Band of Merriman Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=txbi...t&type=lgns Hopefully he'll be able to get the suspension reduced by a game or 2.

While Lynch is no saint, Brandon Marshall had a way more checkered past and got his suspension reduced to a game. Either way, it's worth a shot. I think Lynch is going to have a monster year.
buffalopdc Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 The length of the suspension is absurd anyway. 3 games for a traffic infraction and a minor misdemeanor is too much. I hope that it is lowered to one game as that is what it should have been in the first place. The NFL's handing out of suspensions is totally arbitrary it is almost as bad as hockey. I would much rather them start some form of mentoring program for players or self improvement classes.

I think the suspension should stand - I am not sure how many games is the 'right number' but at some point he needs to get more than a slap on the wrist to help him stay out of trouble in the future
DieHardFan Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 Hope the timing will help push any suspension(s) later into the season. First three games are too crucial (to Bills and NFL pocketbook) to be without Lynch.
BillsGuyInMalta Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 This is pretty much standard. He'll get it reduced, its just a matter of how many games. I suspect the NFLPA will help him get it down to 1 game.
H2o Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 I figure they'll drop it down to 2 games. Either way, we got Freddy and Rhodes for a situation just as this

Ferchrissakes, he already said he's really sorry, and that he won't do it again. Now leave him alone.
