The Tom Brady A-Peel Starts Today

The Wells report continues to get shredded.
The NFLs scientific consultant has bigger problems than the Wells report | ProFootballTalk

Wells used a company to support 'his' findings on a scientific basis. The company, Exponent was the company that once made the claim that second hand smoke does NOT cause cancer. Interesting article.

Troy Vincent criticizes NFLPA for spending millions on lawsuits - CBSSports.com

But it's perfectly fine to waste $5,000,000 on a report that proves nothing!!

The NFLPA wants to go to court to disqualify Goodell as an arbitrator. The more that people are questioned, the more information points to a screwed up sting operation that could have compromised a championship game. The information also brought into question the possibility that someone outside of the Patriots or the Colts may have tampered with balls to get the Patriots into trouble. Follow that with the Ted Wells investigation that was bought and paid for by Goodell where it's beginning to appear more and more that Goodell was paying for a report that would indict the Patriots and/or Tom Brady. That report which cost a reported $5.3M provided nothing concrete to the league and only is an assumption of Ted Wells and does not provide any proof of wrong doing. The final piece is that Goodell would not let an independent arbitrator such as a judge or labor arbitrator handle Brady's appeal because he was afraid that the punishment handed down by Troy Vincent would be revoked due to lack of credible evidence.

I certainly don't have the all of the legal expertise to write what I just did to submit to a jury or a judge, but I can't imagine that the NFL's lawyers would want to try to defend the Commissioner's position against a team of
legal vampires that the NFLPA will have ready to pounce. I can't imagine that the owners would want to pay a team of lawyers $5000 an hour to try to uphold Brady's four game suspension. I could see this costing the NFL $100-$200M to defend. $100M-$200M to lose what you knew you couldn't win.

If the owners don't want this to happen, then maybe they should not have let this happen. They backed/supported Goodell in this. They want to see Brady pay for this as much as anyone (Woody Johnson's wife tweet). Once again the league was hoping Kraft would tell Brady to accept the punishment and move on. Not happening. That comment from Kraft "we will accept the punishment" is really coming back to kick the NFL in the balls. The fact Kraft had to lay down for these other 31 assholes really pissed him off. He is going to let Brady do what he need's to do.

Troy Vincent in a nutshell....I borrowed this from someone else....

Troy Vincent talking about integrity and morality when this is your record: 1) stole confidential financial info of 41 agents when he was NFLPA guy and sent info to his business partner, 2) Undermined Gene Upshaw as NFLPA head when Upshaw was his biggest supporter, engaging in secret correspondence with Goodell 3) NFLPA board decided he was unqualified to be Union president because of his lack of formal education and numerous personal business venture failures, 4) He created 7 businesses between 1998-2004 and all went bankrupt, 5) He owed $200,000 to a former investor that court forced him to pay back, 6) He tried to cover up a sexual assault at a tanning salon in NJ that he owned, 7) former business partner stole $150k from a former NFL player, 8) He lied on his resume with NFLPA about graduating from college (Wisconsin) then had to go back and get an online degree from Thomas Edison College in order to try and be NFLPA president. 8) Lied to Adrian Peterson about what his suspension would be in order to get him to attend a meeting with Goodell at NFL headquarters (Peterson taped the conversation, which helped overturn the suspension in federal court).

A lot of integrity and high moral standards there. Keep talking, Troy.

So they have a liar, a cheat a theif protecting the integrity of the shield?

They deserve all the bad karma they get.
