Mac Engel... "Pacman may still faces supension for the first 2 regular season games.

[DaBoys4Life]

So folks applaud when he suspends guys but then complain when it is one of our guys.

Hypocrite much?

suspended for a year his did his time so let the man play again. Thats like you going to jail for 6 months aind them just adding 2 more months for the heck of it.

 

[Funxva]

I think what really irked me about the whole SpyGate scandal was the fact that they took away the Patriots pick in the first round, but they still received the higher pick from Miami (I think) which basically negated the penalty.

It was a complete joke to me. Cheating by a Head Coach is huge. I don't know if Belichick should have been suspended for the season, but I do feel that he should have at least been made to compensate the teams that he cheated against in some fashion.

He was not suspended for a year. He's currently suspended indefinitely from the NFL. The league office would review this after 1 year but offically he was never suspended for 1 year it was indefinitely

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

I'm going to hold off judgement on the Pacman issue until he actually applies for reinstatement.

Red flags have been raised simply from the fact that he hasn't applied for reinstatement. Perhaps he's holding off opening the can of worms for as long as possible?

 

[AbeBeta]

I'm glad the criminal justice system doesn't work this way. Just imagine getting a jail sentence, serving the entire sentence, then the prosecutor coming in and saying, "Well, I think we'll add a few more months to that sentence."

Goodell is a joke.

Actually, this is more like a parole hearing wherein the parolee can be denied or not. There is no guarantee of reinstatement.

 

[theogt]

Actually, this is more like a parole hearing wherein the parolee can be denied or not. There is no guarantee of reinstatement.

Actually, it's not like that at all. The sentence was given. And served.

The fact that Goodell reserves the right to extend it, for no reason, IS WHAT IS RIDICULOUS.

No, that's like the guy being eligible for parole in 6 months and that decision based on his behavior during his time served.

 

[theogt]

No, that's like the guy being eligible for parole in 6 months and that decision based on his behavior during his time served.

Except parole is for early release. Here, he's not being reinstated early. He's only asking to be reinstated at the time he was originally told he could be reinstated -- after his 1 year suspension.

So you are saying he's met all the conditions for reinstatement?

Jones' suspension carries the following conditions:

• He must have no more run-ins with law enforcement.

• He must comply with all required counseling, education and treatment assigned by the NFL or the judicial system.

• He must obey the restrictions that have been agreed to by him and the Titans.

• He may not be at the Titans' facility through May 31 and may not participate in any practices or workouts during his suspension. Starting June 1, he must visit the team facility once per week to meet with the team's player development director. Also, beginning June 1, he is permitted to spend one day a week at the team facility for conditioning, film study and other activities.

• In conjunction with the Titans, Jones must develop a structured program of community service or other activity. This program must be submitted to the NFL for approval.

No, he was told he could APPLY for reinstatement and that the suspension could end up being longer

What will happen to Charles Grant?.

According to all publicly available information, yes he's met all of his requirements.

THAT is what is ridiculous. You don't receive a 1 year jail sentence with the idea that at the end the prosecutor might come along and say it can be extended if he feels like it.

 

[DFWJC]

If he is never re-instated, we get a 4th......if he is re-instated and then suspended again, we get a 5th

I think that's correct...which means if he misses the 1st two (or more) games, but plays the rest of the season, the cowboys get no picks from Tenn.

ever heard of 25-life?

Who said he was suspended for 1 year? He wasn't he was suspended indefinitely. His case would be looked after 1 year.

Suspended Tennessee Titans cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones will file for reinstatement on Tuesday, according to a report published in the Dallas Morning News and Rotoworld. He's currently suspended indefinitely from the NFL, but has drawn interest from a number of teams anyway.

He's been linked to Dallas, New England, and Green Bay. The Titans boasted one of the best defenses in the NFL despite the loss of Jones.

 

[AbeBeta]

According to all publicly available information, yes he's met all of his requirements.

So you know and understand all of the terms of his suspension. Do tell....

 

[LatinMind]

He is a criminal who is constantly in trouble with the law. Not the law of the nfl but the law of the country.

I am sure if he was partly responsible for causing someone in your family to be paralyzed you would be signing a different tune.

Football is full of bad guys and that is why the commisoner is trying to fix that, I am not sure he can but he should be handing out suspensions.

That piece of garbage in st.louis should have been thrown out of the league for killing an innocent woman while driving his car drunk.

while he;s not model citizen, he was suspended for a yr. not supposed to be suspended for a yr, and then wait and see until he's ready to reinstate him. it shouldnt work that way. he did his suspension.

like people are saying. he's not consistant.

 

[Meat-O-Rama]

Ding ding ding! We have a winner.

 

[Sarge]

Is it just me or is anybody else getting sick of Goodell??

It's not just you.........
