Actually, if the unlikely happens and the Second Circuit reverses Judge Berman’s decision, the next step would be to remand the case to Judge Berman to see if Goodell’s award should be vacated on one of the other grounds that Brady and the NFLPA raised, including that Goodell was “evidently partial,” but that Berman specifically noted in his opinion that he didn’t address. I mentioned this in the Brady Wins thread, but by specifically making note that he was not ruling on Brady and the NLFPA’s claim that Goodell was “evidently partial,” Judge Berman gave a warning shot to the NFL that things could get ugly for Goodell if the NFL manages to get the case sent back to Berman. Of course, the NFL appears not to have taken the hint.My best guess is it all comes down to the "notice" point. If that gets overturned, then I believe this could get sent back to a new arbitrator, or even worse, back to Goodell with instructions to let Pash testify or any other point that was ruled on in favor of Brady. I could be wrong.
