And you're choosing to disagree with 'em. Already posted this Quote Now IF PROVEN guilty of foul play, circumventing the protocols light thier ***** up. Fire, massive fines, take away picks!!!

Fire, massive fines, take away picks!!! Somebody LITERALLY got fired within 48 hours of the injury. For a league that takes its sweet time in making a decision in critical matters, that’s pretty fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s be realistic, the Buffalo game (not nationally televised) got a lot of run too. The NFL is a national brand in itself, its going to get run regardless.

And isn't Mcdaniel the final say on who goes on the field? depends on what they knew. I don't know much about this stuff either, I'd likely trust someone who is supposed to be an expert on the subject whose sole job it is to make that determination over some guys on Twitter, myself.

My guess is this was all decided behind closed doors and a fall guy was agreed upon by the NFL and NFLPA. if that were the case, I don't see the NFLPA challenging it at all.

Just because someone leaves a hospital doesn’t mean they’re fine. Kris Dielman didn't go to the hospital (or even get evaluated at all) prior to the flight, though. Not equivalent situations, really.

My perspective: if the NFLPA didn't at least participate in a show trial of it then there might be more rocks unturned with the relationship between the NFL and NFLPA. Part of the game is to each play a part of making theater of battling before reaching agreement so that the smallfolk don't get their pitchforks--turning away from the NFL. The small victories for the NFLPA are meant to keep puppets like Smith in power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dolphins doctors are supposed to be experts as well. The guy that was fired is not thought of as a better doctor just one that is not employed by the team. If the independent guy got it wrong, which something was wrong are he doesn't get fired, then the Dolphins guys should have gotten it right. The impendent guy can overrule and say a player can't play he can't overrule and say he can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
