Yeah they're pretty bad so thanks for bringing that up but Brady is clearly worse. Well I suppose Belicheck is mostly the spygate guy though all his players were complicit so take your pick. Definitely Brady with the balls though. Man it's hard to keep straight all these controvercies and caught red handed moments. You wann start defening the Saints too or are you backpeddling? |
Also, Ray Rice's suspension was overturned, as was Adrian Peterson's. So yeah, your knowledge of the NFL is really quite fragile. And no, this isn't a defense, it's more about Goodell and their Lawyers inability to adhere to the CBA and Labor Law (which is why they retooled the domestic abuse and PED's penalties shortly after getting destroyed in court). It's not about defending bountygate either, it's acknowledging the fact that the NFL abused it's authority. This case was only a shining example of how stupid Goodell and his cronies are. They had every opportunity to accept a 1 game settlement out of Brady, and they lost, because they're idiots and couldn't read the tea leaves.
As far as guilt? lol, most legal analysts who've viewed the Wells Report, the Wells Report in Context and the AEI Analysis see the NFL using adverse inferences wherever possible to come to a conclusion of 'more probable than not'. To say nothing of how badly the appeals transcripts damaged Goodell's credibility, but I'm sure you haven't read that either. It'd be tossed out of court without even a trial. That really should tell you something, but it does require a measure of impartiality, which is clear you are not viewing this case through.
Yeah, I'm a Pats fan, but, I'm certainly not above admitting someone broke the rules...if in fact the evidence is there to support it. The NFL's shit show, was evidence of nothing but their own incompetence.
So, any more claims I can demolish in a 3 second search on google?
