Tommy Boy's Suspension Reinstated
Part of me is hapoy because I can't stand how the Patriots always get the breaks.
On the other hand, I hate that the court ruled in favor of Goodell. Tom Brady's four-game suspension reinstated - NFL.com Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk |

Re: Tommy Boy's Suspension Reinstated
I don't have a problem with that. WE all got pissed when the bountygate penalties were handed down and rightfully so. They were much to harsh. I know the first reaction may be one of distain for Goodell making it so hard on us but giving the Patriots a slap on the wrist so to speak. It is easy to say since we got treated harshly everyone should, but I think there is something to be said for a man who learns from his mistake and corrects it.
I cant fault him for this. It is a pretty harsh penalty all things considered. He is suspending arguably the best QB of all time for 4 games. That sends a message. Especially seeing how tight he and the Patriots are. |

Re: Tommy Boy's Suspension Reinstated
3 of the Pats 1st 4 games are against AFC opponents w/2 division games, Dolphins and Bills and a conference game, (@ Texans Thursday night).
Without Brady they could start the season with a losing record. |

Re: Tommy Boy's Suspension Reinstated
Regardless the outcome; Goodhell has way too much power. Judge, Jury, and Executioner, so to speak.
Not allowing him to have anything to do with the appeal would be a great start... |

Re: Tommy Boy's Suspension Reinstated
I know it's cliche at this point, but didn't the players allow this to continue based on the current collective bargaining agreement?

Re: Tommy Boy's Suspension Reinstated
This decision was about Goodell having the power to suspend, not necessarily the circumstances of deflating the balls.
Its a loss for those that feel Goodell has too much power. |

Re: Tommy Boy's Suspension Reinstated
Maybe now they will get it out of the news and we can all move on.
