Two hours? Is that the rule? If so, the NFL isn't concerned with their actual football.

I'm in no way, shape or form siding with the Patriots.
But, it must be pointed out that the NFL goes to great lengths to procure the largest TV contracts in TV history, move their game overseas, televise their Rookie Combine, Three Day Draft, games in preseason along with Sunday, Monday and Thursay night. They have a show every single morning on the NFL Network.
They bust and suspend players for marijuana (which is now legal in many states), alcohol, PED's, DUI's and wearing the "wrong" socks. They don't give a crap if a star player knocks out his wife, until it's caught on film, but they still don't care until TMZ pushes the right buttons. Ray MacDonald and Greg Hardy aren't suspended until AFTER Ray Rice's video emerges, even after Hardy threw his girlfriend on a CACHE of guns and threatend to murder her.
The NFL doesn't care about anything unless it affects their bottom line.
