The rambling of the report and the dismissal of everything as being circumstantial, along with the empty "more probable than not" line seems like their way of pretending to be impartial while not really doing anything to the Patriots. I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but the relationship between Goodell and Kraft is known, and I have never been given a reason to NOT question Roger's credibility... Just my opinion though.

Either way, I agree that he will screw it all up. That much is a given.

Yeah, I think we're basically on the same page and it's just semantics,

. I just lose interest when I see statements like this coming from the NFL's "Investigative Report Concerning Footballs Used During the AFC Championship Game on January 18, 2015": "Based on the evidence, it also is our view that it is more probable than not that Tom Brady was at least generally aware of the inappropriate activities of [two New England employees] involving the release of air from Patriots game balls,". http://sports.yahoo.com/news/tom-bra...223250553.html .

I mean, huh? "More than probable"? "Generally aware"? IDK, I'm "generally aware" of about 50% of the inappropriate activities in my vicinity, does that make me guilty of something? If you're gonna' do an investigation, do it right, don't speculate, come to a conclusion, not a theory,

. It seems to be a pattern with the NFL. The one similarity I do see with Bountygate/Spygate is that the actions in question are pretty common around the league but one party got caught & will be singled out. Will Roger be consistent when applying penalties? Probably not, he hasn't up to this point, why start now?

It's all very disappointing, IMO.
