The league has shown they don't mind going back several years to make their point, and they CERTAINLY don't mind being judge, jury, executioner Expand I couldn’t agree more. I’m not indicting Tomlin unless there is some type of evidence like a video from a phone or something. I also am very skeptical of anything James Harrison states a decade later, but if there is proof, the discipline committee needs to severely punish the Steelers, Tomlin, and so on. I know you didn’t say it, but for others who do not know the CBA well, it’s not Goodell anymore handing out discipline.

It occurred going on 10 years ago so I doubt the NFL will do anything about it. Expand The NFL is doing the same strategy with the Bengals spy gate. Let it sit for a few years until everyone forgets it then slap the Pats on the wrist. 1

Expand A 'written warning' placed in his record of employment? ? Many collective agreements allow for such discipline to be removed from the employee's record after a negotiated time period.

Bleeding Bills Blue Posted May 15, 2020 Posted May 15, 2020 Does he have a copy of a check? Or was it cash? How do you corroborate the story as true? How do you confirm the money came from ownership, or Tomlin?

Expand Whining is a sign of competitiveness. At least that is what they say about T*m Br*dy in Ta*pa B*y. Personally I think Harrison is channeling his inner Sammy Watkins.

TheCockSportif Posted May 15, 2020 Posted May 15, 2020 Maybe the envelope included a letter written in ransom note style (it read "I LoOk LikE OMAR EppS") and included a participation award for kicks. Harrison, if I recall, was such a huge fan of participation awards. 1

Could be wrong though. Expand if you trace the players/coaches involved or that made comments about it being normal - nearly every team in the league had some tie to a “big hit pool” type of system. a bounty to pay for a dirty hit with intent to injure is a far stretch from all the defenders throwing in “fines” for mistakes and getting payouts for the biggest hits of the week though.

Expand Not coincidentally there was a committee of three owners that determined Goodell’s compensation packages and recommended them to the full ownership board for approval. Those three were Rooney, Kraft and Mora.
