Another 500 foot grand slam from Curran. I've read it twice and nodded my head profusely. My two favorite paragraphs follow.

Curran: A Giant sense of entitlement within the NFL
If you’re mobbed up with the league office positioned at 345 Park Avenue, New York, New York, you never have to worry about selective rules enforcement, whisper campaigns against your organization, or dime-dropping because people there don’t like you.
No tears outside New England were shed for the combined punishment for Spygate and Deflategate -- two first-round picks confiscated, the $1.75 million in fines and the four-game suspension of Tom Brady. Made sense, most agreed, because the league so successfully sold its position to the public via media friendlies who’d been co-opted by the league hierarchy decades ago.
