I disagree.
At it's very core, you have an employee who is potentially being denied wages because of the employer's claim that he did not adhere to a code of conduct.
The plaintiff's argument is that his employer has not substantiated their claim to justify the employee's right to earn his/her wages.
Yastrzemski and McNally were not NFL employees but Patriot employees. Their employer actually suspended both from their positions before the NFL asked them to? Perhaps, we now know why?
That's so stupid. Why would he lie about that? He was under unprecedented pressure and had a brain fart.Yeah but I can remember whether the bathroom I use has a urinal or toilet.

I wouldn't advocate that. My position is that the science explains the ball deflation, making texts, phone calls, ball bay testimony, bathroom breaks and other such distractions moot.so how do you think he would do if they brought him in to testify at brady's appeal hearing when there were 40 people in the room?
But ya I guess you could say technically 3 for 3 because a true independent arbitrator overturned it.
I mean goodell just looks bad off the bat when it goes to court and Brady's counsel argues about him not recusing himself because look at some of the last suspensions
Bountygate players- Stephen Burbank (Upheld)
Ray Rice- Former Judge Barbara Jones (Overturned)
Adrian Peterson- Harold Henderson (Upheld)
Greg Hardy- Harold Henderson (No Decision Yet)
How come goodell couldn't give it to another arbitrator, even Henderson who is clearly in the bag for goodell? Why not give it to Jones which would show the whole "not married to the report" and the report being independent.
What exactly is it that has made Goodell uniquely responsible for the NFL's success? He has built on the success of others and there are other competent managers would would have done at least as well.
I wish the Wells report had come out back in February because we'd be in court by now. It's not like the NFL had to take until May to figure out what they were going to say, they knew back in January.
