Update on NFL Investigation into Luck's Rib Injury

Remember way back in 2015 when after weeks we finally learned that the Colts & Luck knew he had injured ribs but forgot/neglected/whatever to list it on the weekly NFL injury report mandated by Goodell?
Here's an update where on the investigation stands...
What, no info? My bad.

NFL has no update on Andrew Luck rib investigation

NFL Injury Reporting Policy here “This policy is of paramount importance in maintaining the integrity of the game,”

What I love is the huge # of Pats fans who are ruling the Internet over this stuff.

Yeah, we'll never hear of it again. Nor will we hear much about Fivehead's HGH use. The latter survived the initial 48-hour media cycle of rage. It's already back page material.

They're too busy not investigating Manning to investigate this.

Bias? What bias?

trivial distractions divert the populace's scrutiny away from more salient transgressions like deflate-gate

thankfully, commissioner Goodell is a man of focus, commitment, sheer will......he keeps his eye on the prize

I can hardly wait for the commissioner to come down hard on the team and fine them a million dollars and take away their first round draft. I am sure that their owner will surrender the pick for the good of the league. LOL

Your inferiority complex must be kicking in.

But the Colts have a great track record!

Big Jule: Well, I used to be bad when I was a kid, but ever since then I've gone straight, as has been proved by my record: Thirty-three arrests and no convictions!

Big Vince is leading the investigation:

Apparently the NFL investigation budget is strictly set at $5million a year. I guess we'll just have to wait until after the season (or before the movie concussion 2: the Goodell years) to launch an investigation with next year's budget.

Hope Big Vince is double dipping the Lipitor

Chris Mortensen reports that the 11th and 12th ribs will be removed.It may take up to 6 months to fully recover from rib removal procedure but Andrew Luck will have the ladylike curves he dreamed of by the time training camp starts.

I think we all know how this investigation will go:

Goodell: Who is being accused of falsifying the injury report?

Pash: The Colts.

Goodell: I see. And what do they say about it?

Pash: That they're innocent and they did everything by the book.

Goodell: Sounds good to me. Tell Aiello to put together a press release stating that we found no evidence of wrongdoing. Anything else?

Pash: Well, Bill Polian emailed me yesterday. He said he just remembered that, when he would visit Foxboro, the catering wasn't up to league standards. For example, they never seemed to have enough mozzarella sticks and pigs in a blanket.

Goodell: Those freakin' guys. Set up a conference call with Wells this afternoon.

Report: Colts won’t be sanctioned by the NFL

Andrew Luck reportedly played with multiple broken ribs this season, but the injury wasn’t disclosed by the Colts on injury reports.

However, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported Sunday morning there was "no violation" and the Colts won’t be sanctioned by the NFL for questioning.

Remember it's only a "violation" if Goodell decides it's a violation.

I kinda want Vince to cook me some BBQ. I saw that video of him dancing while flipping a big stack of ribs. He knows how it's done.

Pumping in crowd noise
Tampering with Footballs (gauged Pats ball, Jags equipment manager says he saw Colts staff with needles on the sideline)
Using "under inflated" balls in the AFCCG
Leaving injured players off the injury report
Old QB on PEDs

All unpunished...all things other teams have received punishment for.

Uh-oh. I'm sure Bob Kraft will be all over this travesty at the next league meetings. Expect him to be vociferous and to leverage this hypocrisy to make the case for reinstatement of our draft picks.
I can't wait!

Hmm, you don't suppose the owner is dealing prescription drugs to the league office in exchange for favors?
