Probably also Favre. He got a lot of wins with the Jets and Vikings on top of the ones he got with the Packers. #2 can't be Montana, he suffered injuries in his career and competed for starts with Young. It's probably QB who had a long career and was very healthy and played on good teams, which...

Yeah I don't think he's excused from the media anymore, but in all honesty he should probably try to avoid a ton of media appearances while he's still in the middle of a contentious lawsuit against the NFL.

The Steelers got a lot out of a few very big plays, whereas the Patriots were more consistent about making small gains. I'm interested to see what Football Outsiders will have to say about it.

how do i even clock

Huh, weird. I guess Brady doesn't sell well here in New York.

Is the Brady commercial a local thing? I live in NYC and I don't think it was on here, unless I missed it.

Patriots are cheating by broadcasting their plays to the Steelers' radio headsets...? I don't even

This goes to the integrity of the game.

Man I guess the offseason has really aged Jimmy a few years. Surprised they allowed him to switch numbers with Brady as well.

Heh, right, "remembered as a player". He never experienced pumped in crowd noise as head coach of the Colts. Never. ;)

I mean, what can they really argue besides "Berman is required to defer to Goodell's judgment as arbitrator on the matters of whether or not the CBA allows him to suspend Brady and whether or not Pash's testimony is cumulative, and Goodell judged that he was allowed to suspend Brady and that...

I had a clarifying follow-up post on how important it is to have a specific player policy detailing consistent discipline for workplace violence: This doesn't need to be an NFL vs players issue. This is a serious workplace safety issue. It's unacceptable to just allow players to assault their...

I guess I didn't really emphasize strongly enough that I agree really strongly with your point on player notice. All I want is for the NFL to come up with a very specific, collectively bargained player policy that notifies players and constrains the league and clubs on penalties for workplace...

And he won't. Players and other team employees almost never press charges against each other. An aggressive prosecutor could have taken up the case anyway, but that never happens either. So basically there is no legal consequence for assaulting a teammate.

A distinction that matters, but only insofar as the CBA and player policies should specify who is responsible for enforcing discipline in the case of workplace violence. I'm not employed by the state of New York, but a New York jury can put me in jail for punching out my coworker even after I...

If I punched one of my coworkers and broke his jaw, not only would I get fired, I would most likely face criminal assault and battery charges. I guess we give a lot of leeway to professional athletes on workplace violence because professional athletics are inherently physical and sometimes even...

The only downside if the NFL doesn't appeal is that we won't get to read the next Munson column about how the appeal court loss is actually a secret win for the NFL because it defies the expectations of legal analysts such as himself and the Supreme Court will no doubt hear this case and...

I'm not going to say that Troy Vincent got his job as an NFL executive because of his secret meeting with Goodell in which he is alleged to have made a deal to deliberately undermine the players' bargaining position in return for owner support in order to further his own position in the NFLPA...

Yeah, if it's just Pash then they re-do the arbitration, probably still with Goodell as arbitrator, and he just rules that Pash's testimony doesn't change his mind. At worst whatever information Pash testifies on will be an embarrassment to the NFL, but the commissioner has proved he is too...
