@SportsLawGuy
NFL-Vilma's witnesses today were irrelevant. Court has no power to decide case on merits, so their opinion on existence of bounty irrelevant

"Professor Burbank" - no wonder he made the decisions he made.

As a Professor he "lives" in a theoretical world.

Not an instult to higher education, but there are some professors I wouldn't let make a decision about the color shirt I should wear tomorrow.

UPDATED - NFL CLOSING ARGUMENTS

@rjonesTP
Kessler tears off a note and hurries up to Ginsberg. Real-time legal strategizing.
NFL BROKEN RECORD DEFENSE:

@SportsLawGuy
NFL-Vilma could have called today's witnesses at appeal before RG. Because chose not to,failed to exhaust remedies &case should be dismissed
@rjonesTP
Levy: There was never an effort made to contact witnesses to testify in front of Goodell
@SportsLawGuy
NFL also arguing that Norris LGA prevents court from granting injunction here (as NFL writers have lockout PTSD flashbacks)
PTSD = Post Traumatic Stress Disorder - comment from the Tulane Law Professor.

@JohnDeShazier
NFL hammering point that Vilma didn't present witnesses at appeal and arbitration and appeal process is collectively bargained
@SportsLawGuy
Summing up part of NFL argument- judge may disagree with commish's decison&process,but as matter of law,she doesn't have power to change it

After NFL closing arguments...

@SportsLawGuy
Judge again suggests that this seems like something that commish perhaps didn't have jurisdiction to hear, "but maybe I can't get to that"

GINSBURG BACK UP

@SportsLawGuy
Vilma's lawyer back up, repeating argument that RG violated CBA and abused his powers.
@rjonesTP
Ginsberg: Even if judge can't rule that Goodell was wrong, he did get it wrong. There has to be some kind of legal remedy
