I'm talking about the information presented, not the source. The league's procedures are slanted to say the least.

The only thing he really said was that Ted Wells is not an independent investigator, and conducts slanted investigations. That's easy to believe.

Anyone catch this? http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/eye-on-football/25264613/richie-incognito-ted-wells-slanted-case-against-me-did-it-to-tom-brady Basically Richie Incognito doesn't think Ted Wells or Roger Goodell does things fairly. We knew this about Goodell. But Wells is not some "independent" investigator. Say what you will about Incognito, but I always thought he was unfairly treated. I think his whole case was a pile of crap. Anyways, I still think Brady is a cheater! But the process is certainly more than flawed. I wonder if Incognito's revealings will have any impact in the legal case for Brady?

Tom Brady told Harbaugh to check the rule book and that's exactly what Harbaugh did. This is Harbaugh's big middle finger to Brady. I would not be surprised if it happened.

Rams or Cardinals will push the Seahawks for the division title.

I don't see how kicking 20 balls in a game (5 FGs and 4 extra points, plus 10 kickoffs ... which is still a lot for most games) is a big deal. Kickers boot hundreds of kicks in practice the week leading up to a game, and they get rest before a game. Frankly, 33 yard FGs are not physically taxing - it's all mental. Add another 10 yards to that then you have leg strength starting to come into the equation. But overall I don't see 'kickers getting tired out' as a legitimate concern. Now if you have one kicker who is autoMattic but not that strong from beyond 48 yards (cough cough) then it might be worthwhile to have a 2nd "power" kicker on hand.

I predicted 4 games but surprised by the loss of picks and the fine. The timing of the suspension is good with the early bye and going into the Colts his first game back, minus the steelers in week 1. Hopefully the Pats start 1-3 and Brady is forever known as a cheater. I wonder if he'll say "screw it" and retire?

OMG read pages 5 - 7 and 90 - 93! Brady is a LOSER!

Glad to see the Wolf Pack will be back next season!

I noticed this also. To someone on the outside who is not familiar with the situation would probably say they believe him.

Belicheat is basically blaming "climate conditions" for the deflation of the footballs. Hasn't explained why the Colts footballs were not impacted by this!

Anyone watching this conference? It's all smoke and mirrors!

Yep, I can see the Patriots getting off clean. As long as the NFL makes money they don't care about this stuff, they just want it to go away.

I don't see how Tom Brady gets punished unless there is evidence he was involved or knew about it. Ultimately Belicheck is responsible. An appropriate punishment would be, in my opinion: 1. Suspended Belicheck from the NFL for 6 months effective IMMEDIATELY. This means he cannot be part of the Super Bowl ride, and will miss most of the off-season business. Any violations of this tack on an additional 6 months. This would be handled the same way Sean Payton was suspended = ZERO contact with the team. 2. Revoke the Patriots' top two draft picks. 3. Fine Bob Kraft 5 million USD. He too is responsible. 4. Place an asterisk (*) next to their win over the Colts last week. The Patriots are always trying sleazy ways to win, and we know they have done this many times in the past, they just got caught this time. They have a reputation of "cheaters." Lay down the hammer so they don't do it again, and send a message to everyone else.

I think he'll be fine. No one could fix Cutler in Chi. How does Trestman's style compare to Kubiak's?

Once a cheater always a cheater.

Been working out more recently but not looking forward to next week when the gym is slammed pack. Its good that those people are trying to make a change but let's be honest, most of them won't be there in mid January.

The new changes and clarity on punishment for domestic violence are a good thing. In reality they need to have a scale in place for all offenses, i.e., first DUI = x games suspended, second DUI = whatever, and so on. Some rulings are not consistent. Let's not kid ourselves; Rice got off easy. He should have gotten 4+ games, 8 at the most, but he got just 2. I know Rice is showing genuine remorse, and I know he won't do it again. But the league cannot tolerate this. The 6 game suspension for the first offense is a good start for the league.

But he owns it lol. I didn't think the league had jurisdiction over it but I guess they do.

From a business point of view, can the NBA ban Sterling from the NBA? That would be like Roger Goodell banning Steve Bisciotti from entering the castle or going to the stadium. He owns the team!

Win or lose, I have a lot of respect for the Texans' numbers in that list. All teams should strive to be like that.

I forgot it was Doss who broke up that fight right before a pre-season game. I guess this does surprise me a little then.

Is anyone really surprised about Doss?

I actually liked James Ihedigbo for run support, not so much in the passing game. If the Ravens can't replace him they should bring him back! He might not be that good but better than his replacement.
