Justice Wins!!! US Appeals Court Rules Tom Brady A Cheater. Four Game Suspension Reinstated.



                                       Today US Law has showed us justice still exists. In a ruling that was surprising to some, not me of course, US Appeals court rules that Commissioner Goodell was 100% within the parameters of the contracts signed by both Brady and NFL owners to punish Brady for cheating or for really any violation for that matter.
                                       Brady now has essentially 3 options at this point,

  1. Appeal To The 2nd Circuit Appeals.
  2. Appeal To The Supreme Court.
  3. Admit He Cheated Publicly And Plead To Goodell For A Lesser Sentence.
Option one would be appealing to the rest of the judges in the circuit court, there is a total of 10, 3 of the judges just ruled in favor of the NFL. Brady would need 6 of the remaining 7 to agree to the appeal. The Supreme Court is very unlikely to hear this case so the first two options usually have a less than 3% chance of happening so if you are a gambler, don't bet on it. Seeing how Goodell already gave Brady his chance to do option 3, I think this will not be on the table again. So as it looks Brady will be punished for cheating after all.

WHY TOM BRADY AND THE PATRIOTS GOT OFF LIGHT FOR CHEATING



              Ok first off I am not going to pretend to be a Tom Brady fan, But I'm not what Patriot's fans call anyone who is not in support of Brady, a "HATER." I am simply expressing my UNCENSORED OPINION on this matter. Tom and the Patriots should be thankful that a 4 game suspension , loss of 2 draft picks, and a slap on the wrist fine was all they got. I know what you Brady supporters are saying, "Its too much he go the same suspension as Greg Hardy." Well they are wrong. Hardy got a 10 game suspension after being forced to sit for a year, a year alone was way too much. He should of got time served and a fine in all reality seeing how he was innocent in the US legal system. But we are not here to talk about that. We are here to talk about Brady. 

              The entire Patriots organization lost all credibility with this scandal. They have lied and tried to manipulate every aspect of this thing. I do not believe Brady needed to cheat against the Colts, I have my bet slip to prove it. I do not even think him deflating the balls helped them win I had the Pats destroying the Colts before and was not surprised when they did. But the fact remains Brady did have the balls deflated and it is cheating no matter how you try to defend him. Que Pat's fans "Wells report is bias, they have no proof." Well in US law destroying possible evidence (His Cell Phone) is Essentially Proof of guilt. According to US LAW "Spoilation of Evidence" in most cases is enough proof. 

"The theory of the spoliation inference is that when a party destroys evidence, it may be reasonable to infer that the party had "consciousness of guilt" or other motivation to avoid the evidence."

               So yes that is enough proof to uphold the suspension. But Brady just needs to admit he cheated and count his blessing. If the NFL was really as worried about the integrity of the game as it claims to be in this matter, then they should of corrected this right when it happened. In the NFL rule book itself the punishment handed to Brady is outlined to the T. But it should of and could of been much worse for the Patriots. According to NFL Rule 17 "Emergencies, Unfair Acts" Article 3 it clearly states what the full punishment should have been.

"PENALTIES FOR UNFAIR ACTS Article 3 The Commissioner’s powers under this Section 2 include the imposition of monetary fines and draft-choice forfeitures, suspension of persons involved in unfair acts, and, if appropriate, the reversal of a game’s result or the rescheduling of a game, either from the beginning or from the point at which the extraordinary act occurred. In the event of rescheduling a game, the Commissioner will be guided by the procedures specified in Rule 17, Section 1, Articles 5 through 11, above. In all cases, the Commissioner will conduct a full investigation, including the opportunity for hearings, use of game videotape, and any other procedure he deems appropriate." - NFL RULE 17

               I don't think they reversed the game because lets face it the Colts stood zero chance with or without cheating but the simple fact Brady did something against the rules here, Hence why he destroyed his phone in an attempted cover up. But he should just save face at this point admit it and be happy the commissioner didn't follow the rule to the T. The punishment is within reason and just in all aspects according to NFL rules that Brady agreed to follow. SO GET OVER IT BRADY CHEATED. LETS GET BACK TO FOOTBALL
