Rob, all the rules of business, economics and common sense also apply in the legal industry. If a client is willing to pay several million dollars for an analysis, that analysis is not going to be unfavorable to the client, especially when there is the promise of future business of the same lucrative kind. The analysis is going to present all facts in the light most favorable to the client, which in this case means pinning the blame of a broken league protocol on a couple of bumbling team employees and insinuating that A player was the mastermind. Dont pay so much attention to meaningless labels like "independent" or "investigation." If the Patriots were absolved, the league office would look like a bunch of clowns incapable of putting uniform footballs out on the field. Just follow the money and understand who the client is. In this case--Goodell and the league office, not the Patriots or even the 32 teams collectively. Your naievete on this point continues to surprise.
They ARE a bunch of clowns incapable of putting uniform footballs out on the field!
