The most interesting aspect of this tip me is whether or not the league changes their tune and offers Brady a deal he can't refuse rather than risk setting this overturned. The league has so much to lose at this Point that they would be wise to do so. As things stand Goodells powers under article 46 are as broad as they can be, and that represents a big bargaining chip for them with the NFLPA, one they can horsetrade for the one thing the owners and Goodell want note than anything and the one thing the players absolutely don't want----- an 18 game season. This will ultimately mean billions of dollars in future revenues for the owners and last time they tried the players said they would never go along with. Goodell actually said in one of his victory lap interviews that if the union wanted to make a deal that reduced his powers the owners would be willing to make a deal and I think this was what he was referring to, he's no longer judge, jury, and executioner and the preseason gets cut to two games and regular season increased to 18. There would still be other issues to resolve to accomplish this but the owners would have gotten over their biggest hurdle, player approval. As it stands right now the owners have that bargaining chip, but if the Brady decision gets overturned again they will have lost their biggest chip. It will be interesting to see if there's a push to settle this, but I think ther owners will wait to see if en banc is granted first, if it is they may try to cut the deal to preserve the ruling.
