Discipline in the Leaque - does the NFLPA fight every possible decision?

I think a DUI or disorderly conduct arrest with a police report, mug shot, breath test and witnesses is a little bit different from a supposed "bounty" or "pay for injure program" for which there is no clear evidence, or there is shifting morphing evidence, or a bunch of hearsay and guesses and assumptions trotted out as hard evidence, because it sounds good in a sound byte, and then the "evidence" doesn't get shown AT ALL to the players who are disciplined...big difference there. One situation as the union you represent ALL the players best by fighting tooth and nail for the process, the other situation like these you just want to make sure the player gets a fair hearing and has support while he is having personal difficulties and going through a rough patch.
