Oh I've said all along that I figure something will happen. But I've also shown several instances where conduct as bad or worse got 1 game. And nothing remotely close to the 8 games being suggested. I can't even really get to an analogue at 4.
In a fair world, he gets 1 based on established precedent. In a likely world, he gets 2 for being a name player on a marquee franchise. In Goodell's crazy make-believe world of ****ing Clark because he's amenable to it, he gets 4.
But I think it's FAR more likely that he gets zero than it is that he gets more than that.
Because in the end, FELONY or not, leaving the scene of an accident is the charge. And that's a hell of a lot less gnarly from a PR standpoint than some of the 'menacing' charges or firearms charges that guys DO get a slap on the wrist for.
