Goodell recuses himself from bounty appeal hearing

Dog and pony show IMO.

Why would Tagliabue be "selected" objectively by the same man who has obviously misled the players since day one?

Perhaps the owners informed Goodell of whom he was going to name when they recused his sorry ass.

What a stupid jerk!

This is going to get VERY interesting!! At this point everything that Goodell has said is the main proof of a bounty program has been discredited (i.e. Hargrove saying "Give me my money" and Kennedy being the "whistleblower" and now saying that Goodell is a liar.) Unfortunately there is no coaches union so even if the player suspensions are completely overturned... Sean will still be suspened : (

I'm afraid your right. But this could be a good thing still

I wouldn't count Tom & Rita out of the equation, especially if all the evidence against the players is determined to be BOGUS in the player's appeal. Tags will have to release the same type of press release regarding the appeal decision due to the high visibility.

Nothing stops them from bringing this up again...even with no avenue for SP to pursue.

Both may just wind up in NY "meeting" with Goofball.

What I don't get is if this proves to be based on lies... Why couldn't Sean Payton come back? If this is all bull**** why was he suspended?

I think what this is going to do is sweep this whole thing under the rug finally.

instead of Goodell admitting wrong doing, hes going to have Tagliabue put it to rest and find all the players innocent.

Goodell is trying to protect his image as much as possible, whatever is left to protect.

Unfortunately that statement is not entirely true.
