Well, as you know, playing the game with underinflated balls is tantamount to PED use.

Manziel- Browns- 4 games

Richardson- Jets- 1 game

Thats all I got to say 'bout that.

Let's compare which teams they played for .... ah never mind.

Drug policy in this country has certainly driven a lot of insanity.

Manziel powdering his nose is a lot better for society than drag racing with a 12 year old in the car but I mean, drugs are bad mmkay

I would think that the NFL would distribute 4 games suspension all over the league to help their cause on deframegate, the fact that they have 1 to Richardson doesn't sound good me. The last time they did something like that was days before the Wells report when they gave the Jets a 100k fine for tampering with Revis and then the most severe punishment in the history of the league to the Patriots. I wonder if they have some information about the unfoldings of the en banc review request.

Specifically which incident did Johnny get suspended for?

 

[RecoveringCowboy]

I finally found something Manziel has in common with Brady: both have been suspended by Goodell for four games.

I predict neither will do their suspension, for different reasons.

Rolando Mclain gets a 10 game suspension for substance abuse because War on Drugs (apparently only applies to non-Jet players).

You know Sheldon Richardson ****ed up when people don't even mention the gun while discussing how badly he ****ed up.

Wasn't the gun legal? The real issue was doing 143 MPH with a child in the car.

Actually: Drugs, guns, speeding, and child endangerment: the Quad-fecta, or " just another day at the jesters office"

Nice article on this by Nick O'Malley at MassLive, dripping with heavy sarcasm:

Jets DL Sheldon Richardson leads police on 143 MPH chase with 12-year-old in car; suspended 3 fewer games than Tom Brady

 

[tuckeverlasting]

1 game ?? that seems about right. he plays for the jets and he's never been suspended before...oh wait !

 

[nabwong]

Yeah but the NFL are banning the jets from resigning Fitzpatrick and making them start Geno. So I'd say that equals at least a 6 game suspension.

And I'll say it again, if I didn't love NE the way I do, I'd boycott this damn league. Seriously, what the f is up? Richardson had a child in the car going 143mph according to officiating police documents and gets one game? I don't care if Manziel did a ****tail of everything there is, he should never get more games than Richardson. Seriously, how has there been no outside intervention? Can someone who knows the law better than me explain this to me?

Josh Gordon must Be wishing he had gone to the Jets, he would have only missed a game or two.
