24 complaints of harassment NFL gives you 6 games. 
 

Bet on the NFL or smoke weed and gone for a year.

 

Makes no sense at all

What I think it does do though is set a pretty clear benchmark. Despite what Florio speculates I would be shocked if Goodell in the first big test of his new process that he has trumpeted as a great solution scraps the punishment and imposes say a full season. I can see the NFL appealing and Goodell increasing the suspension (possibly as far as doubling it) but I'd be surprised if he goes beyond that to be honest.

Because the public reaction will be "that is too low." 

Isn't the whole purpose of the third party process so that the NFL can wash their hands of this stuff.

Yes, I agree. I just think they will want to be seen to be tough.

Considering there isn’t any legal hurdles, not sure what more people want. If people are that upset at the ruling, stop supporting the NFL financially.

This gets parroted a lot and I don't get it. You don't need to be charged with a crime for your employer to fire or suspend you.

Pretty sure it’s been reported that the NFL will not repeal the decision. It’s purely why the NFL went third party here.
