The NFL's federal #Deflategate case will be heard by Judge Richard M. Berman.
The NFLPA has until Aug. 13, 2015 at noon to respond to the NFL's #Deflategate complaint in New York, per Judge Berman's orders.
So this means it will be held in new york ?

How does the NFL even have standing to file anything? It's Brady who is the aggrieved party and until he files, I don't see how the NFL has any claims.No. There will be a jurisdiction hearing. The NFL will argue since they filed first, NY has jurisdiction. The NFLPA will argue the only reason the NFL filed first is because they knew the NFLPA would file in MN and the NFL was venue shopping. The file first rule is usually voided in cases like this.
oh Christ, this is the judge who ordered the guy to wrote the anti-Obama book to get "mental counseling"
obvious judge shopping here

Berman: NYC native, Cornell/NYU/Fordham, Clinton appointee, 71 years old.

my guess: not much of a sports guy, certainly no NE sympathies
