Roger Goodell is hiding something. This Walsh fellow better watch his back. Specter may have gotten involved because he felt his team was slighted, but with each rock he turns over, something slimy scampers out. The fine and punishment never made sense from day one. Now, I'm starting to see why.

Goodell v. Specter...
Pity they can’t both lose.

Because they like to grandstand and he likes the Eagles.

Senators got involved many moons ago when the NFL came to them asking for favors.

" Specter said he was concerned to learn from Walsh's attorney that an NFL security representative, Dick Farley, had been investigating Walsh. Specter said: "I confronted them on that, and Goodell says, 'Yeah, he [Farley] works for us. Yeah, he is a security guy, but we didn't know he was investigating him.' "Sure, Roger.

The future of our nation and culture, as well as the Republican party, hangs tenuously in the balance, and this clown is going on about foootball?
To: CDHart
I too wondered the same thing, and were upset about them “wasting” their time (and our money) on such things-then I realized that every day they spend on this and steroid investigaions is one less day they have to
1) raise my taxes
2) take away my freedon.
So I wish they would investigate Spygate 24/7/365
To: Hatteras
I forget, why is the US government involved in the NFL?

saying Leahy is "prepared to have the committee pay for people who travel and investigate." This idiot should be impeached for this statement.
Why are senators getting involved in football?
Because like baseball they have a Federal Anti-Trust expemtion.

Good point. But we have to pay for all this - I really, really resent that.

It seems Sen. Specter is jealous of Waxman over the baseball hearings and has decided to dabble in sports himself.
Congress makes me physically ill.

Maybe the Senate should have Goodell water boarded?
To: Hatteras
Specter’s single bullet explanation doesn’t pass scrutiny either.

Maybe, and I'm certainly no fan of Belichick or the Pats. But I can't think of a single good reason for a US senator to concern himself with this.
To: mrmargaritaville
Today they are questioning athletes. Tomorrow who knows who will be under the microscope?

Because like baseball they have a Federal Anti-Trust expemtion. This is always put forth on this forum like it's the end all argument. Hard to believe this is a place for those concerned with all controlling government. So they give up control of their own operation in exchange for exemption from some threat. Sort of like the restaurant owner buying his linens from a certain linen company in exchange for exemption from "accidental" fires.

SPECTRE, you jackal!!!! Why aren’t you busy grilling the treasonous House leadership in the media over how they just left town to allow a critical anti-terrorist measure to expire tomorrow night??
Everyone should read Andy McCarthy’s great column today in Human Events, about how after 12 midnight on Sat. it will be much more difficult to monitor OVERSEAS terrorist communications — the losers in the House slipped out of town and didn’t pass a bill, but of course Arlen SPECTRE is infinitely more concerned about a sport than about American lives around the world.
