Goodell: There was no "deal" to reduce Brady's suspension. Kraft caved in on his "own initative"

And will be streaming online on patriots.com, for those of you who can bear to listen to him.

"Brady suspension lifted"

Watch...that is what will happen. Anything to make sure the Wells report is kept away from the court.

Brady will not get justice.

Do we even need to listen anymore?

No one's dethroning him anytime soon. And that's the only thing I'd like to hear come from his mouth.

Oh yay, more press conferences!

Will not happen and you could bet a million dollars on it

Let me be the first to thank the Patsfans posters here who subject themselves to watching this garbage and reporting on it here to us fainter of heart & stomach.

I will not be wasting the bandwidth or the barf bag on the drivel that will get spewed.

I'm guessing he avoids Deflategate entirely.

Guarantee he thanks Krafty Bob for his cooperation throughout, blah, blah....commends the Patriots organization, Kraft Family....great ambasadors of the NFL....blah, blah, blah...F You Roger & F You Kraft

I will not be watching this. I don't envisage it being positive.

Can't get any worse right?

Will not be watching.

It will be worth watching from an academic standpoint if we keep our emotions out of it.

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.

It will be interesting to see how what he says feeds into our post-Kraft-wimp-out anslysis.

I am not expecting anything positive to come out of it for the Pats, and vacating Brady's suspension would not be a positive IMO.

So, will it be "expected worst case scenario" or will it be a press conference that leads to screams of "corrupt bargain!"

Either way... what joy.

I can take another punch, I will watch like this

I just hope they can sedate Robert and loosen that grip he has around Roger's leg before Cuddles G makes his press appearance.
The man embarrassed himself yesterday. Don't need another "episode".

This is so right. And heaven help us all if he trots out a reduced suspension and Brady accepts it.

This offseason is just the worst.

Transcript:

As many of you know, there has been a lot of talk about the report completed last week from Ted Wells. We hired Mr. Wells for an objective investigation into whether or not the footballs were underinflated during the AFC Championship Game and also, whether or not this was an intentional act.

I want to apologize to everyone for jumping the gun, as after reviewing the document again this week, consulting with many scientific experts, and meeting with the other owners of the NFL, I realize that justice was not served, and I would be plain wrong to hand such a penalty to Tom Brady.

Effective right now, Mr. Brady is permanently banned from the National Football League, the New England Patriots will also lose first-round picks in 2016, 2017, and 2018, and I will fine Robert Kraft 50,000,000 for his uppity reaction to the initial punishment.

No questions, please.

LA has been rewarded the Superbowl, the draft, the combine, and a franchise!

A series of well scripted one act plays..........and lets face it, the NFL is entertainment disguised as a sport. Now line up and get your flat beer...$12.
