And if he's right, the Dolphins owner should lose the team and the some heads should roll in East Rutherford, too.  Both teams should also lose draft picks.  Lastly, Flores should be come a very, very rich man.

I don't know if the Giants should be in trouble, I mean unless you interview minority candidates first something like this is bound to happen from time to time do to the rules.

All the Giants were doing was complying with the rules the NFL set up.  They should not be penalized for doing an interview the NFL forced them to do.  On the other hand Ross is in BIG trouble.  

 

I think an admission that your team went through the motions simply to comply with the rules should still come with a penalty; regardless of how one feels about the rule.

Congress is going to get involved if this isn't retracted quickly - you can't have an owner of an antitrust-exempt business, on which betting is now legal, paying coaches to lose.  This is EPIC.

 

1.   congress isn't going to mess with football.

 

2.  he is alleged to offer him to pay to tank, not that he did pay him to do so (in which case Flores could also be charged).

Why?

 

Would are his damages?  

 

Flores was happy to exist in the Dolphins cesspool (such as it was)  until he got canned---in fact, if he was hired by the Giants, he still wouldn't have said anything about it.  Now he screams bloody murder--and sues.

 

And if leagues are to get into the business of taking away teams that owners are tanking, when do the Sabres get taken?

Naive.

 

Ask the NBA about taking away teams from bad owners, it is not just about tanking, about violating the spirit of NFL rules and tampering with players/coaches.

 

Gugny is correct, Ross is in BIG, BIG trouble on many facets.

I get that it happens.  Admitting to it is just stupid, though.

The Bills just did that

Can he destroy Flores phone as well? That would be impressive 

Flores already released the text messages from BB.

 

It's worse if BB has messages from NYG/BUF telling him that daboll got the gig.

Old people simply should not be using Facebook or texting - they cannot do it.

 

Also, the Wigdor law firm is pretty well known for putting aggressive allegations into complaints in order to generate media attention - that's their MO.  Sometimes they've had to walk those allegations back, so we'll see how this plays out ultimately.

True, and I don’t believe it specifies such interviews must be done first. At least, I’ve never heard that mentioned. Teams should be able to hire who they want , who they believe is best for the job, and who they like the most.

Look up why Sterling lost his team.  Then get right back to us.

Terrible takes WEO.  There will be serious hell to pay if this isn't retracted.

Sounds like the Giants decided they were hiring Daboll before Flores was interviewed, Belichick finds out and texts the wrong Brian to congratulate him... Oops, my bad. I'm almost 70. Should have asked my grandkids how this magic pocket brain works.

 

You kidding me?  Genius Belichick move- destabilize a division rival, and get his team 2 comp picks for helping to crack this case wide open!

That's speculation.

 

They didn't interview any minority candidate before the offered the job to the (inside) guy they were going to hire all along?

This topic is OLD. A NEW topic should be started unless there is a very specific reason to revive this one.
