biglukes Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 (edited) I'm a little confused as to how a suspension in terms of games would work for a GM. Edited March 21, 2012 by biglukes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not possible, Brees has an exclusive franchise tag that precludes teams from signing him in lieu of draft picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mountainwampus Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 So, why didn't Belicheat get suspended for spygate? Seems like that was at least equally unethical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I hate Billy Bellicheat, this is worse. I'm actually pleased the NFL came down hard. They needed to.

TheBrownBear Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Holy crap!!! That is some legit punishment there. Impressive. Love Goodell's management style, if not his overall vision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
