This is tremendous news because it means that they are taking the first step toward throwing out the Wells report.
I didn't think the league could introduce new evidence in the appeal. The trial is over and the league had their shot. They have to stand on their case. More screups by Goodell.
TB will be a very rich man when this is over
I believe this is correct. My understanding is that the only thing the NFL can use is the Wells report whereas Brady and the Patriots can introduce new facts.I didn't think the league could introduce new evidence in the appeal.

I don't know. I think this is Goodell's way to try to Wells investigation part 2. Since Wells couldn't get Mcnally to interview again, this is a way to finish the Wells investigation.
Don't kid yourself. The result of the Brady appeal will be the Pats lose their 2017 first round pick. At least if Goodell gets his way.
I don't trust this process at all. I think this is horrible news. This whole thing from Goodell passing off the punishment to Vincent to him hearing to the appeal to him calling Jastremski and McNally seems to look like this whole thing is a set up to get the Pats and rehab Goodell's image. Could blow up in his face, but I don't look at this as a good thing at all.
As The otherwise execrable BSPN article noted, Goodell cannot increase the penalties, only lower them or keep them.
I hope the Patriots have maintained contact with these guys with promise of jobs.
Otherwise, the following may occur.
Goodell: Did you deflate balls for TB?
J and McN: Yes.
I don't like I gotta be honest, these guys could easily make or break this thing in favor of either party.
If that happens, no NFL team will hire them and they'll have to leave New England ala Bill Buckner.
They each spent seven hours with Wells accusing them of everything but the Lindberg kidnapping. I think they will hold up well.I hope the Patriots have maintained contact with these guys with promise of jobs.
