Those items may require proof of intent or action.

Conduct detrimental - well that could be a fart on national TV.

Essentially Goodell called in Gregg Williams who pinned all this on Vilma. Sworn testimony is different than a prepared, signed "statement" so Goodell needed more assurances himself.

Goodell has an out. If Vilma's fellow linebackers give testimony that counters Gregg Williams testimony and Vilma can prove 10k never left his account, it could make Williams look like he lied under oath. Goodell can turn it back on Williams, that he went to war on faulty evidence.

Consider Williams may have sold his soul for the chance to ever return to coaching in the NFL... he may have said ANYTHING.

I'm thinking the plot thickens.

I'm thinking a good lawyer can make Williams look like a needy crackhead on the stand.

Re: Have we forgotten? Monday... Vilma Day!

I am a big fan of Jon Vilma and have huge respect for him and how he has handled this whole f'in cluster. This whole thing is just rank and stinks of something much bigger, IMHO

Jonathan Vilma‏@JonVilma51

The nfl has 1 affidavit saying i did it. I have NINE saying i didnt. Do the math. Hush haters.

How about a sworn affidavit that he actually paid someone 10k for a Farve hit?
