Well of course he does was my first reaction as well. Thinking about it though, those guys really did give the Kommish a way out by not following the proceedures. I think they would've backed his asshatedness into much more of a corner had they done the meet and greet thing with him. Then sued the scowl right off his face.

Halo

I still think the facts of how the "proceedings" leading to the decision are still in question. The NFL spread rumors in the media that the players never responded to their investigation, the players said publicly they were never asked to meet with the NFL.

Goodell says no one called witnesses, but neither Gregg Williams nor Sean Payton are allowed to be involved or they face further repercussions from the league.

Goodell says no one presented any evidence in the appeals, but the NFL NEVER fully presented any evidence to the players UNTIL THE APPEAL, and were late at that doing it the day of the appeal.

Best part is in a court of law Goodell will be on trial along with is big fat fugly mouth!!! In fact, this "memo" from Goodell is another power play. He didn't just say the players were denied, he has to go ALL OUT in the media to slam them.

I wonder how much money Vilma will get out of this?

Oh and I'm sorry poor New York lovin haters of the evil Bountygate.... but Vilma will have an injunction to play this season. I guess it's DOUBLE DOWN here BABY!
