Here, even according to the plaintiff’s own Complaint, the defamation claims are directly related to Goodellʹs decision to suspend, that is, discipline Vilma, pursuant to the CBA arbitration procedure. Moreover, the defamation claims and the claim for intentional infliction of emotional distress would require interpretation of multiple portions of the CBA, not just the non‐suit provision in CBA Art. 3, section 2, as Vilma contends. As set forth hereinabove, for example, the CBA authorizes Goodell to suspend a player for what he considers ʺconduct detrimentalʺ and also authorizes him to investigate actions that he suspects constitute ʺconduct detrimental.ʺ
