Quotes are from Raffi M., not Steph S.

unless arbitration can *never* be overturned, there has to be a limit.

If, say, Goodell decided the case by reading tea leaves or witchcraft, the court would reverse. A. 46 wouldn't help.

I guess the question I'd want the NFL to answer is "if this wasn't an unfair arbitration, what is? How bad does it need to be?"

if Brady wins the case technically goes back for a "fairer" arbitration.

And indeed, when I have successfully gotten arbitrations reversed, a second arbitration happened. The case didn't end.

On 8/12, by the way, I expect the Judge to publicly tell both sides he has serious problems with their cases. Max pressure.

I'm envisioning a public yelling at to begin, and then parties go to chambers for private talk.

He'll wait. He doesn't want to rule. He will loudly complain about both sides and let them stew.
