"Come on Man"! 😉 So you did not intend forfeit as one option? What did it include? Let’s have some teasonableness and consider the options the commissioner laid out which includes lost picks, fines, suspensions and forfeits as possible punishments . It did not include that other nonsense you are throwing out there. It was absolutely reasonable to assume forfeit was on the table given your strong words and the reasonable happening in nfl circles. You should be more specific in the future if you are going to get all offended when you leave something open ended. You could have responded with “ I don’t agree with a forfeit but they should lose two first round picks” and clear up your vague statement. Come on man!!!!
GunnerBill Posted October 8, 2020 Posted October 8, 2020 If the Titans are the one team threatening the NFL season and it turns out after investigation it is because they failed to act appropriately in managing an outbreak then I would suspend their membership of the league, revoke their 3 wins and give those games to the teams they beat and give everyone still to play them a free victory. A further result of their suspension means 0 draft picks in the 2021 draft though I'd let them sign FAs and UDFAs. It is why they would never in reality let me administer a sports league. Because I am a regulator who actually believes in regulating. 4 4

This team has blatantly disregarded league rules in regards to COVID-19 and put many people at risk, both on and off the field, and they were sat down as a group in a team meeting and were briefed!" The Tennessee Titans were informed on Sept. 29 that in-person gatherings had been banned because of the organization's ongoing coronavirus outbreak, a league source told ESPN's Dan Graziano, meaning that the players' informal workouts the following day were unauthorized and a violation of the NFL's virus-related protocols. A group of Titans players held a workout at a Nashville school on Sept. 30, one day after the organization closed its facility. The Titans have had 23 positive tests for COVID-19 since Sept. 24, with another player testing positive for the virus Thursday, according to ESPN and reports." Screw what's fair. Whatever punishment the receive, regardless of how severe it may appear to some, is deserved. I know if I was playing against this team I would not want to take the chance of lining up or tackling. "Fair". Pfffftttttt..... yup. Fair was them following the rules that everyone else is. this isn’t bending slightly or a few chuckleheads... it was full scale organizational defiance that will cost the league money, players money and puts health at risk. it’s going to be a historic consequence. 3

Da webster guy Posted October 9, 2020 Posted October 9, 2020 8 hours ago, mattynh said: Unprecedented, all the other leagues are also dealing with Covid, which ones are using forfeits? I am obviously in the minority here....I don't want a free win, I want to earn them.....and I dont say that like I am part of the Bills, that is how I personally live my life. Well, looks like we are gettin the chance. These next two teams were the hottest in the league for most of the year last season would be ok to split wins, unbelievably great if we could sweep. Never thought i'd say this but Tuesday Night Football here come the Bills !

I think it’s wrist slaps and whacks with wet noodles for all Financial penalties are a joke. We hear $250k and think it’s devastating! A fortune! It’s a drop in the bucket, half of what a backup LB gets signed for mid-season. Crazy times...... 1

I think it’s wrist slaps and whacks with wet noodles for all Curious on your thoughts on a 2 game suspension for players who attended off campus practices. 2 games because they’ve had to reschedule two games. Granted that could be 30 players since it sounds like there were 3 positional practices. But that’s a different problem that needs a different solution all together.
