It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Isn't that always the case here..after something comes out, most all go into euphoria. I don't mins the positive attitudes, but I do find it amusing.While acknowledging Goodell's mis-handling of the matter, he predicts Brady sits the full suspension. Some prominent sports lawyers agree, and I have not seen an informed legal mind suggest this case is anything like the slam dunk case that some have inferred after reading the NFLPA petition. Fans hoping for a full vindication with recovery of the draft picks may well be facing a reality where the NFL's miscarriage of justice stands.
I agree with Wetzel's article. The public relations war is over and the NFL is the clear victor. Whether Brady's suspension gets wiped by a court based on lack of notice or some other due process defect is really beside the point. It won't affect the public's perception of the merits or Brady's involvement.

Who f*cking cares about public perception Patriots and any Patriots player lost public perception on September 13, 2007
He's right but he's wrong.
If Brady clobbers the NFL in court, then immediately after his victory, he'll still be in pretty much the same PR hole he is in now. However, that victory will clear the decks for him to try a PR comeback, in connection with a neutral arbitration, a defamation case, and/or a settlement in which the NFL agrees to eat some crow.
As to which of those three alternatives is most likely -- that depends upon which is least bad for Roger Goodell. I'm guessing that he'll work hard to keep a defamation case off the table, because that's the one scenario of the three in which he might wind up under oath.
How would the NFL win? Sounds like Doty will get the case and he should accept it.

Good post ... Brady's most likely success in the future could come via defamation lawsuits against all of them.I agree with Wetzel's article.
