Saints linebacker Jonathan Vilma's federal libel and slander lawsuit against NFL commissioner Roger Goodell has been assigned to Judge Ginger Berrigan. Berrigan, a Clinton appointee, has served on the bench in the Eastern District Court of Louisiana since her confirmation in 1994.
As of court closing Friday, there does not appear to have been any motion filed yet by the NFL in response to the lawsuit.

The lawsuit is targeted directly at RG, not the NFL. They are not even mentioned in the lawsuit. Why would they file a motion? |

This is pure speculation BTW. Personally I would want them to hang him out to dry. |

Be careful what we wish for..... Vengeance aside.
Vilma wins, isn't healthy enough to start the season, or is healthy enough to start the season but plays at the same level he has for the last 2 seasons... Vilma cap space never freed-up... Drew sits out because he cant be paid. "We cut off our nose to spite our face." |
