Overturned - Brady suspension vacated. Let's hear you bitch and moan. Crow $2 a plate

[redseat]

The cell phone never mattered. They had access to everything they could want and told the NFLPA they weren't intersted in recreating it when it was offered to them. Something that would take 6 interns a day to do.

I know and that was the NFL's fault for that.... But I'm just saying that we won't ever know for sure since that piece of "evidence" is not there.

Because the 2 ball boys were texting each other implying as much

Or do you believe for some unexplanable reason, they took that upon themselves

To this day we have no context on the messages. And until we do, they mean nothing.

Perfectly stated from a certified attorney

He >>>> All of you

So why don't you go on the record. Are you predicting the 2nd Circuit will overturn Berman's rulling?

The suspension was "premised upon several significant legal deficiencies,''Berman wrote in his opinion, noting that an arbitrator's factual findings are generally not open to judicial challenge.

The judge said Brady had no notice he could receive a four-game suspension for general awareness of ball deflation by others or participation in any scheme to deflate footballs and for not cooperating with an investigation.

"Brady also had no notice that his discipline would be the equivalent of the discipline imposed upon a player who used performance enhancing drugs,'' Berman said.

Brady was also denied equal access to investigative files, including witness interview notes, and didn't have a chance to examine one of two lead investigators, the judge said.

The written decision frees Brady to play for the Sept. 10 season opener against the Pittsburgh Steelers. In Las Vegas, the Patriots moved from 3-point favorites to 6.5-point favorites in that Week 1 game, and the over/under total grew from 48.5 points to 51 at William Hill's Nevada sportsbook.

harsh

U.S. District Judge Richard M. Berman said NFL commissioner Roger Goodell went too far in affirming punishment of the Super Bowl-winning quarterback, criticizing him for dispensing "his own brand of industrial justice." Brady has insisted he played no role in a conspiracy to deflate footballs below the allowable limit at last season's AFC Championship Game.

The collective bargaining agreement is written to give Goodell EXACTLY just that type of authority when it comes to the integrity of the game.

It doesn't need to be though. They can reverse engineer into it if they so chose. I suspect the NFL didn't want to do that because they knew from what they already had that there was likely nothing there.

Are you predicting that the 2nd Circuit overturns the decision?

 

[Southieinnc]

I wonder if Pats fans believe he actually did cheat, and thought the suspension was unfair?

Or do they really believe he had NOTHING to do with the deflated footballs?

(That isnt for Rock , we know what he thinks)

I don't think Brady cheated. At all. I have said this from the beginning. His first quote was

Because the 2 ball boys were texting each other implying as much

Or do you believe for some unexplanable reason, they took that upon themselves

The idiot employees bitching about their Boss complaining as if all they have to do is to prepare Brady's balls, does not in context say that they were doing the preparing after the balls were checked. Brady bitching about the balls being 16 pounds after the Jets game is not breaking the rules.....

 

[PatsFan2003]

You are correct it's all about the procedures that were used but it has nothing to do with Brady being innocent. You guys need to wrap your head around that....Bradys rep is still tainted.

I'm actually happy to see him back as I'd rather have a fair fight this season. I don't want to hear any excuses. Fins are ready...

Only to the haters. Over time most people who watch football will view it as poorly as those people who used stickem or even steriods (as it's become a common infraction) They'll overlook it as just part of the game.

Why would i do that.....The evidence is still destroyed and its still completely circumstantial.....But people that dont wish to make love to Brady* know what the real deal is
