357 grams of pot, $190,000 of cash and a gun not as bad as deflating footballs

I wish that were true, but I don't think it accurately reflects the NFLPA's position on the issue in the last CBA negotiation. Maybe next time around it'll be different, but I'm not as optimistic as you.

I think both sides prefer it the way it is. The current structure allows the NFL to be reactive with their decisions and do what's best for bottom line, as each issue is not only unique but increasingly transparent to the public.

But do you know how hard it is for them to agree to anything? Remember how contentious the CBA talks were? James Harrison literally called Goodell a "Devil."

They would have to hammer out a predetermined number of games for every single violation and crime on the books. Do you really think that's realistic?
Was that when AP compared NFL players to slaves?

So are Brady apologists now admitting that he actually {gasp} cheated and broke the rules?

The comparison is nonsense but blame Goodell if you must.

Boooooooooooooooooooooooooring! :rolleyes:
i did all along.

the cheating was having air let out after inspection, no big deal to any smart fan.

"derr herpy dcrp receivers catch it better, you fumble less" (which have all been hilariously debunked)

ball also has more wobble in a flatter ball.

brady was a bitch crying about 12.5 psi...so the guys decided to "show him" and let more out than 12.5...


"that'll show him!"

If you think Goodell wanted to suspend Guion for 3 games, you don't know Roger. If he actually could just hand out punishment as he sees fit, Guion probably would never see an NFL field again. The reason it is only 3 games is the agreement between the NFLPA and the NFL.

The reason Brady got 4 games is that Goodell does have a lot of wiggle room for suspending players for cheating where he doesn't have a lot of wiggle room for off the field arrests anymore.

That's not even a pound. Probably would only last Snoop a month or two with the way he likes his joints and freely passes it around to anyone willing. Puff, puff, give is an expensive philosophy when it is always your weed.

That's not that much smoke really. I mean it's a nice amount to have but not as much as ignorant fucks imagine it to be.

So many dumb fucks, so little time to untwist all their panties about a little ganja plant.

I think your the only Pats fan that will admit that Brady had air let out after inspection. Like you said, a small thing, but thinking you don't have follow a rule you think is stupid, now your asking for trouble.

I am willing to bet a lot of other qb's do this. Its such a minute thing to adhere to. A puff of air. But to brady its a big psychological plus. Comfort.

Its why hes such a bitch about it. Hes a perfectionist...and from the sounds of it, a bit of a dick if he wants to be.

So what do you think of his repeated denials and threatening to go to court?

i wonder how Goodell would have responded if it was Johnny M instead? The NFL is really cherry-picking their targets.

Well aside from the fact that Johnny College is a jackass I find that a very weird weird comparison. 357 grams of weed isn't exactly a nickel bag. Not sure I agree that the league has cherry-picked anything. You sure your issue w/ this suspension isn't the fact that Guion played @ FSU?

3/4 of a pound would have lasted me a year back when I was toking up a nickle bag a week. Nowadays I can make a $20 bud last me month or more.

He feels he did nothing wrong, not enough to warrant what he got. It's his reputation at stake. He pushed for the rule change with peyton on the bsll control for teams, for this reason. He probably likens it to j walking.
