Today: Goodell gets arm twisted by Judge Berman. Tomorrow: Goodell possibly gets found in contempt of court by Judge Doty.

What's that second part about with Judge Doty?

He's in court tomorrow for contempt last year.

What's that second part about with Judge Doty?

NFLPA motioned for contempt of court against ****dell in the peterson case.


This was from the NFLPA

The players filed a motion in Federal Court in the Adrian Peterson matter because the Commissioner and NFL have deliberately ignored both the Court's decision from eleven weeks ago and our repeated requests to comply with that order.

On February 26th, the NFL was ordered to change their decision in the Peterson matter and reissue a ruling consistent with our collective bargaining agreement. The Union made multiple requests to the League office asking the arbitrator, who serves at the direction of the Commissioner, to comply with the law and avoid further litigation. Despite our attempts, they have done nothing and leave us no choice but to seek this motion.

The delay tactics, inconsistencies and arbitrary decision making of the League has continued to hurt the rights of players, the credibility of the League office and the integrity of the Collective Bargaining Agreement. In the absence of any action by the NFL's governing board of owners, the players have acted to hold the NFL accountable to our players, the CBA and to the law.

If this works out like we hope it does and goodell gets his ass handed to him again in court, I'd be pissed off if I'm an owner.

goodell would've lost 5 straight court cases to the NFLPA. How the hell does that happen after he was handed so much power from the cba?

Goodell got a Ferrari and the players got a broken down Pinto from the cba, and somehow the players keep winning the street races

"Brady provided inducements to these artists just like Mr. McNally to deflect from the illegal deflation of footballs that violated the integrity The Game and tarnished The Shield"

DeflateGate 2 coming this fall

Nah, it will be championship-gate. Winning too many championships in one generation.

 

[Mack Herron]

He's still claiming that the Patriots are guilty, and the impressive firm Exponent confirmed that.

Of course. He only acknowledges lack of evidence. Has nothing to do with his beliefs.

A response to this Ted Wells comment perhaps: "In almost 40 years, 1 of most ill-advised decisions I have ever seen"

Mike Reiss added,

Tom Brady's attorney Jeff Kessler admitted Brady could have handled the cell phone issue differently, but said... http://es.pn/1IGYA3u

ITs possible Brady and Pats stopped trusting each other after how NFL acted regarding leaks.

87% chance the NFL invokes the "Cause I Said So Act of 1974," hoping Judge Berman doesn't look that one up.

 

[ensoul]

What I find amusing is the amount of money that the NFL spent on the Wells report only to have the judge pretty much say "The wells report is useless, whats your next point?"

And she blasted him afterward as being out of it and not caring?

What an ingrate.

 

[upstater1]

Only Goodell could take the odds of losing at 33 to 1 and go ZIP for 4.

Lady luck has to favor him this time. No?

 

[SVN]

anyone know when the transcript will be released?

No, but I can speculate
