#NFLPA Statement on Appeal Filed on Behalf of Tom Brady: http://bit.ly/1H5FXT3

The NFLPA has filed an appeal of the four-game suspension of Tom Brady handed down by Troy Vincent.

Given the NFL’s history of inconsistency and arbitrary decisions in disciplinary matters, it is only fair that a neutral arbitrator hear this appeal.

If Ted Wells and the NFL believe, as their public comments stated, that the evidence in their report is “direct” and “inculpatory,” then they should be confident enough to present their case before someone who is truly independent.

Let's see who Roger names to hear the appeal.

Is there any language to the appeal, an official letter? I can't access the site linked in the tweet.

Here We Go! C'ya Opening Thurs Nite vs Steelers Brady! Rip'm A New One!

Glad his fax machine didn't break down.

I like how the wording suggests the NFL and Wells as co-conspirators. Give em hell.

And with that...... we gone and done broke the internet!!!! I cannot get the appeal page to load !

Not even a naked Kim Kardashian could break the internet. NFL needs to apologize to the Pats and Brady then laugh at all the monster free press they are getting. Unreal.

Hey Greg Bedard do you still think Ted Wells schooled Don Yee?

That conference call that Wells did is when Wells decided to overstep and say "direct evidence".

They use Wells' exact words as part of the basis for requesting an independent arbitrator. That's beautiful.

OOH, I cant wait for all this to unfold....what a great day to be a PATS fan !

Hopefully himself so we can take him to court and expose his ass.

I hope after this that both Goodell and Vincent are fired from their position.
