For me, it is more the inconsistency with gathering information. Brown may very well be innocent and he should be treated as innocent until proven guilty. However, the NFL deciding that they don't need to put him on the commissioners exempt list until they conclude their investigation is a little odd to me. It shouldn't matter if its a civil or criminal suit.
What happens if they let him play and then the civil suit turns into a criminal case because there is enough evidence to charge? It just makes me shake my head with how Goodell is handling this situation
