Not sure if this belongs here, Mods but it's a bye week and this is fascinating.
I love Don Van Natta. He will dig and dig and dig and couldn't care less who falls. A true investigative reporter.
Goody can still squirm out of it but his "transparency" policy is rubbish.

"Outside the Lines" quoted four sources in September who said that Rice had told Goodell he struck Janay -- a claim Goodell has denied, saying that Rice's account to him in the June 16 meeting was "ambiguous." Goodell spent more than two hours testifying Wednesday.
Details of what Rice and his wife testified to Thursday and what Goodell said Wednesday were not released to "Outside the Lines" because of a gag order that Jones imposed. But sources said Newsome backed Rice's previous accounts of what he told Goodell. Goodell spent the majority of his time testifying under cross-examination by outside union attorney Jeffrey Kessler, sources said.
Also presented during the two-day hearing were dueling sets of notes taken by the union and the league during the June 16 meeting. The union's notes, sources said, clearly state that Rice told Goodell he had hit Janay; the league's notes, sources said, state that Rice used ambiguous words to describe the assault.
