He has no obligation to be the punishment dictator. Almost every dumb licensing deal and media saturation deal reeks of his fingerprints. It takes clueless owners to agree. But let's not doubt for a second he has his fingerprints all over the mess of today's NFL.

And Elliott is probably a sleaze, probably guilty but it's all hearsay as of now until someone says it under oath.[/QUOTE]
As someone who actually knows a member of Zeke's family who knows the whole story, I will say this. The crazy b!tch stalked Zeke for over a year after they hooked up once or twice. He never layed a hand on her, the injuries she sustained was in a bar fight with another crazy b!tch. Zeke should of known better and should of handled it better than he did. But sometimes young men think with the wrong head and being a stud athlete in college makes you a prime target. Legally he was cleared so I personally think the NFL should back off as well.

You'd be hard-pressed to find a bigger scumbag in sports than Jerry Jones.

If that’s your case for Jones being a scumbag you must despise Clark Hunt as well.

You're right, Tagliabue's job was to actually commission. But the scene has changed, along with the job description. Blame Twitter, the media, and an overall leftists attack on the league for this.

Seeing someone get mad at Goodell is like seeing someone argue with Triumph the Insult Comic Dog instead of Robert Smigel. You honestly believe that 32 billionaire owners and their armies of lawyers are somehow being hoodwinked by that ginger douche? |

The decision to protect the nfl shield in this manner may have been approved by the owners, but the execution has Goodells fingerprints all over it. |

But given how fans react, I'm not surprised that the NFL does this. Innocent until proven guilty sounds good but it is not very viable in practice. The criminal system usually moves really slowly and the guilty beyond reasonable doubt with 12 jurors is a very high standard. If you are going to wait until you have guilty verdict from a criminal courtroom, the fans will still hate that the league is letting a player that is "known" to have done "x" on the field. |
