Guess that full year suspension was not a slam dunk after all

The NFL’s appeal may have indeed resulted in the suspension being increased to a full season but the NFLPA would have challenged that; and it may have gone to court. It would have been another step but not closure, with no certainty as to timing or result.

This is about all parties trying to get closure.

Oh I agree - I was just making fun of the person who stated that it was a slam dunk

It was going to be a ten game suspension, but the league needed that extra push over the cliff.

And it would be nice if they were forced to make a retraction for statements like slam dunk and it doesn't turn out that way

"I was wrong. I was stupid for coming out with that statement and should be forced to do penance of some sort (tbd) for my stupidity."

Missing the issue regarding the year long slam dunk. It was a slam dunk likely upon overturn. That’s why Watson took the 11 game deal. There’s no way he agrees from 6 to now 11, unless there was a serious and real threat of it getting changed to a full year on appeal.

I hope this has teeth.

I will say that the Browns statements about this today make it pretty easy for me to say I just won't watch any games involving the Brownpants. Period.

Fuck that team.

Fixed. Because they certainly shit the bed with their tone-deaf response.

The NFL is all about ratings even when they’re suspending superstars. It’s no coincidence that it’s an 11 gm suspension rather than 10 or 12. His first gm back vs Houston.

Thats a good catch.

Yep, he will be back in time to play the Texans, in Texas, Dec-04. Doesn’t seem like a coincidence.
