I'm not sure if it matters, but the NFLPA did not agree to the portion of the CBA that contains the DV stuff. That was added later by Goodell and the NFL owners after the Ray Rice scandal. The NFLPA wanted to negotiate, but they were denied.
Based on the judge's 22 page written conclusion. I hit the bulls-eye in my assessment. No mention of anything on the CBA or the infraction claimed, but 100% bulls-eye in naming the fairness involved in making that decision one the catalyst in the decision.
