Schefter: Source says Bradys legal team is so good "= Won't miss a game."

Please tell us you have never served on a jury, nor ever will. Thanks in advance.

"derrr this isnt a court case derrrr"

until it goes to court lol

 

[Money]

And that speaking style error changes anything how? So basically you are admitting you understood what I was saying now?

More probably than not.

 

[chappee11]

Along with all the other evidence, including the text messages we know about, yes, it makes you automatically guilty.

Common sense.

I suppose you want to implicate him for the text messages we DON'T know about? That fits your pattern. Are you upset that Wells has this "direct evidence" but left it out of his multi-million dollar report? I guess for Wells hearsay evidence>>> direct evidence, huh?

LMAO...are there seriously some Patriot fans who think the owners, the NFL, or the NFLPA will entertain the idea of this going to court for even a second? Am I reading this correctly?

Unless they meet the demands of the Brady and NLFPA team they won't have a choice. The don't get a say on whether the opposing side files a complaint withe NLB or in a Fed Court.

Nobody involved is going to put the NFLs Anti-Trust exemption at risk by sending this argument through the courts. Not going to happen.

yeah

brady is posturing for just that. is it a bluff?

probably...but he COULD go to court if he wanted. anti-defamation? something.

Right, because the NFL has been hauled before and lost in front of the Feds in recent years for rear of losing Anti-Trust exemption.

The NFL appeals process is just the stepping stone to it going before the National Labor Board. The NLB won't hear the case until the appeals process as prescribed in the CBA has been met. Once that is done, and assuming the Brady/NLFPA team don't get the outcome they desire, it can then become, and likely will, a union grievance issue against the employers and the NLB will then agree to hear it.

What player did this?

What player did this?

Rice, Peterson, Vilma, etc

All of which the league lost.

Not really. At least not without calling the whole CBA into question. The owners aren't going to allow that, and the NFLPA has 1600+ other members to take care of.

You're missing the fact that it has already happened multiple times in recent years. So yes the league and the NFLPA are willing to allow it.

You do know trial and arbitration are two different things, right?

no, he can. study up.

you must have missed bounty gate...

 

[DirtDirtDirt]

Brady didn't give up the phone because it would have implicated him
Are people this dumb?

 

[NEPatsfan]

Yes I have pointed it out in previous posts and threads.

This will likely go before the NLB and an arbitrator will be appointed, although Brady does have the option of filing civi case.

 

[NEPatsfan]

Brady didin't give up the phone under advice of counsel by people I suspect are substantially more knowledgeable than yourself.
