We all know how big of a blessing it is to be one city of 32 that have a NFL franchise in it thanks to our late owner Ralph Wilson & also to the new owners the Pegula's for keeping the team in B/lo ! We also know that owners & players alike are subject to rules within the NFL that hold them to a higher standard & accountability than other cooperations because of their popularity, visibility, & the bigger than life personna of being the best of the best in the athletic world .

 

With in the last few years we have seen what making a bad decision in the NFL can cost someone that has worked their entire life to become a part of the biggest sporting attractions in America . Names like Kareem Hunt, Reuben Foster, Ray Rice, & Greg Hardy to name a few that have either ruined their careers or have had their careers almost ruined by foolish decisions they have made .

 

The rules don't just apply to the players either it applies to ownership as well ! We here fans of the Bills have been very lucky in that the 2 owners of the Bills have been very highly regarded & not done anything to bring negative attention to the team, sure their have been bad decisions as far as firing coaches, (Wade Phillips) not bringing really good players back, (London Fletcher) & other things like that but nothing bad in a morality sense .

 

Recently the owner of the Panthers has stepped down because of things he had done to bring negative attention to the team in which he owned & he sold the team to avoid bringing shame to the franchise & him self along with some pressure from the NFL more than likely to do so .

 

I am wondering now with the latest scandal within the NFL ownership ranks being the latest world champion New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft if any one here thinks he will be pressured to move on from the team as to save face in the NFL ? Do you think the most recognizable, winningest franchise owner in the last 20+ years will be asked by Roger Goodell & other owners to get out of the NFL ?

 

What would be a punishment worthy of the crime ? Is his crime being looked at as the same or worse than Richardson's bad decisions ? Is alleged sexual harassment in the work place worse than solicitation for sex ? What say you ? 

 

 We all know these Billionaires can have most anything in life that they want but they have to live up to what the NFL sees as life worthy of being a NFL owner/player,  will this action by Kraft be enough for them to ask for his resignation in so many words when the investigation is concluded ? 

 

Or will this be over looked or kept out of the public eye so they can continue on in NE as they have for the last few decades ?  Also if they go onto win another SB with Kraft as the owner how will that be looked at & dissected in the media surrounding the most watched games on TV ? Will they just not show him in the luxury box during the game, how will this be handled by the NFL & the media that loves the game so much ?

 

I hope this post has a different angle than the others about Kraft if not i apologize !! I know there are others & if this is the same then they can block it or remove it as to not waste our time rehashing the same things .

If the girls that bopped him are underage he could be in for major trouble.

  It's a PR nightmare for the NFL if underage girls were in the same building never mind the same room.  People here seem to think that pleading ignorance will make all of Kraft's NFL problems go away and I doubt that very much.  First things first with Kraft going to court if the charges are not dropped with barely a slap on the wrist.  The public will never be convinced that a man capable of making several billion dollars over his lifetime had no idea of what he was doing

This was funny..

 

Anyway, as long as he stays out of Florida, he can't be arrested.  But he will show up to take a plea deal.  NFL will suspend him half a season or so.

1) His lawyers will deal with the court proceedings in he was just their for a tug.  

2) He owns property, goes to NFL Owners meetings and faces Miami every year.   (and his visits he friend Donald)  Also has opps to go to JAX and Tampa.

Something will happen to him because of this silly #metoo enviroment we are living in.

This isn't a #metoo issue. This is a forced sex slave issue.

Yeah well, if there is a warrant out for your arrest in Fla, you might want to skip the Fins game. 

 

Also, the police said it was unlikely that he would be able to enter a plea to the court in absentia.  So he will take a plea, pay a fine, do community service and that's it.  Same as countless johns before him.

The nfl may hide him this year as much as possible, but I don’t think too much will come of this...unless there’s some strange, underlying story we don’t know yet.

If I have to explain it you, you wouldn't understand.

Being a slave,  they are forced to work and said work is not necessarily voluntarily...
