Comments on: To no surprise, no settlement in bounty cases http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/07/24/to-no-surprise-no-settlement-in-bounty-cases/ ProFootballTalk on NBCSports.com Sun, 19 May 2013 05:11:01 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: bigball1 http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/07/24/to-no-surprise-no-settlement-in-bounty-cases/#comment-1895336 Wed, 25 Jul 2012 00:09:07 +0000 http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=1070633#comment-1895336 In my view I truly believe Roger Goodell and the NFL could not have handle this bounty issue with the players any worse than they have. At every step it appears they are intent on inforcing penalty, not finding the truth. I can only think they have a backroom agenda none of us have any idea about.
That being said…I just read an article regarding the NFL and the ref’s and the loss of integrity in the game with the possible replacements. I’m starting to feel a little for the commissioner, there really is no peace in this job. Lawsuits, strikes and likely most of the NFL players dislike and distrust him…..except for the compensation, not exactly a dream job!

So…

The NFL- who suspended and then upheld the suspensions on appeal (which the merit of the process is debatable)- didn’t show up because they are obviously wrong for working through the process that was collectively bargained for…

and the players (only half of whom showed up) are definitely in the right, even though their most prevalent arguments are (and I’m paraphrasing here): 1) This process that we have minimally taken part in is a sham- even if a collectively bargained (and agreed to) sham- and 2) Goodell is a douche.

Yup, sounds about right
