashed his domestic violence incidents with his former girlfriend Rasheeda Watley. "I would like to say again, I never put my hand on Rasheeda Watley," Marshall said.

The segment reviewed Marshall's numerous police-related incidents with Watley, who said she had first become his girlfriend 12 years ago, when they were both 13 years old. As the Post notes, the report portrayed Watley as the victim of domestic violence and Marshall as an abuser. While Watley and her parents were thoroughly questioned about the details of the domestic incidents, ESPN did not ask them about two attorney-drafted letters that sought $500,000 from Marshall in one and $100,000 for the other. "It's evident that this is clearly about money," Marshall said while admitting the incidents were a problem: "Me being in the NFL there's a certain image I have to protect."
