Roger Goodell has no credibility left

[LandryFan]

If the suspension stays four games I won't complain. Hardys better drop, ten seems crazy after sitting out all of last year.

Brady will end up with two games, NE's fine will be cut in half ($500K), and the draft picks will go from 1st and 4th to 2nd or 3rd and 5th/6th (or the 5th/6th will be dropped altogether). They will not likely reduce Hardy's suspension...that's my prediction, FWIW.

I'm just guessing but I bet the Patriots and Brady don't want this to go to court. In that situation the NFL can get Brady's phone records most likely, which I'm betting would make every one of their obfuscations look worse and even more flimsy then they do right now.

The next commish needs to be from the South. I'm tired of these east coast wise guys looking out for each other.

No, if the commissioner would be a southern man it would be a bad thing because every body know that Southern man, better keep your head
Don't forget what your good book said. And I dont relish the idea of halfing cornpone and moonshine for sale at games.
Those things are better left in farmers branch and other fine cities in Arizona and Alabama.

All hail Farmers Branch

If you had said Northeast NFL football you would have it just right. Those Northeast Big City Teams control the NFL.

Really just the Giants and Pats.

Roger Goodell has no credibility left ! Didn't know he had any to begin with !

I said much the same in an earlier post. Brady and New England are pushing the threat of a lawsuit hard but I do not think they're stupid enough to pursue it IF Brady truly had a part in the conspiracy.

Wherever the next commish is from, I hope integrity is his middle name. I'm sure there's a way for the league to have integrity and still make money.

Whenever money is involved, people are mesmerized by it. People will do anything for it, even kill. Money controls most people.

 

[Frozen700]

This is the man who's going to hear Brady's appeal?

I just hate how the Patriots can go scorched earth on the league yet still get this type of love from the commish but when Jerry consistently takes the classy high road, we still end up getting screwed left and right.

Hey man, it's how it is.

Personally I didn't think Brady should have been suspended in the 1st place.

 

[Zordon]

wow kraft just announced no appeal!

[Zordon]

my thread backfired.

 

[Longboysfan]

I still say kick him in his maraconi and cheeze.

 

[TellerMorrow34]

Wow.

I'm surprised that they will not appeal.

Does this mean that they're going to accept Brady's 4 game suspension as well?

 

[LittleD]

Really just the Giants and Pats.

You could add the Jets, Philthy & Pittsburg to that list as well.

Would be surprised if they changed the dollar fine, I imagine they laugh about amount like that behind closed doors.

 

[DallasEast]

Smart man.

That's enough for me to label them as guilty as sin.

Edit: Down south we call that nonsense for an appeal hooping-and-hollering for no good reason.

 

[mickswag]

Wow.

Probably not. Bet you Kraft agreed not to appeal with indication/agreement that Brady's suspension is reduced.

 

[mugsybows]

im thinking they dont appeal but its kinda known that because of this bradys appeal of the 4 games will be reduced. thats all i really care about
