This will cost the NFL a lot of money in the end. If he were a DA he'd be charged with wrongful prosecution.

This will cost the NFL a lot of money in the end.

How much, a few M? NFL is nothing but Showbiz: No such thing as bad publicity.

This has seemed more and more like some kind of internal NFL war and not really about underinflated footballs at all. With a multi-billion operation and Goodell’s $40 million salary, perhaps it’s not a surprise.

I don’t think it’s going to cost any money. Nobody is going to stop watching football because of it. But it’s got a good chance to cost Goodell his job. This was just a badly handled thing from the minute they got that letter from the Colts.

Failure? Seems that Roger finally got it right this time.

[Hebrews 11:6]

I just have to state it somewhere: in my 66 years, I have never before seen anything even approaching how overblown this miniscule story has become. MUCH ado about nothing.

Does Goodell qualify as a hero under the famous liberal mantra, "It's not the hard evidence, stupid....it's the seriousness of the charge?"

From another FR thread and Breitbart:

Here are the top-ten reasons why an honest and impartial arbiter will toss the suspension:

#10. Ted Wells Judges 100 Seconds Enough Time to Deflate Balls But 13 Minutes Not Long Enough for Refs to Test Balls?

#9 Wells Report Labels Texts Undermining Case a ‘Joke,’ Texts Buttressing Case Dead Serious

#8. Ted Wells Doesn’t Really Know the Pregame Pressure Levels

#7 After Relying on Walt Anderson’s ‘Best Recollection,’ Wells Disregards It

#6. The Refs and Their Gauges Fluctuated Greatly

#5 The NFL Doesn’t Punish for Ball Tampering

#4. Wells Report Misleadingly Says Pats Shielded Ball Handler from Follow-Up Interview

#3 A Whole Lot of ‘More Probably Than Not’ Adds Up to Unlikely

#2 Wells Cherry Picks Data by Relying on Best Pressure Readings from Colts, Worst Ones from Patriots

#1 NFL Uses Different Ball Pressure Standard for Pats and Colts

In MYNHO this could all be avoided by simply putting the refs in charge of all the game balls. When one team or the other needs s fresh ball they get it from a ref.

Seems to work great for baseball.
