It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Mentions the limit of 4 hours to present entire defense (remember getting caught in this lie, NFL?). Didn't think they'd have time to call for McNally/Jastremski as a result.
At end of 11 hours, Goodell asked if either party thought they should be brought in for him to question, and the NFL said 'no'.
Didn't Goodell say in a recent interview something to the effect that both sides, in particular, the union side, said they weren't necessary? Kessler's response sounds slightly different. Maybe just a case of semantics or shading or another case of Goodell not being forthcoming.
Kessler isn’t worried because he said all the NFL will use is “the exact same arguments to Judge Berman that he rejected. They have a one-note defense,” he added.
Interview ending. Kessler is on to Gillette Stadium. I'm guessing that he won't have to pay for entrance.
It really wasn't what he said but the way he said it. In the transcripts they are so polite to each other even though you know they are legally at each other's throats. Maybe now the case is over Kessler doesn't need to be polite anymore.I mean, what can they really argue besides "Berman is required to defer to Goodell's judgment as arbitrator on the matters of whether or not the CBA allows him to suspend Brady and whether or not Pash's testimony is cumulative, and Goodell judged that he was allowed to suspend Brady and that Pash's testimony was cumulative." That's all they really have at this point.

I love how he debunked Goodell's innuendo on this topic from his interview with Mike and Mike. Only had 4 hours, their favorable testimony already on record, therefore no need.Mentions the limit of 4 hours to present entire defense (remember getting caught in this lie, NFL?).
