We have reached the point where the media supports Kraft more than the fans. Clearly, these fans should switch loyalties to an owner that can bring them more than Kraft has brought them.

What has Kraft brought to this organization aoart from hiring BB? He has been riding his coattails for 15 years, enjoying success and the spotlight that comes with it without having to lift a single finger. In fact, hr ****ed up twice (2007 and 2015) when his actually had to do something to protect his organization. He is being lauded in NFL circles for his work for the league and his own pocket. **** him he is thr most replaceable cog in the machine and yet gets to hold the trophy as the first as if he actually did something in its pursuit.

you don't fight an unwinnable fight, Kraft was smart enough to know that

You fight it even if it is unwinnable to leave a mark in history. Whrn people look back in a few decades all they will see is a cheating scandal and an owner that accepted the penalties.

This will go down as one of history's biggest sports blunders.

Bob Kraft doesn't have an ounce of self respect...Kaft forgot that in the end it's not $$$$ that defines a Man but it's his reputation. I wouldn't wnat to trade places with Bobby right now he will NEVER have real friends.

What I believe is most likely at this point is that in the back room at the league meetings, Goodell fessed up everything to Kraft.........that the whole 'prosecution' is pretty ****ed and that it does not serve Kraft or the NFL to air to public how ****ed things are. Goodell fessed that this thing was out of control before he had a chance to spin it. All the owners stood around Kraft and pursuaded him that throwing Brady under the bus is better than throwing ownerships under the bus.

I predict the appeal will never be heard....it will be dropped maybe after a little pushing and shoving, but it will be dropped since the league cannot afford for the truth to come out. Think about an appeal process or a defamation lawsuit that bring out that Kraft accepted a punishment even though nothing happened......

People will have to watch.....there has to be some way for Kraft himself to be benefitting in a major way from his agreement to not appeal......people don't do this kind of about face without a major factor change........and I very strongly believe it is NOT new evidence that implicates Brady in any way......

so the sell-out is on and it will be interesting to see how deep this goes.....

Win or lose, the end result doesn't matter as much as the decision to stand your ground and fight for what you believe is right.

The agreement wouldve been that goodell will offer a chance to brady to talk to him and bring in anything new to the table as goodell said in the presser to "get this right" . And kraft would talk brady to showing his phone to goodell and goodell reducing the suspension. Although I doubt it will happen.
