What's the point of even trying to use loss of game time as a punishment? Seems like the players win every appeal, unless you're a Saint...

One Big JOKE ! What about the hit on Jimmy Graham, by Brooks.

There are no fees associated with an NFL appeal unless it goes to Court like BG.

The Union provides all of that.

He was fined $30k last week for a hit to Cumberland... Fines and suspensions that are over turned DO NOT WORK
