Brady 4 game suspension ruled valid

[den-the-coach]

Hey Tom Braaaaady..

 

[Mojo Ram]

Sad part, it wasn't, but that's another story.
t

There is no other story, but this isn't the place or the time.

 

[Selassie I]

Huge Smile on my face right now :yess::wow:

What a load of crap
---------------

------------
Let’s go look do a full search of Rex Ryan’s home, maybe we’ll find some reason to throw him out of the league.
------------
Here's the ruling:
http://www.ca2.uscourts.gov/decisio...0-5a5af0c19e88/1/doc/15-2801_complete_opn.pdf#xml=http://www.ca2.uscourts.gov/decisions/isysquery/98c62698-d29a-4b91-98a0-5a5af0c19e88/1/hilite/
-------------
Brady will appeal
Make no mistake about it….
-------------
This is starting to drag well beyond the point of reason. I’m not saying he shouldn’t appeal, but I feel like the constant court dates and media scrutiny took a bit of a mental toll on Tom. If an appeal would mean more of the same thing and potentially missing practice/ opportunities to improve I’m not sure he wants to go down this whole rabbit hole again.
------------
Running out of appeal options
Can request a review "en banc," which is just a full slate of Second Circuit judges, but that’s not necessarily going to be granted. After that, all that’s left is the US Supreme Court, which only hears about 1% of cases in which review is requested.

Honestly, at this stage in the game, Brady might just choose to just serve the suspension and move on.
------------
NFL was really pissed we won in 2014 now and they are ensuring we won't win again in 2016
-------------
It's not about air pressure, it's about power
the NFL is suspending their most popular player based on merchandise sales. This is Goodell letting everybody else know who’s the real boss.
------------
When Brady and Belichick leave, so do I.
-------------
Id be fine if Brady accepted the suspension
provided he comes out with the harshest statement at Goodell imaginable. There needs to be multiple uses of each term .. LIAR, SCUMBAG, WEASEL, LYING PIECE OF SH*T, FRAUD, SHAM, KANGAROO COURT, and HITLER.
-----------
This is simply the dumbest decision on the planet
-----------
A grand miscarriage of justice
-------------
Goodell walking into the NFL offices like

-------------
I know I shouldn’t care what other teams fans think of us, but i’m tired of us being the villians

Win Super Bowl XLI
F*** Goodell and his minions and the rest of the league.
------------
Someone should throw a brick through Goodells window with the ideal gas law equation strapped to it
------------
NFL finally "Jumps the Shark"
Let the merge with FIFA begin…
-----------
This is ON fellas. Anger, misery, you’ll suffer unto me \m/ and on and on. Harverster of Sorrow will reap your trophies bitches.
-----------
My thoughts are I am slowly moving away from sports
This is a symptom of a bigger problem. The owners are ruining the game, and I am hitting the end of my rope.
----------
Such is life under the Ginger overlord ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I sure hope he doesn't appeal! or that the appeal is denied!!

 

[Akrasian]

I hope he appeals, and the appeal is denied - after week 1. You know, the game against the Cardinals.

In terms of the Pats fan above who wants Brady to blast Goodell at a press conference - good idea. What would the suspension be for that?

 

[KJD_Ram]

I hope he appeals also, and it drags on until, oh until November 13th or so....

[Yamahopper]

And here's to his fans.

 

[RocknRam29]

 

[DaveFan'51]

Freaking "Willie-Boy McGinnus" Just doesn't get it!!
He was just on NFLN saying " The suspension was unjust because the penalty for deflating Balls is a $2500 fine and No Suspension!!
Well .. someone should remind 'Willie-Boy' that Brady's suspension was because he Failed to cooperate with the investigation, and destroyed his cell phone, "Evidence!!"
GET OFF YOUR PULPIT WILLIE-BOY!!

 

[RhodyRams]

and it costs Brady a fraction of the salary it would have cost him last season

actually I believe he restructured last year before winning his appeal..not 100% sure tho

 

[Mackeyser]

Yeah, he restructured specifically because the suspension only affects SALARY, not bonuses.

So his entire money for this year was restructured to a bonus. Brady is playing for the league minumum salary in order to mitigate the impact of the suspension. Had it not gone through, no harm. And he plans to play for a few years, anyway, so why not?

Plus it undercuts the Commish's authority a little bit. Sure, he's missing games, but he was able to keep most of his money. Most players would take that deal...

 

[kurtfaulk]

but the suspension reinforces the public's view of him, bellyfat and the patriots as cheaters. they'll forever be known as cheats by fans.
