9 A.M. Vilma Hearing

TXGSP · 08-10-2012, 11:03 AM

Appears judge is swayed, but wants to make sure of authority...

Judge stated in open court the process was unfair and "conduct detrimental" really questioned if it was nothing more that a way to circumvent other provisions in the CBA.

If this is pushed into a Salary-Cap violation by the statements and possible later ruling.

Does a Salary Cap violation allow suspensions of Team executives, coaches, or players? If not looks like EVERYONE could wind up back at work...

Don't get your hopes up; Roger will find a way to loophole himself in the right...

Not getting my hopes up at all. I am actually stunned that it has even gone this far. It's now more than a nuisance to Roger. They have to deal with this situation. It is now out of hand and everyday the scale is tipping in Vilma's favor.

Look, if the NFL thinks they will EVER walk out of this untouched, they're wrong.
If this goes to court, which I think the judge will do it, the discovery process alone will screw them.

Roger and the NFL's motives TODAY were exposed. The NFL admitted players are "prejudged."

Why should a player EVER go up to New York to walk into the commissioners office?
