Wayne Cubed Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 i dont think either result would be surprising. it will be interesting to see if the see it through, or come to a settlement early. theres really a lot of viable range on this one, depending on the judge, it seems. I wouldn't be surprised to see a settlement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PromoTheRobot Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 This whole thing is just another meaningless fiasco that will result in a lot of wasted time, millions of dollars spent and no justice served. Maybe they should just get him for tax evasion and be done with it. I'm tired of the NE circus act year in and year out. It's just another cat and mouse game played off the field. I would feel a lot better if we started whooping the snot out of them consistently on the scoreboard. Sigh.So let the Pats** cheat because it's too much bother to hold them accountable? That's what they bet on. I will never understand that mentality. I'm not tired of it, not one bit. J'accuse! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said it was going to be pretty tough to move it to Minn because they need a good reason to move it. "Because I'm Tom Brady" apparently didn't cut it. Then again: http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/07/29/nflpa-must-respond-to-nfl-lawsuit-by-august-13/ that confused me, tbh.

I get the liberal union guy thing but trying to convince him that the CBA was wrong even though the NFLPA agreed to it is hard one to sell.

I don't know if Berman would be more inclined to side with NE*; sorry if I sounded that way. I'm only saying that it hardly seems like a win for either side.

So the ny judge is more likely to side with the nflpa than the one they would have drawn in minn?essentially thats the possibility hes bringing up. the geography may lend itself to the selection of judges being more pro-union or pro-business, but that doesnt mean every single judge there fits the same bill. this sounds like its a guy that might be more apt to be pro-union based on just a very surface level glance that florio took. im sure we will hear a lot more about his history than just "clinton appointee" in the coming week.
