    Lynch can be an every down back, but the insurance is worth it. Look at AP, no one expected him to be out. Vikes still had one of the better run games in the league.

    Brady suspension has been thrown out by the court.

    Goodell, and anyone who ever believed that this horse**** case had any merit, I suppose you had fun while it lasted.

    It's an awful precedent, in concept, as this was a bed of the NFLPA's own choosing. I haven't read the full decision, but conceptually a Federal judge overruled a collectively-bargained labor agreement.

    You don't see how that could be problematic, especially outside of football?

    I'll try and catch up later and see if Berman narrowly-ruled on something he feels the NFL didn't follow as a part of its power which wouldn't invalidate the CBA, but I don't think most analysis was thinking this ahead of time.

    I see that the courts stepped in when Roger Goodell refused to be responsible, and suspended a player without a shred of evidence supporting his stance.

    I suppose there's not much chance of seeing "Roger Goodell resigns" next.

    I wish this court ruling came out before my Fantasy Football draft. :p

    I'm glad this case is closed.

    Good for Brady, but I think the Pats still lose their 1st Round Draft Pick.

    It's money, is what it is. Tom Brady simply brings too much money into the NFL. So long as he makes them gobs of cash, he can do no wrong.

    Huh? The NFL was the one trying to suspend him. An independent body, which stands to benefit zero from Brady's commercial appeal, exonerated him.

    I don't think there will be anymore players because most of the other publicized suspensions have typically involved video evidence and/or a police investigation. I mean, I don't think Aaron Hernandez or Ray Rice will be suing the NFL.

    Touche'.

    I couldn't resist naming another Pats player.

    I'm glad tonight is the final preseason game for both the Niners and Raiders. I don't expect the starters to play more than a quarter, although, from what I've seen Kaepernick looks like he and the offensive line still need a lot of practice.

    At this point, with how many 49ers are leaving the organization, will San Francisco have enough players to field a team? :p

    Ugh! Thanks for pouring salt in the wound as I was just looking forward to the start of the season as I feel the Niners have a really good chance of beating the Vikings in their first game.

    honestly i have no idea what to expect from the niners this year. overall expectations are obviously low but i think that might be a good thing, especially for kaep.

    It's not in my sports DNA to favor anything coming out of Boston, but this is wonderful.

    Is it safe to guess that the NFL's ego is deflated after today? :p
