Excellent news. Anyone who understands who really owns this company (the NFL) understands that employers have a right to discipline employees.

The ruling handed down last year which prevented Brady from serving his suspension was a liberal, pro-Union judge drunk on power.

Now things are the way they SHOULD be.

The NFLPA does not run the NFL, the owners and their commissioner do.

The original ruling was a Left Wing joke.

Vote Trump, like Brady is...

And with their Anti-Trust Exemption, the Government holds the ‘Sword of Damocles’ over the NFLs’ heads.

“employers have a right to discipline employees”

That is general principle that the courts follow.

But in this case the charges were so fraudulent and the process so rigged that even the Court overturned it.

On appeal, the court ruled 2-1 only that the suspension met the minimum legal standard.

It was a bad decision by Goodell. The process was dishonest.

It only survived by 2-1 on extremely narrow grounds.
