For the dumbasses history revisionists, here is the time line.

1. Tom Brady gets caught cheating.
2. League suspends Brady
3. Tom Brady appeals to league
4. League upholds suspension
5. Tom Brady filed petition to US court
6. Court overturns suspension - Patriots fans rejoice
7. NFL appeals court decision
8. NFL wins.
9. Tom Brady FINALLY accepts suspension

Yeah but.... "I don't want to be a distraction......"
I'm pretty sure it was the NFL that filed a petition in court to have the suspension upheld.

But I could be wrong. I don't remember all the details that well, it was so long ago.

The NFL appealed the court ruling which reinstated Brady. But Brady is the one who took it to US Court to begin with.

There is one simple concept you all are missing. In order for their to be an appeal..their has to be a ruling in the 1st place. Brady is the one who compelled the court to rule in the 1st place. This part I am not clear on but I am pretty sure initially it was some idiot Judge out of Minn. that overturned the suspension.

watching paint dry >>> Brady press conference or Cam press conference


Brady actually gives out quality info in his pressers. Neither Cam nor paint do.

Yeah so you think he knew about all that crap before?

No but if you gloat about a great friendship with the guy and offer your stance on him one would think he would want to take the opportunity to distance himself from that guy. Clearly Tom didn't want to go there because...his lie about not being a distraction.

Clearly he has no issue with being a distraction.

Tom Brady files petition for suspension case rehearing




Tom Brady's lawyers filed a petition Monday for a rehearing of his suspension case against the NFL before the U.S. Second Circuit Court of Appeals in New York.

According to the filing, Brady's legal team, led by former U.S. Solicitor General Ted Olson, petitioned for a panel rehearing or a rehearing en banc. In an en banc hearing, all 13 judges on the court would rehear the case.

"The facts here are so drastic, and so apparent, that the court should rehear it," Olson told ABC News in an interview that aired Monday morning.




Appearing on NFL Total Access on Monday, Gabe Feldman, director of the Tulane Sports Law Program, characterized the en banc rehearing request as "a long shot" to be accepted by the court.

Monday marked the petition deadline after a three-judge panel ruled 2-1 against Brady last month, reinstating the New England Patriots quarterback's four-game suspension for his connection to deflated footballs used in last year's AFC Championship Game.

In the filing, lawyers for Brady and the NFL Players Association argue a "rehearing is warranted because the (appeal) panel opinion conflicts in two key respects with decisions of the Supreme Court and decisions of other circuits."

The petition cites Judge Robert A. Katzmann in his dissenting opinion last month when he wrote NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell "exceeds his limited authority under the CBA to decide 'appeals' of disciplinary decisions." Brady's lawyers also argue "the Commissioner completely ignored the collectively bargained schedule of penalties for equipment-related violations." Citing Katzmann again, the petition argues that those collectively bargained equipment violations should have "limited the discipline" or "reduced" the sanctions against Brady.

"The divided panel of the Second Circuit reached erroneous legal conclusions under an unfair and unjust standard," Olson said in a statement. "The decision and the standards it imposes are damaging and unfair -- not only to Tom Brady -- but to all parties to collective bargaining agreements everywhere. Commissioner Goodell cannot sit as an appellate arbitrator and then affirm the league's initial disciplinary decision based upon a new theory and imagined evidence and pretend to be an unbiased decision-maker."

DeMaurice Smith, executive director of the NFLPA, argued in a statement that Brady "was not afforded fundamental fairness and due process as guaranteed by the collective bargaining agreement and case law.

"We also know that the NFL propped up a now completely de-bunked 'independent' report with a made-up standard as the basis for his suspension," Smith said.

There is no timeline for the court to decide whether or not it will rehear the case. If the court accepts the petition, there would be a stay of Brady's four-game suspension until the new ruling, and he'd be eligible to play.




If the court chooses not to rehear the case, Brady could then petition the U.S. Supreme Court and ask for a stay of the second circuit decision. If the second circuit doesn't grant a stay, Brady's lawyers can ask for a stay of the decision from the Supreme Court, which would be decided by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg. If Ginsberg granted a stay or the court decided to hear the case, Brady almost certainly would be eligible to play the entire 2016 season due the Supreme Court's schedule.

Feldman said the chances of the Supreme Court deciding to hear the case would be very low.

Brady was suspended four games by the NFL in May 2015 after an NFL-commissioned investigation conducted by attorney Ted Wells concluded it was "more probable than not" that Brady was "generally aware" of Patriots attendants deflating footballs prior to the AFC Championship Game against the Indianapolis Colts on Jan. 18, 2015.

The four-time Super Bowl winner's suspension was initially nullified by U.S. District Judge Richard Berman last September, a week before the first game of the regular season. An appeals panel reversed Berman's decision in April, stating in the majority opinion that Goodell "properly exercised his broad discretion under the collective bargaining agreement" in issuing Brady's suspension.

The Patriots open the season on the road against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday Night Football. New England then plays three straight home games against the Miami Dolphins, Houston Texans and Buffalo Bills. If Brady were to end up serving his suspension this season he would be eligible to make his 2016 debut Oct. 9 on the road against the Cleveland Browns.

I was hoping you'd know what that nonsense meant. It's not some NE term?

I don't believe that. Not coming from a Pats fan.:D So watching paint dry still wins out for me.

You're wrong.

On July 28, Goodell announced that he had upheld the four-game suspension, citing Brady's destruction of his cell phone as a critical factor: "On or shortly before March 6, the day that Tom Brady met with independent investigator Ted Wells and his colleagues, Brady directed that the cell phone he had used for the prior four months be destroyed," the league statement read. "He did so even though he was aware that the investigators had requested access to text messages and other electronic information that had been stored on that phone. During the four months that the cell phone was in use, Brady had exchanged nearly 10,000 text messages, none of which can now be retrieved from that device. The destruction of the cell phone was not disclosed until June 18, almost four months after the investigators had first sought electronic information from Brady."[81][82] The NFL also filed papers in Manhattan federal court seeking to confirm Roger Goodell's decision

The NFL was the first to bring it to court.

I'll break this down:

1. Brady suspended by Roger Dodger
2. Brady appeals suspension to the guy who suspended him and gets denied (surprise surprise)
3. Brady files injunction in USDC New York to have suspension vacated. NFL files at or about the same time in Minnesota to have suspension declared valid. Minnesota case gets punted and consolidated with the New York case.
4. NY District Judge says suspension is bullshit! Arbitrary and capricious!
5. NFL says no way Mr. Terrific is going to win this - and appeals to second Circuit
6. 2 of 3 appeals court judges say "suspension is cool - commish has those powers and his decision was not arbitrary."
7. Brady and the Union say screw that - how's about a rehearing en banc with all the judges!
8. All the judges say (or at least a representative speaking for the court as a whole) says NOPE!
9. Brady takes his punishment like a man!
10. Cleveland and Cincinnati dicks are kicked in upon his glorious return.


Now this was done from memory so send any complaints about the above to CowboyB

That is 3 times this guy couldn't just put the story to rest and prolonged it staying in the news and being a distraction.

So yes - this thread may be a troll thread because the majority of these guys get so flustered and personally insulted when their God Brady is attacked but it has plenty of merit.

Tom Brady's excuse of not wanting to be a distraction is complete GARBAGE.

False. Brady sent it to NYDC to have it vacated.

I have never seen a Broncos fan who can suck as much Brady cock as a Cheatriots fan.

Congratulations?
