...and something really scary came up.
This is from Wikipedia. So, if Brady's suspension gets vacated, the NFL is allowed to just slap it right back on him? How the hell does that work?
Also, I've noticed a lot of people here saying that they wished they had heard the Saints out more when this was all happening, and I've got to ask you all: What should the punishment for Bountygate actually have been? Sure, the NFL massively screwed up, but Gregg Williams did seem to actually admit SOMETHING happened. Were the 2 2nd rounders valid? Were the coach suspensions valid? The player suspensions?
All four players appealed their suspensions. On September 7, 2012, the Burbank appeals panel vacated the suspensions imposed on the four, and the NFL confirmed that the ruling reinstated them in time for their first games of the 2012 season two days later.[73] Two days after the fifth game of the season, on October 9, 2012, the league re-issued the suspensions without any changes or reductions; the players' appeals continued.[74]
