If what Florio is saying is accurate, either Goody is a moron OR has additional info that exposes TB.

Goodell dug a hole for himself so deep he can't get out. If he lets an independent arbitrator take on the appeal, the Wells report will be shred and revealed the sham it is. If he refuses and makes himself the arbitrator, the NFLPA sues and goes to court where the Wells report gets torn to shreds and revealed the sham it is.
Millions upon millions were spent for this Wells "investigation". Goodell in a no win situation. Goodell brought it upon himself. To court Brady goes and to the unemployment line Goodell goes.

I think the NFL front office belief is that they're going to drive their steamroller until someone stops them.......which probably means legal action in a real court of law.....they're basically going to reject Brady's appeal and say 'see you in court'
it is actually too late for the mto do anything else given the way they operate
I guess the braintrust of the NFL doesn't realize that messages can be accessed either through the originator or receiver. If the NFL has the phones of McNally and Jaz then they have the messages from Brady unless there is a third secret deflator that Brady is communicating with. Of course the braintrust was unfamiliar with the ideal gas law too.I think we give them too much credit. I don't think there is an alterior motive to fight the union over phones, I don't think there is a plan to reduce Brady's suspension to zero to keep this from the courts.
The NFL believes deep down that Brady and the team are guilty. They believe that Brady doesn't want to go to court and possibly have to show his phone. It is in essence their impotent threat, because they believe that threat will keep Brady from fighting. They believe there are texts on his phone that say "Hey guys lets secretly deflate footballs below 12.5 after the refs check them." They believe that the courts will find the Wells report convincing. They believe that it doesn't matter if they blow off procedures because they have the truth in their side.
They probably have been blowing off their lawyers advice, they don't care because they think they're right.
All of the NFL's decisions make sense if you put yourself in the mindset of a moron.
I guess that makes Kraft the cowardly lion.NFL radio says Goodell staying put is music to Kesslers ears. Its just what Brady and his lawyers want.
They also brought up that Goodell loses this round of player discipline, that it would be strike 3 and severely diminish his rep as commissioner. Vilma served 0 games of a 16 game suspension. If Brady beats him Goodell is nothing but the Wizard of the NFL behind the curtain pulling levers.
I think Goodell's and the NFL's interests have diverged quite a bit, in that his interests are headlined by him keeping his job.
E.g., the league's interests would be served by Brady being cleared. However, to Goodell personally that would be devastating.
@AdamSchefter
NFL rejected NFLPA Motion that Roger recuse himself from appeal, per source.
I guess that makes Kraft the cowardly lion.
"Ahh, but the strawberries that's... that's where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt and with... geometric logic..."The nfl front office morons' Holy Grail fantasy/hope is to have a text between Brady and BB discussing plans to deflate footballs

I agree the league is up to no good, but I can't figure out why the union and Brady's reps are going along with this delay.The NFL will try and delay the appeal and the decision as much as possible forcing brady to make choice close to the start of the season if he wants to go to court and using all possibilities to not let the NFLPA go to court before late to start of the season so that brady may be still having to sit out until the court hearings are heard. Iam not sure if brady can get a stay order and play games and fight in the court.
